Blake Shelton & Gwen Stefani – Unexpected Love

Blake Shelton & Gwen Stefani – Unexpected Love

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stafani

Country star Blake Shelton revealed that his current love, Gwen Stefani, was “the last person” he expected to have his back after his divorce from Miranda Lambert. They’ve only been together for six months but already he’s crazy about her! This is a great example of a couple finding love when they least expect it. Sometimes when you aren’t actively looking for it to happen is exactly when love may find you.

When you are getting over a betrayal or heartbreak, it is hard to imagine yourself in another relationship. At that point the last thing you want to do is take a chance and risk being wounded again by someone else. But if you can trust yourself in turning to someone who is supportive and there for you, not only can you start anew, but it’s even possible that a new romance could blossom.

It can be difficult to talk about what you’ve been through and share your pain with a friend. A lot of times people want to shut down, and are not always comfortable reaching out and asking for support. They might feel embarrassed, humiliated or unsure about trusting that the friend won’t gossip about their story and private thoughts with someone else. However, you may find that in expressing your situation to a friend and giving them the chance to offer empathy, you might begin to feel understood in a way that makes all the difference in the world.

The tendency is to shut down when you’ve been hurt, but letting yourself remain open can become the first step in the process of healing. They’re able to see the best in you and help bring out that side of you, so that you can move forward feeling stronger and better about yourself. This is a key element of falling in love, which is being made to feel valued, terrific about yourself, desired, and, especially on the heels of losing all that when you are dealing with a break up, it can be an elixir of the heart. In fact, Blake was quoted as saying Gwen saved his life. There is no underestimating companionship..it can feel lifesaving.

While you may have only seen this person in one light, strictly platonic, that can shift as your circumstances and interactions with each other change. If that does happen, it can be a bonding experience and bring you together in a way that feels like a gain, where before you felt only lost and alone. With this in mind it can be positive to share your emotional pain with someone, rather than remaining closed off and keeping the heartache to yourself. It’s natural to feel vulnerable if you suddenly find yourself being drawn to this person after everything you’ve been through, but it is worth it to let the relationship go forward.

Blake and Gwen recently sang a duet together on The Voice called, “Go Ahead and Break My Heart.” Blake explained that they chose that title and the words to go with it because they are smart enough to know at this point that all relationships will have ups and downs. So why not just put it out there? They’ve been through it before, and they know there will be good and bad ahead, but right now they are so happy they found each other and they will deal with what’s ahead.

While Blake and Gwen are singing about it, it is equally beneficial to talk about it. Though it can feel scary, being involved in this relationship, facing your fears and acknowledging your insecurities can actually make you stronger. While you want to protect yourself and might typically look to keeping these feelings private, if you can instead be honest and genuine with someone you feel has your back, who knows where it might lead you, maybe even to a new love.

Relationship Advice with Dr Jane Greer – Can You Stay Friends With an Ex

Relationship Advice with Dr Jane Greer – Can You Stay Friends With an Ex

Relationship Break Up

 

There are several things to consider when trying to decide if it is a good idea to be your former partner’s pal.  The first is to think about how your relationship ended and if there are any lingering issues. If there is still a lot of anger and resentment between you, and you continue to be at odds sorting out the logistics of your new lives and what that means, then you might not be ready to be friends yet. In other words, if you are still trying to iron out the difficult details of dealing with kids, sorting through your things, sharing friends, and deciding how to deal with family events, the likelihood that these complications will raise your already brewing frustration level is pretty high.

If the “we” world that was dismantled is still requiring a lot of directions and maps to navigate through, and the journey hasn’t been smooth or easy, it is probably too soon. With that in mind, trying to stay close at this time might only serve to fuel the negative energy and keep the anger going.

When is it Time for Celebrity Couples to Seek Help

Celebrity Portrait

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s marriage has been reinvigorated by ‘couples’ counseling. Although things are on the mend now, there was trouble in paradise less than a year after they tied the knot.

Not only did Brad see ex Jennifer Aniston alone, but he also didn’t accompany Angelina to the Critics’ Choice Awards this January. After months of fighting, they decided to seek out the help of a therapist. Now they plan to always keep counseling in their lives, because they say it has transformed their marriage and helped them fall in love with each other again.

They are not alone, Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden have enlisted some outside support after just five months of marriage, as they work to put a strong foundation underneath them.

This proves that it is never too early to get help…

Dr Jane Greer on Jennie Garth & Can You “Win” the Breakup

Jennie Garth

It’s been less than two years since actors Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli finalized their divorce, but already both are engaged to new partners. After Peter announced his engagement on March 16, Jennie’s engagement to her new boyfriend of only a few months was confirmed last week.

The question is, is this a coincidence or a “battle of the exes”? Sometimes one person will try to “win” their breakup by not being the one left alone while their ex has found new love…

Dr Jane Greer on Lady Gaga & Does Her Ring Raise The Bar?

Dr Jane Greer on Lady Gaga & Does Her Ring Raise The Bar?

He gave me his heart on Valentine’s Day, and I said YES!

A photo posted by @ladygaga on

Singer and superstar Lady Gaga got engaged to her longtime boyfriend Taylor Kinney on Valentine’s Day weekend. He gave her a ‘one of a kind’ huge heart-shaped engagement ring that included a T and S for their initials. We could all see it sparkling on her finger when she sang at The Academy Awards on Sunday. It harkens back to young love when everyone would write their initials in a heart, and is both romantic and lavish.

So what does the magnitude of her engagement ring mean for everyone else..her followers and fans? Does it raise the bar, and possibly make non-celebrity couples who are now getting engaged feel that they have to do something extraordinary and unique in order to make their partner feel special?
