Have you ever been inspired to love deeper because of a movie?
Love Before Marriage
My husband and I were really great friends for five years before he asked me to try dating. Despite my dire fear of loving my favorite person in the world, I took that step. It was logical for him and a leap of faith for me. Did I already love him? Yes. Was it romantic? No. As he heard my concerns continuing through the first six months of our relationship (filled with adventures, travel, long talks about everything, worship of the Lord together, new music, and most importantly: putting God first), he did everything he could to show me what love really is.
We always want that fairy tale romance, don’t we?! That instant spark, eyes meet across the room, and BAM you’re in love. You can remember the first moment you fell in love. It’s crazy and amazing and full on fairy tale love. That’s what I wanted. Is it realistic? Maybe for some. But is it real? Is fairy tale love real? I looked back on my loves in the past, I loved them deeply, but somewhere along the way, those people forgot to love me back. I still had this idea that fairy tale love was the only real love.
My husband communicated how he feels about love through the music and movies he shared with me. The first movie that ever deeply touched my heart is War Room.
I won’t be doing a War Room Movie review at this time. Here’s what I can say about the movie: It opened my eyes to what I have come to know as REAL love.
Official Synopsis: With great jobs, a beautiful daughter (Alena Pitts) and a dream house, the Jordans seem to have it all. Appearances can be deceiving, however, as husband Tony (T.C. Stallings) flirts with temptation and wife Elizabeth (Priscilla Shirer) becomes increasingly bitter, crumbling under the strain of a failing marriage. Their lives take an unexpected turn for the better when Elizabeth meets her newest client, Miss Clara (Karen Abercrombie), who encourages the couple to find happiness through prayer.
My Quick Note: Originally released in 2015, it got “bad reviews,” yet made $74 million. Alex Kendrick and Stephen Kendrick created something that really hit deep into broken hearts everywhere. This movie touched a lot of people. This woman battled alone through agony, betrayal, and realizing that her husband did not love her back.
So, right off the bat let me say, I’m a total cry baby. Yep, I cry so easily. God has blessed me with a soft heart. However, I honestly cried in nearly every scene of this movie. It moved me beyond anything I ever thought a movie could do for me. She never stopped praying and she never stopped loving him. That’s real. It moved to even think that maybe, what I thought was love before, just wasn’t. I spent five years with my high school sweetheart, eight years with my best friend in my 20s, and then five years with a man who took me by surprise and now I was questioning if I ever truly loved them. They were abusive, manipulative, and yes, often unfaithful. I did love each of those men. Just, it wasn’t true love. It was only as deep as it could go, it wasn’t love to the core.
Do you know why my love had to end for them? Because, I didn’t have God in my life. He is the key to real love. God is Love.
A Fireproof Movie Review will come later. Another movie about feeling your marriage slip away as your spouse shows they no longer love his or her partner.
Official Synopsis: In the wake of his daring rescue of a complete stranger, decorated firefighter Caleb Holt (Kirk Cameron) realizes the extent to which he has failed as a husband. In a desperate attempt to save his relationship with his wife, Catherine (Erin Bethea), Holt turns to “The Love Dare,” a Christian self-help book. At the prompting of his devout father, John (Harris Malcom) — and guided by the book itself — Holt embarks on a 40-day mission to rescue his marriage from the looming specter of divorce.
My Quick Note: A firefighters realizes how much at fault he is that his marriage is dissipating. He turns to The Love Dare. It doesn’t always go well for him. Caleb is essentially asking himself “How can I save my marriage?” maybe even he has looked up 10 ways to save your marriage (I can admit I’ve done it).
As my (now) husband showed me these movies. He did something incredible, he watched me watch the movie. He gave me this depth of love before I even accepted this type of love.
Maybe I should call this the Fireproof Love Dare Challenge or The Love Dare Blog? I found the book when I was traveling. During the first six months of us dating we traveled through 22 states and stumbled upon a thrift store in Alabama. It was called Vapor Thrift Store. I picked up my copy of “The Love Dare” and thought some I’d check out. This is my second time going through the 40 day Love Dare challenge. If you’re asking yourself “Can I save my marriage alone?” the answer is no. This book might not save your marriage, but it will certainly teach you how to love better. By reading the Love Dare Book, my husband was able to open up to me in a way he hadn’t before. Learning to love deeper, better, and stronger was such a huge blessing. Praise God that He led us to this thrift shop and I was able to zone in on it.
The Love Dare Journal
So, here we go. This will be my second time around doing the Love Dare. I can say that there are days that are harder than others. I chose to do the Love Dare the first time because I wanted to become better at loving my husband. The Love Dare this time around is to re-instill its lessons and live it more. Welcome to my Love Dare journal.


