This short list could save a marriage or two.

"You stare blankly at me. Again. 'What can I do?' you ask. Again. I'm tired of delegating and constantly giving what I feel like are 'orders.' You're a great dad, a great man. You work hard. 'He's such a nice guy!' they always say. They're right—you are. But I'm at my breaking point."

A favorite column comes to the screen. Love at its finest. ❤️

We had a good cry, both happy and sad, over these moments in Amazon's new series, Modern Love.

Love this column and in particular, this one. What a lovely, selfless woman she was. Her daughter and husband went on to finish two children’s books...”Dear Girl” and “Dear Boy.”

Albert Einstein (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955) is perhaps best known for being a theoretical physicist and for receiving the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to Theoretical Physics". A lesser known fact about arguably one of the most intelligent men of modern times is that he was als...

And of course to those you love :) Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!

Lovelies, it is easy to get caught up in the Christmas whirlwind and strive for perfection. But remember that not every meal, table scape or wrapped gift etc. will look or needs to be magazine or insta worthy! Keep in mind all that we have and how lucky we are! 🙌🏻 Even if the tree keels over or the roast is blown away! ❤️🎄

Empathy, controlling YOUR OWN emotions & overlooking traits you don’t like.

I'm all for committed relationships and healthy marriages but don't beat yourself up if your are single. You are in charge of your own happiness no matter your relationship status. Here's to focusing on yourself in 2018.

It was a banner year for the publication of massive studies challenging what we thought we knew about single people's supposedly inferior life voyages.

A very long article...cliff notes would be nice. For all that was written here from the renowned love experts...it all comes down to "destiny." I wasn't expecting that and yet I was.

Scientists believe they've discovered a simple formula for happy relationships. Reader, I tried it.

If you are the Empath, know that there is something better out there for you. Controlling someone is not loving them. When you finally understand that YOUR well being and emotional needs matter, you can move on. For the narcissist, they think everything is "fine" because the Empath has always appeased them and it was impossible to detect any problem in the relationship. The Empath does have a breaking point and when they reach it, it leaves their partner thinking how did this happen to me?

Sara Malamud thank you for sharing this. I would say it is what we are all seeking. That "Safe Harbor."

The Ted Talk attached to this article by Ester Perel is great. What do people desire today? A passionate marriage of course! BUT...responsibility and desire butt heads! The comments about why couple fight was very interesting and true: "It's never the differences between the couple that is the problem-it has little to do with the CONTENT." "They fight because they feel unheard, disrespected, devalued and not acknowledged." "They feel ALONE" Want to figure out how to create or re-create the desire in your long-term relationship? This article/ Ted Talk sums it up pretty good I think.

Some of your most basic beliefs about intimacy are all wrong.

Was it symbolic that I had the worst stomach bug of my life on New Years Eve? I was literally purging any remnants of 2016. I awoke feeling like my body was a clean vessel and vowed to fill it with only the things; food, relationships or work that serve me and make me happy. My mother has always given me the following advice: 1) If you don't think it's beautiful or useful, get rid of it 2) What other people think of you is none of your business 3) No man is looking at your shoes 4) Your day will go the way the corners of your mouth turn 5) If you aren't going to be upset by something 5 years from now, let it go 6) Just Ask (for the upgrade, the business, the favor), most people genuinely like to help
Out with the old, in with the new. Do what serves YOU and quit what doesn't. The rest will fall into place. You are strong, you are loved and you are never alone. God bless and Happy 2017!

I hope in the New Year, you quit lying to yourself about what you really want and find the courage to go after it.

Phubbing...note to self & everyone else I know!

Researchers measured "phubbing," how often your partner is distracted by his or her phone in your presence, and found that phones are real relationship downers.
