This week's question comes from Desiree:
"Orna and Matthew,
I’ve been following you two forever it seems. I think you give the best dating advice for women. I’ve been dating a lovely man for about 3 months now and he hasn’t officially proposed… although he’s asking me questions that are letting me know he’s already thinking about it.
The news is everywhere about Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande getting engaged after dating only 3 weeks! Argh!
I know celebrities don’t follow any

WHY Am I Attracted To One Man Instead Of Another?
This week's question comes from Amy:
Hi Orna and Matthew,
I am fairly new to your community and I am gobbling up all the great new insights on your website and in your blog. After my BF of over 7 years broke up with me I’ve been doing my best to put myself back together and I don’t want to repeat the mistakes I’ve made in the past.
Would you please let me know what you believe is the reason I’m attracted to a particular man instead of another?
I relate to everything you share about

Will I Always Feel Like I’m Broken?
This week's question comes from Ann
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
My story is rather long and complicated so I'll keep this as brief as possible. I grew up in a very dysfunctional alcoholic household. There were absolutely no boundaries. I've had lots of help and even attend a 12-step group. All this has been very helpful and it has really come down to me taking action, which has been scary. My relationships with men have been dysfunctional and it has been a slow learning process in how to have a

Should I get back with my ex?
This week's question comes from Lisa:
"Dear Orna and Matthew,
I hope you can help me. My ex wants to get back together with me. We've been broken up for 3 months and I've been focusing on myself, on my own healing. I'm starting to feel really good about myself. And that's the problem. He has noticed the changes I'm making and we've been getting along really well lately. I'm so confused. How do I know what to do? I still love him and I feel encouraged by the way we've been getting along.

It’s not just how he treats you…
This week's question comes from Bianca:
Hi Orna and Matthew,
I’ve been dating this guy for about 4 months and he is unlike any of the men I’ve dated in the past. He is kind, thoughtful, and he seems to really like me. He says he wants to be with me and I believe him.
After reading a bunch of books and listening to webinars I know that how the guy treats me is one thing to pay attention to.
It’s clear to me that this man is a good and kind man. His behavior shows me that I am a

I don’t want to regress into my old patterns…
This week's question comes from Susana:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
Thanks for the opportunity to get your help and advice. My question is: I've done all my work and I have started dating someone totally different and very special. This means I have changed. But how do I keep from going back to my old ways and make sure this relationship lasts?
Thanks!"
