Am I Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places?
It is sad how many men and women complain about the difficulties they have enjoying a successful dating life. Both sexes must learn how to open up and talk to each other without initial harsh judgment or sabotage due to their own subconscious insecurities.

Things that Do Change After Marriage (and Don't)
When people get married, they are absolutely terrified to see how things could change. Men worried that the women married to them will become someone they don't recognize. Women worry that the men they're walking down the aisle with will end up bailing on them once kids happen.

The "Opposite" Sex?
As I sit at my desk, sipping on a soy chai tea latte and preparing to write, I find myself thinking about all the people who believe the term feminism should be replaced with a word that's less divisive. Frankly, whichever word we use to define the belief that women should not be oppressed is going to be fraught with negative connotations, put there by people seeking to undermine the movement's progress and by "feminists" who misrepresent the point of the movement by saying crazy things like "all sex is rape." Which led me to thinking about another term I do believe should be removed from our vernacular: The Opposite Sex. We should replace it with “The Other Sex.” The former denotes a warring situation; we oppose each other. The latter denotes an egalitarian relation; it says we are peers, not foes.

Hot Tea
To my husband: The hot tea is sitting on my nightstand. It always tastes better when you make it. You know just how I like it: Yorkshire tea, milk, and two Splendas. There is something very comforting in that fact. That you always know what I need before I need it. How you can see the signs and you do everything in your power to help.

The 'Living Together at Separate Addresses, Sharing the Toothbrush' Shuffle
Love has turned me into a “shopping-bag." But I'm not the only one. I've learned that many of the innocent-looking tote bags I see sprouting squash racquets and office files are likely to contain a toothbrush and change of clothes as well. I'm not talking about the post-adolescent version of a "slumber party" in which single people routinely prepare for a date or a night on the town by carrying camouflaged shaving kits or contraceptive gadgetry–"just in case." I'm talking about a pattern of living in which love and "liberation" conspire to make extracurricular commuting a daily routine.
