Getting over a situationship can be brutal… and the pain is often worse than the pain following a long-term relationship. But why? Why does it so hard to let go of something you never truly had?

Let’s talk about some habits and mindsets that are sabotaging you from getting the love you want. The path to finding love is filled with misconceptions thanks to movies and mainstream media.

In this day and age where “ghosting” has become an acceptable form of breaking up (maybe not acceptable, let’s go with widely practiced instead), with endless dating apps where a guy can find someone shiny and new with a few…

Lack of self-love is probably the biggest hindrance to finding and having romantic love. When you don’t love yourself, how will you ever trust that anyone could actually love you?

Let’s talk about why men pull away and then come back. It could be a guy you’re casually seeing, or maybe it’s your long-term partner.

A breakup is quite possibly the most gutting, painful, agonizing experience one can go through.

Few things can send waves of panic coursing through a woman’s body quite like a man suddenly pulling away. Things started out so great.

Being on every dating app and cramming your schedule with dates for every night of the week isn’t always the most effective strategy when it comes to finding love … in fact, sometimes taking yourself out of the game and…

Almost every woman has experienced the panic and uncertainty that occur when her man starts pulling away or withdrawing.

Do you find that you are mostly (or only!) drawn to emotionally unavailable men who can’t give you the commitment you want?

My friend Ashley came to me in a tizzy one day. She was dating a very confusing man and needed help making sense of it all.

So you were dating a guy… or maybe still in the “talking phase” and he seemed super into you. And you like him too which makes it even better!

Breakups are hard enough, but when your ex keeps coming back but doesn’t seem to want you back it can be crushing. It could be an ex-boyfriend or an ex-situation-whatever, either way it hurts and it messes with your mind.

I have been writing about relationships and giving relationship advice for over a decade now, which is kind of surreal and makes me feel very old.

If you’ve been dumped, it’s natural to want to make him regret his decision. I’m assuming you want to make him regret leaving you because you want him back.

Ever notice that the guys you really want don’t seem to want you at the same level… and yet you easily and effortlessly attract the guys you don’t really want? It’s confusing and frustrating.

Relationships fall apart all the time for various reasons — cheating, jealousy, distance, or sometimes it just isn’t a match. Sometimes, things are beyond our control.
