What are the benefits of a double date?

Cupid’s Advice:

Sometimes a double date has more going for it than a one-on-one outing.  Cupid has some ideas as to why that may be:

1. They’re less intimidating: Double dates takes the pressure off.  They reduce the pressure to be entertaining and interesting, because there’s always another couple to pick up the slack.  No awkward silences!

2. They’re fun: Sometimes it great to go out with a group of people and forget you’re even on a date.  Dates are a way to get to know one another, after all, and seeing how your potential significant other acts in a group is a big part of who he or she is as a person.

3. They help form friendships: Going on a double date helps lay down the foundation for future friendships. One-on-one dates are a good time in their own way, but it’s important to have friends as a couple as well.

Reese Witherspoon hit New York City on Sunday for the premiere of her new movie Water For Elephants.  The star was all smiles at her first red carpet appearance since tying the knot with CAA agent Jim Toth at her ranch in Ojai, California in late March.  When asked how married life is, Witherspoon replied, “It feels great!”  The actress recently got back from her honeymoon in Belize, and life is slowly getting back to normal.  Luckily, Witherspoon is able to balance her marriage and her promotional duties just fine, saying that “Everything’s just great!”  Witherspoon has also added more film premieres in order to get closer to her fans, saying, “This is an opportunity to really connect with the fans.  It’s a nice opportunity for me to connect with the people who actually go and see the movies.”

How does married life feel different than the single life?

Cupid’s Advice:

It may seem to you like you’re already married before you actually tie the knot, but there are a few key differences in the life of someone who’s married and someone who’s single.  Cupid has some thoughts:

1. You’re never lonely: Once your married, you have your best friend and partner in life.  You no longer have to fear being single or alone forever.

2. You have someone to share everything with: When you’re married, you have someone to confide in about your secrets, insecurities or even life’s excitements.  You no longer have to keep a wall up because someone is there to listen to and care about you.

3. You have someone to always have fun with: An important part of any marriage is to keep the spark alive, and the best way to do that is to simply have fun.  When you’re married you have someone to go to a concert with or with whom to plan the future.

Following the death of his parents, Jacob Jankowski (Robert Pattinson), a student who is almost finished with his veterinarian degree, jumps on the train that is home to Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth.  Before he knows it,  he’s in charge of the caring for the circus menagerie.  While at his “salvation and living hell,” Jankowski meets Marlena (Reese Witherspoon), who is married to August (Christoph Waltz), described as the charismatic yet demented animal trainer who is unable to train a special elephant, Rosie. Water for Elephants has the elements of popular love stories such as The Notebook and Moulin Rogue, while set in a time period where love is something available to very few.

Cupid’s Advice:

It’s tough to know if you’ve gone too far for love.  Cupid has a few things to keep in check when you’re in pursuit:

1. Patience is a virtue: Although most love movies that depict a love triangle show them ending happily, in real life that’s hardly the case.  If things are truly supposed to be, then you’ll have to wait for the opportune moment.

2. Don’t quit your day job: There’s a fine line between love and obsession, and dropping everything you have for true love is pushing that divide.  It’s one thing to make sacrifices for love and another to abandon your life.

3. Blood runs thicker than water: When in doubt, talk to family or close friends.  Even though they can’t make your decision for you, they can definitely help give you insight for your decision.

How do you have a romantic honeymoon in a short period of time?

Cupid’s Advice:

A good marriage is not about the honeymoon lasting forever; it’s about the honeymoon period lasting forever.  As long as your eyes continue to light up when you see your partner, you’ll always feel like you’re on vacation:

1. Plan a second honeymoon: Vacations are always fun to plan either as a couple or as a family.  If you feel that your honeymoon wasn’t long enough, plan to go on another very soon.

2. Vacation close to home: If you cut down on the travel time, you will have more time to spend on vacation instead of getting to one.

3. Plan ahead: It may not seem romantic to have a honeymoon on a schedule, but it can be a real time saver.
