JUST RELEASED! Breaking Relationship Patterns
Dear Eve,
I have a great fear of being attracted to the same type of person as my ex-husband. I have been separated now almost three years and hope to be divorced very soon. There will never be a reconciliation. He is a man who plays mind games and is obsessed with hunting, drinking, and pornography, not to mention many affairs, and verbal and physical abuse. I know what I want, but at the same time am very afraid of never finding it. I need someone who above all I can respect. I am searching for someone who is professional and well respected-someone who respects himself, as well as others. I sincerely hope that you will be able to give me some help. I would truly like to know what you think.
Please help!

Dealing with a Friend Who is Always Late
Watch this video to discover the answer to this question:
Hello Eve,
I teach a movement class called ‘Nia’ and one of the regular attendees of my classes has also become a good friend over the last four years. I’m feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place as a friend/teacher, in that this woman is consistently late for not only my classes, but everything else. She tends to arrive 15 to 20 minutes late for every class and I find this not only mildly disruptive, but somewhat disrespectful towards me as a ‘professional’. I’m unfortunately at a point now where this has gone on so long (I have previously mentioned to her that I appreciate people arriving on time as much as is within their control) that I feel an animosity towards her when she arrives in class. I’m rather disappointed in myself in that I have not firmly set my boundaries with her so in part this is my issue also!
I welcome any words of wisdom you may have regarding this.

Dating After the Death of a Spouse. Watch this video to discover the answer to this question:
Dear Eve,
I lost my soul mate when he died after twenty-eight years together and now, I’m ready to jump back into the dating pool and get wet. I’ve had two husbands and am not looking for marriage again. What I would really like to find is a companion to have fun with and see what happens. I’m a woman of nearly sixty-one and love life. I’m not a dazzler, but nice to look at (with a few extra pounds I’m getting rid of). I’m very active and have a lot of fun with the “Red Hatters.” I’m open to a lot of activities and sports and am more or less and a pretty well rounded woman.
I’ve found a couple of men online that are very high in match compatibilities and have written them, but not a word back in nearly three weeks. Maybe I’m being too forward about what I don’t want. What do you think? How specific should I be about what I don’t want?
I appreciate your input.

Flirting with the Unavailable. Watch this video to discover the answer to this question:
Dear Eve,
After fifteen years of marriage, I am back in the dating pool. I have known this gentleman for two years and he and I have flirted back and forth the whole time. He now has a girlfriend of one year, but never speaks positive of her. He still flirts a lot and at every opportunity either hugs me or holds my waist or hand. I think about him constantly and this is the first time for me to ever be like this. I just don’t know how to read when a man flirts the way he has – is it in fun or is he trying to tell me something? And should I let him know my feelings or just let it ride?
In this video, Eve invites us to look within to see what we are attracting, and what we are willing to settle for. As we raise the inner bar, the outer will line up to match.

How come I can’t live with ‘em and I can’t live without ‘em?
Eve, Why do I constantly pick bad boys or men who are destined to hurt me eventually?? I’m not attracted to nice guys at all—the ones who might stick around and who I could probably build a future with. I just don’t feel the chemistry with them. I want to get out of this syndrome but don’t know how. Do other girls have this problem?
In this video, Eve shares that our “heroes” are “bad boys with values.” It isn’t the bad we are attracted to, it is the conviction and confidence.

Can you tell me more about the labyrinth and what I would get walking it? I’ve heard about it, but don’t really get why I’d want to “walk around in circles” when it seems like I do that all day long! Thanks

Dear Eve,
I had really low self-esteem as a teenager, and still have a lot of self-doubt. As an adult, I now have a young daughter (2 years old) and I really don’t want her to suffer the same thing. What can I do to ensure that she has a healthy self-image growing up?
In this video, Eve shares not only how to assist your loved ones in enhancing their self-esteem but also recognizing that your own self-talk is truly the message that they will hear. She offers a powerful exercise at the end to strengthen your knowing of your own self value and to “train your brain to start with heart.”

Dear Eve,
I am just not successful in love. I go out on dates, maybe even go out with someone for a few months, but at some point they always break up with me or call it off. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. The most recent woman just said that she didn’t feel like we would work out; the one before that said that I wasn’t her type after all. Do you have any suggestions?
In this video, Eve shares the importance of taking a deeper look at how you show up, the energy you put out and thus, the energy that you magnetize toward you. She shares what often goes wrong in relationships and how to approach them differently.
