Everyone gets hurt—damaged by someone else’s actions or offended by comments that shouldn’t have been made. Some individuals are the victims of a major breach in their relationships. This can leave you gasping in pain, particularly when the injury comes from your mate, your mother or your best friend. These are individuals to whom you’ve […]
No one just leaves a relationship, anymore. They torture each other for a while first. Most people don’t have a clue about how to break up or to do the reverse—fight productively. They don’t actually get anywhere, really. You’d probably like to be in a relationship where the two of you always get along and […]
We’re almost getting used to hearing about politicians who cheat on their wives. It seems crazy for them to do this when they have so much to lose. Yet, they continue to cheat. It’s not just politicians, either. Cheating is rampant. You probably know friends who’ve cheated…or been cheated on. Maybe both. You may have […]
If you’ve ever been cheated on, you might want to answer “Never!” to this question. But a lot of people are being unfaithful to their partners and they’re not all terrible people with no morals. Some are just confused and making unfortunate choices. In some situations, cheating can seem like the best thing to do. […]
Most people are confused about what’s love and what isn’t. You may have a rush of heat when a man walks in. Maybe love’s scary and exciting, like sky diving. Or safe and comforting, like a fire in the fireplace on a cold night. Not everyone wants the same kind of love. There are some […]

Most people don’t want to do this at all. Breaking-up sucks…unless you’re so beaten down in the relationship that getting out sounds like a huge relief. Or unless you’ve already moved on and you’ve found a new love that won’t ever treat you this badly(you’re sure). Relationships are complicated. So, this whole thing isn’t fun. […]
Some relationships start crappy, others take years to reach this level. The really sad thing is that sometimes individuals don’t want to stop the bad, comfortable habits until it’s too late. Most don’t seek professional help until the next step is calling a lawyer. If you found your soul mate—or a very close fit—you happily […]
The Golden Rule has serious limitations. Sometimes, doing unto others the way you want done unto you is a huge mistake. You might not care for Valentine’s Day. It may seem like a pointless, made-up holiday created by florists and chocolatiers to rip off as many suckers as possible. Maybe the last token of love […]
It’s like the fish that got away…. Former lovers. Past relationships that fizzled out or exploded in a blaze of broken hearts. Whether you found each other again at a high school reunion or hooked up once more on MySpace, the temptation to go back to a love from days past can be strong. Ending […]
