By: Maryanne Comaroto | - I can remember getting what for me was my first big break in my budding media career. I squealed with delight when the producer called from a popular syndicated radio show asking to interview me. My heart pounded, my mouth went dry ~ I had worked so hard and now it seemed things were about to unfold. I was ecstatic.

- Sustainable Relationships
By: Maryanne Comaroto | - If you have had a few relationships you know what I mean by sustainability, especially ones that have been a source of pain or suffering to some degree. (Some of which have compelled you to dispose of them by almost any means, organic or not.) But what of the ones you wish to keep, nurture and grow rather than watch die prematurely or unexpectedly?

- Top 10 Qualities Most People Want In Their Partners?
By: Maryanne Comaroto | - I heard the most evil thing the other day. My definition of evil is often flexible, lying somewhere in between totally heinous and completely ridiculous. This story falls in there--you decide for yourself.
My gal pal told me she read a book this guy wrote ( If I had one less scruple, I might tell you his name--for now, we'll call him something friendly, like Penile Supremacist...PS for short. Fine--forget that, let's just call him Jack. There! Who can argue with that?) So JACK made ...

- You Can't Handle The Truth"'¦
By: Maryanne Comaroto | - Many years ago, having been married a brief time, I came home after having had a strong, yet curious, experience. One I was both eager and frightened to tell my husband about, knowing what I had to say was considered a taboo subject. Eager, because I was the taboo-slaying Joan of Arc; frightened, because I had never seen a relationship work when two people dared utternever mind explorethe truth together.
True to my higher quest, I could not help but venture towards t ...

- Is Your Password Strong?
By: Maryanne Comaroto | - A very attractive single mom recently told me this story: She had met a man and felt sure he was the man of her dreams. There was a synchronicity about their meeting she could not ignore; the chemistry was electric and the sex, she said, was the best she had ever hadin her life, I might add. It had to be love, she gushed!
But she had a question for me. What do you think this means? The other day I emailed him after we made love to tell him I could still smell him, that my body was ...

- Bachelor's Bull Blog
By: Maryanne Comaroto | - I forced my adoring husband to watch The Bachelors last episode, not that either one of us had ever wasted our time watching it prior; we hadnt. For almost two hours I watched my husband alternately squirm and moan, shaking his head, muttering StupidStupid, and watched whats-his-face make a complete fool of himself and the two young women he dragged under the bus with him. It was like watching a porno moviewithout the sex. At one point I asked him if ...
