Friends with Benefits have become the new-age relationships that people don’t seem to want to admit that they have.  Many of these relationships actually started at the time of their breakup, and with at least one selfish...

There is not a day that I don't think about you in someway, shape or form. There are so many things everyday that remind me of you, us and all the moments that we shared together. Every day I had to force myself to forget...

As many of us are already aware, divorce really isn't anything new or groundbreaking. Many people say children are often the victims of the conflicts that arise when their parents get divorced. So, I want to take a stand...
