For some, being single and dating is a lot of fun, but for others, being single can be frustrating, lonely, and just plain exhausting. I think both have their pros and cons, but if you've been feeling unlucky in love,
Rabbi Shmuley's (of Oprah fame) 12 steps to falling in love might be of some help.
- Admit you can't fall in love: Since many people couple up to avoid loneliness, Shmuley feels that admitting the reason why you want to fall in love will help gain realistic expectations.
- Get help: Opening up about wanting to, but having a difficult time finding love will help alleviate some of the pressure and burden.
- Heal the love wounds: Make amends with former lovers you may have hurt in the past.
The ladies from
Sex and the City were on
Oprah yesterday and while their visit was mainly all about the movie, they touched upon some other hot topics as well, age being one of them. All the women, including Oprah herself, were in agreement when saying their 20s were overrated, in fact Kristen Davis went so far to say that she was "kind of unhappy" in her 20s and she didn't know who she was. As someone that's about to be 30 myself, (gasp!!) I'm intrigued to see what all the hype's about.
I might be late in the game on this one, but I was catching up on my DVR last night and caught Monday's episode of
Oprah. Drew Barrymore was one of the guests and she was gushing about her new love Justin Long,
among many other important topics. When Oprah asked her how this relationship is different from previous ones, part of Drew's response was that she has grown up and decided who she wants to be.
I recently saw an episode of
Oprah where she interviewed Mitch Albom, the author of
For One More Day. It's a brilliant book that was made into a movie that explores the question, "What would you do if you could spend one more day with a lost loved one?"
Of course, it would be the opportunity that you'd never forget so ladies, do tell: If you could have one more day with someone who has passed away, who would you want to see and what would you tell him or her?