Pentru că m-am enervat de prima oară văzând traducerea titlului pe care au făcut-o românii la această carte, respectiv Jurnalul unei iubiri, am decis să o citesc în limba engleză. Așadar recenzia în limba engleză.
Have you ever seen "The notebook"? It's a movie about a impossible love between a rich girl and a poor boy. Sounds like a soap-opera? It isn't. I love Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams! Their kiss in the rain (you don't know it? Youtube-it!) received MTV Best Kiss Award in 2005. I love that scene...it's so heartbreaking and also passionate.
Set in the 1920s in North Carolina, The Notebook tells a story of young love. Noah and Allie fall for each other one summer, but they come from different worlds where their love is forbidden.
After a 14-year separation, Allie sees the newspaper ad of a young man with a house for sale. She decides to visit him, not knowing why he returned. Noah is shocked but pleased by her visit and welcomes her into his house. After they spend a couple days together, their feelings emerge and they must make some difficult decisions.
Author Nicholas Sparks focuses on the themes of love and choices. As Noah tries to regain what he and Allie once had, she struggles with telling him she’s engaged. But she begins to realize that her feelings for Noah never died.
When her trip ends, Allie must decide whom she loves. “Can you really leave without looking back?” Noah asks. “I don’t know. Probably not,” she replies. With tears running down her face she finally chooses.
The Notebook is a classic tale of love lost and regained after many years, and is a truly romantic and touching story. This is an amazing book that captures your attention and keeps you guessing what will happen next. You will never want to put it down.
I'm so crazy about this film that i read the book (The notebook - Nicholas Sparks) and extract quotes.
"I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me this has always been enough".
"We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has happened only once, and that’s why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory".
"You are the answer to every prayer I’ve offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don't know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have."
"I can't live my life happily knowing you're with someone else. That would kill a part of me. What we have is rare. It's too beautiful to just throw it away".
"She wanted something more. Passion and romance, perhaps, or quiet conversations in candlelit rooms, or perhaps something as simple as not being second".

I’d be lost without the weight of you two on my back. I ain’t going anywhere.100 Films in 2011 | 047. Winter’s Bone (Dir. Debra Granik, 2010)
They contemplate the photos. Ashlee arranges her horse on the table in front of her. Ree turns over a small portrait photo of a woman and reads aloud the inscription on the back. “I don’t know how I ever latched on to someone like you, but I sure hope I can keep you interested in me forever. I love you and will always be true.”
You are who I always did think you were, darlin’. You truly are.


Does Mike still rock??
Because he is a romantic.
He loves getting dressed up, though it would be hard to tell when he comes home covered in ….ummm…..nasty stuff. But give him an inch and he will plan a beautiful evening out and request special attire.
“I want you to get dressed up.”
I love him.
He wants me to feel special so the evening is special. Smart man that he is.
He loves a great wedding. He watches chickflicks and his favorite movies, save a couple action flicks, are my favorites too.
He’s the one who lights the candles. He’s the one that writes the notes.
He is wonderful. And HE ROCKS.
What a romantic! How blessed you are. Sounds like a wonderful man. I grew up in MI – BTW.
Oh, you are SO blessed. Your life reminds me of book I read called A Can of Peas. I’m glad to have found your blog!


Look kid… I know you like me, and I’m fine with that. But it’s too soon to date, you know? You’re in middle school and I’m in high school. It’ll be almost impossible to see each other. I know were both out, but so soon? I don’t even know you that well. The only thing we can do is start talking, trying to know each other.
Why are kids/teens trying to find love so quick? Do they even know the true definition of love? All they want to do is date a person they like a lot and automatically start saying “I Love You”. That’s not what dating is. Dating is trying to find what you like in a person and what you don’t like. And don’t even TRY to change them. You’ll only end up hurting yourself in the process. Don’t do these things to yourself. It’s fine that you date someone, but don’t go saying that you love them. Do you really love them? Do they really love you?

Omg is it really you… it’s been so long…
What are you so afraid of!?
I’m REALLY sorry but it looks like they’re about to rap battle
(Source: four-big-idiots, via ruinedchildhood)
This is kind of unexpected, but I want to be honest with you.
And this isn’t meant to freak you out (I hope not) but keeping a secret is too much. I’m just going to be honest.
Ever since I’ve met you, I’ve had some feelings for you. The first time I saw you, It was like my life had a new meaning. A new purpose. I had a feeling I never knew I would have towards you. You were just perfect in my eyes.
I like you a lot CH. And I have a lot of guts telling you this. I would never tell you this. I was afraid to ever tell you because I feel like it would ruin my chance of being good friends with you.
I want to be with you, but were complete opposites of each other and it would never work out between us two. I try so hard not to pay attention to you when you are around. I try so hard to avoid you when you are close by. I try so hard to get your attention… When I am finally able to forget you, somehow I fall for you all over again.
You have no idea how happy you make me.. It’s those little things that you do that make me happy. Your smile, your laugh, your eyes, even saying “hi” to me makes me the happiest person in the world. I act so stupid when I’m around you.
I just want to tell you one last thing before I go. Love has no limits. You and I might not be successful finding true love. But don’t worry, there is at least one person who loves you. And that is.. Me.
Even though I never ended up being with you, at least I was able to meet you and make me happy every time I saw you.

