Is Liquor Ever a Valid Excuse for Sleeping with Someone?
I slept with a guy I work with last weekend at a company party. We hadn’t even spoken much before then. It’s just many drinks were had then… you know. I’m not sure what to do when I see him next? I’m not necessarily trying to take it “somewhere” but feeling kind of awkward. What [...]

Whether you’re close to your family or not, they know you the best (or at least the longest) and their opinion is usually an important one. But would you stop seeing someone simply because [...]
Are Independent Women Destined to be Alone Like Tyrese Says?
Looks like Tyrese is causing trouble again. The singer/actor/author/Twitter-relationship-advice-giver got women of color up in arms a while back for some asinine response about why he didn’t cast any dark-skinned models in his latest video: “So I’m getting tweets… Why aren’t any “Black women” in your video…
