Port Calypso Daily News Update

Port Calypso Daily News

As we reported last week in the Society pages, Dane Martin of the popular men's dating advice website virile.com and author of soon to be released self-help book, Coming On Strong, was seen in a compromising position with another local celebrity, Holly Winters. Ms. Winters, whose popular blog girlnextdoor.com gives relationship advice to women struggling to find commitment among the monogamy-shy Virile sycophants, seems like the last woman Martin would dally with as both bloggers' philosophies are in direct opposition with the other. Winters' own self-help book, as yet untitled, is to be released next year. Though neither would comment on the romantic nature of their relationship to PC Daily, stating they were "just friends", they agreed to a joint column this week answering reader questions from their unique perspectives. Each day, we'll be posting a new question with the He said/She said response.

Port Calypso will certainly be watching these local experts as they navigate
their "friendship." We can't help but wonder if the Girl Next Door has tamed the
most Virile man alive...or is she just another notch on the bedpost?

he said she said
Dear Mr. Virile and The Girl Next Door,
I was on a date with my significant other and we ran into his ex. She was blatantly coming on to him.ย  I got mad; he said I over reacted. What do you think?
Sincerely,
Seeing Green
He Said: You like him enough to be seen in public with him, so it's a no-brainer that other women are going to also find him attractive. Retract your claws and be thankful that despite the fact that your man has other choices—he chooses you. In fact, next time you get jealous, instead of getting mad, find the nearest broom closet and show him why you're his prize with a little daring public nookie. He won't even remember the other girl's name. She Said: It's frustrating when uninvited guests try to crash your relationship. There are two choices here: either you're insecure about your relationship or you have reason to be. Watch his body language, instead of hers, when he's around other women like his ex. Is he inviting their advances or does he close himself off or better yet...reach for you? read next

Re: Port Calypso Daily News Update

In this case, I would have to take the She said answer to the question. She seems to be more spot on with how men and women "tick" in a relationship. The book sounds like an interesting read, even though I've been happily married for a long time.

I agree with what She said. I want my man to be 100% with me.

Dane, you are a dog. Love, Gwen
(Gwen Hayes 1:39pm January 14, 2014)
