Mel Gibson wants his wife back: What do you think she should do?


Poor, poor Mel. He is missing is wife after leaving her for another woman....
Although Mel Gibson impregnated Oksana Grigorieva with his 8th child, left his wife of 30 years to be with this woman and later regretted it, he is now trying to woo his ex back into his arms.

"He is still in love with Robyn. He realizes he made a huge mistake leaving her." A source has revealed. [blogs.babble]

A huge mistake huh, Mel? A woman who lived with you through DUI after DUI and produced seven children for you and then you allowed pictures to surface of you with another woman? Get over yourself.
Personally, if I had been married to a marry for thirty years, birthed 7 babies, had to deal with Mel's drunk ways and then he left me for a younger version only to realize he had it made with me, I'd say: Too Bad!
Do you think Mel's Ex-Wife should even consider taking him back?

John Mayer's Continual Quest to Make Sure He Never Dates Again


I have always been a fan of Mr. Mayer. He is an absolute genius in his ability with the guitar.When he played 'Human Nature' at Michael Jackson's memorial, I was stunned at his appreciation and understanding of musical theory. His lyrics about love are so heartfelt you know he has been through pain when dealing with love; Who hasn't?

I have defended him countless times in his understandings with love but this time, he has gone too far.

In Playboy's March issue, John Mayer rants on again about his past relationships with Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston. [Playboy]

When asked about his relationship with Jessica Simpson he responds, "That girl, for me, is a drug. And drugs aren't good for you if you do a lots of them. Yeah, that girl is like crack cocaine for me."

He doesn't end there either. He goes on to describe intimate details with Simpson.

"Sexually it was crazy. That's all I'll say." But he doesn't...

"It was like napalm, sexual napalm. Did you ever say, "I want to quit my life and just f****** snort you? If you charged me $10,000 to f****** snort you, I would start selling my s*** to keep f****** snorting you."

And then he feels a little remorse describing his sexual past in such detail, enough to stop his mouth from rambling on further. Mayer feels he may hurt Jennifer Aniston's feelings by detailing his emotions about another woman.

"Pardon me for interrupting. I love Jen so much that I'm now thinking about how bad I would feel if she read this and was like, "Why are you putting me in an article where you are talking about someone else? I don't want to be in your lineage of kiss-and-tell girls."

In the game of love, detailing past love affairs is a no-no. The only time you can't shut up about someone else is when you are not over them. Bringing up their name just you can hear it aloud is a tell-tale sign you are not over someone.

Luckily with Mayer's continual quest to tell the world he is not over his past love, Jennifer Aniston, no other woman will have to endure hearing about her own sexual antics broadcasted on the web.

The Bachelor's Double Standard: It's alright for the boys but not for the girls


I have to admit it: This season I have been sucked into the Bachelor. For some reason, my husband turned it on the first night it aired and we can't stop watching it! Granted my husband is from Richmond where Rozyln, "THE CHEATER", is from. The chatter from our Facebook pages were loaded with a steady stream of gossip from her appearance on the show. A friend of mine actually used to date her when he was in high school.


Coming up on Monday's The Ellen Degeneres Show, Ellen asks Jake if he has found his soul mate. Jake responds by admitting he never knew he could possibly have feelings for more than one person.


"The world tells you that your heart can only be in love with one woman at a time, and that is absolutely not true." He tells Ellen. "That is one of the things I learned on the show." [People.com]


Yes, many people Jake have been in love with two people at one time. Haven't they? The hard part is deciding which one you love the most, right?


The thing that really gets me about this show and Jake's reaction to Rozlyn's betrayal is a question I want to ask of you?


If Rozlyn's laying her hand on a staff member constitutes as "cheating" then what is it considered when Jake goes around kissing every other woman on that show?

Vanity Fair Sells Tiger Shirtless and You Will Buy It


There is something to be said about nudity: People look.

Playboy would have never survived if men and women didn't want to see other people's nakedness open for other's to see. Peep shows have been around since the beginning of time. Remember in James Cameron's, Titanic, how men stole lustful glances at Kate Winslet's character when only her ankle was exposed for the air to breathe? It's an ankle! The industry that sells sex as a mainstream product from cola to cell phones continues to show promise.
There is something to be said about the human body unclothed. People seem to love it.

