Sleep deprived men over perceive women’s sexual interest and intent
Results show that when they were well-rested, both men and women rated the sexual intent of women as significantly lower than that of men. However, following one night of sleep deprivation, men’s rating of women’s sexual intent and interest increased significantly, to the extent that women were no longer seen as having lower sexual intent than men. Sleep deprivation had no significant effect on variables related to commitment.
According to the authors, sleep deprivation is known to cause frontal lobe impairment, which has a negative effect on decision-making variables such as risk-taking sensitivity, moral reasoning and inhibition. However, this is the first study to investigate the impact of sleep deprivation on romantic and sexual decision-making.
“Our findings here are similar to those from studies using alcohol, which similarly inhibits the frontal lobe,” said co-principal investigator Jennifer Peszka, PhD, associate professor of psychology at Hendrix College in Conway, Ark., who led the study along with her colleague Jennifer Penner, PhD. “Sleep deprivation could have unexpected effects on perceptual experiences related to mating and dating that could lead people to engage in sexual decisions that they might otherwise not when they are well-rested. Poor decision-making in these areas can lead to problems such as sexual harassment, unplanned pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases and relationship conflicts which are all factors that have serious medical, educational and economic implications for both the individual and for society.”…>>>more


There is no ‘ I ‘ in an Ideal Marriage
The efforts for a successful marriage don’t end with finding the right partner/ soulmate. Marriage is a journey. And journeys don’t just need a good partner, but also a map in hand.
Before you jump on to think that Love is the Map, read this.
Like any other relationship, Love is the foundation of marriage as well.
There are people who fall in love and then decide to tie the knot. In some cases, people get married first and then sprout the seed of love.
This seed can definitely give birth to a wonderful life, but it needs care and nourishing. The vows to keep the relationship above all, in happiness and in tough times.
Atharva Veda – the “knowledge storehouse of atharvāṇas: procedures for everyday life” shares some powerful mantras to help partners to embark on a happy and loving journey of marriage!
- Thou shall share it all!
Sharing is the key to a successful marriage. The husband and wife should communicate fully and openly and share all their thoughts and feelings with each other.
- Two wrongs don’t make a right
Both partners should possess good traits. The husband should be hardworking, strong yet affectionate. The wife should be calm and supportive. Calm doesn’t mean weak and strong doesn’t mean brutal. Both partners bring individual qualities and work together. These traits will automatically be imbibed by their children, as they learn through the examples set by their parents rather than the preaching.
Love cannot automatically bring Compatibility. Sharing and caring for each other, listening, and accepting the differences develop compatibility over a period of time. It is the most important ingredient for a healthy and long-lasting marriage.
There is no relationship without a few arguments but most important is the resolve.
- Impressions matter
Love could be blind but might still smell a bad odor!
When our senses are limited to the physical manifestations of the world, the laws of physical attraction are bound to be applicable!
Stereotyping of beauty is of course a bad practice but expecting your partner to ignore basic grooming and hygiene is unrealistic.
Both partners should take care of their health and personality to tingle each other’s senses and keep the spark alive!
- Out of sight is out of mind
Researchers can keep statistics on long-term relationships, but we all know how difficult it is to make it work!
Intentionally or unintentionally, in the name of ‘independence’, or ‘professional growth’ couples allow distances to grow. Marriage is about the journey together, so if you are finding reasons to stay apart, consider working on the cause/s.
Duties of the Wifey
The role of the wife in marriage is very crucial. Women have a unique power. She can transform the lives of people around her, making her more responsible and dutiful.
Atharva Veda shares some of the duties that a wife should perform.
- The Lover: A wife should give unconditional love to her husband both emotionally and physically. “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” keep a check, ladies
- The Advisor: A wife is the most trusted advisor to support or critique her husband, but she is also the one whose backing matters the most to him. Whenever the husband seeks help, she should be proactive in supporting him and working together.
- Growth in harmony:
The wife’s complete success is not just personal, but the overall development and growth of her family.
- Compassion & Dedication: A wife’s dedication to her husband is as important as his dedication to her. She should also be compassionate towards his family.
- The Motivation: She should always have a positive attitude and should be concerned about the happiness of her family. She should not let the negative vibes affect the peaceful environment of the house.
- The Nourisher: A wife can change the House into a home with her love and warmth. She is looked up to, for hope and strength.
Duties of the Hubby
Like the duties of a wife, the husband also has to perform his side of duties for a healthy marriage. Atharva Veda shares some of the duties that a husband should perform :
- The Protector: The husband should protect his family. Towards his wife and other members, he should be sensitive, caring and understanding.
- Work-Life Balance: The husband should lead a disciplined life and have a work-life balance. The husband’s financial stability secures the family’s future, but his presence at home is equally important for the family.
- Respect and Honor: He should always give her the required respect and honor, and cherish her companionship. The wife’s family should also be equally treated with respect.
- Partners in Sickness and in Health: He should always stand by his wife in times of sorrow and difficult situations.
- No secrets: Transparency is the key to a healthy relationship between partners.
“Only friendships blossom into lifetime partnerships.“
Marriage is not a piece of cake. All relationships go through rough patches. But the willingness to fight for the relationship rather than fighting about the relationship make the difference.
Love is the true nature of each and every soul in the universe. Patience, love, understanding and friendship are the pillars for a successful and healthy marriage.

