Ideally, couples should be each other’s biggest cheerleaders. They should see each other as an extension of themselves, so if one person wins, the other wins. I remember watching a house tour video of Adrienne Bailon – now Houghton. In the video, she got to her husband’s Grammy Awards collection and called herself a Grammy … Read more
I can imagine how devastating it must be to hear that your wife no longer finds you attractive. I imagine it is almost as grievous as hearing your wife no longer loves you. For some people, it may mean the same thing, in fact. I say “almost” because I believe love is more a decision … Read more
He’s a good man, so why should any woman want to leave him? It doesn’t make any sense that a woman would want to leave a good man, because, I mean, what more could she want? Well, the thing is that life is not black and white; there are many shades of grey as well. … Read more

But when I walked in, a lady was saying, “People should just learn to keep quiet instead of creating unnecessary issues in their marriage because they want … Read more
Are you married? No? Yes? Aspiring to get married? When you think about your marriage, how do you see it? A long life of beautiful pleasantness? Or a brief moment of fleeting pleasure? I really doubt people think of their marriage in the latter. A more significant percentage of people getting married usually do so … Read more
I like how people who lack understanding come to posts like this to say absurd things like, “You don’t need to do anything extra to keep your man. Any man who will stay will do so without you doing anything.” I find it absurd because men are expected to do extra to keep their marriage … Read more
This is a money blog, and we can’t help but discuss the red flags you should watch out for when it comes to finances in your relationship.
