Whether you have been online bisexual dating website for some time or perhaps you’re re-entering the matchmaking world after agony, you shouldn’t fear dating after 50. Everything’ve lost to dad energy you have gained in knowledge and knowledge. Here are some online dating methods for the over-50 audience.
Dating inside Fifties: absolutely nothing has actually Changed
Dating might seem some scarier now than it did once you happened to be within 20s, in different ways nothing has evolved. Dating continues to be about observing some one, finding the time to see if you connect spiritually, mentally, intellectually and actually. Communication stays important. From early, end up being intentional about showing genuine interest in your partner and getting knowing the other person as transparently as you are able to.
Nearly all of that age-old advice is as pertinent as ever: Be your self, laugh, keep an unbarred brain, and become truthful. Know yourself â have the ability to determine your own strengths and weaknesses â and know what you’re looking for in a relationship.
Every thing listed above thought about, some things have altered. Internet dating is currently typical, with folks observing each other internet based â or at least assessment one another â before that very first date. Your career is significantly more along than it had been years before; financial protection can be good results to online dating afterwards in daily life.
It’s important to not make presumptions in relationship, particularly in areas of intimate expectations and gender parts.
Probably the best difference in online dating within twenties and matchmaking in your fifties will be the method you find and talk about the long run. The long run you when pondered has become. You have in the pipeline for retirement. It’s likely you have children. The aging process and death aren’t since remote because they used to be. The way you as well as your time communicate in regards to and focus regarding future will dictate compatibility.
Dating inside Fifties: Sex Matters
Sex does matter. It performed when you were youthful and it still really does. Understand your limits and prices before beginning to date someone brand-new. Lots of earlier daters think more intimately liberated and confident compared to days of their particular vulnerable, unskilled youth. Others tend to be paralyzed by body issues and therefore are frightened of being with some body brand-new. Several tend to be wrestling with hormonal problems that adversely affect their gender lives. Making reference to gender has stopped being taboo; have a much these conversations rather early in another dating commitment.
Mention: with all the greater prevalence of STDs these days, actually postmenopausal females should require protection during sex.
Dating within Fifties: the last is actually History
You have a last; would youn’t? Take supply of what time has taught you. Just what have you ever learned from previous relationships? Exactly what do you need now? What can’t you sit?
Stay away from referring to exes on first date â or at least mention all of them only in moving and without bitterness. Anger is usually superior feedback from older daters. Get existence classes from relationship disappointments and simply start to time again when you’re ready to approach someone brand-new with wish and optimism.
Initially, show patience with your self. Dating could be nerve-wracking. Invest some time when you reenter the online dating world. In case you are nervous about fulfilling a stranger for lunch, go for a daytime go out. If you are bogged down by somebody’s affections, describe you’ll want to go gradually.
Show patience with dating typically. Don’t assume all person you date has to be “the only.” Besides, there is no even more ticking of the biological time clock; as opposed to matchmaking away from a sense of importance to wed and possess kids, you’ll slow down and make certain you are in a relationship for the right reasons.
Persevere and have a great time.
You should not date alone. Sure, you need to arrive to meal unicamente, but don’t begin online dating again without permitting loved ones understand. Tell your pals you are prepared to fulfill someone, and welcome these to set you right up.
For those who have adult young ones, you may find your dining tables have actually switched with them today desperate to supply matchmaking advice. Include family around you feel comfortable, but anticipate that the politics of demise and divorce case have a few of them feeling uneasy about you seeing some one brand-new. Never anticipate everybody else to appreciate; alternatively, remain true for your self with gentleness and grace when it comes to those situations.
Every decade appears to get more youthful and more youthful. You’ll still be vibrant and youthful in your fifties and sixties and past. Eliminate your self, stay life with purpose, and try to be someone you had desire to date.
Stay connected and involved. Meet people. Volunteer, get classes, choose church, and invest top quality time with good friends. In case you are self-confident, prioritizing what counts and adopting the issues love, you are living an entire life. And that, now matter exacltly what the age, is attractive.

Additional elements of the mating mind exacerbate it. A key cause stems from the qualities women seek in committed mateships. Most women are unwilling to settle for men who are less educated, less intelligent, and less professionally successful than they are. The flip side is that men are less exacting on precisely these dimensions, choosing to prioritize, for better or worse, other evolved criteria such as youth and appearance. So the initial sex ratio imbalance among educated groups gets worse for high achieving women. They end up being forced to compete for the limited pool of educated men not just with their more numerous educated rivals, but also with less educated women whom men find desirable on other dimensions.But wait: Susan Patton's much-smirked-at advice to apply effort to find a husband while one is in college has some sensibility behind it, too? Because,
The depletion of educated men worsens when we add the impacts of age and divorce to the mating matrix. As men age, they desire women who are increasingly younger than they are. Intelligent, educated women may go for a less accomplished partner for a casual fling, but for a committed partner they typically want mates their own age or a few years older, and at least as educated and career-driven. Since education takes time, the sex ratio imbalance gets especially skewed among the highly educated—those who seek advanced degrees to become doctors, lawyers, or professors, or who climb the corporate ladder post-MBA. And because men are more likely than women to remarry following divorce and to marry women increasingly younger than they are—three years at first marriage, five at second, eight at third—the gender-biased mating ratio skews more sharply with increasing age.Yikes. That's pretty fearsome odds, but on the other hand, one wonders just how much women past a certain point in their lives might want to quit the game altogether, or bat for the other side (i.e. take up lesbianism).


