A marriage can seem like a lifetime, and it is certainly supposed to be. But we all know life doesn’t work out like that, and things change. Divorce can be an incredibly stressful and exhausting process but once you’ve got through the other side, when is the right time to start dating again?

Office romances are nearly always a bad idea. As the rather crude phrase puts it, ‘Never dip your nib in the office ink.’ It’s best to keep personal and professional lives as separate as possible, as they tend not to mix well.

“I can’t believe it,” my friend, Mickey said to me when the commercial first aired.

First dates are a nerve-racking business. You’re about to spend several hours with someone you barely know. You’re uncomfortably aware that this will be your only shot at impressing them.

The concept of courtship has been around since the beginning of time. It is built into our genetic make-up, from peacocks strutting about the lawns and parading their plumage, to knights serenading damsels with songs and poetry. Today, courtship manifests itself in the dating world. Going on dates is now an enormous part of the average singleton’s social calendar. There are so many avenues for meeting potential partners, from speed dating to online dating sites, and it’s no wonder that [...]

Long-distance relationships are difficult at the best of times, but if you have to be apart over the Christmas season, things couldn’t be harder.
