10 Sentiments You Didn't Know Were Toxic in Relationships

This is one of those topics where you’re going to want to shoot the messenger. Two things: I’m still going to keep it real and I’m bullet proof. (just kidding) But seriously, we all have those relationship dynamics that we think are perfectly normal that “everyone goes through”. Unfortunately, some of us have been making excuses for toxic relationship practices with our acceptance of these dynamics. Have you been supporting toxic romantic dynamics in your relationships?

5 Reasons Why Having a Hot Girl Summer is a Necessity

When a woman announces that she’s planning to have a “hot girl summer” (HGS), most men interpret that as her freely sleeping with any man she wants (with no remorse). Typical. While the thought of a woman owning her sexuality may sound threatening to the fragile male ego… that’s not what a hot girl summer is about. There’s much more to it. I would say a hot girl summer is a necessity—a reset of inner power. The coiner of the phrase, Megan Thee Stallion, even said it’s about “

What You REALLY Should be Looking for in a Man

Pretty teeth. Nice hair. Strong jawline. A beard that connects. We typically have a mostly vain list of what we’re looking for in a man, but what is it that we really NEED? Is the reason you haven’t found the right match because you’re looking for all the wrong things? That could definitely be a possibility. The real question is: What SHOULD you be looking for? While I don’t know your personal needs, I can give you a starting point with 6 characteristics you should look for i

5 Unspoken Dating Rules Everyone Should Know

It’s possible to land a date, go out, and get NO callback. The dating world is extremely fickle right now and while petty has been a characteristic heavily thrown on women, men have joined the party. I would say that men are JUST as petty as the women now and THAT means one wrong move on a date and you could be permanently dismissed. I have mixed emotions about this, but I also don’t want you jeopardizing a potential connection by doing any of these 5 things on a date (or in

9 Lies You Tell Yourself When a Good Guy is Pursuing You

Some of us can talk ourselves out of a GOOD man. I mean… easily. It’s probably automatic for the chronic skeptics. When you think about it, it’s actually pretty sad. A guy can be doing almost everything right and our gut reaction is to wonder “who sent him” or try to pick him apart to find out what’s “wrong” with him (because there’s gotta be something, right?). Life has taught too many of us to be super skeptics in the love department. While it’s not entirely your fault as a

5 Phrases That Make Men Leave Your Dating Profile Instantly

Everybody’s not amazing at getting out there and meeting new people. Some career-driven people are actually pretty terrible at it. As a result of that, a lot of singles have resorted to online dating as a way of meeting their potential spouse (or maybe someone to have fun with temporarily). Either way, if you’ve created a dating profile, the goal is to peak someone’s interest. The last thing you want to do is put a word or phrase that screams red flag to the person viewing yo

8 Signs YOU’RE the Reason You’re Still Single

Self-reflection is hard. (…especially when it leads to the conclusion that YOU have been in your own way) No matter how hard it may be; self-reflection is necessary and required more often for some people. If you’ve found that all your relationships have gone up in flames or somehow fizzled out before they could really mature, self-reflection may just be the next logical step in figuring out how to exist in a relationship. While relationships aren’t for everybody, if you’re l

5 Ways You’ve Been Helping Your Cheating Exes

So, you’re in the boat with most of the world and you have an ex that cheated. Sadly, it’s more common than not, but it’s also common to wonder if you did something to help the cheating along. First, let me just say it’s NEVER your fault when someone else cheats on you. Let’s start there. We can do everything right, but if you’re dating a cheater, they’re still going to cheat. This is not about preventing them from cheating, but more about highlighting ways we probably made i

How to Break a Soul Tie

Alright. I’ll try not to make this a weirdo energy vibe post, BUT I’ll have my moments and you’ll still love me for them. With that being said, we’ve all (or maybe it’s just me) had an unfortunate situation in which we’ve found ourselves with an unwanted soul tie. What’s a soul tie? It’s what happens when you stay in a relationship with someone for a while or when you allow yourself to physically connect deeply with a person. It’s the conjoining of the soul indefinitely. You

4 Chill Ways to Respond to His Criticisms

Everybody wants to believe that they are the most flawless partner on this side of heaven, but face it—we all have our flaws. It can be tough to hear criticism about ourselves (no matter how constructive it is). Most of us instantly put up walls and refuse to receive any message that isn’t a glowing review. If that sounds like you, sis… you’re hustling backward! You should WANT to hear how you can self-improve (not for anyone else, but you). No matter how whiny it may come of

8 Valentine’s Day Date Spots That WON’T Be Crowded

One of the hardest things about planning a date on Valentine’s day is figuring out a place that’s not going to be JAM PACKED. Everybody buys into the day and pushes the issue of going out “showing” their love. (Don’t worry I’m lumped right into that massive group of people.) Every year I try to think of something other than typical restaurants and cliché dates where we may have a chance of getting in and out in a decent hour.

On the surface, it seems like it would be a dream come true, but let me just tell you: you really just want a guy that’s observant.

9 Signs You May Be Overextending as a Girlfriend

You know how jobs want you to do the work of the next level for a while before they give you the promotion? Well, a lot of men are like that too. Somehow, it’s easier for us to start looking for a better job and/or tell the job to kiss it than it is for us to do with our significant others. It’s completely understandable. There are no emotional ties to our jobs (for the most part) and it’s easier to see the benefits of going elsewhere. With our men it’s a different ball game

#TBT: Celebrity couples that seemed perfect together, but nah...

First, let me put the disclaimer out there. I'm a walking throwback. I live for 90s/2000s nostalgia, so I'm hoping to trigger a little bit of nostalgia for you. My next disclaimer is obvious or something you already know if you frequent these posts… I’m somewhat of a hopeless romantic. Even when I was a young girl, I was here for these couples (or their stories at least)! I loved them together and maybe even went through a bit of mourning when they broke up (or I mourned thei

5 Criteria to use to Choose Your Perfect Romantic Candidate

I couldn’t resist. In this super political climate, I just had to find a way to compare it to something a little more lighthearted—dating. Some of us do our research regarding voting in government elections and some of us just stick with a party affiliation and choose from there. Regarding dating, it’s not wise to stick to a certain “affiliation”. We would be wise to do our research when choosing our perfect romantic candidate.
