It’s the age-old debate: Can you get out of the friend zone? And more importantly, how do you stay out of the friend zone?

They have the body of a 27-year-old, but the maturity of a toddler.  Here are the top five signs that you’re dating a man child: Read more

Dealing with a blow off is never fun. We’ve all been there and often the worst blow off comes from a guy. As women, we believe that we should have the power because we have the pussy.
