Dear Mikko,

Why is it that men seem to come in only two extremes, either they are talking serious commitment after first coffee date or they’re just completely non-committal? Where’s the happy medium?

And the follow up question my friends and I have been asking lately is: “where’s the alpha male?” I dated this one guy a couple of years ago and we were hanging out at a restaurant having drinks. I went to the restroom and when I returned he told me that it looked like I had a message…

Okay, I’m sure you are well aware of the following scenario: You have gone out with this guy for a while, maybe just for a couple of dates, or maybe for a few weeks. But then, you don’t hear from him for a while. Maybe two days or a couple of weeks go by. It feels like there is a sudden lack of communication between you two.

Dear Mikko,

I recently went out on a first date with this wonderful guy. He took me to this nice restaurant and we had a great time. After the night was over, he agreed to call me over the next couple of days to plan another date. And he did. I was really excited.

However, because of our busy schedule, we could not find a time that suited both our schedules, since we are both busy professionals. So, he said he would just call later that week. Again, he…
