Third-Date Pressure

March 2, 2010 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

We’re usually preoccupied with our own sweaty palms on the first date, that and deciding if there are sufficient sparks to merit a second. It’s not until well into that subsequent meeting that you get a chance to really feel out the chemistry. And should you be fortunate enough to make it to the third, well, you know what that means … Or do you?

What is it about date number three? Sure, it seems a little hasty. But as modern, emotionally enlightened, and sexually liberated singles, should we really be encumbered with waiting for a sense of imposed propriety?

If it’s a set of alleged social norms that motivate your timing, the answer is probably no. Your third meeting has no more intrinsic decency about it than the first or the tenth, and any time you impose artificial conventions on your date, you take away from the real magic that may be happening between you.

Men are especially vulnerable to feeling that some sort of advance is expected within a certain time frame, when the reality is, most women don’t mind the chance to wait and wish. Honestly, as long as we have some indication that you’re interested, it’s nice to not be the one putting on the brakes all the time. Good sex is better than immediate sex, and for that, we need a little time to want you.

That said, not everyone needs three dates to warm up. Depending on the nature of the attraction (and how long the lead-up to the first date) it might even be on the late side. If you’ve been pining for each other for years, for example, waiting through three nights of dinners and polite conversation seems a little mechanical.

There are some very good reasons for waiting before you take the plunge, not the least of which is giving the sexual tension a little time to flourish. Some people make connections faster than others — we’ve all had those instances when something ‘clicked’ within the first moments of conversation –but it’s certainly easier to avoid entanglements you’ll regret later if you give yourself some time to find out what you’re signing up for.

Never forget that there are health risks to consider — waiting gives you more time to take care of tests, protection, and birth control. And lastly, if you do think your latest interest is someone you’d like around on Saturday mornings as well as Friday nights, your partnership has more staying power if you delay the onset of physical intimacy. But none of that means anything if you’re only dating through an arbitrary waiting period.

When it comes down to it, what we really want to know is that the connection was so hot, so passionate, so right, that we both knew it was time. Somehow ticking off three dates or six months on your social calendar just doesn’t carry the same intensity. No one wants to feel like all your other dates or that your passion was motivated by anything other than, well, passion.

So sure, the third date is ok, though the tenth date is probably better. Don’t wait for anyone else to give you the thumbs up. Keep in mind that waiting a little longer than you’d like usually makes for better sex, fewer regrets, and a more lasting connection, but that waiting as long as you think you should is something else entirely.

End Relationships the Right Way

February 26, 2010 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

There’s no great way to put it. You had a go at being together, and it isn’t working out. It may be over, but you owe it to your nearly ex-partner (and yourself) to be considerate. Angry, indifferent, or bittersweet, there are certain codes of conduct that should apply to every parting of ways.

Don’t Wimp Out
If you’re on the aggressive side of a breakup, the very least you can do is show up. That means no emails, no voicemails, no letters, and absolutely, indisputably, and unequivocally, no text messages. Some purists like to extend this edict to rule out phone calls as well, but honestly, sometimes a simple call is easiest for both parties. Most of us don’t really need to stare into the eyes of our soon-to-be exes. Whichever execution you choose, breakups should at least have the potential to be a two-way conversation. And that’s really best for everyone because that single conversation may be the closest to closure either of you get.

Don’t Drag it Out
Once you know it’s over, don’t wait for the right moment. It will never happen. You might have saintly intentions in the short-term, but your procrastination will be twice as cruel once your partner realizes they were the only one manning the relationship in the end. Breakups are hard. Do it anyway. When there’s no turning back, a quick and decisive break is best for both of you.

