Who We Are & Why You Will Come to Love Us


You are a single professional woman (SPW) if you are:
1.      Single (no shit, right?);
2.      Educated (college, but probably higher);
3.      Smart (we don’t have to explain to you why 2 and 3 are different);
4.      Higher-earning (all of those degrees are good for something!); and
5.      Older (those years of school didn’t come with anti-aging serum, honey).
If you have been dating as a SPW using the same approach you did when you were younger, it’s no surprise that dating is turning out to be quite a struggle. Trying to find Mr. Right using the dating rules that worked in your early 20’s is the equivalent of trying to fit into your old prom dress – it’s going to be uncomfortable, it’s going to take a while, and ultimately it ain’t gonna happen. 
We’re here to bring you nuggets of wisdom when it comes to dating as an SPW.  Are we always going to be nice? No. But you’ll get to love us with time. Are we going to tell you what you want to hear? No. You can tell yourself what you want to hear. We’re here to tell you the truth – even if it’s ugly.
We’re two professional women – one married, one dating – and we’ve either personally lived through or witnessed firsthand the trials and tribulations of dating as an SPW.  We know you’re overworked. We know you don’t have a lot of time for dating.  We know most men you meet suck and those that don’t for some reason haven’t called you back. And we know that some of you won’t dare admit you want to date because you’ve managed to convince yourself that’s not your priority and you love your current blissful state of denial.  Because we know all of this, we are here to help in a way that your friends (who often lie to you), your family (who aren’t exactly dating gurus) and those legions of self-help books (who fail to realize you aren’t some Barbie bimbo who can’t handle her own shizzle) simply can’t.
Our dating advice stems from one single truth – Prince Charming does not exist and you must stop searching for him now.  Using Cinderella (she knew more about dating than you ever thought she did!) we’ll spin the latest celebrity gossip or most recent dating adventure we’ve witnessed, into hilarious, insightful tidbits of knowledge for the dating SPW.  So become a “follower” and join us  - we promise you’ll laugh and learn something new with every post.
