Guest post: 10 Reasons To Thank Your Bad Boyfriend

by guest author, Regina Barreca, Ph.D.

Dear Readers: My friend Gina Barreca writes hilarious and thought-provoking books and articles. She and I thought you’d like her latest blog posting. She’d love to get your comments on this piece on her blog. I have mentioned a number of Gina’s books in past postings. Just search by “Barreca” in my search box to find them.

That isn’t easy to do.

I decided to help.