Don’t Take Cheap Shots
You’ll leave them feeling lousy — not only for getting dumped, but for caring about such a jerk in the first place. It may seem like science fiction now, but some day you might appreciate a friendship with this person. At the very least, you don’t want any chance encounters to come to blows. But while humanity and compassion are perfectly viable reasons not to stoop so very low, the best reason is a selfish one. Whoever they are and whatever they’ve done, their flaws can’t excuse yours. You owe it to yourself to maintain your character. Regardless of the circumstances now, you cared about this person once. That’s yours, and one day you may want to remember that fondly.

Don’t Lie
Softening the blow with euphemisms may get you out of telling them about their halitosis, but laying blame where it doesn’t belong won’t cut it. For instance, don’t claim their thoughtlessness did them in, when it was really your steamy neighbor. They won’t understand why their most romantic overtures can’t win you back. While telling them their stories put you to sleep isn’t particularly helpful (someone else may find those snoozers fascinating), chalking up a split to their busy schedule won’t work either. Most of the reasons behind a breakup can be filed under information that doesn’t help anyone, but fiction is never the answer. Keep things vague if you must — just keep your sense of reality.

Don’t Condescend
Put your sensitivity to good use, but hold the pity. Do your S.O. the favor of letting them escape as a whole and undamaged person in your eyes. You very well may be the best thing that ever happened to them, but they don’t have to know that you know that. As with all breakup rules of conduct, the guiding principle here is that both parties are treated as independently loveable individuals who just aren’t going to work out together.

Don’t Rush a Friendship
Hopefully, the two of you part ways civilly and can put your knowledge of and respect for each other to use in a future friendship. Key word being future. Don’t confuse things by spending time together too soon. Even if you’re the exception — even if you’re really, truly, utterly certain you can handle it. The rebound friendship spells doom. You need at least three months apart before you can try building (or returning to) a platonic relationship. Give each other some space, then you can trust you’ve given your friendship a fair chance.

Jerry, Jerry!

February 12, 2010 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

You probably know him best from him trashy, guilty pleasure The Jerry Springer Show, but there’s a whole lot more to this double Aquarian (he has Sun and Mercury in the sign of the Water Bearer) than tabloid sleaze.

Thanks to a healthy mix of Gemini, Leo, Libra, and Aquarius, Springer had a successful political career long before dominating the daytime talk show world. In fact, he was the 56th mayor of Cincinnati, as well as a campaign aide to Robert F. Kennedy.

These days, he’s satisfying his Jupiter in Leo urges for celebrity. You can still catch Springer hosting TV programs across the pond in his native London, or on VH1′s Celebreality.

Valentine’s Survival Guide

February 11, 2010 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

For many singles, February 14 means facing down the longest 24 hours of the year. It’s easy to confuse ‘single’ with ‘alone,’ but single can really just mean open to new love. And alone doesn’t have to mean ‘lonely.’ Even if you’re not paired up this Valentine’s Day, you can still celebrate. Who says a day of love is only for couples? Besides, as many of them will tell you, the holiday is never quite what it’s cracked up to be. Singles have every right to enjoy Valentine’s Day — in their own special way. Here are five ideas:

1. Get Together With Other Singles

You’re hardly the only one on your own today, so why not form a united front? Host a gathering for your single friends, and if you’re feeling disinclined towards winged cherubs, keep the night free of reds and pinks. If you’d rather let someone else do the work, hit a singles bar. This doesn’t mean you’re desperate, it just means you want to have fun. Don’t get wrapped up in the idea of meeting someone special, and you won’t be disappointed. No pity parties either! Pretend it’s any other night.

2. Go on a Date… With Friends

Have dinner with close friends, and think about what you’d be missing if you were elsewhere. Many a Valentine’s have been wasted with transient sweethearts, and even long-term significant others aren’t likely to outlast your best buds. Even if you can’t be with your nearest and dearest, spend a night with people you enjoy. If that includes a couple or two, and you’re feeling generous, let them crash your intimate evening. They deserve to have a little fun, too. Just make sure they’re not the ‘lovey-dovey’ types, and that there’s at least one other single around.

