What Do We Do Now
I have come to notice that most relationships go through a phase in which the two participants become distant, loveless, sometimes angry, sexless, etc. I have especially seen this in couples that have produced children, a loved family member passes away, basically just big changes that are hard for the human mind to process.

Things You Should Do to Help People Who Have Lost Loved Ones Recently
When you lose someone, it takes a little piece of you that you can never get back. I recently lost my aunt that I was very close to in September of this year. I still am having really rough days and times, especially with the holidays, and with people who just don't get it, understand, or don't worry about you when they should be. The list goes on and on, but I'll share a couple tips for helping that person.

6 Ways to Know You're About to be Ghosted
The vanishing act that is known as ghosting is one of the downfalls of modern dating. What is ghosting? Ghosting is when you suddenly don't want to date the person that you are dating anymore and simply end all communications with them rather than have to break up with them or talk to them. Some ghosters say that they ghost their dates to spare their feelings of the break up but really, in the end, it causes more heartbreak and confusion from not having a reason of why the relationship has ended. Basically, it's the cowards way out of the relationship. Ghosting can be emotionally exhausting for the person that is being ghosted. This is becoming a more and more common occurrence as a way to end a relationship. Below is a list of signs to look for when you're about to be ghosted.

What Men Hate About Relationships
What do men hate most when they are in a relationship with someone? It pretty much depends on who the man is with. If the women is self-sufficient and confident in everything she does, than the man is pretty darn happy with who he is with. On the other hand, if he is in a relationship with someone who is always checking in with him to see what he is up to and nags at him constantly about everything, chances are he's miserable in that relationship.

Letting Go
Sometimes the hardest thing one must do is let go. Whether it is a relationship, friendship, or even a family member. I can admit that it’s easier said than done. Sometimes we love people who are just toxic to us, and no matter what we do, we cannot change their ways. I’m not saying to change them into someone else. What I mean is that the people that are toxic are the ones that use poisons to escape reality, such as pills, alcohol, coke, heroin, etc. They must be the ones that want to change. I learned this the hard way. I thought that I could show the people I love that they are so much more, but I felt like failed because they don’t want to change. They like the poisons they consume, and because of this I had to do what is best for me. For once in my life, I was able to say no and to say goodbye even though it was hard for me to do so.

Some People Are Better Left in the Past
Pain will leave you, when you let go. - Jeremy Aldana Many people give too much importance to holding onto what is important to you and although that is true, I want to focus on the fact that sometimes it is okay to LET GO. A lot of the time the hardest thing to do is to walk away from a situation that doesn't serve you anymore. We get too comfortable with the routine of life.

Trust
Trust. Something that is often given blindly and received carelessly. Trust is something that is formed in every relationship since birth. Parent to child, sibling to sibling, lover to lover, owner to pet, teacher to student. It’s a factor that plays a part of letting others see your true form; your vulnerabilities, insecurities, and fears.

7 Dating Do's & Don’ts You Need to Know
Dating in my thirties has definitely been a memorable experience, one which I would sometimes prefer to forget. If I ever felt like the Christopher Columbus of the dating world, those days were long gone... I've charted more territory than I care to admit, and still I haven't found what I'm looking for. The great Rumi once said, “What you seek is seeking you.” Not since social media became a thing. Clearly he got so caught up in his Instagram feed that he forgot all about seeking anything and I’m out here slaving away serial dating for 2 cause he can’t even carry his own weight. As soon as I find him we’re gonna have to have a little chat about that. In the meantime, please allow me to share the dating Do’s and Don’ts I learned whilst serial dating sweat-shop style.

I Thought You Were Different
Manipulating. How manipulating you are. You pull on every side of me and show me that I am not worth the time of anyone, but feed me words to make me feel whole for a second. I feed off of every ounce of you, every "I love you" that falls off your lips. I have never felt a more empty feeling than I do with you. You make me feel bad for breathing wrong, for breathing in a direction that isn’t yours. You make me feel bad for my anxiety, like I am somebody who is so mentally sick that I need medicine to "fix me." You laugh at me for my anxiety, you laugh at me when I get upset, like my feelings don’t even matter right? You say to me, "You only see your side," but how? How do I only see my side when yours is the only one you will allow me to see? You tell me you won’t say, "I love you," because I didn’t say it when you yelled it to me in the middle of my sentence.
