myTakes: Relationships

I want to share a story that happened to me very recently. My guy turned me down for sex because he was too tired.  I immediately assumed he didn't want me anymore, we were through, he was going to dump me, and on and...

This is something I've always wondered and it became more prominent when I heard some guys at a bar talking about this. Should women be held to higher standard than men? One of the guys (X) was telling the other guy (Y)...

Most of the time I don't care when celebrity couples break up, but when Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams called it quits I was heartbroken. How could these soul mates split up? They were clearly perfect for each other! In...

I've always been someone that values space. I don't mind spending time by myself. I actually prefer it if I'm being honest. That's not to say that I don't get lonely, because I do. But I don't mind solitude. The other day...

I am an avid TV watcher. I will watch pretty much anything (except Dr. Who ). And whenever I watch a new TV show I always find a couple to ship. ALWAYS. I mean how could you not root for Cory and Topanga since the...

Only twice in my life have I had to admit to two different girls that their boyfriend was cheating on them. One went better than the other in terms of how I came out. The first girl I had to tell was Natalie. I didn't...

First of all, let me just start by saying Guys are nice, a guy is your friend, a guy is your brother, father, husband and whatever. Guys are very simple. They can never be as complicated as girls. But the thing is, girls...

I want to see what others thought about a common situation. It's normal to feel a little possesive about your partner, especially if you're really in love. But it's inevitable that your partner will have good looking...

1. MYSTERY A guy who doesn't reveal each and every single detail of his life in one blink is mysterious. When a guy continuously talks about his own life without paying attention on our life, he kills the mystery. Ask...

The end is so close.. And yet.. I've lost the will to wait.. I feel adrift.. Cast aside.. Forgotten.. I haven't heard from you in days.. Not even a single text.. Have you changed your mind? Forgotten me? Tired of toying...

There are many obvious signs that your relationship won't last, such as non-stop fighting, abuse or cheating. Those are the big ones. But there are so many smaller signs of relationship breakdowns that psychologists and...

So ladies and gents... I know we all had that feeling where we thought our fiance or husband might want a divorce but doesn't really know if he or she can do it... So, here are 5 different signs your marriage might be...

In relationships, we hear time and time again, why it's so important to be honest with each other. I'm not talking about outright lies either, I'm talking about the honesty and integrity it takes to be who you really are...

I spend a lot of time on my phone. I charge it before I go to sleep so its right next to me when I sleep and when I go to the bathroom I take it in there to entertain myself (anyone else addicted to Trivia Crack?). But...

A good kissing scene can make or break a movie. No, I'm kidding. But a great kiss can make you remember a movie longer than you normally would have. Let's be real the only reason we re-watch The Notebook  so many times...

I was in a long-term relationship until just recently. My boyfriend and I lived in Canada (I still do) until his mom got a job with a company in America. Which is not far at all. Except she got a job in Southern...

So I got to thinking...it's always easy to want to compare your spouse to a piece of cake, a Christmas present, etc., talking about how you or your spouse don't want to be "tainted" from prior sexual activity, because...

So this is really for the girlfriends out there worrying about that ex that might still have feelings for your guy. For the girlfriend out ther worrying about your guy being colse friends with his ex There are several...

I am SO DAMN TIRED of reading the statuses of my friends who are single or have dated in the past and are like: I hate relationships because they are drama I date myself. I am single because I am strong. (The...

It's so great when in life you can find people to surround yourself with who are successful and can boost you instead of tearing you down or holding you back. It's widely known that the company that you keep affects your...
