WE DISCUSS:

1. Let's talk about the 5 stages of a relationship. The majority of women in this podcast are in the first 2. Can we go through what the 5 stages are.
2. You talk about the ratio of positive to negative interactions during conflict. Can you explain that a little more and address how conflict can be beneficial and how we can handle it in the best way?
3. I read something before that said, if it is not detrimental to the relationship, sometimes telling the full truth about something may not be the best option. What is your opinion on this in relationships? Do we need to tell eachother 100% of everything?
4. I see time and time again people jumping from one relationship to the other and always finding something wrong and blaming why it didn't work on that other person. What are some signs that it's maybe that person being an issue versus the other person?

Q & A:

1. I am married but I still love the feeling of getting hit on by other guys. Why do I feel like this way and how can I stop.
2. What do you do if your husband has a low libido. I feel like I want to have sex more than he does.
3. I feel like I am not approaching things with my husband well. Everytime I ask him to do things around the house it provokes an argument.
4. My boyfriend had multiple sex partners before me and I only had 2, it's still something that lingers in the back of my mind if I'm "good enough" is this normal?
5. Are there certain times of the month that sex is better than others for women based on hormones?
6. Masturbating - is it good or can it ruin the sex relationship between you and your partner
7. How can I spice up my sex life with my partner if he is a little reserved and not as comformtable in the bedroom
8. My husband doesn't want to know about any of my past partners or how many there were - is this normal? Everyone else I have dated wanted to know.
9. What am I doing wring if all I attract it "fuck boys" and not guys that actually want to date me
