While its name is reminiscent of the “6-7” expression that’s gone viral and seeped into the vocabulary of Gen Alphas, the two are very different. The 6-7 dating trend encourages people to consider partners who fall in the middle of the arbitrary attractiveness scale — a six or seven out of 10. The idea is that these “mid-range” partners may be more reliable, thoughtful, and emotionally available than someone who ranks higher. Proponents of the theory argue that those perceived as conventionally attractive — a 10 out of 10 — are often less mature or attentive in relationships because high desirability can foster self-focus and reduce the incentive …

In the fall of 2004, as an underemployed freelance journalist drawn to heady stories about international politics, I had the bright idea of traveling to the notoriously closed country on a tourist visa. Press visas for Iran were hard to come by, and my travel was exploratory—I had no particular assignment. My profile was low, I figured. Who would care if, between the obligatory sightseeing expeditions, I rattled around Iranian cities meeting political analysts, philosophers, students, filmmakers, and the relatives of Iranian expats I knew?

Photographer Wonders If He Should Refund Bride After Staff Member Hooked Up With Groom

Published by Jenni Sidey

An anonymous wedding photographer asked for advice on the subreddit r/WeddingPhotography after a colleague betrayed him and the newlyweds they worked with. He found himself in an incredibly awkward situation after he discovered that another photographer he doesn’t usually work with hooked up with the groom from the wedding they shot. The angry bride thinks the photographer should take full responsibility even though he had no control over what happened. The bride wants a refund on her wedding photos after learning her new husband cheated on her with one of their wedding photographers.  The photographer explained that his usual co-photographer couldn’t make it to a wedding he photographed a few months ago, so he hired someone else whom he found online with top-notch skills. They photographed the wedding, edited the pictures, and sent them over to the bride and groom after the wedding. “Everything seemed business as usual,” he reported.

‘It was an exorcism’: how heartbreak, queer rebirth and finding love over Only Connect shaped Wendy Eisenberg’s stunning new album | Music

Published by Sam Flores

It’s 30 December 2023. Wendy Eisenberg is walking and cannot stop. At an all-night rave in Bushwick featuring Detroit house legend Theo Parrish the previous night, they became paralysed by anxiety, returned home, “threw up a lot” and then set off with no destination in mind. “I walked for that entire day,” Eisenberg says by video call from their Brooklyn home. “I couldn’t stop moving my legs. I felt like I needed to reauthor myself, and this was how I was going to do it.” While out on their fevered walk, Eisenberg ran into an old friend. “She told me: ‘You seem like you’re having a kind of exorcism.’ Then she added: ‘Maybe just play some guitar?’” Thus diagnosed, Eisenberg went home immediately and began writing the music that became their sublime new self-titled album. “I remember reading how Cat Power wrote Moon Pix in 10 hours, in a dream state,” says Eisenberg. Many of these songs were written in a similar state, across three or four months after that “strange, mystical moment”. In the …

Kelly Osbourne revealed her family’s efforts to repurchase the home where they filmed their early noughties MTV reality show, weeks after announcing her separation from her Slipknot fiancé.  The 41-year-old daughter of Black Sabbath’s Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne explained how she and her family had been trying to buy back the house in the iconic 90210 Beverly Hills postcode, but the new owners refused to sell.  Living at the 513 Doheny Road mansion while filming their iconic MTV reality show, The Osbournes, Kelly kick-started her on-screen career in the house alongside her parents and her brother, Jack.  Since her father’s death in July last year, the mum-of-one revealed she had been involved in plans to bring the infamous Mediterranean-style home back into the Osbournes’ lives.  The famous family first moved into the six-bedroom, nine-bathroom gated home in March 2002 and lived there until 2007, when the property was sold to pop star Christina Aguilera, who stayed in the home for four years.  During a chat with Omaze for their Homes That Made Me series, Kelly …

You can try to hold on to the love you felt at the beginning of your relationship, but you might be ignoring signs you’re not in love with your partner anymore. This can happen even after years of a mostly good marriage.

Attorney Warns That Phubbing Is Legit Grounds For Divorce | Ronald Bavero

Phubbing is a word coined some time ago by combining the words “phone” and “snubbing.” In the context of marriage and other romantic relationships, it is simply ignoring a spouse or romantic partner in favor of scrolling on a phone. Emma Seppälä, a psychologist at Stanford and Yale universities, told Time, “Ironically, phubbing is meant to connect you, presumably, with someone through social media or texting. But it actually can severely disrupt your present-moment, in-person relationships.” Phubbing leads to marital dissatisfaction … and potentially divorce.  A few signs your partner is habitually phubbing:  Does your spouse check their phone every time it rings, even at the dinner table? Are they constantly looking at their phone while you are having a conversation with them? Do they take their phone with them everywhere they go, including the bathroom (no pun intended)? Are they half-heartedly listening to you while they are texting someone else? Do they bring their phone to bed and use it while lying next to you? Does your partner start to use their phone when …
