By Susan Winter for The Huffington Post This is the best of all times to be a man. Sex isn’t the promise of a future partnership. It’s a prize that’s given freely at the beginning of a “who-knows-what” type of romantic interaction. Standing in the middle of this sociological shift, I look around my world to see how other women are feeling about this current state of affairs. Are they happy? I’m not. Do they feel powerful? I don’t feel empowered from this position. Is [...]

By Susan Winter for The Huffington Post The fear of being alone is terrifying for most people I know. We've been led to believe that having someone is better than having no one. This message runs deep in our social fabric and is the basis of many single's discontent. Attached to this myth is the belief that being single mean "unwanted" instead of taking one's time to choosing wisely. The fear of being alone is an irrational construct. Alone doesn't mean "lonely." Yet, many [...]

9 Months. 98 Men. Here’s What I’ve Learned

By Susan Winter for The Huffington Post I hate dating. There. I’ve said it. Let’s be clear about the mechanics of this concept. Dating is only a flirtatious first sniff of what may later be mounted. No more, no less. And like the unwilling sled dog harnessed in line, my soul squirms at the thought of having to “put my best foot forward” to gain a man’s sniff of approval. Dating is the required presentational stage for a possible future interlude. For this very reason, [...]

Why Smart Professionals Are Stupid Daters

By Susan Winter for The Huffington Post A successful venture capitalist can distinguish between a company of true merit and one of false flash, yet fail to see the same in the woman he’s dating. An accomplished businesswoman can walk into a job interview thinking, They’re crazy if they don’t hire me, yet wonder if her date finds her worthy. And the seasoned golf pro can read an undulating green, but can’t make sense of his partner’s behavior. How’s this possible? Why do smart, confident and [...]

The Unbroken Heart

By Susan Winter for The Huffington Post Rare, but it does exist. I know a woman who has never had her heart broken. Something inside her insists upon her leaving the man she is with before any emotional damage can occur. I marvel at this. She doesn’t struggle with conflicting feelings. They simply evaporate. She’s not cold and shallow, as one might imagine. She’s open and loving. How does this happen? Most of us have had to experience a broken heart to restore us to [...]
