JACKET UP!

Take your boyfriend jacket to new heights by pairing it with these chic suggestions from Glamour magazine.

Tuxedo Jacket -- pair it with jeans, a fun T-shirt, and some biker boots for some va-va-va-vroom!

Neutral Jacket -- a tailored top and a flowy mini get a conservative accent with your jacket; add some heeled boots and show off your legs.

Longer-Length Blazer -- You can update your cocktail dress by plunking on some heels, a necklace and your blazer. You can even wear it semi-casually.

TYPES OF WOMEN WE SECRETLY LUST OVER

When asked, guys will tell you what they consider to be the "ideal" woman. She's hot, funny and has a great body.

But then, there are those women that are out there on the fringe and not considered ideal. These are women that plenty of guys secretly lust after -- whether they admit it or not.

According to Asylum.com, here are some types of women that some guys secretly fantasize about:

1. Ladies with Slight Dental Imperfections -- A noticeable gap or a tooth that's out of line is strangely hot.

2. Freckled Gals -- These women probably remind us all of the girls we had a crush on -- and never did anything about - in fifth grade.

3. Goth Chicks -- Dark plus dangerous equals fun.

4. Chubby Girls -- Whether they admit it or not, most guys think those extra 10 pounds make a woman look approachable, real and ... cuddly.

GIRL CRUSHES

Is there a celebrity you have a total "girl crush" on, someone you really admire and just know you would get along with?

Well, according to Cosmo, your girl crush says more about you than you know. Here are some worthy ladies and what their personality says about you.

• Angelina Jolie
• Jennifer Aniston
• Anne Hathaway
• Blake Lively
• Michelle Obama
• Kate Winslet
• Freida Pinto
• Taylor Swift

Anne or Kate: Super successful -- and always evolving -- these ladies are "directors." Could be you're just like them; could be you'd make a great team because you trust others and can push past a narrow focus.

Freida or Jen: These ladies are "builders," more structured and cautious, but not fearful. A crush on a builder means you're a bit conservative and conscientious -- and are great at creating your own fab life.

Michelle or Angie: Daring and curious, these ladies are most likely to succeed, but might choose to do anything. Your crush tends to mean you're much like these adventurers -- flexible, risk-taking, and independent.

Taylor or Blake: Soft, feminine, tactful, and understanding -- these women are negotiators -- and this crush points to you being a negotiator too.

Just Asking ... Who's your girl crush ... and why?

FIRST DATE MISTAKES

The cliche rings true ... You don't get a second chance to make a first impression. That's why it's important to bring your A-game when you're on a first date -- and not make any stupid mistakes.

According to TheBachelorGuy.com, here are some of the mistakes you need to avoid if you want to have a shot at seeing a woman again:

1. Choosing the Wrong Type of Date -- There's more to life than just dinner and a movie. The problem is that dinner is way too formal and there's no talking during movies. Instead, consider Happy Hour or playing pool or mini-golf.

2. Treating a Date Like a Job Interview -- Don't rehearse. Don't allow yourself to be pressured. Nothing about a first date needs to be perfect. Everything about a first date needs to fun and relaxed.

3. Not Getting Physical -- A lot of guys are so scared of offending a woman that they will not initiate any physical contact. From now on, make it a habit to begin lightly and innocently touching a woman the moment the date begins.

Todays Brain Drain Question:

REASONS MEN LOVE VIDEO GAMES

As long as video games have been around, they've gotten a bad rap. But, like all vices, there are some very good reasons guys can't stop playing.

Despite the fact that most women hate games, there are some very good and specific reasons video games are more popular than ever.

According to Guyism.com, here are a few reasons men love playing video games so much:

1. Buddies -- Video gamers aren't just lonely guys in their basement anymore. These days, games bring friends together. They're either playing Rock Band together while drinking beers -- or hanging out together online. Amazingly, video games have become one of the more socially active hobbies you can have.

2. Competition -- Men are competitive, which makes video games the ultimate arena to man up. There's an even playing field and a final scoreboard.

3. Escape -- The only thing that keeps most guys sane is getting away from women on occasion. You can't put a price on the value of escaping the tedium of everyday life. And, nagging women.

4. Fantasy -- Most guys have crappy jobs that they don't love. Video games are the closest they're ever going to get to winning a Super Bowl trophy or saving a princess.