My name is Michael Skye.
I do not claim to be an expert on women and relationships. I have never been a woman, and can never fully know a woman’s experience. I have no fancy letters behind my name, no degree in counseling or psychology. Further, I’ve never been married, and am happily single at the moment. And finally, there are a great many things in this world that I know nothing about, and am simply no good at.
However, there is one skill I can teach you which can transform not only your relationship with your man (and men), but your relationship with your experience of yourself and your life in the most beautiful–dare I say orgasmic [link to testimonial]–way. If you let me.
Naturally a woman desires to to be in a relationship with a man she deeply loves, respects and trusts, and who is madly in love with her, deeply honors her and passionately ravishes her.
Sadly in today’s world, we’re often so busy and stressed that a relationship simply becomes another thing to manage. But managing a relationship, a man or yourself when it comes to love and passion–is no formula for love and passion! In fact, it’s often the very approach that is likely to drive a man away.
Men are, it has often been said, quite simple. I believe there is one thing men want and need above all else. Throughout history and still today nearly all men will put themselves in harms way to get it and keep it. Many have sacrificed everything, even their lives for it. Many have even killed for it.
It’s a feeling and experience I call honor. In my extensive work with men over the years, I’ve found that restoring or increasing their honor transforms their lives. Some have told me it literally saved their lives [link to john's vid]. And in my experience working with women facing relationship crisis, learning and practicing this art of honoring a man (and honoring one’s self in the process) is the one thing that turns everything around.
Sadly, it seems most women are completely clueless when it comes to understanding what honor is to a man, and how dire of a need it is for him (many reading this will dismiss “honor” out of hand as being his ‘male ego,’ ‘macho’ bravado, or what have you). Yet most men can’t really put it into words either.
I suggest that on a biological level, honor is so important to a man that it completely transforms who he is and how he moves in the world.
If you’re man’s not feeling this powerful feeling in your presence over time, he’ll either begin to slowly die inside, he’ll try to put you and others down, or he’ll leave. If he leaves you for another woman, you can bet that she reignited this feeling that I say he needs to feel.
It’s a more pressing need for a man now than perhaps ever before, as many factors in our post-modern society leave men deprived of this critical factor in his existence as a man.
I invite you to EXPERIENCE what happens in your heart and in your body when you feel yourself “honoring your man,” as I’ll be showing you.
After you’ve had a look at some of the videos, listened to some of the audios or read some of the articles, testimonials or stories, and you feel in your heart that I may have something to teach you, then I invite you to consider joining my monthly membership.
I live and travel around the world, and it’s always great to meet members when I travel. I’m open to the possibility of offering seminars, discussions or retreats in your home or town, however the monthly membership is the best first step.
Thank you for the opportunity to stand for you and the men in your life, and for all you desire,

Aim: The baby's special relationship with his caregiver affects his future psychological and physical health. The disruption of the mother-baby bonding can lead to mental difficulties and even psychopathologies in that period and afterward. This study aimed to reveal the relationships between attachment, expressing emotion, and somatization. Materials and Methods: A total of 175 volunteer university students, 142 females, 33 males, were included in the study. In the study, data were collected via self-report forms, namely, sociodemographic form, the Parental Bonding Instrument, the Somatization Scale, and the Emotional Expression Questionnaire. Results: A low level of negative correlation was found between expressing emotions and attachment to the mother. A weak but statistically significant negative relationship was found between somatization and attachment to mother and father. A weakly significant negative correlation was found between somatization and Overprotection-Father scores. While the somatization scores of the participants increased, the perceived protective, controlling, nonsupporting attitudes of the father also increased significantly. Conclusion: Further research needs to be focused on the theoretical and clinical implications of these results. The precise nature of these possible relationships is yet to be interpreted.

| Introduction|| |
Scientists who try to understand human behavior have been focusing on attachment for many years. Attachment theory explores the impact of early experiences with caregivers on subsequent interpersonal behaviors and perceptions. According to the attachment theory, a baby's special relationship with his caregiver affects his future psychological and physical health. Forming and sustaining social ties that are safe and satisfying seems to be a fundamental human desire. Deprivation of this need, particularly in early childhood, can affect how people function in relations in their adult life and can contribute to building adult insecure attachment patterns. The disruption of mother-infant bonding can lead to mental challenges and even psychopathologies both in that period and after. Hence, it is essential to understand this relationship with the caregiver. The attachment theory is a practical conceptual framework for understanding the development of somatization in adults.
Somatization is described as a tendency to encounter and communicate somatic distress and symptoms unaccounted for by pathological findings, attribute them to physical illness, and seek medical help. Expressing emotion, on the other hand, is verbal or nonverbal behaviors that can be seen from the outside after the emotions are experienced. They may be actions that follow an emotion such as shedding, crying, laughing. Studies have revealed a relationship between attachment and somatization. Other studies have shown that there is a relationship between expressing emotions and psychological and physiological well-being.
On the other hand, emotional processing has an essential place in attachment theory. All sorts of attachment are formed by the pattern of parent-child interaction. In communicating with caregivers, the infant internalizes specific cognitive and emotional responses named the internal working model. The attachment type has a critical role in processing emotional situations and acquiring emotional responses.
Although recent research reported that secure attachment could be considered as a protective factor against deficits in emotional processing and somatization of negative emotions, relatively few studies focused on relationships between somatization and attachment. This study aims to reveal the relationships between attachment, expressing emotion, and somatization.
| Materials and Methods|| |
The ethics committee approval has been obtained from the Uskudar University Noninterventional Research Ethics Committee (61351342/2019-10).
In this correlational study, 175 volunteers (142 females and 33 males) students were reached at Üsküdar University. The sampling selection method is sampling according to the group present. The age range of the participants forming the sample was calculated as 22–52 years (mean = 27.15). The education level of the participants varies from undergraduate to doctorate with a mean of 13.4 years.
To determine the sociodemographic characteristics of the participants and to investigate the factors affecting other scales, they are asked about their age, gender, education, marital status, income level, current chronic illness, whether there is a psychiatric illness in himself or his family, and a medical illness. It is a form consisting of 11 questions, including the medical history.
The parental bonding instrument
The Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI) was developed by Parker, Tupling, and Brown in 1979. Kapçı and Küçüker conducted the Turkish validity and reliability study in 2006. This scale evaluates not attachment styles, but positive or negative attachment to parents. The scale consists of 25 items. Twelve of these items are in the sub-dimension of interest, and 13 of them are in the care-control/overprotection sub-dimensions. The person is asked to respond to the items considering the first 16 years of his life. For each item, there are the options “It was totally like this,” “It was partially like this,” “Not quite like this,” “It was not like this at all” and the person is expected to choose one of them. Scoring is between 0 and 3 for each statement, while the person can get the minimum “0” and the maximum “36” points from the interest dimension, the minimum “0” and the maximum “39” points for the care-control/overprotection dimension.
The validity and reliability study of the Somatization Scale (SS) was carried out by Dülgerler in 2000. Each expression on the scale has a choice of “true” or “false.” A total score is obtained by adding up the scores from correct and incorrect answers. The scores obtained from the scale range between “0 and 33.” If the scores get closer to 33, it indicates somatization disorder.
Emotional Expression Questionaire
Emotional Expression Questionaire (EEQ) was developed by King and Emmons in 1990 and adapted to Turkish by Kuzucu. The scale determines at what level “positive,” “negative” and “closeness” feelings are expressed in interpersonal relationships and individually, verbally, or nonverbally. It has 15 Likert items. The total score is obtained by adding the score from each item on the scale. A high score means a high expression of emotion.
SPSS v. 20.0 package program (software package SPSS® version 20.0, IBM Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) was used to evaluate the data. t-test and one-way ANOVA test were used in the analysis of normally distributed data. Pearson's correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between variables. P < 0.05 was accepted as a statistical significance level.
| Results|| |
175 subjects (n = 175) participated in the study. Women had a rate of 81.1% (n = 142) and men had a rate of 18.9% (n = 33). The average age of the participants was 27.15. Of the participants, 81.5% (n = 141) are single and 18.5% (n = 32) are married. While 15.6% (n = 27) of the participants stated that they applied to the psychiatry department before, 84.4% (n = 146) stated that they did not have such an application. Those with a history of psychiatric illness in their families constituted 22% (n = 38) of the participants.
The average score the participants got from the Parental Attachment Scale (PAS)-Mother scales is 44.74; the average of the scores they got from the PAS-Father scales is 44.86. The average of the scores the participants got from the EEQ is 73.35. The average of the scores the participants got from the SS is 7.69. Examination of the relationship between the participants' PBI, EEQ, and SS scores is given in [Table 1].

