AWKWARD: MAN'S DATING FRUSTRATIONSIf you've been out of the dating world for a while, know this: No one talks on the phone anymore. Entire relationships are formed, developed, nurtured, and sometimes ended through texting.

And crafting genius texts can be TOUGH...especially in the early part of the relationship, where one wrong word or unsexy emoticon can derail everything.

In a new survey by "TSB Magazine", single men said that not knowing what to say in texts is actually THE most frustrating aspect of dating right now. Here's the full list...


#1.) Not knowing what to say in texts.

#2.) Bad or boring conversation on dates.

#3.) Awkwardness trying to go for the first kiss.

#4.) Approaching women in the first place.

#5.) Having women see you as a friend, not a love interest.

#6.) Hitting it off with a woman but then finding out she's interested in someone else.











TOP BABY NAMESThe Social Security Administration released their annual list of the most-popular baby names, and for the first time since 1948, Michael is NOT in the top five. It finished number six and was bumped out by...Mason.

The popularity of Mason is probably thanks to Kourtney Kardashian, since that's what she named her baby boy. Here are the ten most popular names for BOYS.


#1.) Jacob. (This is the 13th straight year Jacob has been #1.)

#2.) Mason.

#3.) William.

#4.) Jayden.

#5.) Noah.

#6.) Michael.

#7.) Ethan.

#8.) Alexander.

#9.) Aiden.

#10.) Daniel.


The boys' names that saw the biggest jump in popularity were Brantley...which moved up 416 spots in the rankings...and Iker, Maximiliano, and Zaiden.

The biggest DROP in popularity among boys' names was for Brett, which fell 119 spots. Jamarion, Shaun, and Jaydon also plunged more than 100 spots.

Here are the ten most popular names for GIRLS...


#1.) Sophia. (Up from #2 last year.)

#2.) Isabella.

#3.) Emma.

#4.) Olivia.

#5.) Ava. (Which means the top five names for girls all end in 'a'.)

#6.) Emily.

#7.) Abigail.

#8.) Madison.

#9.) Mia.

#10.) Chloe.


The girls' names outside the top 10 that had the biggest increase in popularity were Briella, Angelique, Aria, and Mila. (I'm going to assume they were thinking of Mila Kunis. I am...most of the time.)

Brisa fell the most in the girls' rankings, followed by Dana, Desiree, and Denise.








JENNIFER LOPEZJENNIFER LOPEZ still hasn't decided if she wants to return for another season of "American Idol". On "Ellen" yesterday, she said, "I really do enjoy it...now this is my second year...I don't know if I can go for a third year.

"I miss doing other things. It really does lock you down, which was nice the first year with the babies being three, but now they're getting more mobile, they're about to go into school...so I just don't know."

Meanwhile, in another new interview, J-Lo's 25-year-old boyfriend CASPER SMART talked about his relationship with J-Lo for the first time.

He said, "It was really professional for a very long time before anything even happened. It kinda just spontaneously happened I guess. The chemistry was there. You can't fight it...we're just enjoying our lives right now."









UNCOMFORTABLE
There's a VERY tight battle between the top two things women REALLY don't want to talk about with you.

According to a new survey, women are SLIGHTLY more uncomfortable talking about SEX than talking about THEIR BOWELS. But it's close.

30% of women said sex is the most uncomfortable conversation topic, 29% said constipation and other things related to their extended time on the toilet.

When women DO talk about their bowels, they're more likely to talk to other women than men.

Only 7% of women who would talk to a man would tell anyone but their husband or boyfriend.










WINE TIME?I guess it's refreshing to know that whether you're on a first date, or eating dinner with your wife of 50 years, it takes the EXACT same thing to end the night with some sweet sexual relations. And that thing is...WINE.

According to a new survey, both men and women...whether they're single or in a relationship...said wine was the best tool to quickly get in the mood for sex. Here are a few other results from the survey...

50% of men and 43% of women have talked dirty over the phone.

Almost twice as many women say hearing "I love you" turns them on more than hearing "You're so hot."

38% of people in relationships say they fantasize about their significant other. Which is a lot. BUT...38% also fantasize about a celebrity, 19% fantasize about a coworker, and 8% fantasize about a friend's spouse.
