I swear there was a 15 year long period of my life when it seemed like every single one of my friends was dealing with infertility. It was sad for everyone and broke my heart to feel so helpless when my friends were struggling. Infertility is a problem many couples face, but few share publicly. Of course, I don’t blame anyone for that. It’s an emotional rollercoaster and I understand wanting to keep something that fraught private. But, the privacy of the struggle can lead to relationship issues with no one to turn to for advice. Read more
Relationships can be wonderful because you get double the joy, double the friends and double the fun. It’s a double-edged sword though, because you also get double the stress, double the pain and double the anxiety. As much as his dreams coming true mean your dreams come true, his suffering is also your suffering. It’s a big commitment to emotionally partner with someone because of these lows.

It becomes even more difficult when your man is in the dumps and you need support for something tough yourself. Here’s how to deal. Read more

Friends disagree, bicker and get into fights. That’s just part of being close to someone. When you spend a lot of time with someone and, in the immortal words of Real World, stop being polite and start getting real, there’s undoubtedly going to be friction. It’s a hard truth of friendship. And as supportive and involved as your man is of you and your life, he should not get involved. I know, he’s the most important person in your life. Why should he butt out of the biggest drama in your life? Well, here’s why. Read more
It's been a few weeks or maybe even a few months and you think you're finally over your ex. But, how can you be sure? You can't go to the guy's house, ring his doorbell and when he answers, kiss him to see if you have any feelings. Or, you could, but you'd probably get served with a restraining order soon after.

If you don't know that it's election season, I'd like to know what rock you've been hiding beneath. For us non-rock people, we’re in the thick of primary season. It feels like there’s a primary or caucus every day at this point and a debate at least once a week.
