Dear Uncle Mike,
Here's a question for you. How
do you stop falling in love with the
wrong woman? Over and over
again. I always start out thinking this
is the one I've been waiting for. I
always end up dealing with
somebody I only thought I knew who
has habits that drive me crazy or
gross me out. Is there part of this
I'm not getting? I know the kind of
woman I want. Why cant they be
what they seem? Maybe it's me.
But if love is blind, how do people
stay together?