3. Treat Yourself

Do something for yourself you wouldn’t normally do. Get thee to the spa for a facial and a massage — and don’t even think about feeling guilty about it. Your relationship with yourself is important, and you’re worth a splurge now and then. Pick up some flowers on the way home to help make your living space soothing and welcoming. If you can’t swing the spa today (they can get a little crowded this time of year), create your own. Invest in some sumptuous skincare products, and don’t forget the candlelit bath and the music. It can also be as simple as watching a marathon of your favorite TV shows on Tivo or indulging in your favorite meal — calories be damned!

4. Share the Love

It doesn’t have to be about sappiness and coupling at all. Let Valentine’s Day be an excuse to connect with the people you care about. When you send cards to your friends and family, you’re going to get more than a few smiles. Call an old friend out of the blue — in fact, call anyone you like (except exes — definitely no exes!). Simply expressing love can be tremendously fulfilling. It can also help strengthen those bonds, so don’t be surprised if you see a little love coming back your way. While you’re at it, use this day to send cards to casual acquaintances as well. There’s no harm in a little Valentine’s networking.

5. Make it Yours

Since retailers and couples seem to be bent on making this day crucial, go with it. Make Valentine’s a day you use for yourself, in whatever way you need it. Go to a bookstore and collect books on things you’ve always wanted to know, or just a little something to curl up with tonight. Treat yourself to some you-time at the gym, or get yourself that sweater you’ve been admiring. It’s a holiday. Why shouldn’t it be dedicated to you? Do something that you like so much it puts you right in the moment, where you are actually enjoying your own life.

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to trigger pressure, disappointment, or sadness. Look at it as a blessing, and no matter how you spend it, it’s only 24 hours long. Take it as you take all the days of your life — with love for yourself and others. Take it with gratitude. Happy Valentine’s Day to you!

Gift Giving by Sign

December 11, 2009 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

Still stuck on what to give your one-and-only? Look for insight in the stars! Here are a few gift ideas designed to bring out the best in those we love the most.

Sagittarius
Of all the signs of the Zodiac, The Archer is the supreme adventurer. They’re sure to appreciate any thrill you can throw their way. How about a climbing trip, hang gliding lessons, maybe a shiny new mountain bike? But thrills come in many forms. Don’t forget about new places (maybe a new restaurant or a trip to wine country), new books, movies or gadgets. One of the most wonderful things about choosing gifts for a Sagittarius is that they’re wide open to suggestions. So use your imagination – Sagittarians love to expand their horizons.

Capricorn
Often obsessed with work and craving order in their lives, Capricorns will generally be thrilled with any gift that accelerates their goals; an iPhone, the G1 or the latest software are all right up Capricorn’s ally. Gadgets specific to their profession or interests are also palatable. If you’re more interested in appealing to the Goat’s lighter side, you’re probably safe — most Capricorns have an ample supply of wit and flippancy and will appreciate humorous day calendars, comic movies, and even the more irreverent, tongue-in-cheek gestures. This is one case in which a gift card to a specialty store would also be well-received. Goats love to exercise their expertise and might be relieved to select precisely the most appropriate gift for themselves.

Aquarius
Drawn to the arts, your Aquarius probably gravitates toward the visual arts, music, dance or drama. Theatre tickets, paint sets or charcoals, a camera, CDs (or music lessons) and graphic design software are all possibilities that will set the Water Bearer’s creative powers churning. Aquarians are also characteristically philanthropic and are either passionate or have the potential to be passionate about charitable works and the advancement of the common good. You might suggest that the two of you volunteer some time for a cause this season. Working at a soup kitchen, a shelter or starting a toy drive can be more satisfying for an Aquarius than any number of material gifts, and you’ll probably find your bond strengthens in the process.

