Getting over a Breakup but I Really Miss the Sex!
Dear Sybersue, I haven’t been in a relationship for over 2 years due to my last breakup and all the drama that I had to deal with. I took some time away from men to heal and figure out what the Hell happened because I never want to have go through that again.

Loving When Loving Hurts
People are flawed, full of good intentions perhaps even when their actions aren't what we hoped for. Or maybe their hearts are callous and they planned for you to hurt from the beginning. Either way, the receiving end of the hurt never feels good. So how do we love when loving hurts?

Signs He's Not Being Honest With You
Lack of honesty is one of the biggest reasons people break up. Often, we think of infidelity strictly in terms of an affair, but your partner can also commit emotional infidelity by lying to you. If trust is the foundation of any relationship, then dishonesty is the hammer that cracks it. Sometimes we are able to suspect when our partner is not being truthful, but other times we get completely blindsided. Read up on signs he's not being honest with you so the latter doesn't happen to you.

The Bad Boys
There is something to be said for the bad boys. Ladies, you know what I’m talking about, and if you don’t, go find one. These guys are brooding and dangerous. They aren’t the star quarterback, but probably his best friend. The underdog. The one who makes the entire class laugh but nobody takes serious. They are the ones who show you passion and heartache. They make you take risks and make you see things the nice boys won’t. They can either make you or break you. Mine broke me.

Building Healthy Relationships (Pt. 2)
We have all dealt with jealousy at some point in our lives, or at least, if we haven't, we will. Either we have had to deal with another's jealousy or we have exhibited the emotion ourselves. Jealousy is natural. Under the right circumstances, it emerges. Usually, we can deal with it. We contemplate and rationalize and realize that either immaturity, selfishness, or insecurity is at play. Occasionally, the jealousy becomes uncontrollable and grows into a monster.

How do you know you are dealing with one yourself? There are five major signs to look for.

Grace
What I'm about to talk about is something that I've been learning lately; grace. When I say grace, I mean the unfair, forgiving when I'm not in the wrong, not wanting to have grudges, irrational, against human nature, forgive and forget kind of grace. For myself, I have a tendency to trust really fast, really easy, and that can open myself up to being hurt, or let down, or anything like that. It's cause of my trust that I've really been learning to be in a state of unfair grace, that if/when I get hurt, I forgive and move on. Holding onto things like grudges, anger, bitterness, to anyone or anything is like a genetic disease, it just keeps getting passed on to the next generation.

How Not To Be a Creepo
Let's face it, it's kind of jungle out there. Especially if you get your dating inspiration from Fifty Shades, Ariana Grande's videos, or those short videos where two people meet and within 15 minutes it's over... Of course, other public figures like Donald Trump don't help out as their flirting tips might land you in the middle sexual harassment lawsuit...

Picky, Guarded, and Stubborn
I never thought in a million years that I would be the friend that would be getting married. This time last year my then boyfriend of ten months decided he wanted me and only me for the rest of his life. Scary, but a good scary right? Our relationship always felt like we had been together in a past life, within two weeks of knowing one another, not even dating, Steven told me he was falling in love with me. That doesn't happen, only on a really juicy episode of The Bachelor. I remember feeling peace when he opened up and shared that with me. Here is a little side bar. I was up until a year before meeting Steven completely, and utterly terrified of commitment and wouldn't trust any guy that tried to date me. I had expectations that had been grounded in me since I was little, I grew up seeing my parents relationship and I wanted nothing but that. I built up expectations and I also had walls built around my heart, due to the slums that I did allow into my life that hurt me and walked all over me.
