#Whatsthe411: Signs your guy might be too high maintenance

Are you freaked out by your fella’s excessive grooming, supersappy side, and other prissy behavior? He may be a member of a new breed of not-so-manly men.

  • He checks himself out in store windows as he walks past.
  • He has self-help books by his bedside.
  • You confront him about his highlights, and he swears it was the work of the sun.
  • When he has a can’t-miss-it-zit, he cancels your plans to go out and asks if you’ll just spend a quiet evening in.
  • He has a 300-thread-count bed-linens set… that his mom didn’t buy.
  • He uses emoticons in his e-mails. 😉
  • He has a breed of dog that starts with the word teacup or toy.
  • He’s picky about which underwear goes with what pants.
  • These words have actually excited his mouth: “Shoot, I chipped a nail.”
  • You both frequent the department store skin-care counter for free samples.
  • When you’re having dinner out, he requests his salad dressing on the side.

The upside to these signs are at least your guy likes to take care of himself. LOL!!

Learning To Love Ourselves

Learning To Love Ourselves

The struggle is real. I don’t think I am alone when I say I beat myself up about stupid things all day long. But what if we could quiet the voices, and love ourselves, without judgement? I recently stumbled upon a passage in a book that helped with that. Let me share it with you.…
