This week's question comes from Alisha:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
I have been gobbling up everything you two put out for many years. I love seeing how you interact with one another. It gives me hope to see you two, the hope that someday I can have lasting-love.
One of the things I’m unsure about is how to choose a good husband, someone I can really trust. It seems like a daunting task to select a partner for life – and yet that is exactly what I want. I want great love, one that will last a lifetime.
Is there a set criteria that I need to know? Is there something specific that I must include? I’m always afraid that I’ll miss something really important. Like when I

5 Ways Self-Sabotage Is Keeping You Single
This week's question comes from Sheri:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
How can I shift/release/realign the incredibly painful belief that "I'm not wanted"?! Recently I had this pain triggered again by a man that I KNOW I don’t want a relationship with when I discovered he’s in touch with another woman. I'm afraid I'm sabotaging my relationships again.
I’ve done a ton of work on this belief and I’ve become clear how I’m the one who sabotaged my past relationships because of this fear. I really feel discouraged that this belief was triggered again despite all the healing I’ve done.
Part of me feels like I will never have the kind of relationship I want. Now, I know that

Lasting Love After Divorce
This week's question comes from Irene:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
I’ve been following ‘Love On Purpose’ for 6yrs now. I’ve learned so much.
I want to know how to bounce back and create lasting love after divorce. I was married for 17 years and divorced my husband 4 years ago. He is an addict and broke my heart for the last time. I finally got sick of his issues and kicked him out. I’ve been focused on raising my kids and now they’re in college and getting ready for college.
I really haven’t dated much. I did have a couple of boyfriends but they were never serious relationship material. Heck, I never even told my kids about them.
The thing is, I’m tired of being

Do I Have A Twin Flame?
This week's question comes from Madison:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
I’ve been reading and watching everything you two do for years now. I love how you interact with one another. It’s clear there is so much love there. I printed out a photo of you two from your website years ago where you’re kissing in front of a merry-go-round and I’ve had it on my vision board with the words, “Twin Flame” as a headline at the top of it.
You give the best dating advice for women that I’ve found anywhere. So here’s my question – do I have a twin flame and how do I find him?
I want to be with the person who gets me and loves me and who I know I can count on. I want that deep soulful,

5 Things To Keep In Mind While Texting With A Guy
This week's question comes from Katy:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
I love the advice you give out on your blog and in your webinars. I’m wondering what you think about texting… is it good or bad? Is it bad for me to text a guy I like?
How can I text with a guy so that it moves the relationship forward and doesn’t turn him off?

I Like Him But…?
This week's question comes from Debbi:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
It’s been about 2 years since my ex and I split and I took some time to heal and look within before I started dating. Now that I’ve put myself out there I’m going on quite a few dates with different men.
There’s one guy in particular that I like, except he talks a lot. I can get around that, but he also interrupts me when I’m speaking. It seems I can’t even finish 2 sentences without him interrupting me. I don’t even get to finish my story or make my point even if I’m answering a question he has asked me.
I find him attractive and there are some really great qualities about him that I like. We