When the PBI, EEQ, and SS scores of the participants were compared according to their gender, PBI and EEQ scores did not show a statistically significant difference between women and men (P > 0.05). SS scores were statistically significantly higher in women (8.22 ± 4.50) compared to men (5.28 ± 3.37) with a significance level of P < 0.001.
When the PBI, EEQ, and SS scores of the participants were compared according to their marital status, the overprotection-Mother scores were found to be statistically significantly higher in married (15.51 ± 3.35) compared to single (13.24 ± 4.96, P < 0.05). Overprotection-Father scores were found to be statistically significantly higher in married (16.06 ± 4.11) than singles (14.08 ± 4.79, P < 0.05). EEQ scores were found to be statistically significantly higher in married (76.73 ± 7.89) compared to single (72.61 ± 9.38, P < 0.05). SS scores did not show a statistically significant difference between married and single individuals (P > 0.05).
Care Control-Father scores were found to be statistically significantly higher in those with high-income levels (30.94 ± 6.11) compared to those with medium (30.50 ± 5.51) and low income (25.82 ± 6.68, P < 0.05). EEQ scores do not differ statistically significantly according to income level (P > 0.05). SS scores were also not statistically significantly different according to income level (P > 0.05).
When the PBI, EEQ, and SS scores of the participants were compared according to having or not having a child, the Care Control-Mother scores were found to be statistically significantly higher (P < 0.05) in those without a child (31.32 ± 5.27) compared to those with a child (28.65 ± 5.12). Overprotection-Mother scores were found to be significantly higher in those with a child (15.61 ± 3.76) compared to those without a child (13.35 ± 4.89, P < 0.05). Overprotection-Father scores were found to be significantly higher in those with children (16.47 ± 3.89) compared to those without children (14.23 ± 4.78) (P < 0.05). EEQ scores do not show a statistically significant difference according to whether they have children (P > 0.05). SS scores were also not statistically significantly different between those with and without children (P > 0.05).
PBI-Father total scores were higher in those with a low somatization level when compared to a high somatization level and a moderate somatization level (P < 0.05). Care-Control Father total scores were higher in those with a low somatization level when compared to a high somatization level and a moderate somatization level (P < 0.05). Overprotection Father's total scores were higher in those with a low somatization level when compared to a high somatization level and a moderate somatization level (P < 0.05). The statistical effect of variables on somatization is given in [Table 2].
In the model, the participant's age, gender, marital status, education level, whether or not they have children, medical illness history, family history of psychiatric illness, PBI Mother and PBI Father total scores, and total score of Emotion Expressing Scale were tested. It was found that being a woman increased the presence of somatization with a coefficient of 1.446 (P < 0.05, 95% confidence interval: 1.223–14.753).
| Discussion|| |
In this study, the associations between attachment, somatization, and expressing emotions were aimed to be examined. As a result of the study, it was determined that there was no statistically significant relationship between expressing emotions and somatization. This research supported the hypothesis that there is a relationship between attachment and somatization and attachment with expressing emotion. Besides, the gender factor was found to be the influencing variable in somatization.
The results of this study revealed that somatization differs according to gender. Somatization Scale scores were found to be statistically significantly higher in women compared to men. The literature supports our research results. It has been found that somatization disorder is seen 5–20 times more in women than men., Studies show that the prevalence in women ranges between 0.2% and 20%, somatization is lower than 0.2% in men. Somatization is more common in women over the age of 40 than in younger ages. Other studies have shown that bodily complaints are expressed more by women. It has also been stated that physical disorders not based on an organic cause are more common in women. First-degree female relatives of women diagnosed with somatization disorder may also have an increased risk for somatization disorder.
In this study, a slightly significant negative correlation was noticed between mother attachment and somatization. Although it is a mild relationship, the degree of somatization decreases as the levels of individuals to find their mothers meet their psychological and physical needs increase. Furthermore as the father's positive evaluation increases, the somatization scores of the participants decreased. The literature also presents results compatible with this study. Stuart and Noyes found in their study that the attachment of patients experiencing somatization was anxious, and this attachment arises from their childhood experiences with their caregivers. A study on people who took part in the war found that people who had traumatic experiences in their childhood had more depression, anxiety, and somatization symptoms, whereas the group with fewer stress symptoms than those with a secure attachment style. According to the present study results, a low level of significant negative correlation was found between the participants' expressing their emotions and their attachment to the mother. In other words, as individuals' expressions of emotions increase, their positive evaluation of their mothers and finding their mothers as relevant decreases. A longitudinal study found that securely attached individuals had more emotional experiences with their partners during adulthood and expressed less negative emotions. Another study points to a mild-to-strong relationship between mother's interest in childhood and alexithymia, the difficulty in recognizing and expressing emotions. A slight correlation was found between parental overprotection and alexithymia and between parental overprotection and difficulty expressing emotions. In our study, no relationship was found between attachment to father and expressing emotion. Contrary to our findings, a study found a positive relationship between alexithymia scores and childhood maternal neglect and paternal indifference.
Another hypothesis of the present study was that there is a relationship between somatization and expressing emotions. Research findings revealed that there was no relationship between EEQ and SS scores. Research findings from the literature on the subject do not seem compatible with this study. It has been thought that chronic pain and depression may be related to difficulties in communication with others, disruption in processing intense emotions, and immune system problems. A study conducted on oncologists found a positive correlation between participants' levels of burnout and their negative attitude in expressing emotions. There found to be a negative correlation between the prevalence of eating disorders, different somatic disorders, and substance addiction, and the levels of perception and expression of emotion. A recent study provides strong support for the assumption that attachment avoidance and attachment anxiety distinctively predict health outcomes, and emotion dysregulation can be one of the mechanisms explaining attachment–health relationships.
This research has some limitations. The most important limitation of this study is its cross-sectional character. This type of research certainly cannot be an ideal way to establish causality between different variables. Furthermore, the data in this study are based on self-report measures. Due to the use of questionnaires that can only check for symptoms, not whether these symptoms are medically explained or not, it is, however, not possible to conclude somatization adequately defined.
| Conclusion|| |
In this study, the possible relationships between attachment, somatization, and expressing emotion were investigated. A low level of negative correlation was found between expressing emotions and attachment to the mother. A weak but statistically significant negative relationship was found between somatization and attachment to mother and father. A weakly significant negative correlation was found between somatization and overprotection-father scores. While the somatization scores of the participants increased, the perceived protective, controlling, nonsupporting attitudes of the father also increased significantly.
Further research needs to be focused on the theoretical and clinical implications of these results. The precise nature of these possible relationships is yet to be interpreted.

