Self-help techniques help mend heartbreak, tough relationships
Published February 24, 2010
Hello River Falls, Dr. Love is in, and let us get down to business! This week, I have been thinking a lot about the thing that ends relationships – breaking up. Even though Valentine’s Day was 2 weeks ago, I have noticed a definite peak in the number of breakups that occur either on that day or around that week.
What is it about Valentine’s Day that evokes this need in some people to finally have the courage to call it quits? Is it too overwhelming to think of spending such a romantic day with someone you wouldn’t consider that great of a boyfriend/girlfriend? Maybe it is the disappointment one feels after a Valentine’s Day they had hoped for had not become a reality. Either way, it seems like February has unofficially also become the “month of breakups”.
Positive energy goes a long way

Hello River Falls, Love Doctor here, hope the weather hasn’t been too much of a downer. Valentine’s is here, and many would argue that this holiday has become too commercialized, and the expectations of a boyfriend or a husband has become too hyped up that it has started losing touch with what this holiday is really standing for—love.

River Falls, I hope it feels good to be back in school. Last semester I know there were many of you who were avid readers of the fashion column and I indeed loved the questions and positive feedback I received. This semester, however, this column will no longer be writing about fashion and fashion accessories. This semester’s focus will be on relationships (partner, parents, friends, relatives) and relationship advice.
