Couples Who Get Drunk Together, Stay Together, According To A New Study
Drink up, couples of the world — it may save your relationship. People are constantly trying to find new methods and hidden secrets behind the success of a relationship. Is it understanding?

All I could think about was running. Looking across the desk at my boss, Jamie, I listened as he asked the question I’d been fearing for more two months. “WHY DO YOU WANT TO SELL WOMEN’S UNDERWEAR?” He glared at me, and I shifted my weight, trying to figure out what to say. I hadn’t expected this to happen when I walked into his office that morning. As a fitness assistant at my university’s student life center, I’d been on my way to drop off some gym visitation statistics in his mailbox.