|MONDAY through FRIDAY friends !|
Then we have work/office – Adult Friendships. Those start on Monday and end on Friday. But then do they? Adult friendships are looked upon, cherished in a new light and with a different perspective. Yes, we may never do anything together or even see that fellow employee over the weekend but then Monday it starts all over again. But down deep we all have that someone, if needed, we know we could call on in a moment’s notice and they would not hesitate to come to our aid.
"That is friendship that can't be bought or even explained."
Friendship is about words, actions, feelings and deed. When it comes to finding friends, perhaps the first step we need to ponder is what is friendship exactly? Does it mean you have them as friend - Facebook status maybe? Not really.
A relationship needs to have some key elements in order to be labeled as friendship.
* A Personal Relationship that Is reciprocated
* Be a friend yourself - "it’s not all about you actually"
* Be truly interested in what they are talking about
* Friends don't keep score
* Trust – communication
* Not being demanding on ones time
* Expect the unexpected and unrealistic things.
* Haven’t talk in days, weeks, months but when you do it’s as if you never missed a beat.
I have had the privilege to witness true friendships and be a part of a true friendship. When an employee mentors a younger employee, when an employee passes on knowledge, when an employee buys breakfast for another, when a impromptu gathering happens, when an employee makes a special kind of dessert for birthdays, when an employee’s spouse makes Christmas bread, when an employee shares goodies from the garden, when employees get together to play a game of golf or out to eat, when employees get together for a hike, when employees share their weddings, kids birthdays, when employees share pictures of family, when employees share grandchildren stories or when an employee buys something as simple as a jar of honey because it was the desire of another employees heart so he may have it for his wife - - these are things that triggers compassion and deep friendship ......"That is friendship that can't be bought or even explained."
Life is short and should be cherished. So I encourage each of us to take time to share simple things, kind words, drop a card, give a call, share moments of life every time you get a chance. Not only with family or close friends but with those "MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY FRIENDS" because sometimes you spend more time with them than you actually do with your own family.
It’s 3:00 am and I find myself wondering if I have been that true friend. Nothing like having a friend as well as being a friend. So give of yourself today – you will actually be the one receiving the blessing!
Acts 20:35.......remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’
Have a blessed day

The ritual of feeling your fellow man taste satisfaction. To know that you are all content, tasting the same flavor and experiencing the same love of being together.
A family sitting around a heaping pile of spaghetti as they get to discuss life, where it’s going, the future of what is to become.
Food brings us together, whether in a restaurant as we taste the delights of a chef, caring for an entire room. Laughing together with your partner over not having to do dishes.
Laughing in another room where you smear whipped cream over their nose as you cook together.


Dear Beautiful Boy from the coffee shop,
I feel like whenever I see you working, we never get time to talk, and I know we’d have a lot to talk about. You were wearing a Portal shirt today and anyone who knows me knows that I adore that series of games. You said that you liked my Powerpuff girl key chains and my green scarf. I love how blue your eyes are. I hope we can talk more soon.

