Adam FerraraTechnology and the Internet have created a new set of relationships. It's changed the social fabric of promotion: advertising, dating.

Noel WellsThe only dating advice I have to offer is: Expect the guys in your life to be kind and respectful. Don't make excuses for garbagey behavior-'Oh, that's just what guys are like.'
