Detoxing From The Toxic
When they talk about postpartum depression, they talk solely about it being as a result of new motherhood, or the overwhelming emotions and stresses caused thereby. They don't stop and ask, "What kind of support network do you have? How do your parents treat you? How do your friends respond when you need help, or ask for advice? What do you think about leaving baby with someone else? What do you think about YOU? Are you still able to make time for yourself and the things you want? Aside from being a mother, and all the other things you already were?"

Are You Compatible with your Partner?
One of the most important things to consider when selecting a partner is compatibility. The definition of compatibility is “capable of existing together in harmony”. Well duh. That sounds like a no brainer. Of course you would want to exist in harmony with your partner. Otherwise, what's the point???

Dating Rut? From Single to The Partner of Your Dreams
The moment you wake up, tossing about, flipping your pillow over so many times, you reach out and all of a sudden there is nothing but a cold pillow on the other side of your bed waiting to greet you! Other than the 3 seconds of pure pleasure from feeling that cold pillow touch your rosy cheeks, fades just as easily back to the disdain you're feeling for the reality that you are, indeed, single!! Say it again, and again, louder for those in the back... I am SINGLEEEE... and I hate it, but I don't know how to get out of it!

First Date Red Flags
If you've never been in a relationship before with a gaslighter, consider yourself lucky. What is a gaslighter? The term comes from a 1938 stage play about a man who psychologically manipulates his wife's perception by playing tricks on her to convince her that she is insane. For example, dimming the gas lights in their home and pretending that nothing has changed, or convince her that she is misremembering events and conversations that did in fact take place.

Happy Wife Happy Life
My father always advised that living with a woman is not always going to be the easiest thing to do in life, however, if I ever wanted to be happy and achieve true equilibrium within my marriage and within my home, then I would first have to master the art of doing the things that make my wife happy and focus on creating a happy environment for her. My father always said: "If Mamma's happy, everybody's happy. If Mamma's not happy, ain't nobody happy." One of Dad’s goals was to create a great environment for Mum and doing so meant that happiness filtered down to the rest of the house. He based a lot of his relationship advice to me on this saying. Where did he get this from...? His father maybe? Nope... a fridge magnet.