7 Easy Ways to Show Your Parents You Love Them Everyday
- Draw a picture for them.
- Write a letter expressing how you feel about them and their love for you.
- Keep your room and play areas neat and clean. This is a sure way to show your mom and dad that you respect them and it will be greatly appreciated.
- Listen to and follow their instructions the first time. This goes a long way!
- Prepare a meal for them. It doesn’t matter if you’re not actually cooking. A cold turkey sandwich with chips provides a break from cooking and is a perfect meal.
- Insist on a family movie, TV, or game night at least once a week.
- Most importantly, say “I love you” often and give them lots of hugs and kisses!

It's nice having someone to talk to 24/7.
Not literally every minute, but throughout the day. Just having someone there being able to take you away from your boredom or to occupy you when you’re bored, or to just simply talk to you about how your day went. It’s comforting to know that someone genuinely wants and likes to talk to you.

Usually she's tried to play cute and convince us that no reading has occurred. "No, really, he/she didn't." And she gets a little upset, or sometimes giggly, when we remind her that we know the other parent has already read to her.
Tonight, when I told her that I knew Mumma had already read to her because she had told me, Quinn, dropped to her bed and sobbed: "Why do you guys always talk about that!"

I'm actually in the mood to blog. Right on!
Thursday night I met someone just Utterly Incredible!
He is a Scorpio which is a new experience for me, & was raised around Latter Day Saints for much of his life. He is stunningly featured with stunning, gorgeous eyes. He too, does hair (is attending beauty school) & has a passion for life & is very charismatic.
I met him Thursday night at the Ogden Outreach & we have not been apart, since! He just about overwhelmed me twice over the weekend; He told me that he is in love with me on Saturday & always wants to be with me (& I let him know that I too, am in Love with him), then again, last night When he actually proposed to me! I couldn't help but accept as I crave him in every way possible.
Yesterday at church (such an amazing church) with My Dennis, was magical. People kept telling us that we are beautiful, cute, & have a great energy together! They were simply telling us what I already knew.
Dennis is just beautiful, & I'm so in awe of him & who he is. He is also very good with my kids; So loving with them & able to give them direction when they need it. I admit that I also love that he has a very protective instinct about him that makes me feel all the better around him.
I'm astonished that I can fall in love so rapidly, with anyone. This is a first for me.
I keep thanking God for him in my life & continue to ask him for my guidance with him.


My daddy has been gone for a long time.. he passed in 1964.. on Good Friday.. I think of him often and miss him terribly. I wish he had the chance to know my children and my grandchildren. I like to think I see him in my oldest son.. who loves to cook.. just like my daddy..

Kral Harald və kraliça Sonyanın qızı olan Marta Luiza qardaşı və onun iki övladından sonra taxt-taca dördüncü iddialı namizəddir.
Onun ilk nikahından 3 qızı var.
When you meet your twin flame, you know. I have been lucky enough to have met mine. @shamandurek has changed my life, like he does with so many. He has made me realize that unconditional love actually exists here on this planet. He embraces all of me without question or fear. He makes me laugh more than anyone, has the most profound wisdom to share and all the bits in between from the diversity of his being. I feel so happy and blessed that he is my boyfriend. Thank you my love, for including me so generously into your family. I love you from this eternity to the next. And to those of you who feel the need to criticize: Hold your horses. It is not up to you to choose for me or to judge me. I don’t choose my man to satisfy any of you or the norms or boxes you have chosen in your mind for me to be in. I don’t thrive there, nor do I exist in your illusion about me. I choose from love. And that’s it. Shaman Durek is merely a man I love spending my time with and who fulfills me. So thank you for respecting my actions and my choice of partner. All I know at this moment is that we love each other and I am super happy. Have a wonderful, loving Sunday and Mother’s Day(for the USA). 📸 @dhendersonphoto #love #unconditionallove #newlove #boyfriend #inlove


The connotative pressures that come with being (or giving) the label of a BFF can be consuming. Similar to taking the plunge into an official romantic relationship, gaining the title of an acronym that involves both “best” and “forever” means something. While our younger, more frivolous friendships can cause the BFF title to jump from person to person based on things like outfit choices and neighborhood proximity, having and/or being a best friend in our adult years should be quite special. Make sure to caress the relationship by honing in on these telling signs:
The Gift Giver: Gift giving doesn’t mean showering your PIC with outlandish and constant gifts, but it does mean understanding the validity a personalized gesture gives. Something as simple as a postcard that speaks to your bestie’s sense of humor or a TrackR to kindly comment on his/her constant state of lost items is a great way to show you care without going over the top.
They aren’t your exact replica. You have tons in common - you can eat together, travel together, talk to one another and feel comfortable trying out new things together. You are still, however, different people. You appreciate one another’s differences and personality traits; you take time to take care of yourself and your needs while still making intentional room to spend with your BFF.
They keep it real. Part of the joys of having a true, close friend is that you can count on them for honest opinions and thoughts. Regardless of whether or not you heed their advice, you at least know what they think about those shoes, your relationship and your habits if you ask them. No sense in having someone who constantly agrees with things just to stay in your good graces.
They make you smile. From a short, shared smirk to rolling on the floor with the giggles, your best friend should care about your happiness. A friend who is willing to bring out your smile means he or she is also privy to your likes and humor, which allows your time together to be fun and full of surprises.
They keep your secrets. We all differentiate on how much we disclose about our personal lives to certain people, but when it comes to your BFF, whatever you decided to share should feel sacred and safe. This doesn’t mean that you spend your time together bad mouthing other people or seeping in the woes of your lives, but it does mean that you can count on one another when it comes to your private thoughts and stories.