Part 4 of an 6 part series. See other articles below.
We all long for relationships and connection; emotional, psychological and sexual. Life would probably be much less painful if this were not true but it would also be much less full of beauty and joy.
Think about some of the greatest moments of happiness and pain in your life; I’m sure most of them centered around relationships and your connection to someone else. A new love was found, a cherished family member passed away, or a new friendship was developed. These new, cherished, or lost connections are what make up the stuff of life. Yet this thing that we spend the majority of our time, heart and energy focusing on – a relationship- is something we are in the dark about, not sure how to navigate, compromise, change, or figure out our roles within. We all have questions about how to work out these all-important connections.
Tell me about how you and your partner discuss gender norms?
Mostly, there aren’t many differences between people who are in straight relationships and those in LGTBQ ones. We all want to feel known, understood and loved – gay and straight. But interviewing people on the subject of relationships, one major difference began to arise — how roles and responsibilities are negotiated and decided upon.
In these interviews, I began to see a sort of freedom those in the LGBTQ community had when it came to roles. What I mean is things like household jobs, who brings home the money and who takes care of the kids is not assumed based on gender. How do people in same-sex relationships navigate who does what without gender roles? It’s based on natural ability, talent and interest. Now, of course not all heterosexual couples are strapped to the idea that men work and bring home the money and women stay home, but it takes more energy and conversation to navigate for straight couples to work out their lives outside of traditional roles.
Those I interviewed who were once in heterosexual relationships experienced this shift as a freedom and felt grateful to have more choices. There were plenty of heterosexual couples navigating roles of who does what outside of the traditional ways of doing things, but it felt “more complicated.” It took more internal energy to fight against what these expectations meant for them as individuals. Men who wanted to stay home with the children had to fight against their own feelings of “not being enough of a man” as well as familial and communal expectations of them. How do I explain to my dad who worked 65 hours a week to provide for my brother and I that I now want to stay home with my kids so that my wife can work? Those who did not want to fall into the traditional roles said that sometimes it just made more sense; for instance the strong, competent female who had to fight the thought that she was “less than” every time she cleaned the bathroom. It seemed to take much more courage to live outside of the bounds of traditional roles for those in heterosexual relationships.
Yet, the amount of satisfaction found with both those in heterosexual and same-sex relationships was above – by leaps and bounds – those who at least got to consider and choose how they wanted to navigate roles. There are plenty of women who stay home with the kids and men who go off to work everyday who are deeply satisfied, but more so when they get to make a conscious decision and decided as a family what is best.
How’s your sex life?
So what about sexual desire in light of all of this? I always say it must be a cosmic joke that in most romantic relationships, both people don’t usually want to have sex at the same time. It’s mostly one person perusing the other and the perused person determining if they could “get in the mood” in order to have sex, or if they feel like simply “giving” to their partner.
As a therapist, this answer has been simple enough to give but not always easy to live out. I like to say, “You can only go as fast as the slowest person wants to/can go.” If a wife wants to have sex three times a week, but her husband only wants to once a week, the relationship has to defer to the one who only wants it once a week. This does not mean the couple should only have sex once a week and the wife is doomed to feel unsatisfied for the rest of their marriage. For people in committed relationships, it should be about giving to the other person, both the one with less sex drive and the more. The person who wants more sex should follow the lead of the person who doesn’t want it and the person who doesn’t want it as often should stretch themselves as much as they are able in order to give to their spouse. This way, both people are giving and stretching on behalf of the other. This does not give the slowest person the right to hold that over the other person’s head. See I told you, even our therapist says I’m right and we only have to have sex once a month! In fact, while the slower person might feel relief that they no longer have to feel so much pressure, there is something they have to come to terms with. Not only is stretching and working on increasing their sexual drive a way to show that they love their partner, it’s also a way of strengthening their relationship.
One major thing that can be hard for this person to come to terms with is that their partner, the one with the higher sex drive still needs a sexual release even outside of those times of mutual intimacy and pleasure. The partner who wants sex less has to be okay with and even support their spouse finding other places of release. This usually means masturbation. Can you imagine your spouse saying “We are only going to have sex once a week” if you could easily have sex four times a week? Typically, the once-a-week partner gets angry with their four-times-a-week partner when they find out they’ve been masturbating to supplement, and I think that is just plain unfair.
It’s important to know and to understand that there are important messages in the way we negotiation and live out our sexual relationships. Our sexual relationship with our partners reflects internal dynamics that are at play within your life and relationships that you might not be aware of. Take a look at the sexual dynamics at play in your relationship, see if you can tease them out and ask yourself if you can see them anywhere else in your relationship. It’s like holding up a huge mirror.
With those I interviewed, I assumed I’d hear the same thing reflected back to me that I believe about how to work out the differences that occur in sexual desire. But there were a few people that surprised me who come from a conservative faith background. These people spoke to a traditional way of believing. They were taught that you are “supposed” to have sex as much as your husband wants. It didn’t matter if it was more or less than the wife; the husband was the pace setter as to how often sex was going to be had. It was seen as the wife’s “duty.” She mandated by God to sexually please the man and keep him happy because if a wife doesn’t keep her man happy, he will leave or cheat, and it will be her fault. Not only will it be “her fault,” God will not bless her as a Godly wife. What a complete distortion of what God calls us to – women as much as men.
This way of living does not acknowledge both partners are valued and valuable, equal partners to be cherished. It puts the wife in a role of being owned and objectified by her husband and the man into the role of isolated objectifier. It’s a set-up for neither person to live from a place of truly giving of themselves, or receiving from their spouse, and a truly sad predicament.
What all of these findings and thoughts point to is a need for us as people to be willing to risk and begin communicating with those we’ve partnered ourselves to?
Take the time to really think about how you want to live out your roles and contribute to your family and begin talking about it. The freedom you end up finding in allowing yourself to live more fully into your desire and natural ability will make your relationship feel fresh and new and being about a greater level of satisfaction than felt before.
When it comes to sexual desire, the foundation is being true to oneself while giving to the other person at the same time. The balance isn’t always easy to find, but when you do, it creates a happiness and contentment within romantic relationships that can’t be matched.

