I guess it depends on whether you're sure the person is a genuine better fit, or you're suffering from "grass is greener" syndrome. I've never ended a serious relationship because I felt someone else was a better fit (it never came up), but that was part of my ex-husband's motivation for ending our marriage. We were… Read more
This, with a caveat. I was in a comfortable relationship that was starting to get very serious, and then I met Mr.SuperCalaWhat, and immediately knew I'd rather be with him than my boyfriend. I then broke up with my boyfriend BEFORE initiating a relationship with Mr., because I realized it didn't matter if Mr and I… Read more
Cosigned. I realize I'm especially sensitive about this issue because I just had Tyler Perry's Temptation on (hadn't seen it, on Amazon Prime, now regret watching it) and I am just sickened by the narrative that a woman owes her relationship something. Not owes the other person, but that women as a whole should… Read more
Oh man, so much of this is good... but this? This is incorrect. Read more
Absolutely agree. If people weren't pressured to value monogamous relationships over non-monogamous relationships or being single and having casual, nonexclusive things, there would be less cheating.

Monkey bar dating. Some people are terrified of being single so instead of breaking up with someone they stay until they find a replacement. Most people outgrow this stage sometime during middle school. Less mature, chicken shit individuals never do. Read more
Callie, I will miss you so much!!! You are one of my favorite writers ever and I look forward to reading Vice on a regular basis because you and Tracie are over there. Thank you for being so awesome and for laughing at all my dumb jokes over Gchat. Your dirtbags were always my inspiration for Saturday dirtbags.
How old is your daughter?? There are several very good books about touching and touches that are not okay. As a child molestation survivor I told my daughter all of the proper names for all parts of her body from a young age and now that she's ten and beginning puberty I got her this book which covers pretty much… Read more
Ha. I say that every morning when my husband is getting dressed :P Read more
We've always used the proper terms with our kiddo (I'm a biologist, I'm not going to call it a wee-wee or a hoo-haa or whatever). She was then told by other kids she was saying "bad words." Her teacher started to tell her not to say those and she proudly said "My mommy says those are the right words and not to use… Read more
Jessica, I owe you my career and, in a way, my sanity. You were there for me professionally when I lacked confidence, and personally when I needed a friend (without you, I have no idea what I would have done last year). Read more
You can do it; but it takes YEARS of dedicated practice and good teachers. I'm a Massachusetts native, and I went into broadcast news. I had to tape myself, listen to myself, and talk to myself with the dedication of a Marine recruit going through basic training to go from a 5-thousand watt radio station on the NH… Read more
