What to Do After a Breakup
Most likely, you are reading this because you're going through a breakup or still can't get over an ex. Whether you've been through a breakup or not, this will help you get over any man. First off, if you're sad, most likely he broke up with you, but don't worry you're going to be ok. The first step of getting over a breakup is deleting his number and deleting him on all of your social media accounts, don't continue following him on social media after a breakup. The reason you don't want to do this is because you're going to see all his stuff, whether it's him getting a new girlfriend or just hanging out with friends. Let's all be honest here, the hardest part of a breakup is seeing the person, especially if it is face to face. For example, to get over the guy you can't watch his Snapchat stories anymore, you're only going to make yourself more upset. Next step is deleting all the pictures, this might be the hardest part because you see all the happy memories. Doing all of this is like pulling off a band-aid, painful but fast. Also, delete all those pictures because, yes, they were happy memories but you're going to be able to make new ones. I should've put this as the first and last step but it can be applied anywhere. After breaking up you need to go out with your girls. I don't care how many of your friends you go out with and I don't care where you go, just go. This is going to be the most freeing and healing part. Your girls are always going to support you, go out, have fun, get dressed up, and go crazy. Also, don't sit around at home because all you're going to do is think about him, thinking about him at all is going to be the worst thing to do. Also, be there for your girls when they go through breakups! Be the friend who gets them to let go and flirt with a guy, or be an even better friend and hook them up with a nicer guy! Breaking up is hard but it's not as hard when your around people who are fun and support you. These girls love you a lot and most likely if they are your true friends they are going to be right there with you bashing him. Also, be with your girls when you delete his number because right when you get sad they are going to be right there hugging you. Also, if you're 21 and over, I recommend going out to a bar, not a trashy bar though. Trashy bars are where you meet guys who only want to hookup and honestly, hooking up with a guy when your sad only makes you sadder. Getting under someone new to get over someone is not a thing don't do or try it. Go to a nice bar and sit down you never know who you will meet. Also, since I just experienced this last night I can give you another place to not meet a guy. Don't meet a guy at a carnival, don't even think you're going to meet a guy at a carnival. Almost all the guys there are going to be dads who are either with their kids or families. I guess you could say in conclusion, always have your girls with you after a breakup, delete his number and social media, delete the pictures, and delete him from your life! Go and live your life because girl, you deserve to be happy whether that's with or without him! I hope you find someone to make you even happier than he made you because you deserve that and trust me you will get over this! As always, make sure you love yourself!

The Marriage Contract. Top Story - May 2018.
I am an old guy. I have been around the block more times than I can remember. Even still, I thought about sitting at a table one night to compose my bucket list. Take part in an Olympic sport. Get my doctorate degree. Meet a Pope. You guessed it. I would put on it all the things I once fantasized about; things that seemed too far-fetched to accomplish. There is only one thing that will never reside on my bucket list—marriage. I'd have a much better time if I had put down "Walking on Mars on my list. I'd have a much better chance of reaching those goals.

What Exactly Is Free Will and Does It Truly Exist?
Free will is a concept that people can make their own choices. Are choices actually real or are they just a figment of the imagination? Recently, I made a decision that I greatly regret. There were so many external factors involved that half of me thought that perhaps I didn't have any free will to make that decision.

Sowing the Seeds of Self Love
Hating my husband has turned out to be the best thing to happen to me. No, I’m not sadistic (much). Hating him has forced me to seek out my own happiness and to pursue a different mindset. Hating him has made me realize the amount of self hate I’ve been dragging around for decades. Hating him has made me learn to love myself.

A Brighter Mind
Coffee becomes cool, cigarettes burn out, the music stops playing, books come to an end, metals rust, conversations run dry, and sunlight dies; the same way that his affection made you feel loved, the way his words made you feel heard, his eyes made you feel existent...everything comes to an end. Why is it that when I think of him, I self-destruct and love myself a little less? With the slightest touch from his hand, my heart would cringe, but as a ghost from my past, he obliterates me, and the only way to deal with it is through alcohol that tastes like hell and drugs that mess with my mind. Every bit of hope was lost. I disregarded every moral that I believed in and stripped myself of any love that I've felt.

Let Him Go, Sis...
Don't be fooled, ladies. If these f*ckboys put all their effort into acting like Mr. Nice Guy on the big screen, as they do in front of us...Oscars all around, because bravo! Now, I may not be the f*ckboy expert. However, I've had my way with one too many of them that it's probably more beneficial to share my relatable experiences, and spread awareness rather than laying in bed sulking in sadness and eating vegan Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. We're better than that, right ladies? Thus, I hope to dawn a bad b*tch attitude on each and every one of you, because YOU deserve it. Also, some of us just need to hear it a couple more times to believe it.

How Could You Not Want to Fall in Love Again?
It's no longer waking up to cute good morning texts. It's remembering you no longer have a person to plan things you dreamed of doing with. It's going places you once visited with the "love of your life" and trying not to let the memories overwhelm you. It's taking showers in the middle of the day because you can't dare to let your family hear you sobbing anymore. It's replaying everything in your head with the hopes of finding out where you went wrong. It's becoming a prisoner to your own sadness if you don't find a new way to occupy yourself. It's knowing sooner or later, they will find someone else and that someone will not be you. It's every tear I shed, every knot I felt in my throat, and every ache in my stomach- That's what heartbreak feels like. So I ask myself, why is everyone so obsessed with the idea of being in love?

5 Strong Relationship Habits that Sometimes Appear Toxic
Relationships are a complicated creature to understand. We hear all about it from family and friends all the time: you fight, yell at each other, someone's crying and then suddenly your emotions are all over the place and you're not sure about your relationship, let alone what you're going to make for dinner. Then a few days later, you're holding hands walking down the street all over again, laughing about some stupid meme you saw the other day. Some couples can go on following this pattern for years and still maintain a strong bond throughout all the turmoil of disagreements and screaming matches, while others might be more adamant about solving all their relationship problems right away to avoid conflict may not last as long as long term as others.
