14 Types Of Non-Relationships This Generation Has Learned To Accept

These days, if you sit down to talk about your relationship with the person who has your spare PJs in his closet, he says, “Let’s not put a label on this.” So cool! So modern! So… CONFUSING. Whether or not you’re “dating” in the traditional sense, you and this person you’re regularly seeing (naked) are involved in SOME sort of relationship, right? According to our generation and its dominating hook-up culture, we accept vague definitions of romance… no matter how crazy it makes us.

Where women and men like to be touched

In a new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers mapped the areas of the body where men and women feel comfortable being touched and found that it really depends on the relationship. Red areas on the body maps below show where both the male and female respondents said they would be uncomfortable being touched by different people, ranging from partners to strangers.

Yellow and white areas indicate where they would feel comfortable being touched. The blue lines (outlining the crotch and the buttocks in many cases) indicate "taboo zones," where absolutely no touching in that area would be comfortable.

Joe Rogan Has Some Solid Advice On Relationships You Need To Hear

I love Joe Rogan for his openness and honesty and also for his ability to communicate on a very ‘real’ level which everyone will be able to understand. I firmly believe that only when we learn to love ourselves will we be able to love everyone in our lives. It’s very hard to teach people this, we can only show them the way and then they have to teach themselves but listening to videos like this will most certainly help on the journey of self-education.

Wait! Don't Get Married Unless You've Asked Your Partner These 15 Questions

If you’re thinking about popping the question, you might want to be extra clear on these 15 questions. 1) If we have kids, who will be the primary caregiver? Will it be split evenly between us? 2) Are we clear on each others financial obligations and goals? Do our ideas of spending and saving work? 3) What are our expectations for cleanliness of the house? 4) Have we discussed fully our overall health history?
