Patti Stanger: The Queen of “for those who can’t do, teach”


Unfortunately, DailyCandy has made their video’s embeddable on other sites. So unless some technological wizard (or some super sexy nerd-in the ironic sense-computer genius) comes down from above and shows me how to get this video, I will just have to share with you the link to today’s DailyCandy email featuring none other than Patti Stanger. Miss Stanger, who we all know and love from her Bravo show, Millionaire Matchmaker, is also as we know, unlucky in love. GURLLLLLL…I can relate.

But, watch in the link below as Patti NAILS the ways to improve one girl’s Match.com profile (ok…there are a few things I disagree with! ladies, you are really going and getting professional blowouts and makeup done for your online dating profiles? No. Just No!) and what to look out for. And don’t say I didn’t warn you when you go and look at your own and realize that’s why you haven’t been getting any dates…or only replies from actor/bartender/dog walkers!

Patti Stanger’s Online Dating Tips

The Panic Button

Have you missed me? Have you been checking and rechecking my blog wondering where I went? Hoping to know if I was still sad and single (I can assure you I am!)? Have you been lost without my ramblings of singledom to get you through your days? Well, I’m back! And I apologize most loyal fans (cough, friends that I guilt into reading, cough)…for I never meant to make you feel like the girl who just texted a guy and is then sitting and staring at her phone wondering, “Why did you do that, Stupid?!” Continue reading

#SingleGalsUnite

You know me. (And if you don’t by now, you haven’t really been paying much attention to like my past 50 posts…they are still here…read on!) So, you should know that I welcome any single ladies (oh Beyonce…that song just won’t get out of my head, will it?) that want to join in the telling of their single tales…. Continue reading

Hair Today, Gone To….a Great Cause.

So I’m sure you have noticed that I haven’t posted in a while. Well, I have been recovering from surgery…I’m fine. Just not leading the swinging single life as I’m used to. And I can promise you that all of these tv shows that promise you McDreamy, McSteamy, McHot Male Nurse, and McGeorge Clooney before he became uber famous, are a big fat lie. I did not fall in love with any doctors, nurses, orderlies, lab techs, other patients, etc. It was very unromantic as surgeries go…and I guess normal.

I don't recall anyone that looked like that...even under anesthetics!

But something that happens after you go through surgery and feeling shitty, is that you want a change. Something that you can actually see. And feel good about. In my case, I decided a drastic haircut was in order. Now, I am sure many of you think of the same thing as I do when you hear “drastic haircut.” Continue reading

Confession: I Am An Online Ageist

Yeah, that’s right. I am an online ageist. But I mean this in a good way. I mean this in the way that you all understand why To Catch A Predator with Chris Hansen had a reason for existing (oh Chris Hansen…you really cheated…online…and got caught…really?).

On all of the online dating sites they ask what your age range is, which makes perfect sense. It would make sense that as a 24 year old, I would ideally (IDEALLY…notice the italics) date someone a little older, but not too old. Like say 26-29, maybe even 30. Ah, if only it was that easy.
