About the Editorial Team
The Lainie editorial team writes practical relationship and dating advice grounded in psychology research and real-world experience. Our content draws on established frameworks — attachment theory (Bowlby, Ainsworth), communication research (Gottman Institute), and current relationship science — translated into guidance that is actually useful for everyday situations.
We are not therapists or licensed counselors. Our content is informational and educational. For clinical support, we recommend working with a licensed mental health professional.

Our Standards
- We cite named research when making claims about human behavior — not vague "studies show" language.
- We distinguish advice from therapy. Our role is to inform and support. Clinical care belongs with a licensed professional.
- We update articles when new research or reader feedback warrants a change. Updated articles reflect a revised
dateModified. - We do not promote unhealthy dynamics. If a pattern we describe is harmful, we say so clearly.
