I Met My Husband Online — Here’s What Everyone Gets Wrong About Online Dating

My husband and I met on the popular dating app. Many people have misconceptions about online dating, from it being only for the socially inept to there being an extreme stigma around it. Despite the challenges it can present, online dating can be a really rewarding experience that can end in long-term commitment. Six months ago, I woke up hungover in a queen-sized room at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco in Salt Lake City. My eyes were swollen. My stomach felt sour. But, overall, I felt OK. I got more than eight hours of sleep, which isn't something most people can say the night before they get married. I sat on the bed watching "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" with an eye mask on, in hopes my dark circles would cease to exist. It was the Christmas card episode. Realizing it was almost n...

A&A: Everything You Wanted To Know About Sexting, But Were Afraid To Ask

Stories of teens taking and sending a naked picture of themselves with their phones have been all over the news media in recent years. The outcome? Shocking, according to reports which have suggested that humiliation and sometimes even suicide can follow. But what is the reality? Sexting is often seen as a dicey electronic version of “I’ll show you mine, you show me yours”. Many teens (and adults) engage in it. Indeed, some are suggesting that it is becoming a “normal” part of adolescent sexual development. And in general, few psychological problems (if any) are correlated with the behavior. Here’s the bottom line: research suggests that most photos don’t end up in disasters, either socially (being passed around, teased, bullied) or criminally (being prosecuted). Such outcomes are possible...

According To A Couples Therapist, Talking About These 3 Things First Can Smooth The Way, Before Moving In With Your Partner

Moving in with your partner? Talking about these 3 things first can smooth the way, according to a couples therapist. Partners who live together typically come to this significant place in their relationship in one of two ways – what some clinicians call “sliding versus deciding.” Moving in together can just kind of happen without too much thought, or it can be carefully considered and planned. Some couples may see living together as a test for future marriage. For others, marriage is not a goal, so living together may be the ultimate statement of their commitment. I have been a relationship therapist and researcher for over 25 years, specializing in intimate relationships. Based on my research and clinical experience, I recommend that couples discuss the significance of sharing a home bef...

What Is The Truth About St. Patrick’s Day

In 1997, my students and I traveled to Croagh Patrick, a mountain in County Mayo, as part of a study abroad program course on Irish literature I was teaching for the University of Dayton. I wanted my students to visit the place where, each July, thousands of pilgrims pay homage to St. Patrick, who, according to lore, fasted and prayed on the summit for 40 days. While there, our tour guide relayed the story of how St. Patrick, as he lay on his death bed on March 17 in A.D. 461, supposedly asked those gathered around him to toast his heavenly journey with a “wee drop of whiskey” to ease their pain. The mention of whiskey left me wondering if St. Patrick may have unintentionally influenced the way most of the world celebrates the holiday today: by drinking. It wasn’t always this way. The F...

All About Beauty

Beauty is not skin deep. It's attitude that separates the beauty from the crowd. "Looking at beauty in the world, is the first step of purifying the mind." The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. A woman whose smile is open and whose expression is glad has a kind of beauty no matter what she wears. All women are beautiful, regardless of their looks. You just need to touch their soul with respect and appreciation for their inner beauty and you will be rewarded with joy. The heart is way more important than the package. I love natural beauty, and I think i...

Ethical non-monogamy: what to know about these often misunderstood relationships. Imagine Sarah and John have been in a monogamous relationship for five years. Although they love each other, Sarah, who is bisexual, has recently started feeling an attraction to her coworker, Andrea. This has led to several sexual encounters, leaving Sarah feeling guilty.

Some couples may even want sexual encounters with other people. It can be difficult to navigate these feelings, especially when they conflict with the commitment and promises made in the relationship. While the sex between Sarah and Andrea was cons...
