Sometimes, taking compliments can be oddly hard. You don’t want to sound rude, but you also don’t want to sound arrogant or assuming. Like when someone says, “WOW, you look great, have you lost weight?” And you’re like “WHAT? NO WAY I’M MASSIVE, YOU’RE THE ONE WHO LOOKS AMAZING.” It’s silly, really, because we should […]
why the long face? After last month’s Sexy Summer Slim Down series, we realized that even more important than getting your body in prime dating shape, is getting your mind in prime dating shape. Just as a 6-months-preggers-except-nope-I’m-not tummy can ruin your chances with a sexy single, so can having an unfit, not-so-healthy dating attitude. […]
As the southwest starts to move from a damp, gloomy spring into a steamy, glorious summer (we had 85 degree heat a couple days ago!), we’re hitting the fitness train extra hard. We know that in a few short weeks it’ll be too hot to hide our beer-bellies under baggy sweaters, so we’re following our […]
It’s no secret: we’re pro-casual dating. We’re down with hooking up on the first date as long as its done safely. We don’t mind the occasional one-night stand, and know that a friends with benefits situation is one of the most fun things a single guy or gal can experience! On the other hand, though, […]
Call us hypocrites, but that PETA ad got us thinking: we SHOULD be eating more fruits and vegetables this year. We’re stationed in San Diego, which makes it crazy easy to live on burritos, beachside burgers, and craft beers, but a diet like that isn’t great for your heart, brain, or let’s face it – […]
Tax time has just passed, and for some of us, that means HOORAY! A TAX RETURN! But for others it means, seriously, you took MORE of my money? Whatever category you’re in, however, Spring is a time to start saving your greenbacks. Whether you want to save up for a sweet Summer vacation (and get […]
ANNNND we’re back. How were things in normal land this weekend? Anything exciting happen? Did you try a really great panini? Or maybe catch the matinee of The Croods? Cool beans, buddy! The Coachella high is finally starting to wear off this Tuesday and although I wish I could be on vacation forever, it’s time […]
SXSW is in full swing in Austin, TX, and while we’re not there, we’re keeping updated on the news and stories coming to us from what is actually south by southEAST from us. It’s been fairly unexciting for the first few days of the geekfest, but there was one story that caught our attention: a […]
TALK ABOUT A BONER KILLER. In a blog post for Ebony, a young woman tells a story of meeting a great guy on vacation in the Bahamas, falling for him, dating for six months, and then upon bringing him to meet her parents, finding out that HE WAS HER HALF-BROTHER. We cut through the crowd […]
One of the best parts about casually dating, as opposed to entangling yourself in a long term relationship, is that you don’t have to do all the traditional, annoying gestures that make relationships lame. Like Valentine’s Day. Or paying for your date’s filet mignon just because you really want to have sex with them. Instead, […]
