Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Weddings are usually a day of celestial celebrations, dancing, drinking, and loved ones surrounding you.

One got to have a kitten growing up, and the other didn’t. One got to go to acting lessons, but not the other.

Single and ready to stay single and have some PEACE during these cold months.

Couples' feelings about signing a prenup before getting married are mixed and varied. On one hand, we all know the divorce rate, and how hard it has become to maintain a healthy and happy marriage, which means that people want to be prepared in case that happens to them. On the other hand, signing a prenup comes with some sort of statement that says – ‘There is a small part of me that doesn’t think this relationship is going to last', and no matter how small that part is, it can still be regard…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. When you fall in love and get married, you adopt not only your partner into your life, but you also adopt his family. You become so intermingled that you may even refer to your in-laws as ‘mom and pop.’ The close familial bond can be beautiful, and you may find yourself with a whole new set of family members who have your back when times get tough. Your mother-in-law could be like your second mother – nurturing, loving, and a shoulder to cry on…
