1) What's your best advice for a man how to dress on the first date?
Asked by Chip R. from North Star, DE

This actually depends on where you are going for your first date and your personal style. If you are going to a movie, to a friend's house, bowling, or anything along those lines just wear jeans and a casual shirt. You want to look nice, but not too dressy. If you are going out to dinner you can either wear jeans and a casual shirt or dress pants and a dress shirt. As long as you are comfortable, and aren't wearing dirty jeans and an old ripped Rolling Stones T-shirt on the first date you should be okay.

No matter the location it is important that you don't change your style just to impress a woman. We want to get to know the real you rather than the "you" that you think will impress us.

2) Do you ever wish you could pee while standing up?
Asked by Alex C. from Cortez, CO

I only wish this when I am drunk with male friends, and I am the only one who can't write my name in the snow. For the most part, however, I am not upset at all that I have to sit while I pee. Sitting down really takes no extra effort, and I would much rather take an extra 2 seconds to sit than to pee where everyone in the bathroom can see me.

3) Should I feel like less of a man in my spouse makes more per year than I do?
Asked by Orlando M. from Houston, TX

There is absolutely no reason for you to feel like less of a man because of your wife's salary! Men and women are on equal playing ground in the work force now. It doesn't matter if the career your wife chose has a higher annual income than the career you chose for yourself. When you are in a marriage it doesn't matter so much what each individual makes annually. What matters is that your combined income is enough that your family is comfortable. If you two aren't struggling on a monthly basis then it really doesn't matter which of you makes more.

4) My wife sometimes forgets to put her journal away when heading to bed. Is it okay to take a sneak peek?
Asked by Ben K. from Charleston, SC

No, Ben, it is not okay for you to peek at your wife's journal. She leaves it out because she doesn't feel that it is necessary to have to hide it from you because she trusts you. It would be very disrespectful and hurtful for you to take advantage of that trust. If there was anything worth hiding from you then I highly doubt she would leave it out anyway. A woman's journal isn't about writing down all of her dirty little secrets. When we keep journals it is because we want to be able to express our feelings, vent about things that happened today that we don't want to burden you with, and big events that we want to remember to the minute detail later down the road.

5) I bought my girlfriend lingerie as a present and she became very upset about it. I didn't mean it to "sexualize," her, I just thought it would be fun to spice things up. What did I do wrong?
Asked by Andrew A. from Little Rock, AR

It is not that you did anything wrong. It sounds like your girlfriend is very sensitive about things of that nature, which could be the result of a past experience, her upbringing, or many other reasons. There are women out there that would love to receive lingerie, and there are other women that find it offensive. It is best to find out how your girlfriend feels about receiving gifts like that before you get them for her. A woman should never feel as if she is a sexual object, and she shouldn't think that way when in a relationship.

6) I've been dating this girl for 5 weeks. She has said that she loves me several times. Every time she does, I try to change the subject quickly because I'm just not feeling that deeply yet. I want to keep dating her, but I'm running out of distractions. Any advice?
Asked by Elmore Y. from El Paso, NM

The most important thing is that you should never tell her that you love her just to make her happy. Only say "I love you" if you truly mean it. It is weird that she is so persistant to tell you that she loves you when you do not say it back. You shouldn't feel pressured to say "I love you" back to her even if she says it to you. You can always say "I like you a lot", "I like you too", or something of that nature. This will let her know that you understand what she said (rather than changing the subject in a panic), and that you have feelings for her but aren't in love yet. If she gets upset that you don't tell her you love her soon simply have a nice, heartfelt conversation with her. You may like her a lot, but you aren't feeling love yet. You want to be with her, and you don't want to rush anything.

7) I just met this amazing girl at a party yesterday. She gave me her number and I would like to call her back and set up another date. The problem is I don't want to seem too desperate. How long do I need to delay?
Asked by Arnold D. from North Hollywood, CA

If a woman gives you her number she wants you to call her. As long as you don't call her the same night that you receive her number you will be okay. Call her back the next Wednesday or Thursday to set up a date for the following weekend. If you wait too long to call her she will think that you aren't interested and move on.
