#ValentinesDay – Why Men Hate It and Women Love It at #DadChat – #Love #Marriage #Chocolate

Posted on February 9, 2015 by Bruce Sallan

Let’s face it, Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays that polarizes relationships between men and women, and the expectations are off the chart. We men usually can’t get it right. Women look forward to this day as much as the post-Christmas sales. It used to be simple – chocolates and/or flowers and a sweet card. Now, we’re made to feel that our gifts are reflections of our love and their status (in our hearts). Let’s TAKE THIS ON at #DadChat this Thursday, February 12 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9:00 p.m. ET. Your homework is this column, Why Men Hate Valentine’s Day.

If you want a GREAT warm-up to our chat, join the DEBUT of my friend Julie Spira’s #DateChat at 5:00 p.m. PT/8:00 p.m. ET – I’ll be there! Details HERE!

My Parents’ Love Affair

Posted on February 12, 2013 by Bruce Sallan

My parents had the greatest love story, love affair of them all! I threw a 50th Wedding Anniversary surprise party for them in June, 1989. This was way before packaged videos of events. I hired a new videographer who basically just “shot” the event. I prepared my own visual presentation at the party and that is what you’ll be seeing in this 14-minute video. I hope you appreciate it. I was once young!

Valentine’s Day: The Greatest Love Affair of Them All

Posted on February 11, 2013 by Bruce Sallan

Love and Marriage was a classic Sinatra song. Its lyrics truly seem quaint and decidedly old-fashioned today. But, my parents lived a love affair that stood the test of time and incredible challenges. Their love affair was a model that was pretty hard for their peers to match and certainly impossible in my generation for both my wife and any of my married friends – at least those that I know well.
