It Takes a Stronger Person to Leave

Self-love gives you the courage to walk away Most of us have been in situations where we’ve loved someone enough to work hard at keeping the relationship moving forward and hurdling through all obstacles. Others of us have made the decision to throw in the towel, knowing that loving ourselves is much more important than continuing to deal with a relationship that brings more negative feelings than positive. I’m in the group that threw in the towel. My ex and I had a child tog

6 Signs Your Partner’s Playing Mind Games With You

These are the games you don’t want to play. Are they in? Or out? Do they want to see me? Or not? Am I wasting my time? Or do I need to hang in there? Let’s be honest, a little game playing goes on at the start of most relationships as you test the water, gauge interest and try to figure out what’s going on. But ongoing mind games can drive you crazy with frustration. Because when the ground beneath you keeps shifting, it can feed an anxiety that never quite goes away. My part

How Do I Know If I’m In Love?

Because most of “the signs” they tell you are garbage If you try to Google “how to know you’re in love,” you’re gonna have a bad time It also doesn’t involve fear of “never being with another woman.” I don’t even know what that is. Low self-esteem? Lack of conviction? Here’s a small sampling: “They’re always on your mind” This is infatuation. If someone’s “always” on your mind, you’re not focused on other Really Important Things and that’s a problem. Real love fits into real

The Right Person Will Hold Space For You

Finding the right person, especially in today’s modern dating world, is pretty fucking difficult.

I Cheated on My Boyfriend While He Was in the Other Room

It’s still the worst thing I’ve ever done This is the story of how I lost myself and broke a heart. He didn’t deserve it. He loved me in armfuls. He loved me so hard and so fully that he took that love and continued to dump it onto me. Load by load. Until finally, I couldn’t move at all. We met in college. We met after I had felt my heart ripped out of my chest by the boy I thought would be in my life forever. We met at my own apartment where our friends giggled off to the si

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

The One Thing Men Want More Than Sex

It happens to be the one thing women find hard to give. How many times have we heard the phrase, “All men want is sex?” When I was 17 years old I was sure it was true. When I was 37 years old, I suspected it might not be true. And now that I’m 73 years old, I know it’s not true. Now don’t get me wrong, sex can be wonderful at any age, but there’s something that is more important than sex, but it’s something that men have difficulty admitting and women have difficulty giving.

What It’s Like Being Married to a Sex Addict

Things I know now I wish I knew then I received an email today from a woman. A stranger. She wanted to know if my last marriage was to a sex addict. Unfortunately, it was. I discovered the truth two months after I’d married him. She, then, shared she likewise had the misfortune of marrying someone with the same addiction. “Should I stay or should I leave?” she wrote. I vividly remember asking this same question. And, like her, I reached out for help and called a friend. “He’s
