My boyfriend of five years just broke up with me. We talked about taking a break a month prior, and things were actually OK between us, but then, all of a sudden, he deleted and blocked me from all his social media. He says very little about why, and that’s it. He will not talk […]
In news that is relevant to anyone who has ever been drunk, sober, or has sent a text message, psychology professor Bruce Bartholow created a study to figure out if we actually mean what we say when we’re drunk, reports News.com.au. Spoiler: Drunk words are exactly our sober thoughts. Bartholow came to these findings by […]
Why give up sex for a year? I just got to the stage where it wasn’t sitting well with me, sleeping around and partying and drinking. I think it was just getting to the stage of growing up, to be brutally honest. I was 32 and really probably ready to settle down and find someone […]
1. Communicate a lot Every conversation doesn’t have to be a deep one. Sometimes it’s nice to just check in to see how your other half is doing. Emails and texts also apply. Feeling flirty? Send a sexy emoticon (yes, they do exist) for a little fun. 2. Make time for outside friends When you […]
Saying sorry isn’t always easy, so here are some tips: 1. The best way to apologize is “quick and intense,” according to Dr. Grenier. The longer you wait to apologize, the longer you prolong a conflict. 2. Don’t say you’re sorry if you don’t mean it. “Apologies have to be real,” says Morris. They have […]
1. The childhood crush: Recess spent hugging and hand-holding inevitably ended in heartbreak or humiliation when she bashfully rebuffed your French kiss advances and/or moved to an obscure state in a different time zone. 2. The celeb crush: Maybe their faces didn’t cover our lunch boxes and notebooks like they did for so many girls, […]

I sincerely hope they aren’t all based on true stories. #WorstWayToDumpSomeone Have someone give them a note saying it’s over #WorstWayToDumpSomeone Have @NewtGingrich serve them […]
Fact is, those of us who are separated or divorced like to say that things just “weren’t meant to be”, that we were with a person for as long as we were “supposed to be” with them, and then we moved on rightfully. That’s cool. I can’t argue with anyone’s tale. However, it’s pretty obvious […]
1. Make the first move. Guys can’t read your mind, and it gets tiring risking rejection. “I love a girl who’ll take charge, knows what she wants, and isn’t afraid to say it,” says one man. One great way to make the first move is to just “unbutton my shirt and start feeling me,” suggests […]
My new theory: Maybe having wild sex doesn’t require brains at all. There are times when I just wish I was straight-up dumber than a coffee cup of squirrel crap. This mostly has to do with the fact that I’m starting to believe that the dumbest people are having the best sex. Seriously. Think about […]
There are minor relationship slip-ups, like when your boyfriend accidentally deletes the season premiere of The Real Housewives of New Jersey from your DVR. They may make you want to take a vow of celibacy in the moment but are easily forgivable in the near future. Then there are the earth-shattering blunders that are much […]
Don’t Date This Guy: The One Who’s Lazy in Bed He apparently doesn’t know the golden rule, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” applies to sex too. First of all, focusing on each other’s pleasure is part of what makes sex so great. Plus, it says loads about him if […]