Pisces
Sensitive and thoughtful, the Pisces is moved by gestures and tenderness. The fish is also quite imaginative and is particularly talented in literature and art. Escapist by nature and protective of their solitary time, Pisces will almost always welcome a good book – especially if it’s light, fanciful and fictional. Your thoughtful gestures of time, attention and kind words will also be valued – just remember that a Pisces occasionally needs time alone, too. Whatever you choose, don’t be surprised if you’re out-gifted because Pisces can be very generous and they expect little in return. Don’t feel you need to compete with their thoughtfulness – your acknowledgement and appreciation is a gift in itself to the fish.

Aries
The Ram loves a challenge and craves direction for their intellectual energies as well as their frustrations. Consider gifts that can help channel the Arian drive to find solutions, like computer games and puzzles. A dirt biking trip or boxing lessons would be wonderful outlets for their restless fighting spirit (and they might help keep it directed elsewhere), and any adventure would be welcomed. Aries loves to exercise their wit, their tongue and their body. The first two needs, they are likely to take care of on their own, but you can help with the last by getting them a bicycle, roller blades or a gym membership. You might also aim to satisfy their need for exploration with adventurous gifts like scuba diving lessons, a helicopter ride or a back country camping trip.

Taurus
The Bull is fiercely independent and takes some time in deciding exactly what they want, mostly because it’s important to them that all relevant information is weighed carefully. These traits coupled with a love of shopping make Taureans excellent candidates for gift certificates. They are drawn to luxury and the material world, but watch their money carefully, so a blank check to a favorite store is a dream come true for the typical Taurus. If you have your heart set on choosing a more personal gift, remember that The Bull is passionate about nature, art, music and beauty. Music, paintings, concert tickets and all things aesthetically pleasing will win their heart. Really, it’s hard to go wrong when choosing for the Taurus – they love things, particularly fine things, so much so that jewelry, cashmere, chocolates and the latest iPod can all be equally satisfying. Just beware of the Bull’s expensive tastes. They’ll see through any attempt to scrimp and scrounge. Also fiercely sensual, a more intimate gift will be appreciated. But keep in mind that while deeply passionate, Taureans usually gravitate toward the traditional rather than the experimental.

Gemini
The energetic twins are always in need of new interests. Help your Gemini with new ideas for their restless energy, like new hobbies, games, classes or events. Just avoid anything time-consuming. The Twins will move onto new interests soon enough. Your Gemini is analytical and intellectual, and they have an appetite for knowledge that they can be somewhat lazy about satisfying. You might give them a nudge with a gift of books, a lecture series or class on topics of interest. The Twins love attention so they’ll lap up thoughtful gifts designed for them – or anything that is clear you put a lot of thought and energy into. Above all else, Gemini’s are childlike. Appeal to their playfulness with whimsical toys, electronics or anything that gives their child permission to reign free.

Cancer
Any crab needs a cozy shell, and the Cancer loves to adorn their home with items that are both decorative and comfortable. Contribute to the Cancer’s nest with decorative pillows or lamps, exotic bowls, carvings or candles. Their imaginative and romantic nature will respond to art, literature, movies and books. Ideal books are narrative rather than informative like fiction, classics, plays and even poetry. Sometimes, The Crab makes gift-giving quite simple. They like to align themselves with a cause, a hero or a team and probably have obsessions in politics or sports that are easy to identify. Cancers are givers and ask for little in return. Your presents (and your love) will certainly be well-received. In fact your biggest challenge this holiday may be watching that your generosity doesn’t embarrass your Cancer.

Leo
Leos are naturally creative, and they act on their fancies, so they’re likely to appreciate a creative gift – as long as it’s in good taste. Appeal to their creative nature with art sets, singing lessons or theatre tickets, or create a meaningful gift yourself. If you do plan an original creation, make sure it is crafted with love and meaning in mind – the Leo is savagely sensitive to stinginess. The Lion also loves children and will no doubt be delighted to help you plan gifts for all the young ones on your list. You might sponsor a child for the holidays or participate in a toy drive – it will spark the Leo’s sense of generosity and help indulge their playfulness. You might also leave this lover of pleasure purring with sensual gifts, massages or a day at the spa.

