Greetings!
Welcome to the Cyber-Dating Expert Weekly Flirt. If you missed last week's radio show with Perfect Match's Dr. Pepper Schwartz, it's now available on demand. Pepper has written dozens of books, has appeared on Oprah, The Today Show, Good Morning America, and more. You'll find out what men really think in the program. This Saturday's radio show is scheduled for 1pm/ET instead of 2pm/ET. I hope you tune in to hear the brilliant Sherri Langburt from Single Edition. Recently I was interviewed by Woman's Day about ways to break up with someone in a non-romantic relationship. Whether it's the hairdresser, an old friend, the nosy neighbor, you'll learn the best ways to get out of a delicate relationship. Singles are signing up for Irresistible Coaching. Think about the best
commercial you have seen on TV. It was a collaborative effort between
writers, producers, and stars. The star, of course is you! Let us help
you become so irresistible, that you'll have an overflowing Inbox and we'll help you find your dream date. Love can really be around the corner if you truly want it. Our friends at eHarmony are in the middle of a 10 day *F.R.E.E.* weekend that goes until August 1, 2010. Details are in the side of the Weekly Flirt. As always, thank you for sharing your online dating stories and let us know you like us on Facebook. Julie Spira

Woman's Day - How to Break up With Anyone
| 
From the gossipy colleague to the hairdresser and babysitter. How do you end a non-romantic relationship? In my recent interview in Woman's Day, I gave some tips on how to end these relationships as gracefully as possible.
Babysitter
No one likes a
nanny who leaves her employer in the lurch, so don't do the same by
dumping a caregiver you no longer like or need without so much as a
heads-up (though the story's much different if she's hurt your children
in any way). Assuming it's something benign, such as the fact that she
was great with your baby but you'd prefer someone more active with your
toddler, you'll have to be honest. Or honest-ish: "We're going to try
something new with Johnny, such as daycare." And be sure to give her
proper notice so she can find another job, says relationship and social
media expert Julie Spira.
Doctor
Whew: Here's one you really don't have to worry much about. Doctors
understand that things change (your insurance coverage, for example),
and, though they may have taken good care of you and your family, at the
end of the day they are professionals who are aware that people join
and leave practices all the time. Chances are you don't have to say
anything formal, says Spira. "The office staff may send a 'make an
appointment soon!' postcard, but that's it; in most cases, the doctor
may not even realize you left." Sad (in the sense that the days of the
home-visiting family doc are over), but true
Charity or Volunteer Group
It could be that you were gung-ho about the hospital fundraising board
but now find the meetings tedious-plus you've become more interested in
an arts group. Or, maybe you're simply stretched too thin. Whatever the
reason, don't quit abruptly; you don't want to alienate the people you
worked with (who could be good for networking down the line) or become
their newest subject of discussion-or gossip, says Spira. "Say, 'I've
enjoyed participating, but my interests (or available time) have
shifted, and I need/want to focus on [fill in the blank].'"
Housekeeper
You loved the woman who's been scrubbing your toilets and getting the
gunk off your stove for some time, but lately the house just isn't
that...sparkly any more. First thing you should do is be sure you didn't
do something to make her unhappy-like adding a huge addition to your
house and not giving her a raise, says Barreca. But if it's just a
not-working-out thing, "fall back on the bad economy to let her go,"
suggests Spira, and give notice as a courtesy.
Playgroup
There may come a time when your current playgroup, once vital to
your new-mom life, just doesn't fit your (or your kid's) needs any
longer. You don't want to make yourself the subject of gossip, so don't
make a dramatic exit, says Spira. Instead, "do the slow fade. Show up
less and less often as you gradually move into a new set of friends."
Book Club
There may come a time when your current playgroup, once vital to
your new-mom life, just doesn't fit your (or your kid's) needs any
longer. You don't want to make yourself the subject of gossip, so don't
make a dramatic exit, says Spira. Instead, "do the slow fade. Show up
less and less often as you gradually move into a new set of friends."
