the other woman
Plus the birth order-romance link, suicide and marriage, and praise for missionary.
It's Friday and it's time for links. So you don't have to surf the internet yourself, here are the best the web has to offer in terms of love and relationships. I'm not a hero, I do this for love.
The gals at The Frisky have a great list of dos and, more importantly, don'ts about trying to get back with an ex. My plan is: be awesome, apologize profusely (regardless of whether you mean it) and make promises that you could never possibly keep.
With exes on the brain, Em & Lo (EmAndLo.com) field a question from a … Read More
Being easy isn't as easy as you might think.
Kate Major recently spoke with the CBS Early Show about her affair with Jon Gosselin, the real reason why she quit her job at Star magazine a few days into their affair, and the fact that the father of eight inevitably got back together with Hailey Glassman.
Clearly devastated by the situation, the second Kate insisted that she was not a dummy for getting involved with a D-lister with an estranged wife, a 22-year-old girlfriend, and a brood of children. Rather, she described herself as something of a victim.
Of course, we'd love to be able to reassure her that … Read More
Cancer-stricken Elizabeth is furious over spending her final days with "the other woman."
John Edwards is moving the mother of his love-child into his upscale, waterfront North Carolina neighborhood and will help raise their baby, says the National Enquirer in yet another exclusive report on the disgraced former Presidential candidate. Although lacking proof, sources close to other-woman Rielle Hunter say they believe Edwards is paying for her move.
Insiders close to the other camp corroborate that John is definitely behind Rielle's move: "There's absolutely no way that he didn't approve or arrange her moving closer to him—it's all part of his new … Read More

The other woman shouldn't get all the blame for cheating.
Misleading headline? Perhaps. But I've been noticing more and more cheating these days. Just in the last month alone we've had the Jon and Kate Plus 8 fiasco, the Mel Gibson baby mama drama and the hurley burly surrounding Sean Penn and that girl from Star Wars. In fact, a study came out the other day that said people in committed relationships are involved in 100% of all cheating cases; the study was sponsored by the Human Fund (wait for it).
So, because these cheaty cheatersons aren't dancing with themselves (like Billy Idol) it's really easy to … Read More
40 years later a retired church administrator comes clean about her White House romance with JFK.
If you haven't heard, Monica was not the first. A few years ago, a biography on John F. Kennedy was released that included mention of an 18-month-long affair between a White House intern, Mimi Beardsley Alford, and the president. At the time, New York's Daily News found the woman, Ms. Alford (known then as Marion Fahnestock), to be living in Manhattan and working on Fifth Avenue as a church administrator.
After Alford made a brief statement to confirm that she had in fact been engaged in a sexual relationship with Kennedy, there were no … Read More
Elizabeth Edwards talked candidly with media outlets, if they agreed to this one condition.
You've seen Elizabeth Edwards on Oprah and on the Today show talking about her new book, Resilience. She's opened up about nearly every aspect of her husband John Edwards' affair. But for her candidness, Edwards requests that the name of the other woman not be spoken. Most media outlets have agreed to this. On Larry King her request was honored again. But the Washington Post recently showed it is not so willing to take requests. Indeed, no newspaper has been as willing to make the name deletion in their reporting.
In her book, Edwards refers to … Read More

Some marginal advice on selling eggs, hot sauce in the condom and being the other woman.
You know how giving advice is really easy? But taking advice and faithfully abiding by it's hard? That's why I prefer giving it. Every few weeks I scour the online advice columns and rebut the advice they give. It's good for everyone because dissenting opinion is what makes democracy great.
One of my all-time favorite advice givers is the Seattle Post-Intelligencer's Carolyn Hax. She's way more on the Oprah side of things than the goll-dern Dr. Phil side. This time around the other woman wants to know if she should wait for dude to leave … Read More