In Vanity Fair's February issue, Tiger Woods stands shirtless for the world to see. While pumping iron with sultry look at hand, Tiger Woods gives the world a sense into his world, "Pre-Scandal."

Shot by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz before the media grasped it's hand into Tiger's struggles with adultery and drug use, Tiger Woods as he wanted you to see him.

Nickname Gone Wrong


Misunderstandings are inevitable in relationships. Someone says something the other interprets to mean as something else.
Like, "I love that shirt" when sarcasm drips from your tongue and they take it as it's your favorite ever and they in turn wear it until the day they die. Or maybe, you say "I love that shirt" and mean it, but they think you are being sarcastic. As soon as they take the shirt off, it will never see the light of day again.

The other day I was thinking about a nickname given to me once by a friend. I hated when he called me it. I would cringe in my boots when he would say it to me. It sounded like a slam. Looking back though, I think it was more a term of endearment than anything.

Have you been given a nickname at any point you hated?

Michelle Obama Says Women Who Ogle Her Husband Should "Get a life."


In Christopher Andersen's new book, Barack and Michelle: Portrait of an American Marriage, he writes of the relationship between the two during the campaign trail.

During the campaign, many over-eager female fans were more than happy to reach out and touch the then senator and where their hands wound up may shock you. Obama actually said, "Jesus, I wish they'd stop grabbing my a**."

Mrs. Obama had her words for her husband's admirers. "I want to tell these women, 'Back off,' " Andersen quotes her as saying. "It's just embarrassing, that's all." [via People]

And while some of these situations would drive the First Lady into giving the President the silent treatment, Andersen quotes a source suggesting Michelle personally managed to help remove a particular campaign worker from Barack's view once the working relationship had grown closer than she liked.

Why if I was a man I wouldn't date Megan Fox or for that fact, anyone like her...


When Megan Fox first appeared on the Hollywood scene, she looked to me as a beautiful young woman with the world at her fingertips. Starring alongside Hollywood's next Johnny Depp, Shia LeBeouf, in the hit Transformers, Megan Fox was eye candy for all sexes. But the more she opens her mouth in interviews and the like, her charisma has worn thin. Very, very thin.

She models for the cover of this month's Cosmopolitan. As a gift someone gave me for Christmas, I receive this magazine on a monthly basis. Hopefully, I will not receive the same gift next year because with three children in the house, the cover more or less represents a porn magazine with a couple of beauty tips thrown in The last time I was in Wal-Mart, I noticed the front partially covered with the plastic frame usually used to prohibit the young eyes of children from looking when a Playboy or Penthouse magazine is being sold. The magazine used to not be this way. Anyways, enough of that...

Megan Fox could be the compared to Kanye West with her self importance attitude and mouthy shows of unintelligence. This leads me to try and save men who think they want a woman like Miss. Fox.


Why Men Shouldn't Date Megan Fox Or Anyone Like Her:


She's always talking about herself: I understand this is part of the job when you are an actress. People are interested in how you live you life when you lead such a seemingly important one. The constant chatter of listen to me, look at me, tell me I'm sane... Enough. Find some self esteem.
She's not sure of her sexuality: “I think people are born bisexual... I have no question in my mind about being bisexual. ... I would never date a girl who was bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I’d never want to sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.” (via The Sun) Huh? You want to have a relationship with this mind set?

She's only nice to certain people: Crew members from the set of Transformers had this to say about her, "Never a thank you. All the crew members have stopped saying hi to Ms. Princess because she never says hello back." (via UsMagazine) Any girl who puts on heirs and is only nice to certain people, probably doesn't have any true friends.

She has a terrible temper: Recently she has said, "...I’ve destroyed the house. I go bats***. I’ve had to say to Brian, ‘You have to go and stop talking to me, because I’m going to kill you. I’m going to stab you with something. Please leave.’" Fox said. "I’d never own a gun for that reason. I wouldn’t shoot to kill. But I would shoot him in the leg, for sure.” (via Usmagazine) I guess if you like to live in fear for your life you should be fine but if not, run don't walk.
She likes to bash your sex: When asked about her relationships with men she says, "I never call them guys. I always called them boys," she explains. "Maybe it’s a superiority complex—my needing to keep them down." (via Eonline) I don't think I would want to date someone who liked to keep me down in order to feel like I had control in the relationship. Aren't relationships give-n-take?

