How to know that you have recovered from a painful breakup.
Last week I started a discussion about how long it takes to get over an ex. Answers varied, of course, depending on lots of different factors, and some people even admitted they weren't sure whether they'd ever get over an ex. While we may not be there now, most of us can remember a time when we wondered the very same thing. Fortunately, time really does heal most wounds and eventually the fog lifts and the day comes when you realize, suddenly, you're gloriously, blessedly, wonderfully, finally over him! That day doesn't come without warning, of course. There are always … Read More
A new study reveals why men with ill spouses are six times more likely to head for the door.
This Love Buzzer has a friend. One year and one day into her marriage, her husband went into the hospital for what was described as a standard procedure. He didn't leave his hospital bed for three months. In fact, he almost died.
Every day of those three months, this woman took the subway back and forth. She stopped in on her way to work; she went home from work, fed the dogs, then went back to the hospital. All while, he was sometimes in a medically induced coma, oftentimes uncommunicative, and rarely lucid. It was a very difficult 92 days. And … Read More
How to convince your ex that the relationship deserves another chance.
Earlier this week, we asked you: "What Would Get You To Take Your Ex Back?" From a look at the results of the poll, not much. Forty-three percent of you said that there’s nothing he could do to get you to change your mind, and that getting involved again would mean “giving up when I just need to move on.” The unfortunate truth is that you can’t make someone love you. The Frisky: Why Is He So Hot And Cold With Me?
But! There is a but ... what if you still both love each other (either consciously … Read More
Ooh. Sucks to get fired and break up in the same week.
Lindsay Price, whom you may recognize from Lipstick Jungle, this season's Eastwick, or the short-lived NBC remake of Coupling, lost both her boyfriend, How I Met Your Mother's Josh Radnor, and her job this week when ABC execs announced they were shutting down Eastwick. The Wednesday-night show, based on the John Updike novel The Witches of Eastwick and the 1987 film starring Jack Nicholson, had been struggling to attract an audience.
Lindsay is fast turning into the 2000s version of famous showkillers Paula Marshall or Ted McGinley. The poor girl just can't seem … Read More
What does "getting over it" actually mean, and when does it happen?
A new study says it takes the typical person 17 months and 26 days to feel ready to move on after a divorce, which got me thinking: How long does it take to get over a regular ol' breakup (you know, one that doesn't require lawyers)? The answer, of course, is that there isn't one right answer. It took years for me to get over my first love, someone I was with only about ten months. On the other hand, it took about six weeks before I was ready to move on after I ended a four-year, live-in relationship … Read More
Ex-boyfriend says Khloe fabricated their relationship for TV.
Khloe Kardashian's marriage to Lamar Odom is now in its third (calendar) month, which means it's lasted longer than we predicted. But now we're suspecting the romance of Khlodom might not be all they've promised us, as Khloe's ex-boyfriend steps forward to reveal that she and sister Kourtney fabricated a relationship for their E! show, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami. What?! Not everything on TV is real?! We are scandalized!
Khloe's ex, Timberwolves guard Rashad McCants, says that a scene on K&K in which the sisters hacked into his voice mail and listened to dirty messages left by a … Read More
I've always told her everything, but now I feel too guilty to lift the phone for a chat.
Perhaps the better question isn't whether you would tell your BFF that you slept with her ex, but whether you'd sleep with her ex in the first place. And maybe a more interesting question is: how would you react if your best friend confessed she slept with your ex? A woman writing to the Daily Mail's advice columnist, Rowan Pelling, may find out the answer to that very question. In her letter to Pelling, she writes: The Frisky: 5 Friends You Don't Need
Six months ago, my best friend split up with her boyfriend of five years. She was desperately in … Read More
RPattz's romance is over, and we're all crying sparkly tears.
The fairy-tale romance of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson is over before it had a chance to produce a master race of sparkly, dead-eyed Chuck Taylor–wearing babies, OK! is reporting. It seems now that filming on Eclipse has ended, Rob and Kristen are going their separate ways, and Wobby-Wob is left broken-hearted.
Rob made only a brief appearance at the wrap party for the film, which Kristen skipped altogether, and sources tell the fanciful magazine that he's totally jealous of her scenes with hulked-out Taylor Lautner. "She couldn't stop noticing his bod," the source, reporting directly … Read More
