Introducing your boyfriend to your kids can be a challenge...

You thought dating was hard the first time? Here you are, single again, but this time with children. You finally meet someone you really, really like and want to introduce him to your kids. How do you go about it? What if your youngsters don't like him? What if he doesn't like them? What if it doesn't work out?

Before you even think about introducing your children to your new boyfriend, you need to have been dating for at least six months. No, I'm not crazy and neither are you. Didn't your last relationship end in divorce? You don't want that to happen again and you certainly don't want your children to go through that again. It takes at least six months to begin to really know a person. You don't want to introduce someone and one month later have to explain to your children why they don't see "Mike" anymore.

I would also advise that you let your ex-husband know you are introducing someone to your children. I find it's

A vital part of learning to love yourself is valuing your worth. Flock to the things that lift you higher and flee from that which brings you down, especially in love.

Chick flicks guys cannot stand!

Comedian Dave Chappelle once summed up the male-female dynamic perfectly with one line: "Men like nice cars because women like men with nice cars."

Absolutely, positively true. Virtually everything a guy does is somehow directly or indirectly meant to appeal to women. If one day it was proven that women were most attracted to men with one arm, I'd expect there to be a shocking rise in emergency room visits by guys who've "accidently" lost the ability to play patty-cake.

Guys are constantly trying to impress women. One of the subtle ways we attempt to influence women's opinions of us is though pop culture habits like movie choices, particularly during the initial courtship stage. It's not necessarily a red flag if a guy says that he loves "The Notebook," but that confession should make you turn your head and think, "Hmmm…this guy might just be trying to get in my pants." Here are some of the film titles that should make you say

Let's talk about sex, baby! Why? Because communication just might be the difference between a good night and an AMAZING night, according to a new study.

"Individuals who are more comfortable communicating about sex are both more likely to communicate pleasure during sexual encounters and experience greater sexual satisfaction," study researcher Elizabeth Babin, Ph.D., an expert on health communication at Cleveland State University in Ohio, tells HealthySELF.

In other words, according to the study, published in August in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, people who are comfortable talking and communicating about sex are likely to do so during the act, AND they're more likely to enjoy sex more than those who aren't comfortable talking about sex.

Babin explains that if you're shy or uncomfortable communicating about sexual issues, not only will that (obviously) reduce your

Celebrate National Singles Week with a New Attitude!

Posted by James Lane for BounceBack.com

This past Sunday kicked off National Singles Week. I know what you're thinking: Everyone already knows we are single, and we certainly know we are single, do we really need a whole week to reflect on it?!

There are over 100 million people in the United States who are single and unmarried, so you are definitely not alone, but maybe there is something to this lifestyle that we have never really thought about. We spend so much time going to bars, working out, eating healthy, and creating dating profiles, all in hopes of meeting that special someone; that person who will take us out of our single life slump.

But what I can't help but think, especially as a honoree of National Singles Week, is aren't there benefits to the single life?

Sure, you may not have someone to hold at night, but you also don't have someone to fight and nag with you during the day. You don't have to rely on someone. Or check with before
