Jon Gosselin is a busy (lady's) man. He's got a firey ex, Kate; a 22-year-old girlfriend, Hailey; and the opportunity to get with Octomom, aka Nadya Suleman.

Guess there's only so much Gosselin to go around, because Jon's not interested in getting to know Nadya anytime soon. Earlier this week, Octomom expressed interest in Gosselin, expressing surprise/delight over the news of his impending divorce, exclaiming, "He's hot!" Jon Gosselin And Octomom: The Next "It" Couple?

Gosselin apparantly heard about Suleman's interest, but as OMG! reports, he replied. "No way!" and added that he plans to focus on … Read More

In 2003, after nearly 14 years of marriage, Julie Metz learned that her husband Henry had been cheating on her with multiple women. Shattering to any wife, news of his infidelity hit Metz particularly hard—Henry had passed away six months prior. The revelation of his rampant adultery—including a three-year affair with a close family friend—dealt Metz a second, equally wounding blow. In her memoir, Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal, Metz recounts the aftermath of this revelation and chronicles her path to self-renewal and rediscovery of both love and trust.

Along the way, she confronts her husband's Read More

Kate Hudson and Alex Rodriguez have been dating since May, but they're still in the honeymoon phase, according to In Touch. Alex is spoiling Kate with rides on his private plane, and lavishing attention on her five-year-old son, Ryder, taking the kid on a tour of the new Yankee Stadium and buying him a tyke-sized motorbike.

"Kate's never had a guy spend so much money on her so soon," a friend of hers tells In Touch. "She's very impressed with Alex's generosity. But she also thinks he is a very nice guy. She is really falling for … Read More

I waited five months before introducing my boyfriend, Andy, to my 3-year-old son. All the books and advice givers, including my therapist, suggested we meet at a public place; I chose the Children's Museum of Manhattan and invited my mother to come along as a buffer.

Up to that point, Andy and had I spent every weekend exploring each other's bodies and temperaments, talking endlessly into the night as you do when you're first dating. Conversations never seemed to falter; our want for each other was constant. After a difficult divorce, the attention made me feel alive … Read More

For months I watched women swoon over The Bachelor, Jason Mesnick, a divorced single father, and I just couldn’t understand why. The whole thing was cute, sure, but didn’t these ladies get that people with kids have different priorities than those of us who have yet to procreate? As a single twentysomething, I am the center of my world, and I like it that way. While I certainly want kids, I don’t want them right now. And I’ve always imagined that when the time comes, my partner and I will experience all of the firsts of parenthood … Read More

For all of its ridiculous moments*, last night's episode of The Bachelor made us realize one thing: the single parent experience is growing increasingly mainstream. Jason, the bachelor and single dad in question, has 10 remaining women on the show; two of them are single mothers, and all of them are crazy for his divorced self.

The latest US census showed single parent homes have held steady at around 9 percent of all households for the past fifteen years. Meanwhile, the increase in popularity of online dating and the prevalance of divorce have made dating with … Read More

Besides the fact that never has a racial minority appeared as the Bachelor or Bachelorette on ABC's long-running reality show, we continued to be surprised by contestant Jason Mesnick's choices on last night's episode. Things that would make us sweat (not in a good way)—like being prepared to move cross-country for someone you've known for 48 hours—seem to make this guy smile. Here, a list of things this Seattle-based single dad likes in a lady:

1. I Want You To Want Me. In episode two, Jason admits he's all about the women who want him and aren't afraid to show it—even … Read More

Besides confirmation that ABC's The Bachelor producers are indeed a bottom-feeding lot (more on this later), viewers of last night's two-hour premiere walked away with some fascinating new tidbits about love. For those who don't watch, the premise of this season's show is that Jason, a 32-year-old single dad from Seattle got down on one knee for Deanna Pappas, the most recent Bachelorette, but was ultimately dissed for a younger, "gnarly dude" of a snowboarder (with whom Pappas has since split). Now, with 3-year-old son Ty in tow, Jason's back on the hunt.

Here, a few of … Read More

Reports that Kate Hudson is continuing to play the field are coming fast and hard (no pun intended – ok, maybe a little). Perez Hilton posts that in a recent interview, Kate Hudson goes on to explain how much she’s enjoying her new freedom as a single woman, saying “I'm actually enjoying being single right now because I really never have been. I feel good in relationships. I enjoy them, so I feel my best when I'm in something solid. But it's also the first time I've ever taken a step back and gotten a new perspective. … Read More