from the previous post. So, as the title explains I have an update.
My hunny and I have been talking about getting married for the past couple of months and going to look at rings. While I thought we would get hitched sooner or later I didn't expect him to have already bought a ring (which I adore and he had custom made). He proposed on thursday night, he made a candle light dinner and as we ate he asked if i wanted my Christmas gift, me being the impatient person that I am said yes, and then he got down on one knee and popped the question......and then I screamed YES!!!
We've been together for about 3 years and I'm so happy that i will get to share the rest of my life with a wonderful man of God who just wants to spread Jesus and strive to do what is right. I love him very very much!
(I tired to post a pic of the ring, but blogger was acting up and wouldn't let me.)

Men s Divorce Secrets
Thankfully I experienced began to attend Al-Anon meetings and was gradually finding the nature of my wrongs, my character flaws, the awareness of my part in things, that I wasn't a target and how I experienced to keep the concentrate on myself and my own recovery.
Jennie Garth starred on nineties pop tradition phenomenon, "Beverly Hills: 90210". Peter Facinelli presently stars as Carlisle Cullen in the "Twilight" film saga. The few has not yet finalized their divorce.
The second that you give up hope on your spouse or your relationship is the moment that you will truly and really be operating towards yourself. As quickly as you give up, you might as nicely sign the il divorce papers.
A lot of women are more conventional than men and they believe that it's all about the guy putting divorce lawyers the work into the relationship and that's it. Not in this contemporary day and age, sister. You save your relationship if you're causing the difficulty.
Lawyers are able to be a savior when a person requirements it the most. This is because of to numerous occasions a person will in one way or another. These cases are numerous times a very hard thing for a person to deal with. These individuals need to be in a position to really feel comfortable that their situation will be dealt with and that they will get the outcomes tat they are looking for out.
On one hand that's great. It means you've developed, and generally a married individual needs to be in a caring, nurturing marriage to grow. On the other hand it's all as well simple to grow in this kind of a way that we really feel a little bit isolated from our partner, as if they don't know a particular part of us that we may like to maintain private.
The type of attorney that you require, will be an important aspect that you require to make sure divorce lawyers that you consider the type of lawyer that you require for the situation that you are presently dealing with. It is a great attorney that will be able to give a individual the piece of thoughts in knowing that their situation is becoming dealt with by a expert. This can be of great reduction to a individual.
Starrett's estranged wife is divorcing him and he needs to make a journey to Florida to signal the il divorce papers. When he comes at her home, rather of finding his wife and their baby, he finds the physique of a lady who has been killed, and it's not his wife Mary Lou.
I Believe It's Always Possible To Make Your Relationship Work. But It Gets to be More Likely When You Have A Extremely Deliberate Plan That You Have Out With Determination: I have to say that I listen to from many ladies who want to make their marriages function. But not all of them are prepared to arrive up with a strategy and have it out. Numerous just hope that their husband will change his mind or that fate will by some means intervene to make things function out. And I'm not saying that these issues never happen. They can. But statistically talking, the wives who are in a position to make their troubled marriages work when their husband is no longer invested generally take very calculated actions and continued attempts to flip issues about.
Handling your personal case would take a great deal of time and power-Handling a divorce situation takes a lot of difficult function. You have to prepare papers, file them with the courts, push the court to move ahead with your situation, make appearances at court dates, negotiate the specificities of issues like home division, kid assistance, and alimony, and see your situation via to completion. Most people just don't have the time, energy, or patience to deal with this on their personal.
I imply, perhaps your partner is threatening divorce to wake you up to how bad things have got for them. Maybe your spouse doesn't mean any of it. But what if your spouse is severe and they are one stage absent from consulting a lawyer to start divorcing you? Don't operate the risk of it being too late. You should start taking the correct steps to conserve your relationship and you should begin today if you don't want to finish up alone in a couple of months time.
It is out of need and practicality that partners make this choice, as money does not go much these days. If you have two or much more kids you are in for a very expensive time. Add to this a mortgage and some debt and you have a great deal to worry about when the il divorce papers are signed.
Unlike few a long time back again when walking out of divorce was a sin and no 1 dared to even believe about it, issues have changed a lot today. Today when two individuals can't get alongside with every other due to any purpose they initial look for for divorce attorneys to get out of their relationship bond.
Beside compromises, relationship is also about commitment. as soon as you have signed the relationship agreement, there is no way back again. Relationship is not like an item that you just toss absent when you get exhausted of it. Marriage is meant to last for a entire lifestyle.

