The period known as Empty Nest Syndrome marks a pivotal transition in the lives of parents whose children have spread their wings and ventured into the world.

In the journey of life, our relationships stand as cornerstones, shaping our experiences, growth, and our understanding of the world and ourselves.

Emotional affairs may be more common than we realize. An emotional affair involves having non-sexual emotional intimacy with someone who is not your romantic and committed partner.

We have all seen it happen in shows and movies. The arguing (*gasp* doomed) couple goes to a couples therapist as a last resort, and before you know it, the couple is storming out, dismissing the therapist and either calling it quits or completely ignoring the red flags or concerns pointed out by the therapist in the hopes of helping.

No matter how many times I have seen it, no matter how many different ways Hollywood re-vamps the same old meet-cute, I am all for watching couples fall in love… and I know I am not the only one.