From: Couple Therapy: An information guide (© 1999 CAMH)
Couple therapy is a means of resolving problems and conflicts that couples have not been able to handle effectively on their own. It involves both partners sitting down with a trained professional to discuss their thoughts and feelings. The aim is to help them gain a better understanding of themselves and their partner, to decide if they need and want to make changes, and if so, to help them to do so.
Are Children Involved in Couple Therapy?
No. Couple therapy involves only the couple. Children may be affected either directly or indirectly by problems in their parents’ relationship, and to varying degrees, depending on factors such as their ages and the nature and severity of their parents’ problems. They may, as a result, become anxious and begin to exhibit their own problems, although not all of their difficulties necessarily stem from those of their parents. The children’s difficulties may improve as the couple’s relationship improves or the couple may become more confident in their own ability to help the children.
Therapy that involves both the couple and their children is a different process called family therapy, which usually focuses on the relationships among family members rather than solely on the couple’s relationship. During the course of this therapy, however, the focus may shift to the parental couple for a period of time. If this occurs, children would no longer be involved in treatment. If parents are wondering whether their children should be involved in the sessions, they should discuss this with the therapist.
What is the difference between couple therapy and sex therapy?
Couple therapy focuses on the total relationship while sex therapy deals more specifically with sexual dysfunction. Other problems within a relationship often affect the sexual relationship, and the quality of their sexual relationship is important to many couples, so this may be discussed in couple therapy. However, a couple may experience sexual problems in an otherwise sound relationship. If this is the case, sex therapy may be beneficial. This treatment recommendation would be based on the therapist’s initial assessment of the problem.
What kinds of problems do people usually bring to couple therapy?
People seek therapy for a range of problems and every couple is different. Some of the most common complaints include lack of communication, frequent or constant arguments, unfulfilled emotional needs, financial concerns and conflicts about children.
You may be wondering why these problems sound like common issues that many couples resolve without professional help. Couples often seek help not because their problems are different from those of other couples, but because they are unable to resolve them. Sometimes, this is because of a buildup of frustration and disappointment over time, sometimes be-cause there is some other issue or meaning underlying the conflict. Other couples seek help as a result of a crisis in the relationship, such as an affair or apparent loss of affection and caring, or a traumatic event, such as an illness or loss in the family. (See the Appendix for examples of the kinds of situations for which couples seek help.)
What will the therapist do?
The therapist is a professionally trained, objective third party who will listen to both partners as they express their thoughts and feelings and help them identify and clarify problem areas.
Most therapists start with an assessment. In an assessment, the therapist asks about the problems and how both people see them, the history of the relationship, and the individual histories of the partners. This enables the therapist to develop a deeper understanding. Most therapists will discuss their impression of the situation with the couple at the conclusion of the assessment. The couple then can decide whether to accept the therapist’s recommendations about whether or not to enter therapy and what kind of therapy to pursue.
Once the couple enters therapy, the therapist’s interpretation of issues may offer the couple a new perspective, which permits a change in feelings and behaviour. The therapist may act as a mediator, attempting to clear up misunderstandings in communication. This is often difficult for people to do themselves because they are emotionally caught up in the situation. The therapist may also help the partners consider alternative ways of handling problematic situations.

