Follow That Single! - P.D.A (Public Displays of Accusations)

Holding on to animosity after a bad divorce is counterproductive.  It will hinder the healing process even more if one chooses to do it publicly.  For these celebrities some are just getting started and others are absolute pros at the verbal uppercuts.


Christie Brinkley – Tears On My Pillow, Pain In My *** 
Christie is no stranger to divorce however, her divorce from Peter Cook is like a tennis match filled with full serve anger.   These two have been divorced for four years, yet the bickering continues.  If this is what they are like during television interviews can you imagine what took place when they were home alone?  Regardless of who is right and who is wrong, divorce is a definite sign that these two need to let go and give peace a chance.


Elisabeth Moss – Bash and Be Done
The Mad Men actress discussed her true feelings for her ex-husband Saturday Night Live cast member Fred Armisen in Page Six magazine.  Her exact words,
“It’s so hard to talk about, one of the great things I heard someone say about him is, ‘He’s so great at doing impersonations. But the greatest impersonation he does is that of a normal person.’ To me, that sums it up.”
The actress vented and then claimed that was all she would say on the subject of her ex.  No one really knows if she was speaking ill of Fred to warn other women or if she was just ready to get it off her chest and move on.  Let’s hope he doesn’t retaliate or this could get really ugly.


Deion Sanders – $200 Million Reasons to Divorce
Deion’s estranged wife Pilar has filed suit against Deion and his daughter Deiondra in the amount of $200 million claiming “emotional weapons” including humiliation, intimidation, and threats.  Deiondra had a twitter outburst and her Daddy took to the radio to call his ex really nasty names.  This is really getting messy and before the documents are signed the madness will get worse.

Follow That Single! Out With The Old and On To The Next

Spring Fever is not only the time for springing into new relationships, it’s also time to do a little spring cleaning and these celebrities are doing just that by breaking a few hearts.

Samantha Ronson & Erin Foster
The British DJ and former girlfriend of Lindsay Lohan is splitting from her girlfriend of 9 months.  Erin wanted to settle down and get married.  Ronson clearly wasn’t going for that!


Shaquille O’Neal & Nikki “Hoopz” Alexander
These two hung in there a lot longer than expected, but on his 40th birthday Shaq showed up at his birthday party with a new lady love.  How did he break the news to Hoopz?  Well she was escorted out of his home by security.  Hot Freaking Mess!!!  Ladies let this be a lesson to you an “open” relationship is just that open to you getting let go in a foul way.






Fantasia & Antwaun Cook
Antwaun has being straddling two women for quite a while.  His wife Paula Cook was seeking to sue Fantasia for adultery.  Instead of both of them kicking him to the curb and moving on to better men, Fantasia got pregnant, and the wife took him back.  I wish I could say that this relationship is completely over, but I doubt it.

The Mix: Online Dating - Romance Scams

The appeal of online dating sites is the implicit promise that they will do all the work when it comes to finding you suitable companions.  Rely on your instincts and common sense, if you decide to try an internet dating service.  Play detective.  Only use sites that are reputable, read customer reviews, talk to friends or family that have tried dating via the web.  Use the internet to do a background search on the people you connect with before the date.  Adequate research reduces the chance that your bank account will be drained and your heart broken.  If you want to date online, but aren't sure what or how contact me for a complimentary consultation datingcocktails@sprint.blackberry.net or sign up for the Ga Ga for Google: How to Protect Yourself from Romance Scams Course. 

Follow That Single! Spring Fever – New Couplings

Spring Fever has definitely begun for these singles!!!

Bobbi Kristina Houston & Nicholas Gordon
Whether you like or dislike this latest coupling, the fact of the matter is Bobbi Kris is 18 and after the loss of her mother (Whitney Houston) one thing is for certain that she is being consoled by someone who cares for her.  And in the end that is all that matters.




Kaley Cuoco & A Mystery Beau
Newly un-engaged from fiancé Josh Resnick, the Big Bang Theory star, has moved on swiftly to a new beau.  The two were spotted out at the Bardot nightclub in Hollywood on St. Patrick’s Day.









Eddie Murphy & Toni Braxton
Even though this romance started four months ago the rest of us are just now getting wind of it.  The two insist they are just friends, but my hopes are that Eddie can help Toni get her groove back musically!

The Mix: Savor the Dating Process


I heard something recently that resonated with me: “what I love about my age is the peacefulness” particularly poignant for me at this point in my single life is the fact that I don’t feel like I have to be married to be happy.  Without a doubt, I have always considered marriage an option, but I have not found a partner willing to do the pre-work.  I look at the dating process as pre-work.  This is where many people get significant signs if they are headed for bliss or disappointment.

I decided to start my business in an attempt to teach other singles the value and enjoyment of a fulfilling social/dating life.  When you fall-in-love with someone sometimes it’s hard to look at the situation in a realistic perspective.  I hope more than anything that my clients can look back at their failed relationships and respect the choices they made.  Even the misguided ones and understand the reasons why the relationship failed and then make wise decisions.   Remember, not everyone you date is meant to be your spouse.

As busy people rushing from one responsibility to the next, we have to remember not to let our hearts lead us blindly into a bad relationship.  When I hear people talk about a new love interest, they are so caught up in the moment that they speak of the good and refuse to acknowledge the bad.  Love has two faces – Reality/Fantasy.  More often than not, people focus on the fantasy, and ignore the price they will have to pay for it.  Instead, listen to your intuition, clear your mind of the hugs and kisses, and savor the dating process for what it is intended to be -- the best tool for cultivating great relationships and weeding out the bad ones!
