Who We End Up Loving, (And Why Dating Sites Are BS).

It’s Monday evening, and the TV is on while I putter around doing miscellaneous things. Admittedly I like having the background sound on more than I appreciate what’s showing. But, as I sat down for a minute, by luck (not), a dating site commercial came on. Slick, beautiful faces fill the TV screen happily chirping …

Red Flags, Toxic Relationships, And Self-Care

Healthy relationships don’t come with handbooks, and there are no courses or tests to make sure that everyone is fit.
