From entertainment to advertising, we live in a culture where sex infiltrates many aspects of our lives. Although many of us might feel comfortable discussing the details of our sex lives over a few drinks with friends, sometimes it can be harder to talk about what we want in the bedroom with the person who […] More
Four years ago, I came to a small town in southern Italy to start a small cooking business and look for a house to buy for myself. I never came looking for my “prince charming.” Of course, my mother saw it differently. She had also planned to get a house, but for herself and my […] More
Losing the “spark” in a long-term relationship is inevitable, just like realizing you have a crush on JJ from Outer Banks (forget John B, am I right ladies? #teamJJ). We’re conditioned to desire the act of falling in love, not the act of keeping love. How many rom-coms do you know start after the wedding and go […] More
We get a lot of our knowledge about love and relationships from pop culture, right? But no rom-com takes place in a global pandemic with stay-at-home orders in place (that I know of.

However, date nights should still […] More
One of the perks of all this staying-at-home business is that some celebrity relationship drama is coming to light (I’m still not over Hannah B and Tyler’s TikTok). However, one of the downfalls is the toll it could take on your own relationship. Remove exciting date nights out, and add in 24/7 togetherness and lack […] More
