Dear Poll: Has a Rebound Relationship Ever Worked Out For You?

There seems to be an unspoken rule that rebound relationships end in heartbreak, but I happen to think they're just more of a gamble than an absolute disaster waiting to happen. Yes, going through the motions with someone when your/his heart is clearly somewhere else isn't fair to either party, but love has no boundaries, so who says it can't work out? I may just be a sucker for love so tell me, Read more

A Do or a Don't: Rebound Dating

I’ve often heard it said that the best way to get over someone is to start dating someone new. And while I’m certainly not against that notion, I do believe that some real alone time for reflection and recuperation can be a lot better than a rebound guy.

You Asked: Should I Wait for Him?

DearSugar -- The man that I have been in love with for several years is finally divorced. He called at first and I just didn't give him the green light because I felt that he needed some time alone, or playing the field before starting up a relationship. When I did not jump in, I think he felt a bit rejected and he hasn't called in a couple of months. I know that from the start we have had a Read more

Study Finds Parents Fatter Than Childless Adults

The headline "Having Kids Might Make Young Women Heavier, Less Fit" is far from groundbreaking, and in fact, it leaves me scratching my head at how these results are making headlines in the first place.
