Delete. The launch of a new cake flavored vodka made especially for tampon soakage? .... Archive. But the other week, one…
Remember the 300 $andwiches Lady? You know, the food blogger who says her boyfriend told her that once she made him 300 $andwiches, he'd buy her an engagement ring in what of course was not a shamelessly craven gimmick to get a book deal? Well: she's only 100 $andwiches away. And her boyfriend wants advice on how to…
Tabloid trendpieces should be taken with an entire shaker of salt. But the headline "Over Half of Women Admit They Have Woken Up In A Bad Mood With Their Partner Because He Annoyed Them... In A DREAM" does not require any additional sodium. It is 100% correct, based on totally unscientific anecdata.
No relationship is entirely devoid of secrets; I once went out with a guy for 6 months without him knowing where I lived (I forget why I did this; I was 24 and now that I think of it, the whole thing may have been an experiment? I don't know). But whoever said all's fair in love and war has obviously never attempted to …
You know how we've always assumed that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is your boyfriend? Well, it turns out we were really, really wrong. (Unless we're not. Wait, is it you?? I won't tell anyone; you can trust me!!)
Women are doing better than ever in school, and sometimes their male significant others can't stand to see them succeed.

If you're in the market for a boyfriend but are wary about making a big investment in love, perhaps you should consider renting instead of buying. "Rental boyfriends" are the latest booming business in China.
Just what you didn't know that your day needed: a video that combines your recommended daily allowance of your new boyfriend—The Artist's dreamy Jean Dujardin, guns, Muppets, and a hearty helping of laughter. Drop everything that isn't a baby and watch this.
We don't recommend breaking up with your significant other around the holidays. Don't break up with them right before Christmas, right after Christmas, and definitely not on the actual day of Christmas. The same goes for Hannukkah, Kwanzaa, and any other holiday you may be celebrating this December — including New…
Meet Thad Johnson. He's looking for his soulmate — and it might be you! In this rousing video, he details a day in his life and here are just a few of his qualities: he brushes his teeth with mouthwash, has a very-defined moustache, and has appeared on all three CSI shows — as a deceased victim. Sounds like a winner,…
Non-Italian non-murderer Amanda Knox is slowly but surely readjusting to free life stateside after spending nearly 4 years in Italian prison. She dressed up as a mustachioed cat burglar for Halloween. She's speaking English again. And now it looks like she's got herself an American-style boyfriend, complete with a…
A woman in Houston is being charged with felony stalking after calling her ex boyfriend over 1,000 times in three months, breaking his kitchen window with a five-foot sword, and documenting her heartbreak on a rambling blog dedicated how she couldn't understand why that goddamn bastard didn't love her anymore.

And what if he refuses to…
Do you love Google? Do you dig the way Gmail suggests you CC some folks you might have forgotten in a chain of messages? How it recommends products you need to buy based on the words you've typed in an email? How it fills in your search query before you've even figured out what you're actually searching for?

It's not news that girls are feeling more pressure than ever to be perfect. As I've written before in my posts on the Martha Complex, this generation of teen girls is more stressed about, well, everything, than any generation of women before them.* The pressure to do well in school, the pressure to please parents and…

Over the weekend, it was reported that Madonna was spotted with a dancer and choreographer named Brahim Rachiki. So who is this guy?
A Daily Beast gallery of "Chelsea's Exes" (that both claims to feature her "5 great flames" and showcases the rumored dalliance with Ben Affleck) has the rest of us thanking the good lord our romantic pasts aren't up for scrutiny.
