We’ve all been there and while there are advantages to living with male housemates, there are negatives too. Here are just some of the many things you will come to realise when you start to live with a boy:

Different definitions of clean
While we’re not queens of cleanliness ourselves, we wonder have some of our male friends ever picked up a scrubbing brush. Sometimes you have to lay down the law when it comes to keeping the place clean, without going too crazy at the same time.

Scared of insects
Contrary to popular belief, it is not always the guy who rescues the girl from the scary insects.

Football
Don’t even mention the world cup! Don’t be too surprised if your television is automatically overtaken by whatever sporting event is going on at the time.

Random socks everywhere
From the kitchen to the living room and even the side of the sofa, socks will appear anywhere.

Cooking
Sometimes it’s just better to order a group takeout instead of taking turns when it comes to meals.

We want to support our friends and their new found loves, but there are some guys that our girls will inevitable go out with. Here are just some of the gems that you may come across:

First love
We never forget our first loves and for our friends, it can be no exception. While he’s become a brother to you this stage, you secretly think that your friend maybe should have had her wild days just a bit more, before settling down.

College boyfriend
You barely know the guy but he makes her happy, so that’s all you want, even if they met each other at the back of a lecture hall.

Back-up guy
Harsh but true. There is always one guy your friend goes back to, especially when they shouldn’t.

The perfect guy
He’s annoyingly perfect that you kept help but be jealous of your friend’s new relationship, but deep down inside you’re happy for her, you are!

He’s not good for her guy
Too many encounters with this type, and we know it won’t end well no matter how many times we tell our friends this. In cases like these, all you can do is be there for her and hope that he improves with time.

Star Trek star, Zoe Saldana has opened up about married life, as well as some of the lessons she’s learnt from love in the latest issue of Marie Claire.

Zoe who secretly married her partner Marco Perego in England last year said the decision made perfect sense to her.

"I don't do the ABCs. I do what my heart says, what my heart feels. So from the moment I met my husband, we were together. We knew."

The 36-year-old then went on to share some lessons that she’s learnt from past relationships, and says when it comes to love, you should never settle.

“Not to settle. If you’re not happy with a person, leave. And wait until you find that one person who makes you feel good about yourself every single day and is not expecting you to change, but to grow.”

Without naming names, Zoe reveals for good reasons why she doesn’t keep in touch with her exes!

“I have been in relationships where a man has disrespected me, and I don’t need to be friends with that man anymore. I don’t want to be the one going, ‘I’m cool, because I’m friends with all my exes.’ There’s a reason why you’re called an ex. I crossed you off my list. Moving on. You cross a line, you need to know that you’re going to walk this earth knowing that there’s an individual who has no respect for you.”

Makes sense to us, we think Zoe should become our relationship guru from now on!

They may be branded as ‘nerds’, but apparently people who read fiction books have better social ability and better abilities of empathy and theory of mind.

Raymond Mar, a psychologist at York University in Canada, and Keith Oatley, a professor of cognitive psychology at the University of Toronto carried out studies in 2006 and 2009.

The idea is that since readers of fiction spend so much time dipping into other peoples’ lives, they’re better able to see the world from someone else’s point of view.

However, don’t just waltz into your local library and grab the first guy you see – you have to make sure it is fiction they’re reading. If he’s hanging out by the non-fiction isle, then it’s not a good sign.

Apparently exposure to non-fiction is “associated with loneliness, and negatively related to social support.” That means they’re socially awkward, which isn’t actually something you should hold against someone, but if you’re looking for someone who will gaze into your eyes and tell you a romantic tale or two, then it’s the fiction fans you’re after.

Wouldn’t it be great if we all just agreed on everything? No more arguments or compromise, but also, no more passion, apparently.

While you may sometimes feel that you and your partner can’t agree on anything, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. They may possess the traits that you’re lacking in, for one, which makes you a great team.

Chemistry is also created when you’re with someone with different characteristics to you – we all know that in physics a positive and a positive won’t have any reaction, but a positive and a negative? Well. Then you get some energy. Sexual energy, in particular.

So the next time you’re pulling your hair out while trying to find a compromise between an action packed holiday and a week on the beach, don’t worry. Just make sure you get somewhere with a comfortable bed!

Getting over an ex is never easy and staying friends with them can be a little harder. Here are five simple rules for staying friends with your ex:

No drunk dialling
Just don’t do it, you will only regret it in the morning. From screaming messages to inappropriate declarations of love at 3am, drunk contact of any form is not a great way to start a friendship.

No sex
Well not sex with your ex anyway. There’s too much emotional involvement there, and it will of course only make things more complicated.

Don’t comment on each other’s partners
Unless you have something nice to say, it’s probably best not to say anything at all.

Honesty
All the best friendships have a strong foundation of honesty and your ex is no exception. So before embarking on the friend route with your old flame, make sure to talk honestly about why you want start a friendship with them. Remember you split up for a reason and if your reasons for a friendship are not genuine, it’s probably best to face that reality head on.

Photographer Carla Richmond Coffing and writer, Hanne Steen have created “Lovers Shirts”, a project which explores the reasons we cling to material things such as our ex’s old t-shirts.

Steen said: “There is something about (ex-lovers’ shirts) – even old and torn, they feel special, different than any other piece of clothing.

“My last boyfriend had a stack of old t-shirts, worn and soft and full of holes that I used to love to wear… When that relationship ended, I somehow neglected to keep any of his shirts, and I missed wearing them, because I missed him – his smell, his arms around me, so I decided to do a project that looked deeper into this phenomenon, as a way of exploring my own feelings of longing and attachment, and ultimately, detachment. I was curious whether or not other people felt the same way.”

Well, we can definitely relate to how Steen felt. Take a look at these beautiful images – further proof that a picture will is worth a thousand words.

A new study has called women “intimate terrorists” and claims that women are usually the most responsible parties for aggression in the majority of heterosexual relationships.

A study from the University of Cumbria questioned over 1,104 young men and women about physical aggression controlling behaviour involving their partners and friends.

Dr. Elizabeth Bates who created the study said that just as many women as men could be classed with abusive behaviour in their relationship.

“This study found that women demonstrated a desire to control their partners and were more likely to use physical aggression than men. This suggests that IPV may not be motivated by patriarchal values and needs to be studied within the context of other forms of aggression, which has potential implications for interventions.”

Dr. Bates said she deliberately focused the studies on late teens and early twenties because statistically they were most likely to be victims of aggression.
