Hello Darlings,

In less than a month it's my 24th birthday, and with every passing day my anxiety increases wondering if I am making wise decisions with my life: Am I happy with my career direction? Should I continue to improve on my education? Should I rent or buy? Should I be starting to invest in a retirement fund? Do I need life insurance? When is the right time for marriage? Will I ever have the time for kids?

If only there was a check list of things one must figure out before turning the “serious” and “I have my stuff together” age of thirty. As Carrie Bradshaw said, “twenties are for mistakes and thirties are to pay for them.”

Hello Darlings,

The other day, my favorite mailman brought my copy of J.Crew's August 2012 catalog also known as the Style Guide. The styling was perfection and I absolutely loved all the pretty preppy looks! It is adorable...trust me :)

Hello Darlings,

Without reading too much into this, or thinking there is a developing trend with two relationship articles in a row, but I thought to follow up yesterday's article — Stop, Before Kissing That Boy — with an article on when should you know that your relationship is over. I put my research skills to a good use and was astonished to learn that 48% of marriages end up in divorce .

My research also showed additional unpleasant facts including:

• Almost 75% of Canadian divorces are being initiated by women.

• One year after separation or divorce, 50% of children of divorced or separated families never see their fathers again.

• First marriages have about a 50% chance of ending in divorce , that risk becomes greater with each successive marriage (about 72% for second, and about 85% for third marriages).

Hello Darlings,

Bella and Edward's love-story might have had a fairy-tale ending, but Kristen and Robert's story is not so lucky! On July 17, Kristen Stewart was photographed canoodling with her Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders who is married with two kids. Following the story which was first reported by Us Weekly, Kristen released an apology to Rob:

“I’m deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I’ve caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I’m so sorry.”

She is not the first nor the last to spark the cheating scandal. Think back to those entertaining days of Tiger Woods and his one too many affairs and then of course, the presidential drama with President Clinton and Monica Lewinsky. Monica went down in the history books "as an American woman whom United States President Bill Clinton admitted to have an improper relationship with while she worked at the White House" and Tiger as simply scum. Despite the humiliation and wrongdoing, affairs continue to happen and more often end with terrible result. So, it makes one wonder: Why Do People Cheat?
