11 BRUTAL Truths Relationship Experts WISH We Could Write About

Writing articles about relationships and divorce is one of my absolute favorite things in the world. 

One aspect that makes it so special is getting to know the brilliant, sometimes hysterical, minds of other authors and editors. It's a great big blogosphere out there, but not really all that big.

At least a few times a week, one of us will get stuck and ask a few trusted comrades in arms for help — especially when it comes to creating compelling titles that will catch the eye of you, our reader, without wandering into the dreaded realm known as the dreary swamps of the click-bait.

As we play the brainstorm game, the titles start out super serious, then inevitably devolve, quite often taking a turn towards the intellectual level of middle school slumber party chatter. 

While you don't need to know all of the super gory details, I thought I would share with you 11 titles that will never see their way to becoming an actual headline, but would sure as heck make my day if they did:
