We all love slang, and using slang to describe romance, until it gets over-killed. What was hot a year or two ago now seems so passe. Uber-uncool. If you’re jumping into the dating scene again, it might help to know a bit of the latest dating slang. Not necessarily to use it successfully, but at least to understand. Of course, there will be some reading these terms, rolling their eyes and saying: duh, that was so yesterday…! But many people in the mainstream are a few years behind the hipsters, and those facing dating again after a break or pause could use some wording up help:

The Ladies:

A bunny boiler: A woman who gets crazed, obsessive and is scary. From Fatal Attraction, the famous scene of the pot on the stove, boiling-?

Bride beating groom

To glomp: Similar to a bunny boiler, but less drastic- a little desperate. Usage is: Is she glomping you? I think she was glomping me.

Guyatus: When a girl or woman takes time off of dating anyone, usually after a bad experience. She’s ‘suffering from guyatus.’

The popularity of Twitter is twinkling some eyes, while tweaking anger in others. If you don’t Twitter, you’re painfully uncool- just take a look at the Twitterati. Twitter can be addictive, fun and give you connections. But can it affect your relationship? The good and bad news for romance: the Twitter singles scene is the new hot spot and already makes claims on success rates. On the other hand, with Twitter there’s a new, faster way to be cheated on by your tweetheart.

Naysayers call it ‘blogging on amphetamines,’ but there are some benefits. Staying in touch with and meeting people seems to rank highest on the list. In other words, you’re never alone nor are you lonely. While a lot of social sites are good for daily contact, Twitter is minute-by-minute. For relationships, it’s a way to spend consistent time with your love when you’re apart. With a new romance, it’s similar to speed dating, but sped up. In business, those that Twitter have an edge on those who don’t. Bloggers report an increase in visits, since the Twitter messages are so short, leaving readers curious for more information.

Are Emotional Leeches Bleeding You Dry?

There are so many terms for ‘bad people’ that influence you in such negative ways. Emotional leeches, psychic vampires, the hystericals and drama queens (a.k.a. social vamps). We all have them in our circumference. Many of us have to deal with them on a daily basis. What a lot of us don’t take into account, however, is how they can affect our moods, personalities and even our health if we give them too much sway. Our guilt plays a gruesome game between our conscience and our own needs- usually with guilt getting a leg up, over and under our skin.
