Today's NO BOYS ALLOWED Guilty Pleasure
The Best Relationship Advice

Every time we're in a couple, relationship advice comes at us like a wild-eyed, drunken old grandfather whom everyone is fond of, but no one's ever quite prepared for. That is to say, it doesn't always show up announced, and we don't always ask for it. So we got curious: what's the best relationship advice of all time? Cuz how's a girl to know if somebody doesn't make an attempt to sift through the riffraff? Feel free to add to the list in the comments if there's something we managed to miss. We're pretty sure these cover all the bases. The Best... CONTINUE READING 6

Tattoos are never-ending, always-there fashion statements. The tattoos that you have can (or should) say a lot about you. What about tattoos on significant others? Are you into guys with permanent markings? What kind of tattoos are okay, and which ones are a complete turn-off? We took to our Staffer’s to see what they thought, and no one said no! YES “I...

Reality TV Hunks
August 13, 2010

Reality TV has taken over so much that we’re starting to think the stars are our BFFs...or potential BFs. We get mad at them, we defend them, and we incorporate them into our daily conversations (yeah, guilty!). In honor of today’s Best Reality TV Show Girlfriend Crew, we’re talking about reality show hotties. Name: Vinny Guadagnino Show: Jersey Shore, MTV Why: Vinny seems the... CONTINUE READING 19

So we’ve done our fair share of talking about forgetting exes (, )—but there’s a brand of former fella we haven’t covered yet. You know him: the guy who won’t go away. He doesn’t get that you don’t want to talk to him, using forgetfulness or drunkenness as an excuse to send you a tipsy text at 3 a.m. Check... CONTINUE READING 46

Potty Protocol
August 6, 2010

So this subject kind of stinks, but it’s a necessary one. When is it the time in your relationship to take that special next step? We’re not talking moving in or marriage…we’re talking when—if ever—is it okay to talk to your significant other about farting, pooping, the works? One Staffer ponders. “I recently had my boyfriend over for an extended period... CONTINUE READING 35

Ah, the various ways to get over a bad break-up—crying until you look like you have pink eye, shaking it on the dance floor till you’ve Single Ladies’d every thought of him out of your skull, ....

We’ve talked about lists before. To do lists, shopping lists, …and now we’re adding the perfect man checklist to…our list! Inspired by the perfect man-ism exalted by the Old Spice Man (jokes aside, that man is damn fine) and some other good fellows (hello, Leo and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Inception), we took to the office and compiled a list of the...

Okay, so National Girlfriends Day is all about celebrating and thanking our girlfriends for all the wonderful stuff they’ve done. But we can’t help but think about some friends who have done stuff that, um, just downright confuses us. One Staffer spills on a pal who changed for every man she went out with. What do you think? “I had a... CONTINUE READING 12

080210_prepping-your-house_home

We’ve all seen classic chick flicks like Clueless, where Cher spends hours trying to get rid of a blotchy face and creating the perfect lighting, throwing rock hard loaves of pre-made cookie dough in the oven because “you always need something baking.” We got to thinking about how to really prepare your pad before inviting a guy over. CLEAN UP! We know... CONTINUE READING 20

Scenario number one: that cute guy FINALLY called and wants to take you out tonight. He’s dying to see Inception, and look at that…so are you! Usually you’d want to hold out, but he’s realllllly cute (as is Leo), so you oblige. Scenario number two: you have plans with a total cutie you’ve been dying to hang with but... CONTINUE READING 23

Every day, someone somewhere is starting a new job, and every day, people in the workplace are forming new relationships. From friends to frenemies to crushes to romances, the workplace, just like anywhere else, is a prime place to meet and mingle. We asked one of our Staffers about a romantic relationship with someone she used to work with. Here... CONTINUE READING 31
