Unexpected Places to Find True Love Finding love is never easy-- or so it seems when you're single. As many women will admit, the bar scene isn't always an ideal place to meet men and flirting with someone at work is sometimes frowned upon.

So if you're "looking for love in all the wrong places" as the song goes... or just unsure of where to mingle with eligible singles, GalTime's relationship expert Nikki Leigh has a few suggestions that just might help you get on the right path to meeting the man of your dreams.

According to Leigh, it's possible to meet someone just about anywhere... whether it's while shopping at the grocery store or while working out at the gym. But if you're looking for a true partner, "there is a strategy or two that can help you find someone that you're more likely to be attracted to and really interested in," she says, adding, "If you want to meet someone that may be more compatible with you and (who shares) your likes and dislikes, think about meeting

Photo by Bob Charlotte/PR PhotosKatherine Heigl and husband Josh Kelley have adopted a little girl, their rep confirms.

This is the couple's second child. Back in 2009, they adopted daugher Naleigh from South Korea.

Last February, Katherine told Scholastic Parent & Child:

"Josh and I started talking about [adoption] before we were even engaged. My sister Meg is Korean, and my parents adopted her three years before I was born. I wanted my own family to resemble the one I came from, so I always knew I wanted to adopt from Korea."

As for having bioligical children, the actress said it's not out of the question:

"We have talked about having biological children as well, but we decided to adopt first. I just wanted to be a mom. So however we did that, it's fine with me. I'd like to adopt again."

We bet Naleigh is so excited about becoming a big sister!

Developing Young People into Innovators In the past, our country has produced innovators more by accident than by design. Rarely do entrepreneurs or innovators talk about how their schooling or their places of work -- or even their parents -- developed their talents or encouraged their aspirations.

Three of the most innovative entrepreneurs of the last half century -- Edwin Land, the inventor of the Polaroid instant camera; Bill Gates; and Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook -- had to drop out of Harvard to pursue their ideas. Apple's Steve Jobs; Michael Dell of Dell Computer; Larry Ellison, founder of the software giant Oracle; and the inventor Dean Kamen are other famous high-tech college dropouts.

So what would it mean if we were to intentionally develop the entrepreneurial and innovative talents of all young people -- to nurture their initiative, curiosity, imagination, creativity, and collaborative skills, as well as their analytical abilities -- along with essential

Is it chatting or cheating?...These days, conveniences like email, texting and social media have made it easier than ever to connect with others. But for people who are married or are in committed relationships, it also means innocent communication can slip into flirting or emotional cheating-- a betrayal even if there's no physical contact involved.

So where is the line between harmless chatting and harmful cheating? We asked Sheri Meyers Psy.D, liscenced Marriage and Family Therapist and author of "Chatting or Cheating: How to Detect Infidelity, Rebuild Love and Affair-Proof Your Relationship."

GalTime: What is "Emotional Sex?"

Sheri Meyers Psy.D: Emotional sex is an affair of the heart that feels the same as romantic love and can manifest itself in numerous ways-physically, romantically, emotionally, lustfully, verbally, or virtually. Once emotional sex kicks in, fantasy takes over. The brain chemicals activated in emotional sex create the illusion

Happy Mother's Day!This Mother's Day, think outside the gift box! After breakfast in bed, surprise mom with one of these A-list worthy treats, courtesy of my favorite fashioniastas! (Think of the more expensive picks as stylish inspiration!)

JENNY FELDMAN, SENIOR FASHION EDITOR, MYHABIT.COM:

Something to pamper her: Whether it's a gift certificate to that spa she's never tried, or a do-it-herself basket of luxe beauty products that make for a home spa experience, mom deserves a bit of R&R. In addition to products, things like cashmere robes, pretty slippers or a fragrant scented candle also make evergreen gifts.

A new handbag: The bigger, the better. Since mom is always carrying everything and the kitchen sink, give her the gift of a great bag to transport it all. (For a great deal, MyHabit.com's handbag sale launches May 1st.)

The Silent Treatment You asked the wrong question, or made the wrong comment, you said something you weren't supposed to or blurted out something you know but shouldn't. The response you get says it all…silence.

Not the type of laid back silence you experience on a Sunday morning when you are in the kitchen reading the paper and he is lounging on a chair texting or typing away on his lap top. Not the type of silence that says "hey mom, we are connecting right now," as you sit next to each other on the couch watching your favorite cooking or reality fashion show.

No, unfortunately this is the tense taut silence. The kind that screams "Mom, how could you?!" You hesitate to raise your eyes to read the expression of anger or disgust that you are sure your teen is wearing. For a brief moment you may even feel indignation.
