Do You Have A Jealous Partner?
Bella Breakdown Feelings of jealousy, not even in relationships, but just life in general are totally common. How you decide to act on those feelings though, is a totally different story. In life, you can use jealousy to fuel your career and put you ahead. However, fueled jealousy in a relationship has the potential to be really damaging. Jealous partners can come off as controlling, paranoid, and needy. We run into a large problem today with social media and smart phones.

Strictly Business
Bella Breakdown Before dating apps and online dating became an integral way to meet someone, you were more apt to meet a potential partner out in public, or at work. Office romances have always been around, but in the last decade have been at an all-time low. I guess Jim and Pam weren’t all that inspirational after-all. A survey that was taken in 2008 in regards to interoffice romance, showed that 40% of workers dated a coworker. However when the survey was taken again in 2017, only 36% of workers admitted to dating a coworker. 41% of the people...

It’s super convenient, but apparently it’s also damaging our relationships....
Moving Forward After Cheating
Bella Breakdown Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson are not the first couple to be caught up in a cheating scandal, nor will they be the last. Cheating, it seems, happens more often than anyone would like to acknowledge. In the days when reality television rules all, we often witness a lot of couples go through the aftermath of infidelity when one, or sometimes both parties, have had an indiscretion.