Get In Shape For Spring Break(Posted 3:00 AM, 2/22/2010)

Spring Break ... It's getting closer. Are you ready? If you want to get bikini-ready fast to look your best, here are some simple and powerful tips to get you in shape quickly. 1. Eat Protein -- Aim for at least 15 grams of protein at breakfast and 25 grams at lunch and dinner. This helps keep you fuller longer and helps you resist the temptation to snack in between meals. 2. Stay Hydrated -- Dehydration has been known to cause food cravings, so just drink enough water. Water also keeps you feeling full and helps detox your body. 3. Nothing After Dinner -- Late-night snacking can ruin all weight loss efforts because you can easily forget how much you're actually eating. On top of that, your metabolism screeches to a halt at night. Source: OpposingViews.com

CREDIT CARD NEWS

Did you know new credit-card regulations are going into effect next week? On February 22nd, some credit cards will be changing their terms and you need to find out if it's to your benefit or not. The important thing to do before then is to pay attention to what's going on with your accounts and make sure you're aware of the terms on all your cards.

Other tips from the pros:

• Wait until after February 22nd to apply for new cards. New accounts can't have any interest-rate increases for the first year.

• For existing cards, consider a balance transfer from higher-rate cards to accounts with lower interest rates.

• Have at least one back-up card on-hand for emergencies.

• Charge a small amount those extra cards and pay it off each month to avoid fees or having your account closed for inactivity.

Signs You're Not Over Your Ex(Posted 3:00 AM, 2/17/2010)

Breakups can be brutal. According to YourTango.com, here are some signs you're still not over your ex: 1. Everything Reminds You of Him -- Songs, foods, smells ... everything brings back a specific memory. Time to stop lingering on the past and start bonding with people who are actually in your life. 2. You're Overcompensating -- You dress up in the hopes you'll run into him and try to create the impression that your life is really awesome. When you catch yourself in this trap, remove him from the center of your focus. 3. You Compare Everyone to Him -- Every time you meet a new guy, you make a list of all the ways he doesn't measure up to your ex. This, of course, will get you nowhere. Instead, have the discipline to measure every new man you meet on his own merits. 4. You Fantasize -- If you still harbor a secret fantasy that the two of you have a future together, you're in big trouble. This misguided belief is keeping you from living life, or at least giving someone new a chance. Move on! Source: YourTango.com

HELPING YOUR FRIEND THROUGH A BREAK-UP

Is your friend all broken-up over a break up? After the pint of ice-cream and bottle of Cab what are you supposed to do?

Glamour offers some advice on holding up your pal after they've had their heart crushed.

1. Hug Her. The power of touch works. A tight squeeze, a hand hold, rubbing her back -- she'll instantly feel a little safer and a little better.

2. Say Two Little Words. Yes, you may have heard the same story six times, but THE best thing you can say to your heartbroken friend is: "What else?" Not only are you showing your complete support, but that you want to hear everything she has to say, as long as it takes.

3. Boost Her Up. You want to tell her he's a fool ... but is he? It doesn't matter. Whether he dumped her because he's dumb or moved on to a genius supermodel, it's not going to help HER self-esteem. Focus on your friend, remind her of her great qualities and all the reasons you love her.

15% OF WOMEN WILL DO THIS ON AT LEAST ONE VALENTINE'S DAY IN THEIR LIFETIMES. WHAT?

-SEND THEMSELVES FLOWERS (WINNER)

THIS KISS ...

Valentine's Day is the day of romance, so keep this in mind guys: A study on kissing found that women based their decision of whether they would sleep with a man, on his kissing abilities!

So make sure you don't kiss like this ...

• The Lizard: Your tongue darts in and out of her mouth like a reptile probing for its next victim.

• The Roto Rooter: Your tongue ventures so far down her throat that it actually begins to choke her.

• The Swordfish: You operate your tongue much like a swordfish, and use your nose in a blunt and violent manner.

• The Deep Sea Diver: You rarely come up for air.

• Frozen in Time: You never change the position, posture, or angle of your head.

• The Squid: You seem to emit an awful smell and taste. All she can think of is how to slip you a breath mint.

Just Asking ... Describe your worst kiss? What made it so awful? Would you tell someone if they were a bad kisser, or would just keep making out with them, praying it would end soon?