Virgo
The Virgo’s curiosity, analytical intelligence and love of language make books, travel and museum membership
s the ideal gift options. If you’re looking for something suggestive or intimate, literature may satisfy that need as well. A perfectionist and people-pleaser by nature, your Virgo will probably be open to books on lovemaking techniques or sensuality, as long as they don’t take it as criticism. The Virgin’s attention to detail usually yields a penchant for drawing, model-making or painting. If your Virgo has not explored these talents, your holiday gift of classes, supplies or instructional books might nudge them toward a rewarding hobby. If you’re a big spender, any trip to a major historical city will win you points.

Libra
The gentle Libra has a taste for beauty, harmony and closeness. Their love of music makes any gift in that vein a welcome choice. Although they are most appreciative of gifts that are personal and thought-out, maybe even hand-crafted. A music selection that is specifically compiled for your Libra (a new iPod with your special mix on it?) might resonate better than the pre-packaged variety. Tickets to a concert you can attend together may be better yet. In fact, any activity that the two of you can enjoy together is likely to strike a chord. You could also choose a gift that appeals to their love of beauty – just don’t try to decorate for a Libra! Home décor items like paintings and furniture are best left alone, as they have highly cultivated but very particular tastes.

Scorpio
If you were thinking of springing a gift card on a Scorpion this year, think again! The Scorpio thrives on emotion – on the fuel of their own emotions, the emotions of others toward them and the drive to have their emotions understood. Your gift should reflect your feelings for and intimate knowledge of this very sensitive personality. Consider their passions, talents and sense of humor to devise a gift that can’t be interpreted generically. If you don’t know your Scorpio all that well yet, present your gift in a way that leaves little doubt that they are important to you. Perhaps a surprise unveiling is in order or a special meeting at a romantic spot – maybe even the place where you first met. Because Scorpio can become preoccupied with their tumultuous emotions, a tasteful blank book or journal might be just what they need to channel that energy. Remember that Scorpio is the most sensual of the signs so while a thoughtful present can go a long way toward winning their heart; your passion is a gift that won’t go unappreciated.

Know Your Goddess: Bast

November 12, 2009 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

Powerful protectress and Ancient Egyptian Goddess of sensual pleasure, Bast is depicted as a slender woman with the head of a lion or desert sand cat.

She often holds a rattle in her right hand and a protective totem (which happens to be a kitty), in her left. Agile and lithe, she is the daughter of Isis and Osiris and also, the original catwoman, possessing the power to simultaneously attract and repel. And how appropriate…

With a name that means devouring lady, Bast beckons us to celebrate our seemingly discordant qualities.

As both the defender of the Pharaoh and a goddess of fertility, she symbolizes both strength and femininity, reminding us that a satisfying existence involves complexity. By following Bast’s feline example however, her message crystallizes. The way to nurture wholeness is by having fun.

Create room for playtime in your life. Seize the day and be the wild cat that you are – it doesn’t mean sacrificing productivity. As her wide-reaching areas of domain indicate, Bast is the mythological mistress of multitasking!

Play Dates by Sign

August 11, 2009 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

Try these delectable date ideas, inspired by the heavens and the astrological sign of your lover – or the object of your desire.

Libra
This gentle soul has a taste for beauty, communication and intimacy. Take a Libra on a picnic, or out for an evening under the stars. Outdoor concerts will satisfy a twofold longing for harmony – just don’t try to get by with anything that comes across as hasty, or too generic. A movie might be easy, but it’s not the best way to woo a Libra. If you take the time and energy to invest in a plan that is both meaningful and well thought-out – with some time set aside for real connection – you’ll find the Libra heart open… and welcoming.

