I’ve been seeing someone now for about 4 months. When will I know if he is the one or not?
Hi Molly,
Thank you for your question; it is a great and frequent one. I always say that there is no science to knowing when that someone becomes simply that ‘one’. People get caught up in the timing and the exact feeling. The bottom line is, when you know, you know and it shouldn’t take too long. To be honest Molly, if you’re not feeling it after 4 months, I doubt you will after 5 or 6.

I’ve been dating a guy for 2 months and I really like him. How do I test the waters with the talk of marriage?
Hi Robyn,
Thank you for your question; it is one I have heard quite often since moving to LA. I personally am against all talks of marriage within the first year of dating someone. The only exception would be if it were something you both obviously wanted to do and mutually discussed in unison. Otherwise, if the subject is weighing on your mind and has not been mentioned, chances are it’s not weighing on his mind. Why do you feel the need to discuss this after 2 months? I think you might be focusing prematurely on the thought of ‘marriage’ and losing sight of figuring out whether you really like the relationship you are in. If you do and everything moves along well, the rest will follow naturally.

How long do I wait before I call a woman back after a first date?
Hi Jack,
This is a love-hate question for me. I love it because it takes us all back to the playground and I hate it because I thoroughly oppose all game-playing! The simple answer is, call when you feel you want to call. Don’t over analyze what she might think. Women like attention, we like that you built up the courage to call and acted like it was nothing. Let her smile to herself and wait a few hours before she calls you back, she feels in control and you’ve made her smile without realizing it. Don’t wait!
