New Episode: How long should you stay after a one-night-stand?

Click to play episode

CLICK TO PLAY EPISODE.

Oh it was an amazing night–or so you thought. What does the next morning hold–if you stay that long? Quick tips: don’t know his name? Search his mail. Ditto for figuring out where you are so you can call the cab. But the real question is: how long to linger or whether to bolt immediately.

We say get out of there–and don’t go hunting for hints about whether there’s a chance for a 2-night stand. Sure, there’s always the thought that maybe this really IS the one. But consider the circumstances. (Whether or not to have a one-night-stand is a whole other matter!) Do you remember how you ended up here? Was it by choice or default–on either of your sides? And, as Teddy points out, what happens if you have a morning repeat of the night’s pleasures. Still we say leave–if you want more of him, or she of you, then see if you get asked for your info on the way out the door. And PLEASE–don’t text anything remotely resembling this as you are grooving on down the street: “WOW. What a night.” Leave them wanting more, or, just leave them. Clear your head, and then decide if you want to pursue it. After all, you do know where he (or she) lives.

Listen in for the full details!

New episode: Dating mishaps

CLICK TO PLAY EPISODE

Ever go out on a date and things went horribly wrong? How did you handle it? One caller tells their terrible tale–involving mistaken identity, small bathroom windows and potential double jeopardy mishap-dom. Listen in!

Plus, here’s a few more comments from our facebook page.

I went out with one guy on Friday and took someone else out on Saturday to the same place. There was Friday night date guy sitting at the bar! So, I turned really fast and ran out the door, down the street, down the alley with Saturday night guy following asking me waht was wrong! I said, “My coworkers were at the bar and I didn’t want them to see me.” I don’t think he believed me but said I was a lot of fun and couldn’t wait to see what would happen next.

This wasn’t a first date but def. embarassing. Had only been with my now husband for maybe 5 months when I blurted out, “oh you know when we get married…”, in conversation about my brother’s wedding. Caught myself and he acted like I never said it. ;) We laugh about it now.

Bird pooped on his hat our first date! (editor’s note: that’s good luck!)

First date. His car was broken into and both our wallets were stolen along with my backpack and my brand, spankin’, new hot winter jacket. (Editor’s note: inside job?)

Tell us your sad tales here or give a call at 877-WE-ASKLADYBRAIN!

New Episode: Torn between 2 lovers; why it’s right to be wrong

Click to play episode

PART 1–TORN BETWEEN 2 LOVERS

Dear Lady Brain,

I had a girlfriend that I really loved but she broke up with me. Now I’m with someone else but I’m still constantly thinking about my ex. I don’t know which one I really love.. Help? –S

Listen in for the answer (hint: follow your heart S!)

PART 2–WHY IT’S RIGHT TO BE WRONG

There’s a new book out called “Being Wrong” by Kathryn Schulz. She explores why we find it so gratifying to be right and so maddening to be mistaken, and how this attitude toward error corrodes our relationships—whether between family members, colleagues, neighbors, or nations. Think wrongful convictions, no-fault divorce, medical mistakes, false memories, “I told you so!” to “Mistakes were made.” She believes error is both a given and a gift – one that can transform our worldviews, our relationships, and, most profoundly, ourselves.

We wanted to open up this idea—was there ever a time you were wrong and things went BETTER because you admitted it?

OR—what went horribly wrong because you didn’t admit it? Listen in and find out!