Scorpio
It won’t be too difficult to discern a Scorpio’s preferences: they’re typically quite willing to make their likes and dislikes known. Plan an evening that proves you’ve been paying attention. The scorpion is deeply involved in the realm of emotions, and they’ll want you to be, as well. If the two of you are passionately in love, make a date that will give your lover an opportunity to express that emotion, and become thoroughly wrapped up in togetherness. If you’re still getting to know one another, try going dancing, or splashing around at the beach. And remember – Scorpio’s passion is highlighted in the bedroom, so don’t be surprised by where this all leads!

Sagittarius
This one’s in it for the thrill. Why not take your adventurous Sagittarius on a truly unforgettable date? Let the sky be the limit, as you look into climbing, hang-gliding, or bungee-jumping. And don’t forget about other types of novelty – check out a new Ethiopian restaurant, or go dancing at a trendy night spot you haven’t been to together – you might even go out to see a local band perform. Keep the Archer on their toes, while you both broaden your horizons.

Capricorn
Get that Goat away from work – and out on the town! This workaholic might seem like an unlikely candidate for a standup routine, but the Capricorn has surprisingly witty undercurrents, and a comedy club might be just what the two of you need to tap into that playfulness. But research your choice carefully! A stand-up standup will keep you both laughing for hours – a stale routine, however, won’t get past a Cap, whose self-critical eye can just as easily pick up on the shortcomings of others. You’d be hearing about that for the rest of the night

Aquarius
Brainy Aquarians have a serious artistic streak, so it’s hard to go wrong with dates that center on visual art, music, dance or drama. Go out to a museum, the opera or a theater. Don’t rule out small art openings, photography exhibits or underground bands. The Water-bearer’s open mind makes new experiences (even those that don’t fully deliver) worthwhile. Aquarians are also characteristically philanthropic, so you might check into charity benefits. Or tap into that intellect by going to a book signing!

Pisces
Try taking shy Pisces away from the crowds – maybe go on quiet hike, or spend some time in a beautiful meadow. Sensitive and thoughtful, Pisces is moved by gestures and tenderness, and is more than willing to recognize the effort you put into your plans, however simple they may be. That imaginative, escapist nature means that films and plays are good ideas as well – especially if they’re light, fanciful or fictional. Avoid dreary topics, at least at first. Aim to uplift and shelter this delicate personality, and you’re in for a delightful time with a soulful partner.

Aries
The Ram can’t resist a challenge, so try a walk on the edge. A dirt-biking trip or boxing lessons are sure to get that heart pounding. If you’re not a thrill-seeker yourself, try sticking to less dangerous dates that will still appeal to the fighter and the explorer in the Aries personality. Camping, bike-riding, and rollerblading are all good possibilities that are likely to leave you a little sore, rather than seriously injured! But only the truly courageous are willing to tackle the competitive Ram spirit. If you’ve got what it takes, you might try a board game or a tennis match. Just remember: the Aries is in it for the win.

Taurus
The Taurus gets a bad rap for being materialistic, but that reputation isn’t necessarily deserved. True, any Taurus will be drawn to the finer things in life, but this comes from a love of beauty, security and sensual pleasure – not base greed. Taking a Taurus shopping might bring a sparkle to their eye, but so would a walk in a beautiful garden, or a trip to the museum. In fact, a night home with a delectable home-cooked meal could be perfect, because your cooking will tickle that exquisite palate, and whet the Taurean appetite for the sensual pleasures that lie ahead.

Gemini
Whatever you do, don’t let these characters get bored – the twins are always in need of attention and stimulation. Introduce a Gemini to new ideas, new places and new skills in the form of concerts, games, clubs and classes. Don’t be disappointed if your Gemini doesn’t seem to take to your idea – after all, that attention is difficult to capture for long. The Twins also have an appetite for knowledge that they are sometimes lazy about satisfying. Don’t be afraid to drag them on thought-provoking dates to history museums and art openings – they’ll thank you for it, later. At least, they’ll mean to… before they get distracted again!

