I Interviewed 46 Men Who Cheated. This Is What I Learned.

Cheating on a partner is not something many people readily admit to, so it’s near-impossible to put any exact figures on the issue. One study might definitively say it happens in 70 percent of all marriages, while an independent expert could suggest it happens in anywhere from 20 to 60 percent of relationships. However, while (again) the percentages vary wildly, there is one common theme running through all of these statistics: men tend to cheat more than women. Professor Ali

Why Men Aren’t Flirting With You?

Some red flags dudes may see that you don’t. I’ve often heard the phrase, “It’s so hard to meet guys.” Or similar sentiments from my lovelorn friends. Yet there are so many people looking for love in the same city, town, or small English hamlet. So from where does this belief that it is impossible to meet anyone in the real world arise? Have you ever felt the same way? Sorry to break it to you, but you are mostly likely part of the problem. Without meaning to you’ve sabotaged

3 Signs A Relationship Isn’t Worth Your Emotional Investment

Your time — and your feelings — have value. You haven’t known each other very long, but you’ve been going out, and it’s been fun. You’re getting excited about this guy, perhaps you’re developing feelings for him already. But should you? Should you let yourself become emotionally invested in him? It might not be too early to tell, especially if you pay attention to the signs. I know these signs well because I’ve seen them up close. I’ve lived through them, and I understand how

There’s no such thing as ‘not my type’ in dating, study says

New dating data is making a case for the bemoaned “blind date.” People who believe they have a “type” are fooling themselves, according to social psychology researchers who say that singles “might as well let a stranger pick their dates.” This is because most people are looking for more general positive qualities in a love interest, such as “kind” and “intelligent” personalities, the researchers from the University of California, Davis, write. These qualities could be present

29 Thoughts I’ve Had Since Moving In With My Boyfriend

My boyfriend and I made the mad decision to share a place of residence about four months ago (just over a year into our relationship). We merged eggcup collections, bought new sheets, adopted a puppy. We made bottom-dents in our sofa, crowded the shower floor with bottles, learned to wake up together each morning. If you’ve ever lived with a partner, you know all the little joys and quirks and squabbles. If you haven’t — well, please enjoy a chronological succession of the th

Seduction Strategies Don’t Lead to Love — These Skills Do

The real skills of dating are about intimacy, not seduction. The search for love is one of our greatest life-tasks.

In the land of dating, the rewards can be p

How will dating change after coronavirus?

The dating scene could be a confusing place in world where at least some social distancing seems likely for the foreseeable future. And while many people will have maintained or begun contact with romantic partners online during lockdown, video chats and text messages are clearly not a long-term substitute for intimate (or even non-intimate) physical contact. To see how these sex differences were evident in online opposite-sex dating, we conducted a study in which participant

Your Relationship Will Improve If You Stop Texting This One Way

Use it for information, not communication. A couple of years ago, my now husband and I attended a workshop for couples aptly titled “Rules of Engagement.” It would be at this very workshop where we’d learn something that would change how we both viewed texting and help improve communication within our relationship. At least twenty couples were present at this workshop, all of different ages, races, ethnicities, religions, and orientations. Some were engaged, and some, like my

How To Make A Relationship Last

If you ask people what “the key to making a relationship last” is, some of the most common answers you’ll get are: “communication” “trust” “respect” But, those are not the secrets Many people struggle with emotional boundaries — what’s theirs, what’s their partner’s — and think “sharing” is the same as “solving,” as though “talking about it” means it’ll be “fixed.” They then struggle with anxiety and passive-aggressiveness — especially when, shocker, “communication” alone doe

I Did a Virtual Dating Event While Quarantining. This Is What It Was Like.

If you'd told me just a week ago that I would be telling my yoga instructor, via Zoom, that I had to "run-off" from our online class because I was late to a virtual dating event, I would have said you'd seen too many dystopian movies. But that's where we are. New York City—where I live—isn't sheltering in place just yet, but large gatherings have been canceled, shops and restaurants have shuttered, and we've all been urged to maintain social distance and stay home for the for
