From moving far from home to your taking better control of your health, we've rounded up three accounts from real women about the biggest sacrifice for love they ever made.

Many women are convinced they have a 'type' when dating. But sometimes, a soulmate isn't someone you think you're compatible with at first and you might end up with someone who's not your type.

I hatched a hare-brained plan — spend a week driving across the country with a man I knew only through social media.

When my son died, it was tragic but it taught me liberating lessons.

While we may not think polar opposites attract, science has found that being different on multiple levels may lead to lasting love.

What I learned from interracial dating is that my boyfriend was ashamed of me because I was black.

Women are attracted to a certain type of man and here's what drives women to love.

According to a study conducted at the University of Westminster, strong, muscular men make awful boyfriends.

I met Dan at a bar in London, where I worked for a year after college. I crashed a private birthday party with my roommates, and we honed in on the free food table, where Dan was also stationed.

He and I bonded over American-style sliders and our elicit presences — he didn’t know the birthday boy either — and he bought me three drinks before the night was through.

Dan was shy, gentlemanly even, so although we soon became inseparable — meeting for walks in Kensington Park and pints after work — we danced in that limbo of more-than-friends but haven't-yet-kissed.

There's at least one person out there who writes "professional wingman" in the occupation box on their tax returns each year, and that person is Thomas Edwards, founder and CEO of The Professional Wingman.

The Professional Wingman is a consulting service that offers an array of packages to help shy men and women (but, naturally, 80 percent of the clients are men, he says) approach prospective dates, flirt, charm, and seal the deal for a first date and beyond.