My husband, Rod, is my better half. Overall he is a pretty cool dude. I am very lucky to of found him. It took a few times in life, for both of us, to find each other. The good news is, we both knew what we were looking for. That’s what makes us a good team.
Rod and I were married on Valentine’s Day back in ’98. Jokingly, he claims that getting married on that day won’t let us forget our Anniversary. I say it’s so he only has to remember one present. But truth be told, it gives me a break on the gifts also. But as any long-term married couples know, the gifts wane and just having a good day with each other is worth its weight in gold.
Rod came with two girls and I came with two boys. Now we have a wonderful blended family. All the kids are grown now, and only one left in college. There are a couple of son-in-laws, a potential daughter-in-law and three grandchildren. We have truly been blessed.
Together, Rod and I have discovered festivals. It’s now “our thing”.
The state of Delaware has so many festivals that some weekends we have a hard time deciding which one to attend. Our adventures also carry us out-of-state to a few festivals we attend every year.
I can honestly say that neither one of us ever thought we would become “those people”, festival people. But we enjoy the time exploring, together.
I call Rod my better half because he has the humor and quick wit in our team. His humor was what attracted me to him. He works hard for the family. And, I know I can count on him. Our team has been strong for many years and I only look forward to many more years to come.


I do love Friday's limited supplies challenge over on SCS! It helps keep me focused on the balance of each element in my designs. My art has to be pondered as each piece has meaning and is just a part of the whole story. This remembrance card illustrates this well, I think! I wanted to remind a dear co-worker that I had not forgotten the homegoing of her DH two years ago. They were high school sweethearts and grew up together. He adored her and their children and in time, grandchildren. The love between them and through their family is greatly evident in the care and daily contact the grown children have with their mother and amongst themselves. A picture of love in action. I wanted my card to celebrate this.
So I tucked the hearts around the sentiment, like a snuggle...the biggest heart for my friend and then 4 smaller hearts to represent the children. Each one different from the other. I added faux stitching...sort of binding up those hearts together. Of course over the years those children followed in their parents footsteps and married, blessing them with grandchildren...but then that's a whole 'nother story!
I am so fortunate to watch the love and care this family has for one another and it reminds me that truly our families, along with our health is, indeed, our greatest wealth. Love on yours today!
Thanks for spending some moments with me this Friday.


Relationships are definitely not what I thought they would be. I did not exactly have one whole idea of a definition of a relationship because things just aren’t that simple but rather many small bits of how things would be. Most ideas tend to come from what we know, what we think we know, what’s familiar, and what we have witnessed or learned. The same thing can be applied to one’s idea of a man. A girl I know once informed me that she wants a man like her father. I found this to be a rather silly comment. Men don’t want girls like their mothers or grandmothers. One wouldn’t say I want a man like my uncle because that’s just creepy. I think if you get a man like your father it would be confusing as hell and may just set up a false sense of security. That’s not to say that men can’t be trusted, but I just found it rather fascinating.

Couples that grind together. Shine together!
Have you ever wanted to be with someone who has the same goals as you? Somebody who’s willing to go above and beyond to support your dreams as much as you would for them? Or what about someone who’s just as ambitious as you are and loves to build to make it to the top together? We all would definitely want something like that or maybe there are even some of you who have that right now. Having somebody by your side who’s ambitious and ready to work hard when it comes to each other’s goals and dreams is exactly what you need, it’s exactly what you want. Just having that significant other by your side that pushes you to do better and makes you bounce back when times get rough is one of my greatest things/feelings you could ever ask for in a relationship. Why have someone around who’s not willing to do any of that or somebody who doesn’t see your full potential in being what you truly want to be? These are all questions we have to remind ourselves each and everyday. To be ambitious together means to fight together, understanding that you are each other’s craft and will only rise to the top if you support one another with everything within you. There will be days where you will feel like giving up, there will even be days where you may fail, but nothing truly feels better than to have someone by your side who is just as ambitious as you are to let you know that you’ll be okay or you’re going to do great. Being a team within a relationship is what really builds an empire and what really builds the relationship stronger towards success. So if being together means supporting one another when it comes each other’s dreams, why not style out ambitiously together also? Grandslammers will have you feeling refreshed, successful and inspired to do so much more with yourself and that lucky significant other. With these new crew necks, you and your loved one can rock them together and show the world that being successful together is very important. With a few new colors in these crew necks, get yours now and understand that the movement toward being ambitious with this brand is something everyone looks forward to!


That's not to say that I feel like we've been muddling along accomplishing nothing for the last ten months. We've made great leaps in soothing his anxiety. It's just that a good relationship with a dog, particularly a dog with "issues," takes time. There's no way around that. I'm just glad it didn't take eighteen months to get to like it did with Rubi.
Part of this relationship is just getting to know each other. Now, when I take Jai into new situations, I'm pretty confident about how he'll behave. This week, we had three outing that went exactly as I'd planned. The first was to my aunt's house where Jai didn't run and hide from my uncles even once (he did that on his first trip there, I was very sad for him). He was also the perfect gentleman when my aunt's little dog tried to eat his face, another non-surprise for me.
Our second field trip was out to our friend Rachel's house for a play date with her girl, Greta. Greta was more interested in my treats than in Jai, and Jai was more interested in peeing on everything in Rachel's backyard than in Jai, but nothing even mildly interesting happened. Jai didn't pace the fence or whine or get anxious at all. And I was not surprised. I knew him, and I knew what he was likely to do. It's nice to know that even if we're not always on the same page, at least we're reading the same book.
|Jai and Greta. |
I want to make an award for cutest couple, just so I can give it to them.
Lastly, Jai and I crashed Sunday's Rott'n'Pit Ed. Classes were temporarily moved to a new building, and I'm still working on remedial socialization with him, so I jumped on the chance to expose him to a new place. With new dogs. Lots of new dogs, as it turned out - there were twenty or so boarding dogs there, plus the dogs going in and out for class. We planted ourselves in the entry way and practiced watching everyone come and go. I snagged a few pictures, and looking through them, the difference between who Jai was and who he is now - well, see for yourself.
And here he is on Sunday:
Not really relaxed, but I have to say, I like the new "working dog" look.
He wants to hang out with me when he's bored, he looks to me for instruction when he's worried, and he wants to play with me when he wants to have a good time. But relationship goes two ways, out and in. It was no surprise to anyone that I decided to keep Jai. But there's a difference between keeping a dog and being utterly smitten with him. I love Jai. I love that he's so sensitive and curious about the world around him. I love how resilient he is, how hard he struggles and how hugely he succeeds. How he still wants to be with me even when I'm cranky or miserable or doing nothing at all. How I get all giggly and giddy when I talk about him or see him first thing in the morning or after a long day at work, like a sixteen year old with a crush.
Dude! He's SO hawt!!!

