Romantic relationships in the 21st century
This year I discovered what a situationship is. From the outside looking in, it’s easy to say – “if we’re not exclusive after 4 months, I’m walking away”. But in reality, that’s easier said than done. You grow used to the way it feels sleeping next to them, the way their hair falls over their […]

She explains that “feminism is about giving women choice. […]
