GENDER ROLES: Do Women Really Want To Be Equals When It Comes To Dating and Relationships
Equality is defined the state of being equal, especially in status, rights, and opportunities. Equal is further defined as being the same in quantity, size, degree, or value and having the ability or resources to meet (a challenge). Women want to be considered equal to men. They want the same status, rights, and opportunities. I agree that they should be. But when it comes to dating and relationships, many women do not want to be equals. They want to maintain these gender roles. They just won’t admit it because theyRead More
WHY WON’T YOU LET HIM LEAD?
As a dating coach for smart, strong, successful women, I spend a LOT of time talking to women on the phone about their love lives.

I have two beautiful kids that are well mannered (for the most part), make good grades and have (relatively) normal friends. Most of my friends would consider me an “alpha” male, in that I tend to make decisions easily and don’t mind being aggressive when necessary. Men aren’t complicated. I knowRead More
Dear CRF, Is This a Sign?
Dear CRF, “I have a friend who has had hard times and whenever I compliment [him] or make reference to how great [he is], it turns into an argument. Just want the best for [him]. But it’s becoming verbal abuse. Is that a sign of an emotionally unavailable person?” CRF RESPONSE: I am sorry you are going through this with your “friend” (using that word loosely because this doesn’t seem like a friendship at all). It is admirable that you have taken into account the difficult time your friend hasRead More
