Question from Emily O.: I’ve noticed on a lot chat or IM apps, one of the first things guys ask for is a picture of yourself, even if you have a profile photo displayed or albums filled with photos. It seems like “Can you send a pic,” is the norm now? Why is that? And why will some even write you off completely if you’re not willing to send a photo right away? I’m not comfortable sending pictures of myself to strangers only 2 minutes into a conversation.

A little Googling never hurt anybody. Kristin Cavallari revealed that she searched the web and looked up some pictures before meeting her husband Jay Cutler back in 2010. According to UsMagazine.com, the Chicago Bears football player originally reached out to her publicist to set up a date in 2009. At first she denied, but then the following year, when she was in Chicago, her rep got Cavallari passes to meet Cutler after one of his games.“My cousin was a huge Bears fan, and he was like, ‘You have to meet him.’ I didn’t think anything was going to come of it for me. I thought I was going to make my cousin’s life,” she said. “I had Googled pictures of him, and I was like, ‘Eh, you know, whatever.’ He walked in, and I was like, ‘Whoa, he’s so much cuter in person.’ He’s almost six-four, big, manly.” They’ve been a celebrity couple ever since and have three kids together!
This celebrity news has us wondering about first impressions. What are some ways to make a good impression on your crush?
For some of us, political points of view are the ‘bottom line’, the test against which we measure compatibility with another person. Don’t believe me? A poll by Wishbone concluded that 47% out of 10,000 respondents said they wouldn’t date someone with different political views.
This tells us clearly that many would rather avoid the issues that come with different political beliefs and also confirms why so many people marry or date within a specific cultural or religious community.

There she is standing at the bar. Tall. Beautiful. Long flowing blonde hair. Think. Think. There must be a pickup line that will work… Okay, I’ve got it!

There is nothing worse than being in a relationship with a “taker.” I’ve been down this road before and let me tell you, it’s a pretty challenging battle to win. First off, takers never think they’re takers. They don’t see their behavior at all. As a matter of fact, they think what they’re doing is okay. I was once with a woman that was not affectionate at all. For those of you who have read the Five Love Languages, my love language equals words of affirmation and physical touch.

When viewers tune into HGTV’s Fixer Uppers each week, many wonder how TV hosts and real-life celebrity couple Chip and Joana Gaines manage to balance their personal life and professional careers.

Question from Natalie L.: I was seeing a guy a while ago. It didn’t work out in the end since he was too immature, but during the brief relationship he said something that stands out in my mind today.
