By Jean Haner

Thirty years ago, I married into a Chinese family. But it wasn’t until a few years after the wedding that I discovered how truly tolerant my mother-in-law really was – because I didn’t have “moneybags” in my face I wasn’t a lucky match for her son!

My mother-in-law introduced me to face reading, and at first, I thought it was a ridiculous superstition – and how abhorrent to judge someone based on their appearance! It wasn’t until I began to study with master teachers that I discovered the deeper principles of … Read More »

Chemistry Quotient | November 29, 2010

I was recently at my girlfriends place and got a text message from an old guy friend I used to work with. Said friend is funny and cute, tall and just my type. We used to go out for drinks, albeit nothing ever happened. He is in a relationship, and I was involved at the time we knew each other.

“So my buddy saw you on Facebook and liked your pictures. Can he add you?”

Uh, sure?

After the technological info was exchanged, it turned out that his pal was completely adorable. Dark features, brooding expression, three piece suit. … Read More »

Small Town Dating: Sex and the City It Is Not | May 18, 2010

When I first became single after a long relationship I felt empowered, liberated and confident. I was certain the world was my oyster and better things lay ahead. I looked forward to weekend getaways, late nights out on the town and daytime retail therapy with the girls, sure my remaining time would consist of being wined and dined by single, attractive men. I was certain my life would be full of cosmopolitans and Prada, investment bankers and champagne. I basically thought life would be all ‘Carrie Bradshaw’ when, in reality, it’s very much ‘Bridget Jones’. Minus the chain smoking, Hugh … Read More »

Divine Intervention- An Open Letter to the Recent Single Lady | November 8, 2009

To all the fabulous ladies recently out of a relationship:

I once read an article in which actress Cameron Diaz equated the breakup of a relationship by claiming it was divine intervention. The concept being, that this person has been cosmically removed; the universe intervened for your highest and best interest.

I could not agree more.

We as mortals cannot possibly understand the waves and crashed that occur in front of us. We are not designed that way. We do not know what will happen tomorrow, next week, or next year. This of course, is perfection. We would not keep reading the novel … Read More »

It was a balmy August night and I had something on my mind. Not anything worth serious chatter, just an idea I had floating about. I have been debating whether or not it is skanky to have a pole in the bedroom.
