Most Useful Books for a Healthy Relationship Every Couple Should Read
I remember the time a book saved my life. It was called, My First 2,000 Men, by Liz Renay. At the time, I was in an abusive relationship with someone who would slut-shame me for having lovers in my past. Today, I would have gotten up and left. Since I was only 18, I didn't know any better.

Dating Cleanse
One of my biggest wake ups I had recently is that I noticed dating is no longer exciting to me. It’s become extremely difficult to develop feelings for anyone! I would go on a date, have some good laughs and drinks, say goodbye… or hookup… and then I would lose interest by the next morning. At first, I thought “maybe I just need to stick it out longer, and then my feelings will grow for them,” (like I did with my first long term relationship) but that didn’t work… Instead I grew more annoyed with each guy and didn’t care for them at all.

How To Get Past the Fake It Till You Make It Phase
We’ve all heard it before. “Fake it till you make it!” Most success, dating, and life coaches I know believe (or at least pretend to believe) in the "fake it till you make it" approach. As a result of that, most guys on various dating forums believe that they just have to fake being an awesome guy in order to become one.

Questions to Ask on a First Date
Dating can be awkward. In fact, it totally is awkward — especially if it's online dating. You're meeting some random person you picked off the net for coffee, and you're supposed to act like you've known each other for ages. Or, something. It's hard to tell with modern dating.

What to Expect When Moving in with Your Partner
Whether you wait 6 years or 6 days to move in with a partner, you will learn a lot about them and yourselves as a couple. I moved in with my partner pretty much after 3 weeks but “officially” 3 months. AKA I moved EVERYTHING from my mum's house to his.

Feeling Alone Together
When you first meet, there is no warning. You had hoped to find a man that was smart, successful, and focused on the future. And there he is. He works hard and gets what he wants. He has big plans for the future, and is gracious enough to invite you along. At first, this will seem exciting, until life doesn't go this way and you become an obstacle. There are some signs your "man in charge" is just entitled, and what may be causing it.

Signs a Shy Guy Likes You
When it comes to shy guys, it's actually pretty hard to tell if they like you or not, because they're just so quiet! They're not like most guys who are very outgoing, loud, and straightforward if they like someone. But I have to admit, shy guys are pretty cute. You can just tell how innocent and caring they are... not so much innocent (sometimes), but they certainly do care for those they love. Even though they don't say much, they hold so many thoughts and secrets that you would never believe. After talking to a shy guy for a while, you might leave thinking he's actually not that shy.
