The phrases ‘work wife’ and ‘work husband’ have entered our colloquial vernacular overnight. Who decided this is okay? Personally, I think it’s a little cringe. If you’re both single, it just comes off as immature and withholding. Just date if you are already calling them husband and wife. But if you’re in a relationship …it’s even weirder. Imagine calling a male friend, ‘second boyfriend,’ to your partner? This nomenclature isn’t meaningless. If it’s just friends, then why does their title imp…

Some people are more in tune with time than others. I personally have many friends that no matter how many times you remind them to get ready, or how much time you give them in advance, they will always be late. I choose to see it as endearing, knowing that they’re not doing it out of malice or immaturity. To be honest, it’s sometimes even cultural. Though countries like Japan and Germany run to the T, other countries aren’t as prompt in their adherence to time’s ticking clock. So what happens…

The dating world is a rough place. It’s not easy to be on the same terms as someone else, and you can be going along for a while until you realize you’re speaking different languages or have different expectations. To expect to be a priority in your partner’s life should be the bare minimum. It’s shocking how many relationships I know where one person isn’t getting their needs met, and the other acts as if they’re single. There’s no worse feeling than seeing your partner put someone else’s (non…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. For some people, food is their love language.

It can be a hard pill to swallow if your love language is cooking…

Sorry, and who might you be?

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. There are certain things that should come concomitantly with relationships. Trust and honesty are two crucial requirements for any healthy relationship, and without these foundations, a relationship is doomed to be in insecurity purgatory. Cheating, lying, and any other form of betrayal is likely to make someone walk away the instant they smell it. It begs the question, why do people keep doing it?

The 'closure' talk with your ex should happen before you get in a new relationship, not right before your wedding!

Welcome back Halloween queens and kings . For Halloween geeks who love dressing up, couple’s costumes are one of the most exciting parts about the holiday season and being in a relationship. Whether you want to be Harry and Ginny, Ratatouille and Linguine, The Joker and Harley Quinn or Mario and Peach, it’s wholesomely adorable to pretend you’re a different duo for the evening. A little cutesy dress up and role play never hurt anyone, right? It’s a special way to celebrate together, and an impo…

Instead of scrolling through dating apps, scroll through these classical art memes

When my boyfriend and I started dating, I refused to let him see me without makeup on. I was convinced that he would take one look at my face and run the other way, and I could not be more wrong. He never once cared whether or not I had mascara on, and complimented me non-stop, even first thing in the morning, which we all know is not a good look for anyone. No one should settle on a man who thinks makeup is essential to the relationship. The only reason one should put on makeup is if it makes…

The throes of dating aren't new to the 21st century

It's cozy season, time to hurry up and find that special fall somebody!
