How to Treat Your Number One to Make Her Feel Like Your Number One
1. Tell her three simple phrases. You are beautiful, you are smart, you are special. Sometimes you are left to send important little messages via text. Call them little love messages. Tell her "be safe," "I love you," and "hey babe I was just thinking of you, so I thought I’d say hi" and other such messages that you believe will put a smile on the face of your (put your nickname for her here). However, don’t underestimate the importance of three simple phrases. You are beautiful, you are smart, you are special.

How to Push Through the Breakup
I know. Breakups suck. Well, guess what? As hard as it is to admit it, they are necessary for you to become stronger as a person, and important for you to be able to really get to know yourself. "That's easy for you to say!" Yes, it is easy because I went through one as well, and I know the positive outcome of it. First, let me tell you my story. (If you want to skip the rather long story, just scroll down. I will put the lesson part of this article in CAPS so you don't have to scan through to hear me out.)

Subtle Gifts for the Person You Just Started Dating
Those first couple of months when you're just beginning to date can be pretty tricky to navigate, especially with gifting. Part of the reason why this is such a hard period to date is because it's really easy to accidentally give the impression that the relationship is going too fast.

10 Valentine's Day Gifts for Men, According to Men
I've never been asked what I wanted to do for Valentine's Day. I do assume, though, that it's a stereotypical novelty for the events of Valentine's Day to be a bit of a surprise each year. We mind-read a lot on V-Day, and while the men of the world grace us women with roses and chocolates each year, we women continue to wonder what is an acceptable gift for the men in our lives. Now this is not to say that roses and chocolates are the only acceptable gifts to give a woman on February 14. The truth is that there is no male equivalent for women to default to. Can't do ties, those are for Father's Day. A shaving kit... should that be more of a necessity? Will he think I'm trying to send him a message? It's a never-ending struggle to find a gift for your man to show him how much you love him. So I went on a bit of an internet-fueled hunt to find out if there were really any solid answers to what men wanted for Valentine's Day. I eventually stumbled upon this Reddit thread that shared a lot of great tips from men themselves about what the perfect V-Day gift is to them. Naturally, as a woman, I curiously cruised through the entire list. (oops-kinda.)If you are still unsure what the wonderful man of your life would like to receive this V-Day, I have some good news: they probably don't want anything at all. To confirm, here are replies from ten men on Reddit about what they're hoping for this February 14:

5 Habits of REAL Dating Millennials Need to Bring Back
It is 2018. With all of the progress we've made in every complicated scientific and technological field since 1950, you'd think we would have progressed in something as simple as dating... right? Oh sure, if a modern hookup culture full of "Wanna chill?" text messages, "hmu" DM's on Twitter, mindless swiping left on faces you find unattractive, and creepy un-wanted Facebook messages is what you call progress... then, yeah, we've made a lot of it. But personally, I find modern dating appalling. As a single 20-year-old living in this warped "Netflix and Chill" dating world, I've had a hard time finding anyone who actually knows how to DATE. I'm talking real dating. I'm talking how they use to do it back before cell phones made real life interactions seemingly impossible, and before finding hookups on dating apps consumed the mind of every teenager and young adult in America. So with that frustration in the back of my mind every day, I decided to compile a list of five "old fashioned" dating habits that we need to start doing again... like yesterday.
