About Us

Our website was built on the assumption that relationships are an important part of life, and that study and scientific facts may help us better understand them. We also believe that this knowledge is most useful when it is provided in a fun and engaging way.


We compile research findings from a variety of domains, including psychology, family studies, sociology, communication, evolutionary biology, and others, and present them in an easy-to-understand fashion. We are real professionals in the field of relationship science who are also active researchers and lecturers. We publish in peer-reviewed scientific journals and are frequently asked to share our knowledge by the media and popular press.


The site's contributors are relationship experts. Every essay written by one of our writers is based on peer-reviewed research, and we will cite our sources and provide full references at the end of the piece.
