Ladies & Gents! I am starting a new series. A couple of you have responded to my last few blogs with relationship questions. I love it! I love feedback, comments and questions. Singleandhappy.net is the perfect discussion board where single men and women can break down barriers. My goal to make the pages of this blog a safe place where we can find happiness and resolution in our collective dating circumstance.
To provoke community discussion, I will give my readers a chance to respond before I post my response. If, for example, "Distressed and Manless" asks if she should approach a co-worker she believes is covertly flirting, take a few moments to offer advice. Click the comments link below and post your thoughts. After I hear from you, then I'll chime in. Let's start with Ms. "Stuck in a MAD Woman’s Dream"....

Dear Bee,
I read your blog regarding Beyonce’s song "Put a Ring on It". But my question is, what do you do when he puts a ring on another woman’s finger? How do I cope when I love a man who loves another woman? Unrequited love is certainly the worst. It burns. Yesterday, I got the news he's engaged. It broke my heart. He always told me he didn’t want to get married. What changed? I experienced several emotions, I went from shocked to angry to numb. A tiny voice in the back of my mind says I should be happy he found love. A slightly larger voice is angry he isn’t with me. And since I am being brutally honest, I have to admit there is also an evil voice (with much louder vocals) that wants the engagement to fold. I want him to be as empty-handed as I feel. But I believe in karma, and I don’t like putting that negative energy into the universe. Help! I have tossed and turned enough over this man. How do I wake up and move on?
Sincerely,
Stuck in a MAD Woman’s Dream
