Reading in bed together, while it might not be a major milestone — like marriage or having children — truly is a significant event in a relationship.

This isn’t Sleeping Beauty. There’s no prince coming to rescue you. What relationship beliefs are standing in your way?

My whole life, people have been telling me I’m “too much." It's BS.

Does chronic anxiety ever make you feel like a flake?

No regrets about having kids? Maybe it’s time we all came clean.

No energy at 3PM? The mid-afternoon slump is a well-known phenomenon.

In a marriage, should you really feel lonely that much of the time? And if so, then how lonely is too lonely?

My anxiety doesn’t mean I can’t be a good parent. In fact, it makes me a better one.

Is it possible that talking about your relationship less could actually be the key to making it better? Sometimes, stop talking and just let yourselves be.
