Here’s a great letter from a reader about a budding romance at work — a very common situation: I’m a huge fan of the Tao of Dating, (which I’ve read 2x now), and we’ve spoken a couple of times online. I’m writing to you because I’m in a situation that’s […]
Lately, women have been reporting on the proliferation of a peculiar creature in their neighborhoods. They say it’s hairy, communicates in grunts if at all, is always trying to gain their favor, doesn’t train very well, and tries to hump everything in sight. Yup – men are everywhere. But we’re […]
My definition of a bad boy is simple: he is a boy (as opposed to a man) who is bad for you in the long term. By bad I mean that overall, he will bring more pain to your life than joy. Don’t get me wrong: there will be some good times with the bad boy. That’s why women get involved with them. But the net result tends to be more pain than joy.
Here’s a letter I got today which really got me thinking: Hello Dr. Alex; I recently purchased your book, “The Tao of Dating for Men”, and read through the entire book in two days (could not put it down). I am going back now to read it in more depth […]
Little known fact: I went to high school in Los Angeles, so I’m kind of from Los Angeles. So when I found myself back in LA after a long hiatus, it was a bit of a homecoming. I looked forward to perpetually sunny climes, rollerblading on the boardwalk, and the […]
What compels me to write this article today is a recent trip to the Harvard-Yale Game festivities, reminding me of how smart, educated women routinely sabotage their own chances for romantic fulfillment.
As you already know, the title of the book for women is The Tao of Dating: The Smart Woman’s Guide to Being Absolutely Irresistible. But what if that just doesn’t suit someone? What if there’s a woman out there who frankly wants to be resistible? Well, that’s what this video’s […]
This video from Riga, Latvia is the first in a series that I made on my trip. They’re really quick, but if you apply the principle I talk about, you can radically transform your life – I kid thee not. The idea of projecting love may sound a bit foreign […]
Recently I’ve been noticing a spate of breakups amongst my female friends. Just last week I was having dinner with Katie on her birthday. She was coming off a 6-year relationship with her boyfriend Dustin. Katie’s 30; he was 41. You could tell that the breakup was still stinging […]
On Wednesday 15 July 2009, we finally had the much-anticipated reading at the world-infamous LA independent bookstore Book Soup. It was a full house, and the spirited audience had some fine questions ready for me. They also took care of the case of prosecco in very short order — impressive. […]
Finally, I’m joining the 21st century and using this whole newfangled video thing. Thrilling! This is a topic that is best illustrated visually, since that’s how those pernicious little beasties called fashion magazines inflict their damage. I rant about this in The Tao of Dating for Women fairly extensively — […]
The Phoenix has a new entry up. I’m so proud of her! She’s really putting the material to use. It was my goal to present the material in the book in such a way that the readers would actually implement it, so it’s tremendously gratifying when someone does that. My […]