Adriana Lima and Marko Jaric have called it quits.
The Victoria’s Secret model, 32, and the former NBA star, 35, ended their five-year marriage and released a joint statement to People Magazine.
“After long and careful consideration, we have decided to separate after five years of marriage,” the statement read. “We are grateful to be the parents of two incredibly young daughters that we will continue to co-parent. We would greatly appreciate your respect for our family’s privacy as we begin this delicate next chapter for all members of our family.”
The Brazilian beauty and basketball player met at a party in Los Angeles in 2006 and got engaged two years later. They eloped on Valentine’s Day in 2009 in a private civil ceremony in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
“I never saw myself being married. But after I met him, everything changed,” Lima told People shortly after they married. “I knew he was the one and I could see myself married with him and with a big family.
The couple has two daughters Valentina, 4, and Sienna, 19 months.
The split comes eight months after fellow Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr and actor Orlando Bloom announced their separation after three years of marriage.

As promised: Documents you will need to get married to a foreigner in Egypt
15 December 2010 § Leave a comment
The requirements for the Egyptian citizen will remain the same regardless of whether they are male or female. The requirements for the foreign partner in the marriage will probably differ according to the requirements of their consulate/embassy in Egypt. Nonetheless, as of April 2010 these were the documents needed to for me (the Egyptian citizen) to get married to him (the British citizen) as obtained from Ministry of Justice where the civil marriage ceremony (katb kitab) will be performed:
2) Two witnesses (they both must be Muslim males with a valid Civil ID)
For the Egyptian citizen
1) National ID number
For the Farangi (British)
* This is the response PG received from the British Consulate in Egypt when he contacted them regarding this certificate:
In order to get married in Egypt you will need to come to the British Embassy with your partner and to provide us with the following documents:
- Your valid British passport
- A divorce certificate ( for all previous marriages if applicable )
- Your partner’s valid Egyptian passport.
- You partner’s national ID card.
- Your partner’s divorce certificate ( for all previous marriages if applicable ).We will issue you a certificate of NO Impediment to get married.We issue this certificate only on Wednesdays, so you will need to come and applyfor it any day before and it costs LE850.
** If your foreign partner is a convert like mine is, then his/her conversion certificate is proof enough of their religion. Otherwise, I am not sure what other document one would provide as proof of religion.

Do you want to hold your friend because her relationship is now experiencing a major crisis? If you know that she herself with her boyfriend is not able to find the mistakes that their relationship has. Find out the date of birth of your friend and her partner, use the horoscopes of love you write this data into. And the answer that you'll be asked to forward, and see how much you can help her. There he learns all about his relationship, shows her what their relationship is amazing, and where there are differences between these two signs, when they are corrected, to see if their relationship is true meaning or not.
Time for change?
Tired of sitting on the TV alone with a bowl of popcorn in your hand every night? Be glad that you thought about it in time and that you decided to do something about it. If it doesn't work what you have, it's probably something wrong and it's good to change it! If you are alone, it will be enough to find the reason why it is, change it, and then the word alone will surely seem alien to you.

In these modern days, everything develops. And presently people do what was impossible previously. It is obvious that the dating sites for singles are utilized for picking true love. On top of that, the dating sites have differing pluses. On the other hand, not all the people would like to have serious relationships. On occasion, some of them would like to have the date hookup.


Your early interactions left you with a deep impression of the nature of relationships. Bowlby called this impression an ‘internal working model’ of attachment. It contains beliefs and expectations related to:
- Your sense of self (whether you believe you are worthy of love and attention, whether you can tolerate solitude and whether you believe you are capable of reaching for help when needed).
- Other people and how they are likely to respond to you (how confident you are that they will be responsive, warm, attentive, sensitive, dependable and helpful, or whether you expect them to be over-involved, angry, shaming, dismissive, abusive, neglectful or emotionally absent).
- The nature of relationships (how to communicate within them, whether you expect crises are likely to get resolved etc).

Who are you?
Who’s yo mama and daddy?
What’s your clan?
Are you ready to live with this girl and your future child(ren)?
Will you leave this girl?
Can you promise?
Can you…even just love this one and no other?
Will you betray her?
Why is your ‘population’ has bad habit like this?
Why woman can love just one and be loyal, but man can’t and be bastard
The hell you are…
For them, love is not exist
The most important is ‘blood’
No matter how ‘poor’ he is, or at least how mature he is, it’s not really important
It’s not necessary thing that should questioned
Because like what I said.. the most imortant is and always about blood
Love means nothin for them

Ephesians 5:29-33 New International Version (NIV)
29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body. 31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”[a] 32 This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
Ephesians 5:31 Gen. 2:24
The Apostle Paul likens the relationship between a husband and his wife to that between Jesus Christ and Christians.
He shows how deeply a husband and wife should be committed to one another and love honour and care for one another.
May God bless our marriages. Pray for young people preparing for marriage that they would truly understand the meaning of marriage.

