No Rate Change From Fed]]> <![CDATA[Better Safe Than Sorry]]> You’re ready to meet that good-looking guy you recently met online, when suddenly you get a nervous feeling. After all, what he wrote in his profile and what he told you on the phone might just not be true.

My girlfriend and I have been dating for eight months thus far and she and I come from completely opposite ends of the economic spectrum. I grew up in quite an influential, well-off community, and she comes from a much more blue-collar area. 

]]> <![CDATA[Are You Honest...Or Overboard?]]> How lucky we are to be in an age where men and women alike are encouraged to express their feelings. We share what’s on our mind to our family, our friends, our co-workers, our therapists, and last, but not least, our dates. The thing is: While our family, friends, co-workers and therapists have all known us long enough to roll with some of our beyond blunt comments, our dates have most likely not had that luxury—which is why you may well have completely offended one of them without even knowing it. Such is the price of honesty: We think we’re just being candid; someone else thinks we’re just being a jerk. Let’s take a closer look at how to wrangle this tricky dating territory.

]]> <![CDATA[Armageddon Love]]> What happens when people feel their own mortality?  In Dr. Raymond Moody’s book, Life After Death, people described their experience of temporarily dying and then being brought back to life.  Almost everyone who had a near death experience reported being asked two questions during the time of their death.  Regardless of culture or religious beliefs, the two questions were the same: “What did you learn about being able to love?” and “How well did you use your gifts to live your unique life purpose?”
