3 Apps To Spice Up Your Love Life Aesha Adams-Roberts These days, it seems there's an app for everything! I've got apps for meal planning, making to-do lists & keeping my kids busy, to name a few. I've recently discovered that there are apps to spice up your love life! Whether you're trying to find the love of your life, you feel stuck in a date night rut, or you need fun ways to stay connected to your spouse in the midst of a busy life, these 3 apps may be your solution. Think of them as a date night in your pocket! 1) At First Sight Too busy to find love? Jaded by online dating? There's an app for that! Many popular online dating sites have developed apps that help you check in on your profile on-the-go. Those are great, but there are some hot, new apps that take online dating to another level. I spent some time exploring an app called At First Sight. It was developed by Chris Harrison, the creator of The Bachelor reality TV show.

(By the way, did you know the original Frog-Prince tale by the Grimm brothers doesn't involve kissing at all? The princess breaks the curse throws the frog against the wall in frustration. How's that for a romantic fairy tale?!) I've kissed a few frogs in my dating life and even prayed they'd change. I kept on kissing them even though they eventually TOLD me they were frogs and would always be frogs. "I'm sorry I can't be the man you need me to be," one said. And another time, he said, "Sometimes, I feel like I don't ever want to get married. Or have any more kids." That's a frog who was content in the swamp, hopping from lillypad to lilypad, when I was ready to commit and build a life with my prince. After some heartbreak, I told myself the truth and decided not to kiss him any more. Guys do it too. In their search for the woman of their dreams, many men take on a Knight in Shining Armor role and are attracting to the Damsel in Distress. I've coached some of these Hero wannabee's.
