There’s no shortage of publicity following the Kardashians—and Kris Jenner is happy to keep it that way. But few trends have become as notorious as the rumored ‘Kardashian Kurse’, which is alleged to follow athletes who date one of the siblings and subsequently post the worst numbers of their careers.
With over a dozen NBA stars alone on the list of paramours for the Kardashians, no sporting sector is as at-risk of a pop culture curse as basketball. Even so, not every relationship has led to disastrous results for athletes who mingle with the dynastic family.
With players like James Harden and Blake Griffin both having spent ample time with Khloe and Kendall respectively, it’s clear there’s an emphasis on success. Both players are now on the Brooklyn Nets’ roster, where they’re joined by Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant.
Though Griffin had a few slow years in Detroit and Harden failed to bring Houston an NBA championship title, the future is bright at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. And with sports betting expanding to more and more US states, fans can take advantage of Illinois free bets and similar bonus offers when they’re looking to back teams like the Nets.
Though there’s no word if the Kardashians are willing to wager on their exes’ performances, we certainly hope Khloe isn’t betting too much on husband Tristan Thompson.
Here are the ten most impressive NBA boyfriends who dated a Kardashian, ranked from best performance on the court to worst. Spoiler alert: Khloe’s got the eye for talent.

Keeping a relationship strong and healthy is very difficult. When you add a drug or alcohol addiction to the mix, it can increase the amount of difficulty two people face when trying to stay together. If both people involved in a relationship are addicted to drugs or alcohol, entering a facility like Couples Rehab is important. In these facilities, you can focus on getting sober and introducing healthy habits into your relationship together.
You will find that as you start your sobriety journey the tolerance you have for fighting and stress will diminish quite a bit. A toxic relationship will only make your journey more difficult and affect your mental health at this crucial time.
This is why you need to work on strengthening your relationship during the addiction recovery process. Here are some things you can do to make this goal a reality.

Dealing with an illness or injury is stressful and overwhelming, and that is even more true during a global pandemic. When it happens, family members and friends rally around the person who is sick, and the focus is on them as they deal with doctors, getting a diagnosis, managing symptoms, and so much more. While that is happening, their partner often becomes a hands-on caregiver, arranging appointments, transportation, in-home care, and dealing with all sorts of other logistics. Their strength and stamina can be instrumental in helping their loved one get through the difficult time. Katharine Heigl, the star of Firefly Lane, recently revealed her husband Josh Kelley helped her get through a health crisis. “First trip since the start of the pandemic is back to L.A. to deal with a herniated disk in my neck,” Heigl captioned with an Instagram video of Kelley singing along with the coffee maker in their hotel room. “Thank God for @joshbkelley for not only coming with me to hold my hand but for providing me with some very much needed comedic relief!” And while caring for the person who is unwell is so important, the thing that can fall through the cracks is the impact all of this has on the partner who has stepped into that helping role. Illness can hit hard, not just for the one who is sick but also for the one who is going through it with them. Since they don’t want to be a burden and possibly add more stress to their loved one who is healing, they may be reluctant to voice their worry and unhappiness, as well as the strain they are experiencing, and may even think they shouldn’t.
If you find yourself in this position, what can you do to make sure you are getting what you need so you don’t burn out and can continue to be there for the person who relies on you?

