While Blake Lively may be newlyweds with Ryan Reynolds, there’s another Ryan who has an eye out for her. Olympic gold medalist Ryan Lochte admitted to People that the Gossip Girl star “makes my toes curl”. Though the two have not officially met yet, Lochte admits that he would break his diet just for her since Lively has a weakness for homemade goods. Lochte is attracted to women who have a similar style as Lively in the sense that they have a versatile fashion.

It’s Monday morning and your alarm clock goes off just as it does every week. You still have to shower, pick out an appropriate outfit and, with luck, even squeeze in some breakfast.  But before you find the strength to start your day, you feel a slight tug on your arm. A longing pull from your beau followed by a whisper so soft you can barely make it out makes you want to stay in bed for the rest of your life. “Stay with me,” your partner says. Of course, even the most romantic words often can’t overshadow the piles of work you have waiting for you on your desk. If you’re tired of your daily routine and stressed about missing out, consider these five ways to put your life on hold and keep your partner in bed:

We all laughed at Ben Stiller’s struggle to remain in his fiancé’s father’s “circle of trust” in the hilarious film Meet the Parents, but it’s hard to find the comedy of fighting with your own in-laws. Sure, we get to choose the person we marry, but unfortunately for us, we aren’t able to pick their parents. Not everyone’s father-in-law is a retired CIA agent, but in-laws are almost always tough to deal with. The next time you have to deal with the family of someone you love, try to remember these tips:

It’s good to get creative and thoughtful with the way you and your loved one spend time together.  After all, there’s more to a relationship than dinner and a movie.  So, forget arguing over whether you should see the newest romance flick, or the latest blockbuster action movie. Instead, share your love with others by involving yourself in volunteer work.

A great way to spend your time together is by cuddling up with those who are less fortunate, and the animal shelter is the perfect way to start. Innocent pets that have been abandoned and abused need loving too. Maybe you and your significant other will both fall in love with these furry friends, and decide to adopt one of them.  Regardless,  you can spend time with one another by helping out some lonely animals in need. The shelter is always open to visitors.

If you enjoy spending time in the kitchen, why not share your cooking skills with the less fortunate at a food bank or homeless shelter.  It will make you and your sweetheart think twice about the food we take for granted.  Serving people who are less fortunate will help to put a smile on their face.

Life, as in dating, should be about the simple things. If you don’t have time to volunteer right now, grab your calendar and do some planning.  All you need to do is find a little time to help those around you.

Have some good volunteer experiences? Let us know in the comments below.

Question from Lauren A.: I was dating a guy for a month when he broke up with me via text. I thought this was extremely impersonal and I deserved at least a phone call, but my guy friends said that because we were only dating for a short length of time, breaking up with a text message is fine. What are your thoughts? Is there a certain length of time you have to be dating someone to receive a more intimate break-up?