10 Most Mismatched Movie Couples(Posted 3:00 AM, 2/12/2010)

Sometimes chemistry bombs on the big screen. Here are Yahoo's 10 Most Mismatched Movie Couples ... Nick Nolte & Julia Roberts: I Love Trouble -- 1994 Just because Julia's star was on the rise, and Nolte was "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1992, does not chemistry make, or perhaps it's because he's twice her age. Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez: Gigli -- 2003 Real life sparks don't always translate to the screen ... or to real life, actually. Does anyone know why these two were together? Harrison Ford & Anne Heche: Six Days, Seven Nights -- 1998 Somehow, Harrison Ford still pulled off the action star and Anne Heche wasn't yet regarded as nuts. Unfortunately no matter how long they spent alone together on an island they would never cultivate any chemistry between them. Kevin Spacey & Kate Bosworth: Beyond the Sea -- 2004 OK, the real Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee were an odd couple. He was a balding singer from the Bronx; she was a 16-year-old movie star ... but Spacey and Bosworth? Completely unbelievable. Hayden Christensen & Natalie Portman: Star Wars - Episode II and Episode III - 2002/2005 It's more comfortable watching Luke lust after his sister, Lea, than to watch this stiff, awkward couple. Portman and Christensen are about as believable as those weird computer generated add-ins. Madonna & Adriano Giannini: Swept Away -- 2002 Madonna didn't learn her Shanghi Surprise lesson when she make a bomb with her ex-husband Sean Penn, so she tried again. Guy Ritchie's Swept Away has Adriano Giannini opposite Madonna and two grate against each other ... and not in that cute they should just "do it and get it over with" kind of way. Dan Aykroyd & Rosie O'Donnell: Exit to Eden -- 1994 Putting Dan Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell in skimpy studded leather outfits is supposed to be funny ... but it's not. It's just painful. Justin Guarini & Kelly Clarkson: From Justin to Kelly -- 2003 Casting the first and second place finishers of American Idol in the lead roles of a movie is sort of like letting the Top Chef winners perform your appendectomy. Eddie Murphy & Eddie Murphy: Norbit -- 2006 As both the nerdy Norbit and his horrifying wife, Rasputia ... does this need explanation? Woody Allen & Any Actress 20+ (or 30 or 40) Years Younger Than Him Woody seems to have gotten the hint that women like Scarlett Johansson, Tea Leoni, Julia Roberts or Charlize Theron find old men hitting on them creepy, not romantic.

Go out to a club with your single friends -- you may wind up meeting your date for next year.

Invite your single friends over for a horror or comedy movie-a-thon.

Get a puppy -- nothing like a cold, wet nose and some sloppy unconditional love to get your mind off hearts and flowers.

TP your ex's house.

Get a tattoo.

Pamper yourself -- get a massage/facial/manicure/pedicure

And when all else fails ... drink heavily -- preferably with friends.

SEX IS THE BEST EXERCISE!

If you're not a big fan of sweating it up at the gym, there's a better way to get your exercise in -- just have more sex!
Sex is a form of both aerobic and cardiovascular exercise and works a few different muscles at once -- it's the best full-body workout you can get. Even solo sex burns calories! Sex also improves your cardiovascular fitness, reduces stress, improves your mood, increases your oxygen levels, improves your coordination and energy level and helps keep you limber. Sex can even help ward off cellulite on your thighs, which is one of the main reasons we go to the gym in the first place!

VALENTINE'S DAY ETIQUETTE ...

Relationship columnist Dan Savage [Savage Love] offers these pointers on what to do if ...
... you're the only one at work who doesn't get flowers: Don't send them to yourself. It's pathetic. Try to stop viewing this day as a competition.

... you're in a new relationship: It's too soon to have great expectations about romantic gestures. Do something fun that's not overrun by couples, like see a horror movie or go bowling.

... he gives you a lame gift: Be gracious and polite. Remember you've probably disappointed him once or twice, too. Who us? Never!

... you don't know whether to get him a gift: If you expect one, get him one. But FYI -- 51% of guys told Cosmo that it'd freak them out if their new girlfriend got them an extravagant Valentine's Day gift.

... someone asks if you have plans (and you don't): Don't pretend. Your single friend may ask because she's looking for another single person to hang out with.

VALENTINE'S DAY GIFTS FOR YOUR GUY

It seems like guys have it easier when it comes to buying Valentine's Day gifts -- they can always go with lingerie, chocolate or flowers. But women have to get more creative with V-Day gifts for their guys. Here are some ideas:

• If he enjoys cocktails, he'll enjoy a simple barware set with things like a cocktail strainer, mixing spoon, jigger and bottle opener.

• Guys don't like to admit they're lost, so get him a GPS for his car.

• Chances are, his wallet is a bulky mess. A new wallet might get him to finally throw out all those old receipts and ticket stubs.

• Like cozy nights on the couch? Sign him up for a year of Netflix and load his queue with a bunch of his favorite movies and TV shows.

• Does he stay over a lot? Get him a pair of comfy PJs to keep at your place for those times when spending the night turns into spending the weekend.

• Wow him with lingerie that's more his taste than yours -- he'll appreciate the sacrifice.