There is no question that the announcement of a baby brother or sister is exciting. It can be a wonderful time when you are expanding your family and planning to welcome your next child into your home. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently told the world that they are thrilled to be expecting baby number two who will join big brother Archie. And while everyone rightfully expects this time to be joyful, it can also be stressful and harder than you might think to navigate. With the…Arrival of your newest addition, for the child who is already there it actually can be a…Rival. They may worry about what it will be like to have to share their parents’ attention and may fear that they will stop being the center of their parents’ world. And while the prospective parents may view it as a gain, the child can see it as a loss. So how can you make the experience less fraught and more positive?
There are certain things to keep in mind which will help make the homecoming of your new family member as smooth as it can be.
Everyone likes to think of themselves as an upstanding person, one who would never break a vow or betray someone they love. Each individual who has ever been in my office to deal with infidelity has always prefaced it by saying, “I’m a good person, but…” How does that but come about in the face of the expectation that you will be honest and faithful to the person you have committed to? In other words, what is it that puts you on the path from faithful to unfaithful? Recently it was revealed that this may have played a part in the break-up of Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis. It has been reported that Wilde was involved with Harry Styles before she and Jason split after spending nine years together and having two children. This raises the question of how someone, in many cases even the best-intentioned person, ends up actually having or flirting with the idea of having an affair?
The pandemic has made this even more prevalent as people are connecting through texting, sexting, and video chats. You might think you are innocently talking to an ex-girlfriend or co-worker across the country, but if you are sharing intimate thoughts and feelings you could be easing your way toward an emotional virtual tryst. So, what are the signs that you may be at risk of heading that way, online or in person?
On the morning of their wedding, the bride and groom are typically expected to exchange gifts. Yet while this is tradition, there are no rules when it comes to the type of gift or how much you should spend.
The gift exchange usually takes place before the ceremony, with many couples choosing to ask their best man or maid of honor to deliver the gifts while everyone is getting ready. This window of opportunity allows the bride and groom to gift one another with, for example, an item of clothing they may have to wear or a small bottle of alcohol to enjoy so that they can reduce their nerves.
Not sure what to gift your husband-to-be on the big day? Here’s a list of exceptional gift ideas your fiancé is sure to love.

Everybody has a unique perception of life and success. The definition of success is more than what you read in books and other content resources.

In this relationship advice, here are the most practical strategies and tips that will make your life and relationships more successful and rewarding, crafted by professional statistics homework helper.
In the last few months, we’ve seen countless celebrity couples break up in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Being stuck at home with your significant other has put a strain on many relationships, not just famous couples. With several states reporting a rise in new COVID-19 cases, we may be spending much more time at home again. If you’re worried about how more time in lockdown may impact your relationship, Cupid has some dating advice for you.
We recently interviewed relationship expert and dating coach Lee Wilson to get his perspective on how to keep your relationship healthy during the stress of lockdown. Wilson has 20 years of relationship-recovery experience, focusing on reuniting couples after separation. He also gave a TED Talk and has lectured at several colleges, including Pepperdine University.
In our interview with dating expert Lee Wilson, he revealed his relationship advice for getting through lockdown with your relationship intact.
Breaking up is hard in itself. You have to find a way to move from the “we” back to the “me,” disentangle your lives and heal enough to look to the future. But what happens when the end of a relationship is charged with unrelenting and unresolved anger, and rather than bowing out gracefully and moving on your ex instead allows that anger to fuel bad behavior which can damage your reputation? This includes saying terrible things about you and can happen in different ways, including revealing personal information, distorting the truth, gossiping about a private mistake that was made when you were together or even by spreading rumors. Sometimes the information begins with the ex, and sometimes the ex simply serves to fuel the negative information. For example, celebrity exes Matthew Morrison and Lea Michele were in this situation when Morrison recently addressed reports of Michele’s diva actions while working on the show Glee. He said, “Yeah, going back to what I was saying, you know, you want to be a good, pleasant person to be around.” He did not appear to have her back.
So, how do you deal with a vindictive ex who is out for revenge? How can you handle a negative campaign against you, especially from someone you used to care about? Check out Dr. Greer’s relationship advice.
Living with your partner is a big step in your relationship that brings new issues to tackle together. Finances may not be the first thing on your mind when moving in together, but it can cause some serious rifts in your relationship. Both of you are responsible for contributing to your new household, but it can be hard to talk about finances with your partner for the first time. It’s even harder if you’re struggling with money, especially if one of you is being reckless with your spending.
If you’re unsure how to tell if you and your partner are living beyond your means, Cupid has some relationship advice for you:
In this traumatic and unprecedented time of the global pandemic, we are surrounded by so much loss of life. In the United States alone many more than 90,000 people have died, and that number grows every day. With that in mind, it may seem that the loss of a pet pales in comparison to the death of a human loved one, and therefore people think they don’t have a right to experience or express their heartbreak. But for many, pets are among their most loved ones, and saying goodbye can be devastating, even, or more so, during this time of isolation and widespread sadness. Sports couple Hope Solo and her husband Jerramy Stevens recently talked about the loss of their dog, Conan, after he was tragically shot. Solo posted about it on social media, saying, “We’re broken-hearted to share that Conan passed away from blood loss last night. He fought up until the very end. We’re crushed. Just a dog running through the woods, trying to make his way home.”
In the same way people wonder if it’s alright to find things funny during these incredibly difficult times, many wonder if they can truly mourn the death of their beloved pet without feeling guilty. In this relationship advice, is it okay to grieve for an animal when so many people are suffering?

