“I’m Single but too shy to Talk to Guys. Help!” | Ask The Men
Dear Ask The Men, “I am a 45 year old, soon to be divorced woman, and mother of three. My daughters are currently attending college and my son is eleven years old. I was in a marital relationship for 21 years. Prior to that I had very little experience with men. In fact, my soon to be ex was my first boyfriend. I would describe myself as a late bloomer and I am proud to say I’m sexier today than I was 20 years ago. Any hoo, I’m no where near ready to date, but I must admit I do think about my future and if it would ever include having…

Dear OpinionatedMale.com, “My girlfriend and I have been in agreement when we say that guys have no respect when it comes to texting. The disrespect is evident with how long it takes a man to respond to a text. Now we’re not talking about a one time situation. We are talking about the man who responds hours later to a text on a consistent basis. I’m sorry but if you think it’s okay to respond 12 hours later, it’s not. Within those 12 hours, you’ve seen the text and simply chose not to respond. Think about if the roles were reversed. If I was your girl &/or someone you cared about…

On this weeks featured episode of Ask The Men, Jamal asks: “Hi there. So to start off my story I had a relationship with this girl for a month but [prior to that] we were talking for about 3 months. We are both coworkers and it’s been a rocky relationship from the get go because of her anger and my [in]ability to grow up and be a man.

How Long Should you Wait for Him to Propose? | Ask The Men
Dear OpinionatedMale.com, “Hi. My name is Monica. I must say your blog is very interesting. I have a question. I’m 24 and in college, and from time to time I think about marriage. My grandmother always says to me, “A man should know within 6 months if he wants to marry you. If he doesn’t ask you by the first year, leave him because he is waiting for something better to come along“. I agree with her, but I feel it could be more of a challenge because the world is so different [now] compared to the past. I was thinking a year and a half..maybe two. From an adult males perspective,…
