7 Deadly Sins of Drinking on a Night Out
It’s hard to admit, but we have a drinking problem here in UK.

“Do I Love Him?” 25 Signs You’re In Love (And not just infatuated)
Sometimes it’s easy to doubt your feelings. When it comes to your love relationship, you might be wondering: “Do I love him?” Is He The One? Sometimes it happens right at the very start. You meet a guy and you just click. And you think right away, I’m falling in love. Other times, you might […]
What Every Woman Needs to Know From You
One thing every woman is secretly afraid of, especially on a biological level is meeting a man who wants one thing only, then nothing else to do with her. Consider the biological consequences of that during the caveman years: a woman meets a man (perhaps named Ugh), they hookup, and he goes off to do that with another cavewoman. What happens to […]
Why It Is REALLY All Your Fault
I have, for a very long time, subscribed to the philosophy of “whatever happens, no matter how bad, it’s all your fault.” This is a little shocking to some people who believe that things happen that are 100% beyond your control, but when you dig into the mindset behind it, you understand why it is a […]

If it didn’t work out, it was HIS fault because he’s […]
Why You Should Never Settle for Minimum Standards
Decades ago, when a woman was asked about what kind of man she’d like to meet, she’d say a doctor or a lawyer or some other kind of accomplished man. She’d list the attributes she wanted in him, things like smart, funny, ambitious, stable, etc. Today when you ask a woman about what kind of man she’d like […]
Talk, Talk, Talk? | Loveawake.com blog
Talkers talk a lot (especially about themselves), but when you examine their actions, you find they do little, and talk to cover that up. Interestingly, though, when it comes to attraction, some of the best doers also talk a lot…but not in the way talkers do. When it comes to women, if you wish to attract them, you have to talk […]