If You Could Go Back, What's One Thing You Would Change In Matters of Love?


I thought we could have a little fun today. I'm really tired writing about some of the "so-called" celebrities that keep popping up in the news for doing absolutely nothing. Spencer and Heidi Pratt for one, She Teases She Has More to "Reveal." Shoot me now, would you? Kim Kardashian is another, Kim Hangs With Kourtney's Baby Daddy. What about the Gosselins? Fight Breaks Out, Cops Called!

After fighting a head cold for the last week and lying in the bed until I can no longer watch another episode of House Hunters, I took out my pen to think. It's hard to think when you are sick, or it is for me. Anyways, I was thinking about a time when I made a decision to do something, I should have never done. It all started with a boy. He broke my heart and dumped me because he said I was too good. I never wanted to hang out drinking or smoking with his pals. You know, things teenagers do... He would say I would rather read a book than hang out with him and his friends. He was right. I didn't want to watch him act like a fool around his buddies but be a different person when I was around. He was right about that.

I was devastated, though. After we broke up, I couldn't understand what I had done wrong. I was too good? Too good? Well, I would show him! I started stealing cigarettes from my mom and smoking them when she was at work. I would sit on the bathroom counter practicing how to light one and inhale just perfectly. It had to look right, you know. I had to look sophisticated. Soon enough, I had it down pat. I looked like I knew how to smoke and been doing it forever. It was time to show off my skills and especially to him.

He watched. He probably thought I was an idiot. I was. We never did get back together but the habit has kept. All for some dumb boy...

If you could go back in time to a point in your life when you acted on a whim in a relationship, what is the one thing you would change.

Would you hang out nude with your friends while married? It Seems McSteamy and His Wife Do...


Eric Dane, best known for his role as Dr. "McSteamy" on Grey's Anatomy, and his wife Rebecca Gayheart have been exposed on the web hanging around nude with their good friend, former Miss Teen USA, Kari Ann Peniche. For the twelve minute tape leaked on the web on Gawker.com Monday, the married couple could been seen intoxicated, lying around naked and hanging out in a jaccuzi tub.


"This is not a sex tape," he adds. "It's guys having fun, hanging out together. There is no sex involved in this."


At one point Gayheart exclaims she is "so high", she needs to lie down. At another time, the friends discuss their porn names."My alter-ego name is Peter," Dane replied, adding, "my dog growing up was called Cocaine, and I lived on Manor Drive, so I'm Cocaine Manor."


The tape reportedly surfaced as part of an official investigation into Peniche's alleged sex-for-hire business.


Miss Kari Ann Peniche seems to be the trouble maker in all of this. She was decrowned Miss Teen USA when she posed for Playboy. Also, she was recently treated for sex addiction on Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab but was kicked off the show for entertaining inappropriate guests and for stealing from her roommate, country singer Mindy McCready.

Jude Law Becoming Father For Fourth Time: In a relationship, whose responsibility is it to take care of birth control?


Reading the news that Jude Law, hot English actor whom looks even hotter in the 2004 drama, Closer, with Clive Owen, Julia Roberts and Natalie Portman, is to become a father for the fourth time. As news outlets emerged with details on the pregnancy with a woman he was once in a relationship with is fascinating to me. Especially when you read the news online and then read the comments posted after the fact. Many shout out, "Use a condom!" or "Heard of a vasectomy?" Others shout back, "Why wasn't she on the pill?" or "What an opportunist!"

Jude Law has three children from his previous marriage with Sadie Frost. The couple divorced in 2003 after admitting he had an affair with the couple's nanny. This time around, he will become a father again with aspiring model/actress Samantha Burke.

"After he left, she found out she was pregnant. She tried to reach him, but the cell phone number she had for him was a temporary number that he only used in New York while filming" the source said. The two met while he was shooting Guy Ritchie's version of Sherlock Holmes, which was filmed in New York last winter.

