No regrets about having kids? Maybe it’s time we all came clean.

Is it possible that talking about your relationship less could actually be the key to making it better? Sometimes, stop talking and just let yourselves be.

Sometimes you have to let go of your dreams. As the years go by, you come to the realization that who you are now is pretty much who you’ll be forever.

Pretending you don’t have feelings doesn’t pay off.

How do you deal with feeling lonely; are you okay with having alone time?

My whole life, people have been telling me I’m “too much." It's BS.

Reading in bed together, while it might not be a major milestone — like marriage or having children — truly is a significant event in a relationship.

Parents — we’re the worst.

Never ask a Libra where they want to go for dinner.

As a person who writes about relationships for a living, I might be one of the people least in need of all this well-meaning advice, which usually amounts to clichés and can even veer into the territory of outright insults. What I need – what most of us need – is for people to hear me, and to trust me.