Synopsis: Giles watches Buffy work out. Turns out that wasn't something he should do when he's drunk
Author's Note: Written for the Drunk!Giles ficathon
Giles stumbled into the small house he shared with Buffy- although recently he began wondering why they were still living together. A voice in the back of his mind told that things had taken a turn for the worse between them the first night they slept together, but the alcohol he had consumed quickly silenced that voice. He threw his keys in the general area of where the hallway table was, not really bothering to make sure the keys had even made it near the table. He struggled out of jacket on his way to the kitchen, pouring himself a glass of scotch- which he managed to spill most of it on the counter instead of into the glass.
The Watcher downed the drink, pausing in pouring another glass when he sounds coming from one of the rooms in the house. His mind automatically went to the prick Buffy had been flirting with at the bar she had taken him to, images of her interaction with the cocky son of a bitch flashed in his head. He slammed the glass down and made his way to the back of the house, figuring he’d take out his anger and insecurities on the heavy bag while his Slayer shagged her one night stand.
Of course, what he hadn’t counted on was finding Buffy going at it with the practice dummy. Judging from the way she kept her focus on the dummy, the drunken Watcher was sure she didn’t even know he was in the room with her. He crept over to the stack of training mats in the corner across from him, leaning against them as he watched the blonde. After nearly 10 minutes of watching her, Giles let himself slide down against the wall until he was sitting on the floor.
The more he watched her, the more he let his mind wander to the many different scenarios he had wished the night would’ve ended with. His eyes roamed over her body as she went through her training routine, a smug smirk coming to his face when he noticed the fading bruise from their quick morning shag. Giles highly doubted that the prick Buffy had chatted up at the bar was capable of making Buffy scream in pleasure the way he could.
“What?” his head snapped up to find Buffy glaring at him, letting him know he had said his last thought out loud.
Giles opened and closed his mouth, looking for something to say. Buffy rolled her eyes when he didn’t respond and went back to punching the heavy bag. It was another few minutes before the Slayer turned around and glared at him.
“Is there a particular reason you’re still here, Giles?” she snapped.
“I live here,” Giles said, struggling to his feet and leaning against the wall as soon as he was standing.
“I meant in this room,” she clarified. “Unless you plan on sparring with me, then get out and go be drunk somewhere else.”
“No, I…we need to talk, Buffy.”
They stood looking at each other in silence for a few moments.
“Any time you want to start talking, I’m listening.” Buffy was not in the mood to deal with him when he was like this.
“This has to stop.” He muttered. “I can’t keep sleeping with you and then watch you…throw yourself at other men.”
“Then stop sleeping with me. It’s that simple,”
“It isn’t that simple, Buffy.” Giles sighed as he looked at the floor. “I can’t just give up being with you. Granted, this isn’t the relationship that I wanted for us but I’m so in love with you that I’ll take what I can. I just can’t watch you flirt with other men while I’m standing right there and then listen to you fuck them, I can’t do that…”
“You’re in love with me?” Buffy whispered, staring at him with wide eyes.
Giles stopped talking when he heard the question and felt himself sober up quickly when he realized what he had let slip out. A million thoughts raced through his mind as a voice told him to just tell her while another voice demanded that he backtrack and blame the alcohol. He scrambled for words, looking at the floor as if it held the answers he was looking for.
“Giles, please.” Buffy said softly, taking a step towards him.
“I didn’t mean it,” he found himself muttering.
He looked up when he heard the hint of sadness in her voice, but dismissed that thought when he saw the indifferent expression on her face. As he reached a hand out, Buffy took a step back and gave him a small smile.
“We’ll talk more about this in the morning when you’re sober,” she told him as she began walking out of the room. “Night, Giles.”
The Watcher just watched her leave the room, mumbling a small “goodnight” before sliding back down to the floor. He knew that he had just screwed everything up by letting his feelings slip out.
“Morning, Sleeping Beauty.” Buffy teases as Giles entered the kitchen, his hand messing up his hair even more. “I made you scrambled eggs and toast.”
“I’m not hungry,” he mumbled as he grabbed a bottle of water, sitting at the kitchen table.
“You say that, but I’ve seen you drunk like you were last night. You get cranky if you don’t eat when you’re hung-over.” She set a plate in front of him and sat across the table.
Giles stared at the plate and pushed the eggs around with his fork. He couldn’t look at her, nor did he know what to say to her. Silence settled over them and the Watcher did his best to ignore the feel of her eyes on him. He was beginning to wonder how much longer he was going to have to sit in silence when Buffy cleared her throat, grabbing his attention.
“Giles, we’ve known each other a really long time now. Right?” she waited for him to nod before continuing. “So we’re friends, despite our past discriminations.”
“I’ve never stopped considering you my friend, Buffy.” He told her, his eyes locking with hers for a brief moment.
“Good, because you’re my best friend Giles. And friends can trust each other and be honest with each other, right?” it took him a minute to realize she was waiting for him to acknowledge what she had said. He made a small sound of agreement before she continued. “Right. I just…I wish you could be honest with me without using alcohol as a crutch.”
Giles stared at her in shock. Surely she had taken his accidental confession as the ramblings of a drunken old man, she had to have believed him when he said he hadn’t meant those words. Shock soon gave way to confusion as he heard Buffy elaborate. She went on about how she wish he would have said something earlier if he was so bothered with their relationship, how it would have let her known that she could have moved on faster without worrying about him, and how it would have saved her a lot of confusion and sleepless nights.
“What do you mean?” he interpreted her. “You wanted this to be casual.”
“No I didn’t. I wanted a relationship with you, Giles.” Buffy explained. “You were the one who never said anything. You were either gone by the time I woke up or you would just wake up and say a quick good morning and then leave. And you always act as if nothing happened between us until the next time we sleep together.”
“So you show that you want to be with me by throwing yourself at other men in front of me?”
“I thought I could coax you into showing me something to let me know you didn’t think of me as some one night stand!” her voice had raised in volume, taking the Watcher by surprise. “And last night when you said you were in love with me, I had thought I finally got what I wanted. But you took it back, and you sounded less drunk then when you had said it.”
It hit him exactly how well his back tracking had worked, and the hurt flashing in her hazel eyes made him realize he didn’t want her thinking she meant nothing more than a convenient shag for him. Giles pushed away the plate and looked at Buffy. The Watcher took a deep breath and grabbed her hand.
“I’m sorry I made you feel this way, Buffy.” He began, rubbing his thumb over her knuckles. “I do love you…”
“You said you didn’t mean it. Don’t try to make me feel better,” the blonde cut him off and looked down at their hands, trying to hide the fact that she had tears in her eyes.
“I didn’t want you to find out that way.” He admitted after a moment. “I didn’t want to be drunk and arguing with you when I told you I was in love with you. I want a relationship with you, Buffy.”
Silence fell over them as the Slayer took in what he had said. Giles felt his heart pound in his chest as he waited for some response from her. After several nerve wracking minutes, Buffy finally looked at him.
“I love you, Giles, I do. And I want a relationship with you. But,” and he felt his heart drop as soon as he heard her say “but”. “You were drunk last night. And I know you’re not know, but I don’t know that you’re not just saying this for my benefit.”
Giles fell silent when she raised her free hand, signaling that she wasn’t done yet.
“We can start over though. No more one night stand type sex, no more throwing myself at men to get your attention. Just you and me, taking this one step at a time.”
A small smile came to Giles as he caught the meaning of what she was saying. Buffy let out a small giggle at the boyish expression on his face at the hope of a future with her, both knowing they had a real chance at a relationship. The Watcher smiles as she excused herself to go get ready for the day, pausing on her way out of the kitchen.
“Oh, and Giles?” she looked over her shoulder at him.
“No more drinking when something’s bothering you. I thought we had gotten over that when I was in college,” she gave him a playful glare when he shrugged and gave her a sheepish smile. “And no more drunken training sessions…unless I’m drunk too and we’re doing a completely different kind of training.”
Giles narrowed in slight confusion, blushing slightly when Buffy sent him a wink and smirked.
“Don’t be so embarrassed, Giles. We’ve done plenty of not so Watchery/Slayery activities in there,” Giles turned even redder at the reminder.
At Buffy’s laugh as she left, he shook his head. He was in for an interesting relationship.

Ketika wanita menangis,
Itu bukan berarti dia tidak berusaha menahannya,
Mekainkan karena pertahanannys sudah tak mampu lagi membendung air matanya.

Melainkan karena dia sudah tidak sanggup berpura-pura kuat.

Happy Birthday to our kid leader, Taeyeon!
I think simply saying thank you for everything would be enough. Your fierce, yet quiet love for the members and the group itself, your love for sones, your love for music and singing, all made me fall in love with you. I know things aren’t ever easy, but I hope that you take care of yourself and that you have a lovely birthday. I love you!


