marriage

Marriage is not so much a word as it is a sentence–a life sentence.

Wait For The Guy Who Does This
Butterflies: Check. Mutual attraction: Check. It's easy to fall for him when you first discover the spark between the two of you, but before you get in over your head, ask yourself if he does these things.

Matrimonial Machinations
Matrimonial Machinations "If you had listened to me, we would have been here on time!" Lena snapped as she struggled to adjust the sash on her coral sundress. Edward freely exercised his right to remain silent. Thirteen years of marriage had produced four wonderful children, along with enough arguments to last a lifetime. He knew that they had a snowball's chance in hell of winning $200,000 on the latest reality show, Love and Marriage, but it was worth a shot. Edward could only hope that the other couples would make them look like the Ozzie and Harriet viewers were looking for.

Protecting Our Men
There are several things we should do for our men. We should love, encourage, and be supportive of our men. It doesn’t matter the nationality. All men need their women to love them unconditionally.

Abhorrence and Affection
Bethany Benedicts: smart, beautiful, and terribly single... But she won't let that little bump in the road get her down. She has plans, you see, to be married by the end of the year to a rich, handsome gentleman. However, those plans are quickly ruined when her father informs her she must marry her childhood rival, Mr. Nicholas Oakley, to help her family out of their unfortunate debt. Though Mr. Oakley is certainly rich enough, Beth simply cannot bring herself to like him, let alone love him, as a proper wife should.

The Greatest Love I've Ever Known
So what with all the drama circulating the 'Net these days about "this person is a cheater and a liar" and "that person has six kids with ten different people", it's nice to be able to tell a story that basically encompasses your general American family dream: a loving stable marriage or relationship and 2.3 kids (in my case, three.) So today, I'd like to share with you my relationship and how everything came to be.

The Slut Phase
The time between “uhhhh why is there hair here?” and “why does my back hurt, I’ve literally done nothing all day?” should be an era of exploration and pettiness.

Mi Casa, Su Garden Shed
In some circles, a man’s home is his garden shed. Not only does his garden shed provide a secure, weatherproof place to keep his man-toys, but for many blokes, it’s a hallowed place of sanctuary and solitude, where he can reconnect with his chi, and top up his life-force energy. (Not to mention, disconnect from bad karma and hide from chores like washing up and garbage duty).

Dear Mother
8/14/16 Dear Mother, I know we haven’t spoken in a while and I know that I’ve treated you very badly, but I feel that you should understand why. You should also know that this is the only autobiography I’ll ever write and that you’ll ever read.

You're Only Fooling Yourself
Someone once said that everybody lies. Maybe that’s true. But I’m a crappy liar. I mean, I’ve lied in the past, but in a torture situation, I’d be the first to take some cyanide, because there would be no point in someone trying to interrogate me. I find it ridiculously difficult to do.