Whose responsibility is it to take care of the birth control? Should the woman make sure she is protected or should men carry the brunt of this decision?

Maybe both should think about the responsibilty before rushing into bed when lust calls?

Jon Gosselin becomes a reason a woman must quit her job! It must be true love!

Goodness, goodness me! Just when you think Jon Gosselin couldn't get anymore press, he does it again. Star Senior Reporter, Kate Major has resigned citing a conflict of interest from her duties as a reporter because of her blossoming relationship with Jon Gosselin. Could this attention seeking father of eight get anymore press?
Tuesday night, Jon and Kate (no, not his soon to be ex-wife Kate: try and keep up here...) munched on dinner in the Hamptons with Michael Lohan, Lindsay's dad, and Bravo reality star Jill Zare.

"I think it's authentic," Zarin told Usmagazine.com of Gosselin's relationship with Major. "I think it's fast. I think it happened very quickly."

All the while Hailey Glassman, Jon's supposed 22-year old girlfriend, learned from PEOPLE today about the new happy couple. She states: "That's news to me," "I still love Jon and Jon loves me," a teary Glassman said.

Jon is on the prowl, the world has been made aware of this, but is this not hurting his image more and more. He can't stick with one woman for more than a couple of days? It reminds me of the women out there who think when they date and fall in love with a married man, he would never the same thing to her. He will leave his home for her and his wandering eye will never wander again because she is the supreme bee. Wake up women!

Would you consider quitting your job over a man?

What is your breaking point in a relationship?

Okay, we all know I have a terrible habit of a little celebrity interest. Sue me. Who doesn't love picking up a UsWeekly or a People? Who doesn't enjoy the Huffington Post or NY Post: Page Six anyone? It's part of the American right to read trash.

Even men could be held for the crime. They may enjoy it in the privacy of their own bathroom instead of flaunting the glossy pages at the beach or the pool as women do, but they read it.

Samantha Ronson and Lindsay Lohan have hit the skids again? I thought this was old news. Are they not always fighting/breaking up/getting back together? It seems Samantha Ronson came home after what must have been a late night dinner with ex-Soprano actress, Drea de Matteo. The pair returned to Ronson's house at 5 a.m. An hour later, Miss. Lohan shows up banging on the front door of Ronson's home, screaming and yelling, accusing Ronson of being a "liar." To end the fight, Ronson threw a bag of Lindsay's clothes out the front door.

Thankfully, most people do not have to have their lives taped for the world to see, but how much is enough in a relationship before you reach your breaking point? Should Lindsay and Samantha call it quits and try to find a way to stay away from each other? At some point in a unhealty relationship you have to walk away in order to find your sanity, right? My breaking point with this story is now.
What is your breaking point when it comes to a relationship?

When is enough, enough in a relationship?

Top 5 Worst Times to be Dumped


Breakups are never fun but a reality. Recently Jessica Simpson was dumped by long time boyfriend, Tony Romo, the day before her 29th birthday. With a huge themed party planned, this had to be embarrassing to say the least. Today, we learn that San Antonio Spur player, Richard Jefferson, called off his wedding hours before the ceremony was to take place. Though breaking up is hard to do, there are times when it's just downright mean.


Top 5 Worst Times to be Dumped


Number 5: Christmas The presents have been bought. The tree trimmed and the eggnog served. The family is excited you are bringing home someone special and BAM!!! You're through. Instead of kissing under the mistletoe with your babe, you are crying into your pillow at night while caring less about what Santa brought you.


Number 4: Birthday Celebrating your birthday was supposed to be an exciting night of drinks and dinner with friends and your beau, but instead you find yourself single, breaking down and slobbering into your Appletini. Not a nice way to turn a year older.


Number 3: You find out you're sick: Real sick Coming home from the doctor's office with horrible news on your health's condition, your beau seems sympathetic holding you and comforting you on how it will all be alright. Afterwards you notice they have seemed distant, not returning your phone calls or making plans as much as usual. Just as you are beginning treatment on repairing your health, a phone call rocks your world. "It's not you , it's me". Nice.


