Are Kids Today Too Violent? (Her Face Was Slashed)
LEWIS BEFORE I planned to write something else today, but I woke up yesterday to some troubling news. As I absent-mindedly clicked through my GoogleReader feeds for potential items for NWSO and ThatsABadLook.com (follow on Twitter) I came across a Daily News article entitled, “Teen girl, whose face was slashed in brutal Brooklyn attack, says [...]
Could You Get Married Without Love? (Desperate Women)
“A woman who embarks on a quest to find a husband by any means usually focuses so much on the goal that she forgets the journey,” @NakedWithSocks, 3/18/10 Over the course of my adult life, I’ve found that a lot—not all—women are obsessed with getting married.

Dear NWSO, I’m a 23-year-old college student and mother of a 5-year-old. I’ve been with my son’s father for roughly six years (since we were 18).

Do You Know When You’ve Met the One? (No More Lists)
Hey, Sock Heads, Thanx for checking in for another weekend post courtesy of the Modern Day Matchmaker, Paul Carrick Brunson. Last week he posed the question of whether or not people were truly willing to invest in love. The feedback was great and made for a great conversation as always. Well, Paul’s back once again [...]
Do I Still Got It? (Flirting For the Hell of It)
Dear NWSO, I’ve been in a relationship with my boyfriend for three years. Everything seemed to be going well; we see each other as often as we can since we’re both in school and working. It can be difficult at times but we make it work. His best friends moved back in the city a [...]
