When their marriage plans hit the skids, one couple saved the date and had a party.
Here's to hoping this isn't a new type of breakup.
From NYTimes.com comes a story about a couple who were engaged to be married but ultimately decided against it. The hitch is that they still own two abodes together—an apartment in NYC and a lake house in the country—which means navigating who pays what on their two mortgages and divvying up weekends at their once-cozy vacation home.
Now, we realize times are tough during the recession, but if we had to cohabit with our ex, well, let's just say only one of us would come of it … Read More

One writer shares her experience.
I am in L.A. on a press trip, courtesy of Pure Romance, the largest in-home party company that offers relationship enhancement products.
A group of editors, TV people, and local women descended upon a giant villa at the Sunset Marquis last night, and even though I hardly knew anyone, it wasn’t awkward at all. I grew up in a house where we never ever ever ever ever talked about this stuff (still don’t), but honestly, I heard about everything imaginable last night, and I didn’t even blush! It was fun.
Our consultant, Lauren, was really cute. She’s the founder’s daughter. She … Read More
Chris Brown watches from the sidelines as ex his takes center stage.
Chris Brown better watch his back or he might get fouled by a very tall and very protective point guard.

Last Thursday, friends, advisors and staff of YourTango gathered to celebrate the site's continuing growth and thriving community—and break some of those pesky New Year's resolutions.
Here are some highlights from the party, which included plenty of drinks, sweets and Cheez Whiz (which, evidently, did not follow grunge out of style in the '90s):
- Giancarlo (ie JG or Juan Carlo), of Office Dating Rules video fame, "went long" on the Absolut Pear, his largess helping to increase our inventory.
- The look on many a newbie's face when they take their first sip of the YourTango signature drink (ie … Read More