Number 2: Someone close to you dies You knew your mother had been sick for awhile but the news of her death still shocks you to the core. Needing a shoulder to wail on, you call your significant other. They seem as distraught as you until when you need them the most, attending her funeral, something has come up and maybe a break is order for the relationship. Really sweet.


Number 1: At the altar Months of preparing and planning your wedding can be an exciting and stressful time but you think once this is all over, it will be back to normal in your relationship. Rings will be exchanged and a flight to the sea will be your reward in dealing with the pressures of wedding planning for the last couple of months. Dressed in your beautiful dress or tux waiting to see your loved one walking towards you, a stir in the crowd. Cold feet has claimed another couple. Awesome.

Ken and Barbie call it quits: Did he like her better as the dumb blonde?


Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo have called it quits after two years of dating. A source close to the couple states they Tony broke up with Jessica a night before her 29th birthday, July 1oth. The theme of the party was Ken and Barbie.

Jessica Simpson has recently signed on to do the reality show, The Price of Beauty. With a friend, Jessica scours the country in search of what people perceive as beautiful. She will even attempt some of the things people do in order to become more beautiful. With football season kicking off very soon and the pressure Tony Romo will be under especially when dealing with The Cowboys owner, Jerry Jones, could the pressures of careers become to much?

In better times, Jessica told Glamour magazine, "He reintroduced me to myself. I thought that I had to be deeper, more profound and more artsy. You change with the guys you date."

I thought I had to be deeper, more profound and artsy? You change with the guys you date? He reintroduced my to myself? To me this sounds like Tony Romo liked her to be the ditsy blonde we have all come to loathe instead of a woman searching to become a better person.



Kate Picnics With Kids While Jon Vacations in France With Girlfriend: Who's having more fun here?


While Kate Gosselin picnics with her children in rural Pennsylvania, her soon to be ex-husband is spotted holding hands with his 23-year-old girlfriend aboard Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier's yacht, Saturday in St. Tropez, France.

Kate Gosselin has spoken on how she wants "peace" for her children. Jon Gosselin has stated, "I'm only 32 years old. I don't know what's going to happen." He has also been quoted as "excited" about this next chapter in his life.

My mother and father divorced when I was eight. I watched as the duties of my mother doubled into being both parents. She worked full-time. Then she would rush home to make dinner for me and try and spend as much quality time she could before exhaustion set in. Without my father around during much of the week and only spending every other weekend with me, much of the parenting of me fell heavily on her shoulders. While he was away attending this party and that party and then off on hunting trips with his buddies, the presence he held as my father faded to a man whom saw me when he "could."

Many women involved in relationships with men that end with children in the picture, become the sole provider of the well being of the children. In 2005, the single parent family statistics show that of these, 84 % of the custodial parents are mothers, while fathers make up the remaining 16 % of single custodial parents. More that one in four families is headed by a single parent, with three out of four of these being single mothers.

Looking at Jon and Kate Gosselin, while she stays at home playing and nurturing her children, Jon is off gallivanting in the tropics with a new lady friend.

In relationships where children are involved, when a type of break occurs in the relationship do you feel that most times, the women are the ones that have to deal with the responsibilities of raising children more than the man? Do men come out easier from a divorce with children than the woman?

Is that President Obama checking out an underage girl?


This week while attending the G8 Summit in Italy, where the focus is supposed to be on oil prices, the global economy and climate change, The Leader of the Free World was caught eyeing a 16 year old Brazilian activist for UNICEF. It seems the man next to Obama seems quite humored about the look too. I keep wondering was Michelle thinks about her husband checking out the backside of a girl not much older than his daughters?

Maybe he liked her shoes?

Do Men Think Women Love To Clean?


The kids are gone for two weeks and tomorrow hubby and I are off to the beach for ten days! Ten days of silent bliss. I am very excited.

