[ad_1] A pastor recently stood before his congregation and preached what many quietly consider an unspoken rule of marriage: couples should have regular dutiful sex which he termed as “maintenance sex.” The idea being that when you eat well at home, you won’t go looking for food elsewhere. It sounds practical on the surface, even logical. But I’ve been sitting with it, and the more I think it through, the more I believe that preaching this from a pulpit (giving it religious weight and public legitimacy) causes more harm than it prevents. Not because the underlying desire for connected, frequent intimacy…

To understand how people are actually navigating the intersection of love and money, Mercury, a fintech platform that offers business and personal banking services*, surveyed 1,400 U.S. adults in committed relationships — spanning generations, income levels,…

[ad_1] I’ve hit my limit. The negative comments. The personal horror stories. The long list of insults I see thrown around at past or present partners with insecure attachment styles. Dismissive avoidants. Fearful avoidants. Anxious preoccupied. Every time I write something about attachment styles, the comment section fills up with the same energy. “Run away from these people.” “They should be in a psychiatric ward.”“They’re all toxic.” I get it. I really do. Dating someone who struggles with their attachment style can be exhausting. Confusing. Triggering. If you could rewind the clock and avoid the experience entirely, many of…
[ad_1] By Nooreen Biag for CreditNinja Living paycheck to paycheck is no longer limited to low-income households. In 2025, Americans earning $100,000 a year are more likely to report living paycheck to paycheck than those earning $50,000.

Understanding why higher earners struggle financially requires examining lifestyle inflation, savings habits, and debt trends across income levels, CreditNinja explains.

[ad_1] We have been lied to by cinema. We grew up watching protagonists chase each other through airports, scream in the rain, and thrive on “will-they-won’t-they” tension. We were taught that if a relationship doesn’t leave you breathless and slightly anxious, it’s probably not “the one.” We’ve been conditioned to believe that love is a high-speed chase, a series of grand gestures, and an exhausting rollercoaster of emotions. But as we grow older, we realize that anxiety isn’t chemistry. And chaos isn’t passion. In fact, those very “fireworks” we were told to look for are often just red flags dressed…
