CHICAGO – Dating is getting more difficult as the years go by and there are a number of coaches who are trying to help out both men and women find love.

During the “9@9” on Monday, we shared some advice for someone looking for a man, and specific advice on what to avoid if you’re looking for that special someone.

That suggestion from the dating coach was one of a few topics we covered during the segment, including knitting vs crocheting, 1980s fashion plates, no-mess snacks, an anniversary for a Madonna song, and more.

You can watch the entire “9@9” from February 27 WGN Morning News in the video above.