I wrote previously on my children's sad departure as they pulled from the driveway this past weekend. I have cried my last cry and am enjoying the alone time with myself and my hubby. I have gotten chores done around the house that would never have been attempted if the children were around. I mean you can't trash toys that are literally junk around kids. Even if it's a Barbie car with one wheel, if you make a slight suggestion that maybe it's on it's last leg and should be tossed in the garbage, an excuse will be found on why it must remain in the toy box. "But Aunt BeBe gave it to us before she died," or "But it's Dottie's favorite." Speaking of Dottie, she's a stuffed deer. It's impossible to rid your home of old toys when children are around to see.

We head out tomorrow for my husband's father's beach house. We have previously stayed her multiple times before. As always, the only request about the house is when you leave, leave it the way it was.

Earlier my husband met his father for the keys and helped him run an errand. Well, it seems as if someone hadn't left the house in tip top shape and now we have been given handwritten instructions on how to leave it this time. I'm fine with this but the funny thing was, when hubby returned home, he handed me the list. ( I know he did it not even thinking about what I may read into it.)

Why, oh why do men think women love to clean up? Is there a sign above women's head that say, Let Me Clean For You. I wonder why the list was mine for the holding?

Do men really think we pray for instructions on what to clean next? Is this sexist to think this way or just natural?

Who's obsessed? Mariah or Eminem


Mariah Carey pulls a funny in her new music video. While filming her new video "Obsessed" in New York today, Mariah Carey dresses as Eminem, the controversial rapper who has targeted her in his recent song, "Bagpipes From Baghdad." In the lyrics Eminem warns Carey's husband, Nick Cannon, to "back the f--- up."

In Carey's new song, she fires back by asking, "Why are you obsessed with me/lying that you're sexing me?"

Speaking in terms of obsession in relationships it seems as if the two of them are both obsessed with mentioning one another in each other's songs.
At one point or another, most people have a person that becomes an target of their time. They think of them constantly and imagine what it would be like if the two were together. They look and relook at pictures of them. With all of the social networking sites available now, you have to admit it's easier than ever to look at people's pictures. They write poems or stories or songs about the person. They doodle their names interlocked. It's a nasty habit that takes some time to untwine yourself from once the behavior takes hold.


What's your take on the whole Eminem/ Mariah Carey saga? Are they obsessed with one another?

I guess the ring wasn't big enough? Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minillo Split


Earlier this month Vanessa Minillo was eager to squash the split rumors by flashing a five carat ring at the media and went on to say "It will be 10 carats when it moves to the fourth finger!"


It seems that it wasn't so happy in the "heartland" and the two have called it quits. Maybe after hearing the statement above, he realized she was a materialistic queen?

Did your parents mess up your view of relationships?

My mother and father divorced when I was eight. After living without my parents married to one another, I decided I didn't have to get married either. Why when the outcome can be so messy?

Years went by and then one day I met a man and we moved in with one another. We had a daughter. Such a cute little thing but had some serious stomach issues as a baby... whew. We shared the responsibilities with each other. He took out the trash while I cooked. I cleaned the bathrooms and he cleaned the litter box. We took turns changing diapers and giving baths. Everything was perfect or so I thought. It all happened so fast. I never saw it coming.

He asked me to marry him.

What? I asked. I thought we were happy?All this time I had been avoiding this question and here it was. What was I to do? I loved him, yes. I wanted to spend my time with him, we have a blast together. I wanted to lie down every night beside him, he has a nice tummy to put my head on. He didn't like to take baths that much at the time, seriously that issue has gotten better... yay! I had to think about this one.

After the years of dealing with my parents mistakes and their love life, was I going to fall right into their footsteps and get married? What if it didn't work out? My daughter would be the one to suffer the most, I thought. Happily she would be living her life, thinking everything was hunky dory and then one day her parents would get tired of one another and they would split. I wasn't sure if I wanted to place that on her. After some thinking and then some shopping, I started to change my mind. I would have to take a chance on this love thing and in the end I might lose but he might lose too.

There is a funny, funny thing about marriage. After the years pass your love does change as some people worry about. It flips and floats and meanders along. At times you will get on one another's last nerve but you know what? It's cool. Send him out of town for a weekend with the boys. I like to think of it as family and a family is all I ever wanted.

Having seen what your parents went through in their marriage, did it ever hinder your love decisions?

Watching them, did it make you more aware of what you didn't want in your relationships?