Maintaining happiness and peace with your romantic partner is an age-old quest. And with the pandemic keeping everyone at home together literally all the time, that goal is now both more important than ever, and, because of the intense proximity couples are sharing, more difficult than ever, too. The frustration people are feeling may come out in unexpected and snarky ways, which can lead to hurt feelings and fights. Take celebrity couple Elon Musk and Grimes who welcomed their son, X Æ A-12 Musk, earlier this month. When Grimes tried to explain the baby’s name to fans, she mistakenly transposed two numbers and Elon corrected her publicly. She came back on the defensive, saying, “I am recovering from surgery and barely alive so may my typos b forgiven but, da–it. That was meant to be profound.” She handled it with grace, basically asking Elon and everyone else to consider her situation and cut her some slack. The bottom line is that nobody likes to be corrected or told they were wrong or could have done something in a better way, and it inevitably leads to arguments.
So, what can you do when your partner appears to be hot-headed and calls you out? And what can you do to avoid it in the first place? Check out Dr. Greer’s relationship advice.

There is no question that people believe having things in common can lead to a strong marriage. But what if those shared interests fade for one or both partners, or you don’t really like that many of the same things in the first place? Can you still build a strong foundation and share a lasting relationship?
According to actor Bill Pullman, the secret to a happy marriage is “putting our hands in the dirt; it’s a parallel play of digging and planting.” In other words, he and his wife can do their own activity while being together. “It’s helped to keep in tune with each other,” he said.
Relationship Advice: For Bill Pullman and his wife, a successful marriage seems to be about embracing common ground. The question is, if you don’t have that, how can you maintain a supportive connection?
So much planning goes into a wedding, from the venue, to the guest list, to the flowers and food, and that’s after you go through what can be the long process of setting the date! It might seem, as you move closer to the big day, that becoming a married couple is the end goal, and that is where all the work stops. But in reality, that is where it all begins as you start your life together as spouses. So much goes into making the decision to take that next step from either serious dating or living together, and the big question is – does anything change on the other side as far as your own feelings go, or your feelings toward your new husband or wife? Celebrity couple Erin Foster and Simon Tikhman recently got married, and according to Foster, “It feels really nice and it feels safe and cozy that I have a husband. Like I have a person keeping me safe from the world, you know?” Many people live together and never get married, and others live together for a long time before even thinking about tying the knot.
So what, if anything, changes with marriage? How important is being married? Check out Dr. Greer’s relationship advice.

There are many different stages of pregnancy that people go through, from deciding when to have a baby to beginning to try to conceive to either becoming pregnant or not and, in that case, having to consider other options such as fertility treatments, surrogacy, and adoption. One big question that is often not addressed until it begins to happen is: when do you bring other people into the equation? Do you share what’s going on right from the beginning of the journey with family and friends, or do you wait until the baby is well on his or her way? Or, like Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden did recently, do you keep the entire pregnancy under wraps until the baby is born?
The celebrity couple, who began dating in May 2014, has always kept the details about their relationship quiet. Even so, it was a surprise when the two recently announced the birth of their daughter, adding the caveat that they will not be releasing any photos or additional details because they want to protect the baby’s privacy. In order to keep such a big secret, Cameron and Benji must have agreed to it together.
How can you decide when the time is right to tell other people about your pregnancy, making sure the information isn’t leaked before you’re ready? Check out this relationship advice.