29 Maana hakuna mtu anayeuchukia mwili wake po pote; bali huulisha na kuutunza, kama Kristo naye anavyolitendea Kanisa.
30 Kwa kuwa tu viungo vya mwili wake.
31 Kwa sababu hiyo mtu atamwacha baba yake na mama yake, ataambatana na mkewe na hao wawili watakuwa mwili mmoja.
32 Siri hiyo ni kubwa; ila mimi nanena habari ya Kristo na Kanisa.
33 Lakini kila mtu ampende mke wake kama nafsi yake mwenyewe; wala mke asikose kumstahi mumewe.
Mtume Paulo analinganisha uhusiano katika mume na mke na ile katika Yesu Kristo na Wakristo. Mume na Mke wanapaswa kujitoa kila mtu kwa mwenzake na kupendana, kutunzana na kuheshimiana.
Mungu abariki ndoa zetu. Tuombee vijana ambao wanajiandaa kuoana ili waelewe kweli maana ya ndoa.


It can be difficult to know what to say to a family member or friend who is going through cancer. You want to express your love and support, but finding the right words isn’t easy. Here are some things you can say that will show you care:
“I am here for you.”
“Can I help you with cooking, babysitting, walking the dog, etc.?” – Listen to what they say and then follow through and do it.
“I’m thinking about you.”
“I’m sorry you have to go through this.”
“I care about you.”
“I love you.”
“Are you up to having visitors?”
“This must be a hard thing to go through.”
“How are you feeling?”
“I would like to help in any way I can.”
If you don’t know what to say, be honest and tell them that. Your loved one will appreciate that you are reaching out to them. The worst thing you can say is nothing at all.
Here are some other dos and don’ts to keep in mind.
Each person’s cancer experience is different so there aren’t any one-size-fits-all words to say. The most important thing to remember is to focus on the person and not your own feelings. Showing compassion, kindness and support can go a long way toward helping your loved one navigate their journey.


In honor of it, I'm posting a copy of the text of an Egyptian Love Poem. I first heard it from Phillip Glass's Akhnaten
from Journal of Egyptian Archeology,
translated by Sir Alan Gardiner)
I breathe the sweet breath
that issues from thy mouth.
I behold thy beauty every day.
It is my desire to be rejuvenated with life
through love of thee.
Give me thy hands, holding thy spirit,
that I may receive it and partake of it.
Call thou my name unto eternity, and it shall never fail.
Of course, I remember the words a little differently. I think the breath should issue from lips instead of a mouth. Also, the French translation (included in the CD's libreto) "call thou my name" uses the word "vocci", which could be translated to "give voice to my name" or "invoke my name."
In slightly related news, Arthur has discovered the word "too." Lately, he's noticed my rings; he seems particularly enamoured with my wedding ring, and says, "Arthur wants a wedding ring, too."
When I tell him that he has to get married to someone to wear a wedding ring and ask him who he's going to marry, he scrunches up his face and says, "Hmmmm.... thinking...." His most surreal wedding partner to date has been "his head."


In a Jabiru community each child knows that people around them see only the best in them and want only the best for them, in a deeply caring way. We do really love what we do and we love children. So we allow ourselves to show, through the careful safe ways that we communicate and work, our positive affirming emotional connections with children.
We know a community is loving by the ways that it takes care to create the space for the activity of love. Like taking the time to see and acknowledge the best in each other, taking delight in the happiness and well-being of others and seeing that our eyes light up with happiness we greet each other. It includes finding opportunities to surprise each other with unexpected acts of generosity and kindness. It includes making and acting on hard decisions that are in the long term best interests of each other.
Of course it is also important to also say that we take enormous care with the professional boundary of this kind of loving community and relationship with children. No action by any adult crossing that boundary in any way that imposes on a child’s feelings of safety and privacy, or harms a child in any way, will be tolerated under any circumstance.


The girls sit at the tables and receive beiges with names and numbers. Men change tables every five-ten minutes after a bell speed dating. In this time people should know each other better and understand if they want to meet again.This way in one evening every participant of the speed date meets with fifteen twenty people. No one is going to be attracted to someone drunk sitting opposite them. Plus you need to be quick with your questions and answers. This won't happen if you've had too much to drink.These speed dating tips will help guide you to more success in your 3 to 8 minutes of dating. That's all the time you have to impress the person sitting opposite you. And if you can't keep them occupied for that amount of time speed dating, and make them stay interested in you then you have no chance of them picking you afterwards. When you live in DC you can always be a tourist because there is so many breathtaking historical sites to visit. Some of the dates I've been on through Speed Dating Washington DC were so fun. I always suggest that my first date with a new man be a sightseeing adventure. But everyone is different. Some prefer a romantic dinner, or meeting at a coffee house. All I can say is don't give up after the first event speed dating. You never know whom you'll eventually click with. It's always good to know upfront if a potential partner has any children. Or brush up on topics that the opposite sex are interested in, and you should keep them happy. The women could learn a bit about their national sport, and put the men to shame. If you can ask a question he stumbles on it should raise a smile, and put some humor into the conversation.


