I’ve written about men and commitment here, here and here but one question I get asked again and again is what to do when a guy is afraid of commitment. It’s a tricky question to answer because the way men and women view commitment is uniquely shaped by their experiences. Some people have grown up…
I need to preface this post by saying that Cristian and I did not stay within our $10k wedding budget but if we were to do it all over again, there are costs we could have cut to get there. Having been recently married, all the budget tips are still fresh on my mind. Here…
As a dating and relationships blogger/coach, I’m grateful that I get to chat to singles and couples about their relationships on a daily basis. The issues they come to me with are always slightly different from the other but there’s always one underlying theme – one thing these relationships lack. And that one thing lacking in…
Whenever I travel, the thing I look forward to most is coming home to my own bed. Not this time. Having been back from Hayman Island for 2 days, I’m already missing the comforts of the luxury resort. But there is so much more to my honeymoon destination than fancy marble floors, spacious bedrooms and…
I confess – if you were to spend most week nights with me, I am no fun. I sit in front of my laptop, tune out the background noise and write. I don’t speak whilst I’m doing this so the only thing you’d hear from me is the sound of the keyboard. But my husband-to-be…

I’ve written about mediocre relationships before but was surprised by the number of people who’ve cruised through not so loving relationships. The latest study by www.elitesingles.com.au has revealed some surprising truths about the state of Australians’…
This post was scheduled in my calendar but I couldn’t think of a more timely week to post it. Every time I turn on the tv or scan the headlines, I see words about war, hate, threats and people being killed. I see people, politicians shifting blame. I see rants about Muslims and criticism over…
There are people who celebrate 3, 6 and 9 month anniversary but for me, the one year mark is the relationship milestone. It takes 6 months to really get to know someone but by 12 months you would have seen the other person for who they are, flaws and all – and still love them….
It was last Wednesday, 8.47pm. I know this because I was texting a friend to confirm our dinner plans for the next evening – whilst my boyfriend was trying to tell me about his day. I was nodding to acknowledge I was listening but by the time I had put down my phone, everything he’d…
