Jess shares strategies for improving your relationship through simple gratitude practices that take less than 30 seconds per day.

In the past, in my personal life, I have had relationships with both men and women. Having experienced intimacy with both "sides," I have a keen understanding of the differences between what heterosexual couples and same-sex couples can do and experience in the privacy of their bedroom. My inspiration in designing and developing The Semenette® was to afford same-sex couples the opportunity to mimic the...

This week, they discuss the rules of sex and relationships for those living with roommates. Some of Jess' top tips include:

1. Keep the noise to a minimum. This means that moans, groans and dirty talk should be kept to a reasonable level. Depending on the size of your place and the location of your bed, you may not be able to muffle every little sound, but putting your face in the pillow, playing music and/or investing in a good quality gag should ensure that your roomies aren't privy to your every fantasy.

2. Talk about nudity rules. If your name is on a lease, you have a say in the rules of your household. I love nudity, but not everyone does, so keep your lover(s) informed of the nudity rules before they wander into the hallway in their birthday suit.

3. Don't expect to have many in-house date nights with a lover if their name isn't on the lease....

According to recent research regarding online dating, your profile pic is not the most important element of your online bio. A review of 4000 studies suggests that you might want to put a little more effort into your screen name, as it is just as important as the photo itself. If you're looking to craft an attractive screen name, consider these findings based on a review of 4000 studies:

• Avoid using names that include words that might have negative associations like "little" or "bug".
• Consider the gender of the person you're trying to attract. Men tend to be drawn to names that imply physical attractiveness (e.g. cute) and women are drawn to names that suggest intelligence.
• When crafting your headline message, keep it brief and avoid complex language. Readers are more likely to be drawn to words that are easy to remember and pronounce.
