August is long gone, and the end of September is right around the corner, so basically... Halloween is tomorrow. This means it's time to start (pumpkin) spicing up your social media, and these Halloween-inspired Tinder bios are the perfect place…

Everyone handles breakups differently. Some people like to cry it out, some like to dance it out, and others like to deal with it alone, in their rooms, with TV and chocolate. Regardless of how you choose to cope with the wave of emotions you…

It's one thing for your partner to help you take care of your pet from time to time, but it's another thing entirely when you and your partner decide to get a pet together. Making that decision is a big step in any relationship. You're basically…

Life makes sense when there's balance; balance between work and play, between your friends and your partner, between your feelings for your partner and their feelings for you. But when balance isn't met, life can get a little rocky — especially when…

A lot of celebrity couples are easy to love, but Chrissy Teigen and John Legend take the cake. Their playful banter on Twitter, their too-adorable-to-handle pictures on Instagram, their constant encouragement of each other's careers — my heart is…

Fall is coming, and I cannot contain my excitement. As the countdown to October (aka Halloween month aka spooky month) begins, the most wonderful time of the year, IMO, is quickly approaching. It's a time that comes and goes before you can even take…

"You have to play hard to get." "You can't show them you're too interested." "You can't make it too easy." I've heard these statements over and over again as the key to winning someone over, and they've made me think, does seeming less interested…

You can see some celeb breakups coming from a mile away. Others may take you completely by surprise. According to Noah Cyrus and Lil Xan's body language before their split, we should've seen it coming, which was news to me. I was completely…

It's one of those things you may have heard over and over again: Make sure you pee after having sex if you want to avoid UTIs. If this is news to you, don't fret. (It was news to me, too.) But, even when you've made peeing after sex a routine, the…

From Big Daddy to Friends to The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and The Suite Life On Deck, I feel like the Sprouse twins have been a consistent part of my life. Like most of you, I'm guessing, I constantly go back and forth about which adorable twin is…

The beginning stages of a relationship can be super stressful. If they take two hours to reply to your message, do you take four? What do you wear on your first date? How do you know if you want the same things? It's often a lot to process in a…

Saying "I love you" to your partner for the first time can be simultaneously terrifying and amazing. After mulling over those three words for as long as you probably did, finally saying them and hearing them said back to you is incredibly euphoric —…

If you haven't dedicated an hour and 39 minutes of your life to To All The Boys I've Loved Before, do it. Do it right now. If not for the storyline of two high schoolers whose fake relationship leads to them to actually fall for each other, at least…

Anyone who’s used a dating app knows the feeling: You swipe on someone gorgeous, and all you hope to see is "It’s a match!" But without the perfect message in your inbox, all that excitement can go right down the drain. No one craves a message that…

The idea of couples' therapy can be scary for some people, but it doesn't have to be. Couples' therapy is an incredible tool meant to help you and your partner be your best selves in your relationship and in life. Think of couples' therapists as the…