Language barrier wasn’t an issue, we both stumbled through each other’s native tongues, you obviously more fluent than I. My incessant stream of questions didn’t seem to bother you, or if it did you were too polite to show it. In those few days, I learned so much about you, I was fascinated by your point of view, so different from mine. After the train had whisked you away, we kept talking online, I wanted to know about you and your thoughts.
Across thousands of miles of ocean, helped by the magic of the internet, I asked you if you wanted to date. You did. Then it happened. One week in, you told me you loved me. I knew you didn’t mean it like that. But those three words, they were so much more significant in my culture, especially if they come from the person you’re dating. Everything felt so serious.
I realized that even though we could communicate on the surface, there were cultural nuances which were too different for me to wade through. I told you I needed space, you told me you understood. We drifted apart.
Now, I still ask you a question every once in a while, am still curious as to your view of the world, but the line is clear. I couldn’t cross the barrier of subconscious influence of my culture and society.
This was actually a very nice read! (and also part of something that I feel before)
Thanks for sharing!

Although we crossed paths many times, we never really became
friends. We'd say what's up, talk whenever we ran into each other, but
never hung out. We went to
the same schools, rode the same buses, even dated the same girl 5 houses down.
I regret not getting to know him better. I
realized how much we had in common in late 2008, and we started talking about
projects we could work on together. From
there we started making plans, but none came to be.
I knew him for a good 15 years, but never knew him the way his friends and family knew him.
I feel as if great things could have came out of that friendship.
In the recent years, I've had family members, friends I've
known all my life, die. But for some reason, when Mike left, I felt the heaviest
sadness I've felt of all. For
what could have become, for what I let go to waste, and for letting him down, all those years.
So this is my way of showing you Mike. I see you man. You were a good dude. You won't be forgotten.

A pathetic specimen? Is that what we think when we think of Elliot? Mickey certainly believes so: he is awkward and socially nervous, like me, he says to Hannah when he visits his ex-wife and their adopted kids.
Should we pity Elliot? Feel sorry for someone who stumbles through life; too weak to control his emotions, and who lusts after a woman he knows is forbidden – there is, we are sure, the spice of taboo, of transgression, in his desire; another sign of his emotional poverty.
Are we meant to feel sorry for him? At most pitying his gaucheries and the pain his sexual dilemmas cause. Understanding his fall into irritation and anger; accepting that, innocent in the ways of a Don Juan, he cannot cope with the situation which he has created. A poor specimen indeed; more victim than moral crook. Is that what we are supposed to think?


We at MikesStogies want to take this time to say Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. All the guys here hope that you enjoy the day with your family and give thanks to all who give us the opportunity to enjoy the things in life we love.

To all the fans thank you from the bottom of my heart and after dinner lend a hand cleaning then sit back and Enjoy your Smokes.
Happy Thanksgiving to All.

Limitless love swivels into my passions
As I sing with the birds sailing across the sky
Let my smile stitch the sorrow to my heaven
Let my tears reflect my joy way too high.....
As we weep along the jocund streets of life
We pause for a moment in a stinking alley
And we kiss each other on the edge of a knife
Until we let our woes teeter..
Until we let our passions fly...

- This event has passed.
March 21 - March 22$40.
Spend time together in a safe place listening to Cliff and Sabra discuss how to live in unity with one another. After each talk, there is a time to discuss as a couple (one on one) how to implement the principles. All marriages can gain from further focus on their marriage. You will laugh maybe cry a little but surely have time to spend together.


Things have been a little heavy in my world lately. Stresses have been adding up at an alarming speed.
I’ve been spending more time with God, trying to find peace amidst the madness.
Here is what He has been showing me.
It took a miracle for me to have a relationship with God.
Actually, it took a lot of miracles.
The virgin conceiving and giving birth.
The miracles he performed in those short decades on earth.
The miracle of a sinless Jesus showing is how to live.
The miracle of his sacrifice on that cross.
And here I sit, wondering if I’m worthy. Or if I can somehow lose his love.
I’ve had conversations with friends, who have been certain that they can’t deserve that forgiveness. Or have never experienced unconditional love.
Jesus died on that cross, knowing that one day, we would be here. That we would still sin.
And he willingly sacrificed his body, his life, for us anyways.
He gave us the miracle of a relationship with God. He wanted us to know the love of the Father.
What are we doing with that chance?
Heavenly Father, thank you so much for sacrificing your one and only Son for someone as deeply flawed as me. Thank you for loving me without condition. I pray that you would open my eyes to the opportunities around me to show your love to others. In faith I pray. Amen.


