How To Not Bury Your Boyfriend Over the Holidays. Top Story - December 2017.
Leaving your boyfriend's side for the holidays can feel like a sadistic remake of Christopher Nolan's movie, The Prestige. One moment, he's by your side constantly. He's the first person you call when you're losing your mind over an exam, the one you can rely on for a good popcorn fight or a star-watching adventure. He makes you laugh the most, and he knows all of your roommate drama, your pet-peeves, and your cheesy moves. He's your best friend.

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.

How to Keep Your Long Distance Relationship Alive
Long Distance Relationships are the hardest type of relationship to be in. They're the hardest to keep alive, too. But, they're the most rewarding, in my opinion. Long Distance Relationships depend on the unbreakable trust and strong communication of both people. Sometimes, there are moments in your LDR that'll seem so dull... and stagnant (as a girl who has been in ten different LD relationships, these moments are imminent!). During this time, you might lose faith in your love, or your lover's love. Worry no more! Here are some tips to keep your relationship alive!

Signs The Guy You’re Talking To Is A F*ckboy
He doesn’t let you touch his phone – red flag. His phone is always facing down – red flag. If says, “come over, let's watch Netflix” – red flag. If he texts you anytime after 10 PM – red flag. If he ghosts on you mid conversation and picks up hours later where the conversation ended without an explanation – red flag. He goes for sex right away – red flag. I’m so sorry, ladies, but it’s not what you think it is with this guy. And I know it hurts because you want to believe all the sweet nothings he tells you, but take it from someone who has chosen all the wrong fish in the sea. What I’m about to tell you are the ultimate signs of a f*ckboy.

Best Dating Books for Guys
Dating, for a guy, is a pretty lonely ordeal. Most men don't really talk about relationships the way women do. Nor do they often have the support that women do, either. So, it's not surprising that a lot of men end up getting lonely and unable to find quality advice.

The Story of Us: Falling in Love with My Best Friend
Five years ago, way back in grade nine when I was still trying to find my place in a new school full of new transitions, I met my best friend. For the purpose of this story I'll call her Payton. Payton was in my gym class on my team for softball and, being my usual introverted self, I was standing by myself in line not talking to anyone. That is, until I turned around and noticed the anti-possession charm from the TV show Supernatural drawn on the arm of the girl standing behind me. In a moment of pure instinct I turned to her, pointing at the doodle, and tried to ask her if that was, in fact, the anti possession charm from the hit TV series. Of course once I got the first few words out of my mouth my brain caught up with my actions and I stood there, sputtering and pointing for a solid two minutes (thorougly making things awkward) before I finally managed to spit the name out. The look of relief that crossed her sun-kissed freckled face was almost as amazing as the blindingly beautiful smile that made her whole face light up. And from that moment I knew I was hooked. She laughed and told me she was so nervous as I sputtered on that I would accuse her of devil worship (a reality that was all too common in our small town) but then when I finally found the words she was so thankful that I was in fact just filling my free time watching gorgeous boys on Netflix.

Seriously, finding your other half is a big deal, a wonderful event, and there is no reason why you two shouldn't be happy and thrive together.
