ex
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
Dean McDermott divorced Mary Jo Eustace for Tori Spelling, so she wrote a book about it.
Mary Jo Eustace isn't a Hollywood wife. But her ex is married to one. And Eustace can tell you all about the trouble a Hollywood wife can bring to a marriage—especially when she steals your husband.
Eustace is the ex-wife of Dean McDermott, of Tori and Dean fame. While Tori and Dean made nice in the Hollywood Hills, what most people don't know is that Dean abruptly ended his 13-year marriage to Eustace in order to start anew with Tori Spelling. Dean left behind a young son and a newly adopted seven-week-old daughter. (That doesn't really come up in … Read More

It's one of the most perplexing questions of modern wedding etiquette. Can you or should you invite your ex to your wedding? Look, there are all sorts of brides and grooms, and all sorts of relationships, so there's no one answer here. To decide for yourself, ask yourself these questions:
1. Is he an ex, a friend you used to date, or a friend you used to bang?
How do you talk about this person? Is it as a good friend, or as an ex? Do most of your other friends even know that the two of you once dated? If you … Read More
Thirteen reasons you should ditch your "never take an ex back" policy.
John Mayer has been trying to make Jennifer Aniston his girlfriend again. They always come back, don't they ladies? First he dumped her via text message last August (ouch!) and then, after a brief reunion, broke up with her again in March. Apparently, now John has been begging her for another chance. The balladeer has gone boo-hoo for his Hollywood honey. The Frisky: The 10 Lies Men And Women Tell Most Often
Sure, our own Erin and conventional wisdom say that in life you only get one chance. But in love, there are no rules. However, there is … Read More
How to deal with an attachment to your ex, even after the love is gone.
Sometimes people move away from a marriage as they become involved in a new relationship. Often the new relationship is an affirmation during a vulnerable time that you are lovable, fun and sexy—contrary to how your spouse is treating you. It can be a chance to act on fantasies that were irresistible to think about. After several months of an affair or an open relationship within a separation, the new relationship may begin to deteriorate. It was a bridge through a transition, but not a good choice for a long term commitment. Read: How … Read More

I finally had one of those moments when you discover an ex has gotten married and your world momentarily collapses. Facebook was innocently trolling my email address book looking for new users who could become my friends. Martin popped up and when I clicked on his profile picture, I saw him looking mighty fine in a grey tux smooching some babe in a wedding dress. Facebook Decides To Control Your Love Life
Ouch. Yuck. Puke.
Many of my exes have gotten married and the news hasn't ruffled my feathers. Even my ex-husband has a new wife and I feel … Read More
Jennifer Aniston is a pretty cool ex, in my book.
I'm not sure if you saw the recent news that Jennifer Aniston is still talking about her marriage to William Bradley "Brad" Pitt. The tune has mellowed for the most part, she says, "In contrast to what people say, Brad and I have a very cordial relationship. I admire him a lot for what he is doing to help other people and I think he is an extraordinary actor."
While I think she meant "really good actor," I think the rest is just outstanding. Sure, she seems particularly loquacious about the Pitt-Jolie's when she has a project that needs pimping … Read More
Sites like DearOldLove.com reveal how the Internet can help you cope with a breakup.
Web 2.0 may be the most cathartic thing to happen to breakups since a pimply middle schooler invented slam books.
Recently, we happened upon a charming little website called DearOldLove.com. The concept is very simple: Much in the way that PostSecret.com publishes postcards with people's deepest secrets written on them, DearOldLove posts small, poignant notes from people who have one last thing to say to that one old love. Under the guise of anonymity, it's surprising how much that is left unsaid between ex-lovers can find itself out in the open for all to read. Read: … Read More
The Liskula Cohen case could change the way the laws of internet (and ex) defamation work.
There may be a new sheriff coming to the wild, wild web. You probably don't know about the curious case of Liskula Cohen, but you soon may.
Liskula Cohen is a model (you have seen her all up in Vogue, son). Photographs of Liskula Cohen appeared on a Google-housed blog entitled "Skanks in NYC." (There was once a video of Facebook etiquette rules insisting that you don't start hate groups, which someone obviously didn't think applied to her specific situation.) Captions of the photographs were less than flattering and used words like "whore," "psychotic," "lying," and "prestidigitator*." The five … Read More
Don't think all those tagged photos, flirty wall posts and ominous status updates go unnoticed.
We were just thinking the other day how relieved we are that Facebook was just a twinkle in Mark Zuckerberg's eye when we were in high school. Read: Facebook Group: I Need Sex
We aren't entirely sure our fragile, angsty hearts could've handled the rush of photos, wall posts and status updates advertising the whereabouts and canoodlings of our various crushes. The gossipy hallways and yearbook inscriptions were about all we could take. Thanks.
So it came as no surprise when we read that a study of 300 college students revealed that Facebook incites a significant amount … Read More
