Real Relationship Advice from Real Relationship Experts
The deep topics that you’ll see every Monday
After last week’s insanity of putting on a radio show and campaigning for Mother of All Bloggers, we decided that this week we wanted to get back to the roots of what this blog is all about. This is CoupleDumb. The word dumb is right in the name. So, this week we are going to look at the stupid things that people do to screw up their relationship, their families, their children and themselves.

Read moreHappy Monday everybody! This is a fantastic week and we are already excited. We’ve got so much going on. Aside from writing for our blog 6 days a week, we also have the launch of our first book, ‘Dysaffirmations: Because this kind of stupid takes work!’ The book is a collection of some of our dysaffirmations and includes a Misery Worksheet. We are also awaiting the results of the Mother of all Bloggers contest for which Lee was nominated. And we are holding a contest for subscriptions (Facebook group, Twitter, etc). The person with the most referrals gets a signed book! The winner will be announced on our first radio show on May 7th, National Mom’s Nite Out! With so much to do, who has time for sex?
Read moreGood Morning CoupleDumb readers! We hope your weekend was restful and you are ready for an exciting week. We were all ready to do a week talking about sex and then had to change our plans when Lee was nominated as the Mother of all Bloggers on Momlogic.com. On Wednesday morning, instead of a Celebrity Smackdown, we will have Lee’s post for the contest ‘What’s your Mom Logic?’. So we’re shaking up the week people! We won’t lose the opportunity on using this shake up to point something out; you need to be flexible and defer to the greater good of the relationship if you want to succeed.
Read moreGood Monday Readers! We hope this past weekend, where many celebrate their faith, was filled with love and family. We would like to thank you for the opportunity to share our experiences last week. Having a soapbox like a blog makes it pretty easy to blast every jerk in the universe. Like Spiderman says, ‘With great power there’s great responsibility’. We promise to use this power sparingly unless we really want to hurt somebody. We kid! But it’s nice to dream about it.
Read moreAs we enter Holy Week and the end of Lent, we decided it was time for us to purge as well. We have been writing this blog for a little over two months and enjoying every minute of it. However, those closes to us have asked, on several occasions, when are you going to bust out the good stuff? And by good stuff they are referring to our experiences with the Catholic Church.
Read moreGood Monday Readers! We hope you had a great weekend. It seems we have just had the longest winter on record because being outside seems so weird and foreign to everyone. This must be what Punxsutawney Phil feels like when they pull his furry ass out of his tree every year and hold him up for every asshole who thinks it’s cool to get up at 4:30 am in frigid temperatures to watch a rodent predict the weather. Sorry, some times the references are just for us. You see, we don’t do sun and we live in Miami. We know. We ask ourselves this question all the time. The truth is we are here because 14 years ago we couldn’t afford a house in Los Angeles, our home town. Also, we became parents after the riots. Let’s just say, L.A. didn’t seem all that friendly after watching the glowing skies and seeing people carry sofas out of storefronts on TV.
Read moreBuenos Diaz our faithful readers and Happy Heavy Monday! We hope your weekend was pleasant and you had the opportunity of spending some time outside during the first weekend of Spring. The weather in Miami was interesting; warm, then rain, then cool, then sunny. It was switching up so much it reminded us of the topic of the week. WOMEN!
Read moreWe spend lots of time in this world trying to define and categorize things. In fact, that’s all the Men are from Mars blah blah was about. The reality is that at the core, men and women want the same things in life. We may define and approach them differently, but ultimately we all want to love and be loved. Since we all want to get to the same place, let’s all do this together. But to create a healthy relationship, we should have some idea of how our differences may create some problems. This is all a nice way of saying ‘Occasionally he/she does some really stupid shit and I can’t understand why but I know he/she loves me.’
Read moreOne of our secret pleasures is watching Sober House or Celebrity Rehab. We think that Dr. Drew is a great guy and the nay sayers can suck it. Dr. Pinsky is showing the reality of rehab. Now granted, most rehab facilities aren’t that nice but the drama, process and insight are still very realistic. We can joke all we want to about the over indulgent celebrity and the lack of willpower from the spoiled babies of the world but the reality is addiction is as common as blinking and to deny it is just more symptom of an addiction.