• It's not really romantic, but most guys would love a membership to a "Beer of the Month" club (and it'll make them think of you all year long!).

TIPS FOR THE BROKEN-HEARTED

Sometimes it's the littlest things that send us spiraling -- and sometimes, it's big annoying holidays like Valentine's Day! Well, we can't mend your broken heart, but if the impending day has got you down, try some of these tips.

• Write your "must-haves" and "can't-stands" for your future mate. What drove you nuts about the last guy? That he wouldn't dance? Maybe he didn't want kids! Whatever you want or need, write it down.

• Relationship resolutions. Recall some things about yourself that you didn't like when you were together. Your diet? Gym habits? Bad habits? Figure out how to secure your fears and maintain you in the next relationship.

• Ask yourself, "Why did you stay?" There's a relationship book titled It's Called A Break-Up Because It's Broken. Even if you weren't the one that called it quits, you likely had reason to leave too. What wasn't working for you?

• Allow grief. We all have different ways of dealing with sadness. Allow yourself a little time before you get upset that you don't want out of your PJs. Crooning to sad songs or cranking rock ones, eating crap ... whatever it is, give yourself a fixed period and "enjoy."

You'll all have fun and romance, without all the holiday's stress. 3. Indulge -- Take a trip to the spa, pamper yourself with a mani/pedi or get a lavish lunch at your favorite spot. Why shouldn't this day be all about you, you, you? 4. Dinner for Eight -- Not in the mood to meet new people? That's OK, neither are half your friends. Put together a lovely dinner party for a bunch of singles in your life! Don't forget to organize a treat of some kind like a fun cocktail or a decadent dessert. Happy Valentine's Day to you, and you, and you ... 5. Treat someone else! -- When was the last time your grandma got a pedicure? Your best friend? Take out someone who's even less prone to treating themselves than you are. 6. Take a trip -- You've got sisters, brothers and/or great friends in other cities, why not visit them?! Bring a local treat to someone far away, and celebrate each other on Valentine's Day. 7. Hit the gym -- Not only will the gym be quiet, but you can get your bod ready for your next beau. Exercise is a great way to pump the endorphins and shake the blues. 8. Volunteer -- Want to stop feeling sorry for yourself? Try helping others. Whether you read to children, feed the homeless, or entertain the sick, you'll not only reap the karmic benefits, but feel rewarded, give back, and remember what's truly important. (Hint: it's not whether or not you have a sweetie on February 14th.)

Today's Brain Drain Question:





10 THINGS HE DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW

Just because you're in a relationship with him doesn't mean you have to tell him EVERYTHING. Glamour magazine contributor Ayna Byrd offers these 10 things your guy never needs to know ...
The number of guys you've slept with.

What happened that time you got food poisoning.

Where you learned your signature sex move.

That no matter how happy you are, you still pine for your ex -- especially sexually.

Your mustache bleaching or any waxing.

That every once in a while you snoop around his e-mail, call log and/or browser history.

The best sex you ever had -- unless it was with him.

That "Braceface" was the nicest of the nicknames you had in elementary school.

Just how hot you think his friend is.

That you once hooked up with your best guy friend.

GADGETS FOR LAZY PEOPLE

We just finished up a lazy day, where most people just sat around a television, eating and drinking. We should give ourselves a little credit, though, for waddling into work today. Bravo!
If you're interested in riding that wave of laziness into the next months (or years), consider getting your hands on some of these gadgets, developed specifically for the laziest among us:

Salad Shooter -- It can be exhausting, grueling work to actually get out a knife and cutting board to chop vegetables. No more need to torture yourself. Just stuff your food into this plastic piece of junk and shoot niblets all over your plate.

The Flowbee -- If the idea of driving ALL THE WAY to a Super Cuts is too much to handle, order that Flowbee! The clipper-vacuum combo is a stroke of genius. Or, just plain scary.

Beer Helmet -- Holding a cold beer and lifting it to your mouth is quite an ordeal. It's much better to look like a complete moron and suck beers from a tube strung up to your helmet.

Slipper Genie -- Why waste cash on brooms and dustpans when you can climb into your super-scrubbing slippers? At least your floor will be clean between the sofa and the fridge.

The Clapper -- Think of all the time you'll save by not having to manually turn off all those pesky household lights.

10 SIGNS IT'S OVER

Doesn't it seem that we hook up a lot faster than we break-up? Sometimes we stay in a relationship A LOT longer than we should -- whether it's because we don't know how to break it off ... or we're scared of being alone ... or we keep hoping things will change.

It's kind of like that thing in the fridge that's long past the sell-by date. You know you should toss it ... but you don't ... just in case it can be salvaged.