Cancer
The imaginative Cancer can be drawn out of that shell with a good plotline, so you might try taking in a play. Dance performances and sporting events are also good ideas – especially if you can score playoff tickets. Just don’t root for the other side, and risk making your Cancer defensive! Keep in mind that at heart the crab needs a lot of nurturing, and can have a weakness for romance. Handle with care, and don’t hold back on those sentimental gestures.

Leo
This is one sign that won’t resent an ambush. You might try a surprise: a big-ticket night at an unexpected time, for instance, will leave the Lion purring for more. Leos are naturally creative, so think art exhibits and concerts. Or appeal to that deeply sensual side with a stop at the day spa, followed by a dip in the hot springs. It’s hard to go wrong with a Leo: this good-natured soul will make any date a royally enjoyable experience.

Virgo
If you can coax your Virgo out of the captain’s chair for the evening, plan something especially thoughtful that proves you’ve been paying attention. Try a favorite restaurant, maybe followed by a documentary that will pique that Virgo curiosity. And don’t forget the details! Secure reservations, arrive early, and make sure the place is spotless before you bring them home. If you don’t hit every mark, however, fear not: a fierce perfectionist in their own habits, Virgins are people-pleasers by nature – so they are sure to appreciate your affection, and respond in kind.

7 Deadly Sins of Love

July 19, 2009 at 5:00 pm
By A. K. Boyle

When you first fell in love, they could do no wrong. Now that the butterflies have settled, it may be time to check for horns. Is your new love a gift from above, or a demon in disguise? Watch for these signs that your one and only has been hiding some seriously sinful flaws.

Vanity
Forget about the extra trips to the gym, or a few fervent glances in the mirror. A person’s pride in themselves becomes dangerous when they put appearances before the reality of your relationship. When they care what they look like to friends (or care what you look like to them), watch out!

Jealousy
This is a classic. The first time your beloved got a little huffy, you were flattered, but don’t be fooled! Jealousy and possessiveness are deadly for love. Unless those sentiments are justified (you can hardly blame them if you and your trainer are at it for more than side bends!), they’re telling signs of latent insecurity and a controlling nature. If they are envious of what your opposite-sex friends have with you, show them they have nothing to worry about. If your significant other can’t let it go, show your green monster to the door.

Lust
Okay, so a certain amount of lust in a lover is good – as long as it’s for you, of course. It’s when touching trumps talking that you have a problem. Make sure your lovemaking has a fair share of love in it. And if your lover’s lustful gaze is falling on anyone else’s goods, beware! It’s high time to wish them a lusty farewell.

Gluttony
Do you catch them taking the bigger piece of cake for themselves? Do they put their satisfaction in the bedroom over yours? These are telling signs that your lover is a glutton at heart. While there’s no harm in falling for a foodie, don’t waste your time with a partner who takes the give out of “give and take”!

Wrath
Some sins can be forgiven. A nuclear temper is a deal-breaker. It usually starts out small – an unexpected blow-up followed by a hasty apology – and escalates from there. This is a sin that’s hard to conceal. Watch for early signs of a hidden temper. (The way they deal with family and friends will give you excellent clues.)

Avarice
So your dearest gripes a little over the checkbook and watches cash flow when you’re out. No big deal, right? Those long hours at work are an investment in the future. Don’t let those dollar signs blind you to a serious character flaw. A little scrimping and scrounging is only sensible (though not over an $8 drink). When money is everything, though, love doesn’t have a chance.

Sloth
Sloth isn’t just sinful, it’s wickedly unattractive. This tenet of inconsideration has a number of tells: they leave you with the dishes, decorate your living room with laundry, and leave dinner to you while they tune into an Xbox or a fashion special on TV. Don’t settle for selfishness and mess!

Love is hard work. If your love can’t put in the time and energy, you shouldn’t be wasting yours.

Is your relationship on the right track? Let a psychic guide you in a reading today. Call 1.800.573.4830 or click here now.
