We have enormous appetites for both food and love, and yet there's junk food and also junk love.

I think most people know when they're in a toxic relationship - it requires an enormous amount of effort to keep it going, and you don't get what you want from it.
Contraception is a couple's issue.
I don't like the word 'juggling' or 'work-life balance.' You prioritize.
Print is not dead.
Get out there and meet people, and that will lead to meeting other people. Look around; see if there's anyone hiding in plain sight. There may be friends that become more than friends.
It's really important to be surrounded by people who are going to lift you up.
Love and food are very similar in many ways. We can't survive without them, and they bring us great joy, and just as there is junk food, and you can become obese, there's also junk love.
Make a list of all the people in your life, and rate them in terms of energy in, energy out. Is there anyone in your life right now who is blocking your love quest?
Dating apps are brilliant for expanding your actual social network, which leads you to meet other people.
I was a dogged reporter.
I don't like the tropes, particularly in my industry, that the senior women are mean to the junior staff.
I have green eyes, which are actually quite difficult to find makeup for.
I was a member of the young liberals, the young conservatives, and young Labour, according to who gave the best parties.
I was 36 when I had my first son, Thomas, and 39 when I had Hugo, my second.
We can't pretend that a Facebook friend is the same as a real friend you've shared times with together, both good times and difficult times.
I have a real challenge of finding dog-walking shoes.
The transition of a desk job, having to be in the office at the same time every day, I found super hard.
I clean out the cat tray like everyone else.
You need a nutritional love diet. Don't put the junk stuff in your body - it's not going to do you any good.
I started at 'The Daily Telegraph' as a daily news reporter. I moved then to 'The Guardian,' and then I moved to New York as the correspondent for 'The Guardian,' moved to 'The Times of London.' And really, it was the best job you could imagine. You could cover any story you wanted in America.
One of the things about being online is it's hard to forget people, so it's very easy to stalk an ex, it's very easy to follow what people are doing. It's almost impossible to forget them.
I am deeply unsentimental.
I started in journalism: my first magazine, I developed when I was 10. I sent it round to the neighbors. I also sent it to the Queen of England.
I was precocious, so I began reading 'Cosmo' when I was 12.
I have never had an unsupportive female boss. I've had several female bosses. They've all been super supportive.
I grew up in the north of England - 200 miles north of London, in a relatively unsophisticated place. And I craved magazines as a way of finding out about the future, about the life that I wanted.
I can't spend any time cultivating celebrity.
As I've gotten older, I've become much more effective at seeking and accepting help and bringing other people into the discussion. You start to understand that you can't control or fix everything on your own.
'Marie Claire' is one of those magazines that doesn't feel as well known as it should be.
I have a lot of tea in the morning. I always have toast and peanut butter.
When I was growing up as a child, a magazine, to me, was like a finger beckoning me to the future.
What, for me, was exciting about America was just this extraordinary, complex, difficult, fascinating country, and Britain can feel very small. London, in particular, feels small because everything happens there, so you have publishing, politics, you have finance; everything in Britain happens in London.
You don't have to be in love all the time, but you need to be surrounded by people you have a genuine connection with.
It is extremely frustrating if you are in your 20s and you want to embark on having a family and you're struggling to meet people.
Once I got to the U.S., and I realized we weren't going to go back to Britain, I was ready to commit to starting a bigger life here.
I like to use exercise classes as a way of understanding what people are doing. I'm promiscuous in terms of exercise. You see what people are wearing. You see what people are responding to. You see what the music is they're listening to. An exercise class is social anthropology: what clothes people are wearing, what are the new sneakers.
I am who I am.
I can't stress this enough: The single thing that will guarantee a happy, fulfilled, and calmer life is the quality of your human relationships, especially the people you love and who love you back.
Sometimes the hardest decision is to say no to something, and I think when you're less confident or when you're younger, you say yes to everything, and as you get older, you realise you don't need to.
When you have children is the most important choice affecting your life.
In the same way you pick idly at chips, promising this is literally your last one, you may be in a relationship that you know isn't going anywhere, but you're hungry for love, and it feels less frightening than nothing.
Snapchat is a really intimate medium.
It might be that you never want to get married, or it might be that you really, really do. Either is fine. What's not fine is not to be honest about what you want.
You can't back-engineer a brand.
Junk love are relationships in which you know you're not getting the emotional nutrition that you need. You're probably wasting emotional calories on people who aren't giving you enough back.
Growing up, 'Cosmo' was my lifeline to the world. A world that I wanted to be in but couldn't get to yet.
I probably don't conform to most people's idea of a fashion editor.
People avoid the telephone because it's easier to text. Calls can be awkward - you interrupt each other; you can't quite hear someone. But the advantage is you get to hear someone else's voice. You find out whether or not you can have a fluid conversation or if it's stilted and peculiar.
I wish I could be as commanding as Meryl Streep.