Piecing together a disconnected family history, Playback Theatre is a series of hand-painted salt prints from manipulated digital negatives utilizing 19c. cabinet cards and rare family photographs. Blurring the boundaries between myth and reality, figures from the found cabinet cards act as 'understudies' or stand-ins for my missing and often forgotten family members. I am drawn to the interplay between the autobiographical and imaginary through stories of romantic unions, mortality, and family structure. Each image is hand-painted with watercolors and gouache paint and are unique one-of-a-kind work.

This is what it comes down to :.
As women empowerment increase, women expectations from a marriage will increase as well. As expectations increase, it will be harder for men to fulfill their needs and please them. Women will be more and more the chooser in a relationship. Also, because women will have the upper hand as they get more empowered, they will also have more control over whether they want to divorce or not. And most likely they will want to divorce more as men will have a harder time fulfilling their expectations.
More divorce leads to more expenses from the men’s side as there is still a double standard especially in Asian culture. Even though women want all the empowerment, men are still expected to pay for the house, car, wedding, etc. Women usually come into the marriage with nothing.
As expenses from the men increase over divorces, men will shun this marriage institution and will seek their mate based on a dollar worth value. This leads to prostitution. Men will seek short term relationship that minimizes potential financial damage in the long run.
As prostitution thrives, women from poorer less empowered countries will supply the demand.
The question becomes, which is faster? Empowerment or Prostitution?
In the long run, assuming ALL women become empowered, men must advance technology to make women robots that is a perfect replica of a human female. Then we will no longer need female. We will stop procreating, men will just have sex with robots. Likewise women will have sex with robots.
Procreation stops, we all perish.
So, conclusion, don’t empower women.


"The first duty of love is to listen"
I have been providing therapy for couples for 15 years in a range of settings:
- NHS Primary Care Team
- Private Practice
- Voluntary sector.
Many forms of couple therapy focus on the communication between couples and how to improve this. Often this is very helpful and resolves the difficulties the couple are experiencing with one another.
However for some couples this is not sufficient. These couples tend to report that as their relationship has broken down because they have felt deeply wounded by their partner's behaviour. This may result in a breakdown of trust in the relationship and feelings of anger, sadness and even despair.
I offer Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (Johnson and Greenberg), which uses the theories of attachment (Bowlby) to attend to the emotional wounding that each partner has suffered in the relationship. Each partner can then begin to heal, learn to trust their partner again and rebuild their relationship.

“Don’t Bite the Sun” is a companion quest in The Outer Worlds that revolves around helping Parvati, a crew member of the Unreliable, in her personal journey of self-discovery and her relationship with Junlei Tennyson, the chief engineer of the Groundbreaker. Here’s a detailed explanation of the quest, its pivotal decision points, and its potential outcomes and rewards.
The quest begins when Parvati asks the player to help her prepare for a date with Junlei. The player must help her acquire various items, including a special Caffenoid drink, a new outfit, and some advice on how to approach the date. During the quest, the player will have to make several decisions that will impact Parvati’s confidence and the outcome of her date.
The player must decide how to advise Parvati and help her make decisions regarding her relationship with Junlei. The choices involve considering Parvati’s feelings, her personal growth, and the potential consequences of their actions.
Potential Outcomes and Rewards Of A Successful Date With Junlei
The outcomes of this quest primarily depend on the player’s choices and how well they guide Parvati throughout the quest. The potential outcomes are:
- Parvati has a successful date with Junlei:
- Parvati will gain confidence and develop a stronger bond with Junlei.
- The player will receive Parvati’s gratitude and a boost to their relationship with her as a companion.
- Parvati has an unsuccessful date with Junlei:
- Parvati may feel disappointed and discouraged, affecting her confidence and relationship with Junlei.
- The player’s relationship with Parvati as a companion may be affected negatively.
Impact on the player’s experiences later in the game
The decisions made in “Don’t Bite the Sun” can have lasting consequences that affect the player’s experience throughout the game, particularly in terms of their relationship with Parvati as a companion. Depending on the choices made, the player may experience different interactions with Parvati and potentially influence her personal growth.
- A successful date and positive guidance can lead to a stronger bond between the player and Parvati, possibly unlocking additional dialogues and interactions.
- An unsuccessful date and negative guidance can lead to a weaker bond between the player and Parvati, possibly affecting her morale and performance as a companion.
The player’s decisions in this quest may not have a significant impact on other quests or resources in the game, as the quest primarily focuses on Parvati’s personal journey and relationship with Junlei.


My understanding of love comes from years of my family saying "I love you", one long term relationship, and a few random acts of love here and there. I have to say, I got a pretty good dose of love in my day.
For quite some time I have had the pleasure of filming and editing weddings together. Some of them were for good friends of mine. I enjoy being the go-to videographer for my friends weddings. I enjoy the fact that I don't have to be standing around awkwardly looking for someone to talk to. You bet I partake in the dancing though.
What have I learned from filming a few of these weddings? That love is alive.
Yes, it is alive and working wonders. It is intertwined with the fibers of wedding dresses and sprinkled in the bright lights on the dance floor. Weddings give a sense of hope that love exists and is out there for anyone. Capturing that glimmer in someones eye as they look at their new wife or husband makes my heart melt. Sometimes I can't keep back the tears.
I am grateful for the clients I have had. They all have been understanding and laid back for the most part. I always ask the bride, before the mayhem starts, what she wants captured the most. One said her grooms face, while another smiled and said "just capture the joy of the day." I love hearing the answer to these questions, because it lets me see a piece of them. You're not just filming another wedding, but you're filming the love between two individuals.
People. Showing off the human condition is one of the reasons I got into filmmaking. The joy, the sadness, the one-in-a-lifetime moments and the unexpected turns. Weddings are one of the most joyful and stressful events to film. They are one of the highlights of the human experience. I feel honored that this is my job.
