One Love Foundation One Love works to end relationship abuse by educating people about healthy & unhealthy relationships. For more, visit joinonelove.org

One Love’s mission is to end relationship abuse by educating young people about healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors and empowering them to be leaders driving change in their communities. The One Love Foundation was created in 2010 to honor the memory of Yeardley Love, a senior lacrosse player at the University of Virginia who was three weeks shy of her graduation when she was killed by he

r ex- boyfriend. Yeardley lived her life with integrity, gratitude and honesty -- and lots of laughter. She saw the best in everyone, and was always there to give a helping hand. Her leadership on her lacrosse team and at school resonated with her friends and peers. All of the work we do at the One Love Foundation celebrates and honors the positive spirit and kindness that Yeardley personified. We are committed not only to honoring Yeardley’s memory, but also to saving others from suffering the same fate. Our work is rooted in our honest belief that relationship violence is an epidemic that can be stopped when young adults are educated and empowered to affect change in their communities.

follows Bear, a young man who makes a supernatural wish for his longtime crush to fall in love with him. But when that wish comes true, affection quickly spirals into possessiveness, control, and fear—turning what seemed like a dream into a nightmare. While the story is fictional, it raises real questions about consent, boundaries, autonomy, and what love is not.

📺 Reality TV isn't always real—but the conversations it sparks about relationships certainly can be.

The Ultimatum follows couples at a crossroads: one partner is ready for marriage, while the other isn't. They agree to separate, date other people, and then decide whether to recommit, move on, or start a new relationship. After the season ends, the reunion brings everyone back together to reflect on what happened, share updates on their relationships, and revisit some of the biggest conflicts and unresolved conversations.

🫶 Swipe through for 7 relationship takeaways inspired by The Ultimatum reunion—from recognizing unhealthy communication patterns to understanding what healthy love should actually feel like.

Most people think verbal abuse is obvious, but it often starts much more subtly: a sarcastic comment, a "joke" that stings, or a conversation that somehow leaves you apologizing when you didn't do anything wrong. Over time, these moments can become patterns that chip away at your confidence and isolate you.

👉 Swipe through to learn a few signs to watch for.

If any of these behaviors feel familiar, you're not overreacting. Learning to recognize unhealthy communication is the first step toward building healthier relationships. Check out One Love's 10 Signs of an Unhealthy Relationship at joinonelove.org 💙

Today, on July 17th, Yeardley Love would have turned 39.

She isn't celebrating this birthday because in 2010, she was murdered by her ex-boyfriend—a case of relationship violence that could have been prevented if he, Yeardley, and the people around her had recognized the warning signs of an unhealthy relationship in time.

Forever 22, Yeardley was joyful, talented, funny, and full of life. One Love exists because her mother, Sharon, refused to let Yeardley's death be the end of the story—and because every young person deserves to learn the difference between healthy and unhealthy love before it is too late.

This year, we're asking you to become part of Club 17: give $17 a month, in her honor, for as long as you're able.

This is how we say happy birthday to Yeardley, by making sure her story keeps protecting others. 💙🪽

The manosphere isn't just showing up in podcasts or viral clips—it can shape the way we think about relationships, gender, and power.

In our latest 10 Signs in Pop Culture live training, we unpacked what the manosphere is, why it's gaining traction, and how some of its messages can normalize unhealthy relationship behaviors.

A few key takeaways:
🫶 Healthy relationships are built on respect, honesty, trust, equality, and open communication—not control, dominance, or rigid gender roles.
📱 Algorithms can create echo chambers. Curiosity and critical thinking are some of our best tools.
🔍 If a creator's advice encourages isolation, disrespect, manipulation, or power over a partner, it's worth taking a closer look.

The more we understand the media we consume, the better equipped we are to build healthy relationships—online and offline.
