The Deep Heartbreak That Led Me To My Soul Mate. Top Story - October 2021.
There is a moment in every person’s life when they are faced with a situation they hoped would never happen. The hardest thing I have ever dealt with (romantically) was from a boy I met in college. The two of us were pretty similar, yet very different; I liked that mixture.

Would You Marry a Broke Man?
The pressure to get married for women approaching 40 especially can sometimes be downright unbearable and uncalled for. Some women settle for the wrong men because of the need to fit in with societal “norms” and some women just point-blank refuse to fold and just live life according to their own terms.

Fading hearts
I fell in love with you when we were 16. Even before I get to tell you about how I feel, you found yourself a girlfriend. She loved you a lot, and so did you. Tried my best to move on in secret, but after weeks, I decided to tell you. You said, "I was in love with you too. But I moved on." And my heart shattered. It was hard to forget about you because you sit right behind me in class. We would always laugh at the awkwardness in the air. It was uncomfortable, but we both knew it felt right.

If I go Dutch on the Bills with My Lady, Will She go Dutch in our Relationship?
Dear Lex, Recently I came across an IG post that said if you split the bills with your girl she will only give you so much in the relationship. Ever since I saw that, I had been thinking that she culd be talkin to someone else or planning to leave me behind my back or just that she will never give me 100% if I don't take care of everything. I don't feel like I should have to pay for everything because she lives here too. She eats too. She not cheap. Going dutch on the bills is because if I weren't here, wouldnt she be paying them alone anyway? idk if I were married, that be different

Blancmange
These fractures carry me or maybe I carry them but nevertheless they still reside in my head as I sip on the very drink that became the befouling Picasso on our loungeroom wall; the very drink that heralded the one sided attraction and inevitably, my spiral into a type of cloistered oblivion.

The Benefits of Disagreements in Relationships
Many couples have an unrealistic expectation that in order to be “soulmates” they must interpret situations in the same ways. The reality is that you are two completely different people with differing takes on the world that may sometimes see situations in a similar way.

Living and loving with insecure attachment styles
I am not very often alone at home, and when I am, I enjoy it. Last Sunday, I had the flat for myself, since my boyfriend had gone out, and I decided to just sit back and relax: I'd read a book and listen to some background music. I chose a playlist without paying too much attention to what songs were on it.

6 Signs You’ve Found a Healthy and Secure Partner
I’ve had my fair share of unsuccessful relationships. Sometimes I was the one to blame. Sometimes they were. More often than not, it was a mixture of both — our unhealthy behaviour merged into one big disaster of miscommunication and feelings of resentment.