Respectful connecting and communicating is making a comeback. The once considered old-fashioned way of joining our energy, and meeting one another with reverence, is now the exquisite way to be. Feeling a little bored with the lack of true, intimate and respectful connection?- me too. For this reason, a re-emergence of compassionate human relations through the heart, mind and body is a must.
Due to fear-driven health politics, elements of interpersonal relating– from the common handshake to the respectful kiss on the cheek or hand, have become minimal. Human beings are most alive when they touch each other- emotionally and physically. We are not meant to be sterile machines trapped behind a mask within a fearful mind and world. No, we are meant to meet each other in the heart and to touch each other with respect and adoration.
What is Respectful Connecting in Relationships?
One could say that relationships become respectful when we first become respectful with ourselves. The mirror from our innerness is reflected out into the world that only appears to be surrounding us.
A healthy mind- filled with uplifting thoughts and combined with balanced emotions, contributes to harmonious relationships. With this mindset and energy, we tend to attract those of a similar nature.
Clear communication, understanding, and honesty are essential pillars for the foundation of respectful relating. The connection must be mutual, and with sincerity, leads to trust. This form of relating creates an uplifting and supportive experience for those in the relationship.
Elemental Examples of Respectful Connecting between Lovers and Friends:
- No Hierarchy.
- The engagement brings upliftment, support and energy.
- Inter-connectedness exists.
- Unity and equality are embodied within the relationship of unique individuals.
- There is harmony and balance in the connection.
- Because of resonance, the relationship was formed and exists. Resonance is to be maintained.
- Mutual respect, trust and a nurturance of each other.
- There is an intrinsic relationship between the two; e.g. Share/Receive, Complementary balancing.
- No egoistic rationale for the connection.
- Soul-depth is present.
Why is Respect Essential and Important?
Relationships grounded in respectfulness, are absolutely essential for our emotional and physical health. When we are balanced within ourselves, and are in-tune with who we are on the inside, everything on the outside flourishes. Thus, practices for self-care and self-love are essential in being caring and loving towards others. Often, it is this very relationship to one’s Self that is the only limitation to Soulful fusion with others.
Through respect we create environments for our relationships where each person feels safe and supported. Respect is essential for the other to feel safe, cared for and secure in the building of the relationship. Furthermore, your respect towards another, encourages them to be respectful to you as well as themselves. We can then extend this respect from our relationship out into society and our world at large.
The Consequences of not Creating Respectful Relationships
Being able to be alone, and enjoy it, is essential. To be fully in balance with one’s Self is a part of that yin and yang equation to be in healthy relationship with others too. When one of these aspects is missing, often a large part within someone can feel unfulfilled. We fulfill others and they too fulfill us. That being said, it is when we feel connected to ourselves that we too can feel so deeply connected with another.
Loneliness can occur when a person is completely alone, as is most common, yet as well when with a significant other and friends. When this transpires, the person is not connected with their inner Self, their heart and Soul. There can be many reasons for this and one can be not knowing one’s Self. Once you know yourself, stay true to that Self.
Lack of caring and respectful connections can lead to health challenges as well as depressive and even suicidal thoughts. While some people enjoy more alone time than others, relating and connecting with others is essential for healthy living. Building respectful connections means that we are building lifelong relationships that sustain life.
What is Non-Beneficial Emotional Fusion?
Non-beneficial, emotional fusion with another can only exist when you are not embodied in your wholeness as a unique individual. There is a difference between healthy emotional, physical and soulful spiritual connection and losing your groundedness in who you are as a unique Sovereign.
People who do not have a strong sense of Self often rely on fusing their relationships as a way to develop a sense of identity. Because of the unconscious form of this style of relating, the relationship can often navigate away from respect and towards dependency in its unhealthiest form.
Thus, it is absolutely fundamental to know yourself, understand who you are and to be at peace with being on your own before creating a conscious connection with another person.
Continue to develop and be your unique Self. It will be very rewarding for both you and your relationship.
How to stay Sovereign in Healthy Relating
True autonomy can become the basis for deep and passionate love. Our interconnectedness is invaluable as well as essential. However, this must be done in a way that does not impede upon our Sovereign essence. It is an absolute must to maintain our own unique thoughts and feelings in life as this is a reflection of who we are in the ocean of humanity. The relationship becomes enriched through your different flavors and the world becomes enlivened.
Know that your individual needs and choices are just as important as those in your joint relationship. Putting your needs first is not selfish when done in a communicative way that embodies skillful love. You will then be able to witness the same in your partner. When you each choose to live in a way that honors each other’s individuality, it makes the connection more intriguing and gives it depth. You can continue to learn from each other and be excited by the other; versus, falling into a routine pattern that is not fulfilling for either person.
This too is just as important in friendships and platonic relationships. Being Sovereign in a relationship does not interfere with your emotional connection and can in fact enhance it. You can fuse together in a way that allows for individuality and the trust created feels not threatened by individual freedom.
Body and Emotions Talk: Connect with Respect
Soulful fusing involves caring about one another and, thus, engaging each other with sincere respect. Coming from a place of wholeness within, where we also sincerely care for and love ourselves, this becomes natural and effortless. Because you are in a relationship, not out of neediness but out of love, everyone is enhanced. Once you have begun to connect in this way, you will see your life begin to transform and unfold in the most beautiful ways.
From casual to intimate connecting, Soulful relating from the heart and essence of your being becomes a must as you touch infinity through this energetic embrace. You will want all of your connections and relationships to feed you in this way. They need to be caring, compassionate, reliable, respectful and fulfilling. Ideally, we can touch each other in ways that no one else can. This is especially true when we are embodying our uniqueness.
Do things that you find interesting and that bring you joy. Stay in tune with who you are and connect with others from your unique wholeness. The world is more beautiful and interesting when we are embodied as our unique Soul intended. Connect respectfully with others, being true to who you are from the inside out. Transform your life through respectful connecting.

The aim of this study was to explore the degree of correspondence between sexual behaviour in the real world and that on the internet, among seventeen year old Czechs. The adolescents, 237 girls and 225 boys, completed a computer-administered questionnaire which examined sexual behaviour offline and sexual activities on the Internet. Individuals who reported any offline sexual experience tended to engage in online sexual activities more often than those who did not. The use of the Internet for sexual purposes was similar for those who had experienced kissing and/or petting, it then increased, being similar for those who had experienced oral sex and/or sexual intercourse. Findings suggest that the relationship between the gradual extension of sexual experience offline and the gradual extension of using the Internet for sexual purposes is rather weak.
