I have always loved the greeting card aisle. I love looking at the designs, which have gotten so much more sophisticated, indie-artsy, and embellished over the years. (I do like to send a little glitter and bling now and then!) I like reading the sentiments inside, deciding if that's how...

Why does it seem that the best stories come from my friends who are either 1) newly-single and doing the "Divorced Girls Gone Wild" thing, or 2) well past their post-divorce dating and annoyingly happy with their new boyfriend? Thank God for my good friend who falls somewhere in between,...

This is the second in a 3-part series from author Ginger Emas about The Men We Date, and how to open up to new possibilities.

Every woman needs to see the new Justin Bieber movie, Never Say Never.

Why?

And perhaps no one needs...

I don't know when it started--if it even started or if I was born this way. But I have always been attracted to men of a certain "type," even when I was young and the men weren't even men yet, but still boys.

I grew up enamored with guys who...

Today is my birthday, but I woke up thinking about another birthday, nearly six years ago. It was the 40th birthday of my dearest friend -- my ex-husband, Jon, who was, at the time, still my husband. We had been separated for five months after 13 years of marriage (and...

Our Blended Family's Hilarious Version of "The Night Before Christmas"

It was the first time I wished that I wasn't so Jewish.
My boyfriend, a 7th Day Adventist he,
Was bouncing off walls filled with...

Thanksgiving is an interesting time for my family and me. I typically make the 10-hour car trek to South Florida from Atlanta with my son, my boyfriend of three years, and my ex-husband, so we can be with my entire family.

This year marks the six-year anniversary of my...

Listen, there is one thing that the exes of Sandra Bullock, Christina Aguilera, Courteney Cox, Britney Spears and even Kate Gosselin won't have to go through. (Okay, maybe Jon will go through this). And that's the Brazilian wax.