Here Are 10 Signs Your Relationship Is Over ...

1. You're always the one calling and initiating IMs and texts.
2. Your significant other stops offering to pay and does fewer favors.
3. Fewer terms of endearment used -- by either of you.
4. When you do hang out, you choose non-talking activities like watching a movie.
5. You're relieved when plans are canceled.
6. The sex stops.
7. When you imagine your future, your significant other is not there.
8. You spend more time with friends separately.
9. You actually have fun when you go out to clubs dancing.
10. One of you is cheating. It sounds as obvious as no sex, yet people stay in unfaithful relationships all the time.

SUPER BOWL: Super Bowl Party Guests To Avoid (Posted 3:00 AM, 2/4/2010)

Super Bowl Sunday will be the last great party until St. Patrick's Day in March, so make the most of it -- and don't let any clowns or idiots ruin your fun. According to Guyism.com, here are some Super Bowl party guests to avoid like the plague: The Vulture -- This guy takes his food very seriously, hovering by the appetizers, stuffing the last slice of pizza in his face. The Drunk -- The drunk shows up with a buzz and kicks it into high gear before halftime. By the end of the game, you're dealing with a stumbling, loud, obnoxious jerk. The Eclipse -- Like the moon passing in front of the sun, this guy blocks your view of the TV at big moments in the game. The Guy That Just Won't Shut Up -- Being sociable is one thing. Being chatty from wire-to-wire is just too much. Even though the biggest football game of the year is on, this guy thinks "it's all about him." Source: Guyism.com

-GIVE A VALENTINE TO A PET (WINNER)

4 BENEFITS OF ONLINE DATING

Still scared of on-line dating? Here are four reasons you should reconsider ...

1. Online dating helps narrow the field.
Online, you can specify a non-smoking, pet-lover who wants kids. There will be fewer relationship deal breakers if you both have your needs and wants known right up front.

2. Online dating is cheaper than the bar scene.
One New York single reasoned that match.com for three months was about the same cost as going out two nights in the city. She found her boyfriend online, after plenty of forgettable city-scene dates.

3. Online dating is efficient.
Looking for a date to bring to your season seats at the opera? Need a daring soul to brave a mountain climbing adventure? Whatever your particular quirk or interest, you can find a kindred spirit in a way you can't by scanning a bar.

4. Online dating is a time-saver.
Do you work a crazy schedule? Like to have first dates on weekdays and have weekends to yourself? If you don't have the time for the "right scene," the internet eliminates the time-crunch.

MORE CUDDLING, LESS CHOCOLATE THIS VALENTINE'S DAY

SUPER BOWL MUST-HAVES

Super Bowl Sunday is pretty much a guy's holiest day of the year, where we get to sit around with our buddies, watch football and drink beer. This year, you could throw the greatest Super Bowl party ever.

Here is a list of the Top 10 Super Bowl party must-have products that will make your friends want to come back to your place next year.

3. Beer Tracker: This is a bottle opener with a digital display that keeps track of the number of beers you open.

9. The Beerdolier: This is a shoulder-strap contraption that can hold up to six beers.

DITCH THE GIRL FOR SUPER BOWL

You've got everything in place for your perfect Super Bowl party. Now there's just one more thing to take care of. You need to somehow ditch your girlfriend so that you can actually enjoy yourself.

So, here are the Top 10 ways to Ditch Your Girlfriend for Super Bowl 44:

10. Lie to her face, but be sure to cover your bases. Don't tell her that you need to go visit your grandmother in the hospital when she actually died 15 years ago. She may figure out that you were lying.

9. Start a fight. Get her so angry that she storms out.

8. Bet a crazy amount of money. Or just tell her you bet a ton of money. She'll be so disgusted that there's no way she'll want to be around you during the game.

7. Get drunk the night before and crash at your buddy's place. Tell her you couldn't make it back home in time for the game.

6. Tell her you're going to some bar or someone's house and then just go somewhere else. Be sure to give her a wrong address, so that she can't find you. Later on, just tell her that you must have accidentally given her the wrong address.

5. Feed her as many shots as you can before the game starts. She'll pass out and need to be taken home. You'll be free to enjoy the game.

4. Book a flight out of town to see a relative or old college buddy.

3. Plan a road trip with your buddies. There's no way she'll want to cram into a van with a bunch of guys.

2. Invite loads of people over to watch the game. She'll be so busy in the kitchen, no one will even see her.

1. Get emotional with her. Explain to her that the Super Bowl is the one day a year for you to do some real male bonding with your friends. She'll probably buy that.