“Don’t be afraid of your fears. They’re not there to scare you. They’re there to let you know that something is worth it.” – C. Joybell
Couples often overthink the idea of making their wedding journey as smooth and as perfect as possible. However, wedding planning isn’t easy. It involves too many details to be attended such as the venue, gowns, foods and more. The process also requires a lot of decision-making, coordination, and execution. Hence, pre-wedding jitters set in.
Pre-wedding jitters are the pressure, stress, and anxiety that brides and grooms often feel before tying the knot. According to wedding coordinators in Manila, pre-wedding jitters are pretty common. It’s normal for couples to strive hard to make their wedding special and seamless. After all, people only get to marry the right person once.
If you’re also feeling all those pressure, stress, and anxiety, here’s what you can do to calm your nerves and ease your wedding planning:
Time management is the key. The longer the preparation, the greater the wedding is.
When you prepare in advance, it gives you more time to fix any unforeseen obstacles. Plus, it reduces stress. Isn’t it that when you are ready, you are also confident? It also saves you time as early preparation reduces wedding errors and prevents re-work. Here’s an example of a wedding planning timeline to help you organize your activities:
Hire a wedding coordinator.
Have someone who you trust completely to handle things on your behalf. This person will monitor the entire process of your wedding (such as finalizing all the details of the wedding day and handling ceremony coordination and decor setup). You can hire a professional wedding coordinator from Manila to be your point person. He/she will keep you organized, guide you through the design process and offer expert advice on proper wedding etiquette. Your coordinator will ensure that everything will go smoothly to make you and your partner feel stress-free.
Be open to your partner.
All final decisions are yours and your partner’s. Make sure to listen and speak about your SO’s ideas. You must spend time reflecting on your wedding choices. After all, weddings are always focused on both bride and groom.
Give yourself a few “wedding-free” days.
Wedding planning can be overwhelming. Relax. Take some time off from wedding planning. Go out of town, spend time with your family or do yoga together. Just enjoy your time with your fiancé. Strengthen your emotional connection with each other to fight anxiety.
Focus on planning your marriage (rather than just your wedding).
Don’t get too caught up with the idea of tying the knot. Your wedding is only the beginning of your lifelong adventure with your loved one. You still have a long way to go. Make your mind wander on the bigger picture. Thinking about your marriage goals can help you reframe what this wedding planning is all about.
As professional wedding coordinators in Manila say, it is important to know how to manage your pre-wedding jitters to ensure that you’ll have a successful wedding. Practice the five (5) ways above to harmonize the pressure, stress, and anxiety with your emotion and expectations.


Love was in the air in Sunderland at the weekend as the Minster took part in a nationwide attempt to set a new world record for couples reaffirming their wedding vows.
The initiative was part of Marriage Week UK, between 7th-14th February, and has been organised by the BIG Promise, an initiative committed to celebrating, supporting and strengthening marriage. Twenty one couples from across the North East took part in the event at the the Minster, which was the only church the region taking part and on Saturday 8th February. Couples were invited to reaffirm their vows before enjoying afternoon tea and light entertainment as they celebrated marriage together. The current world record stands at 1,087 couples. The Revd Fiona Collin, a newly ordained Curate at the Minster, said: “This event offered couples the opportunity to celebrate and share their good news stories. “My husband Neil and I took the opportunity to reaffirm our vows at the service. We have been married for almost 32 years, and to have this opportunity to celebrate and reaffirm our commitment to each other and to God, alongside many of our Sunderland Minster friends seemed perfect timing.” One couple taking part was Graeme & Hollie Jobes, from Ashbrooke in Sunderland. Graeme said: “We have been married 7 years and we wanted to reaffirm our vows were we regularly come for worship and because we originally married in New York at a civil ceremony, which was great but we felt we wanted to make our vows in Church. “I’m a very luck man, and Hollie has been the core that has kept me going through some tough times. What a great way to celebrate our marriage and all it means to us.”

“I had an amazing holiday in Southern Spain this summer, where I met an English guy who was working over there. He told me he was 22, and although I’m 17 that didn’t seem like too huge a gap, as we got on so well. We spent most of our time together when I was there and really hit it off, big time.
“On the last day of my holiday though, he told me he was married, which was a real shock. He also told me he was 27, and that he’d only lied about his age because he didn’t want me to think the age-gap was too big. He said he and his wife hadn’t been happy for some time, but that he really liked me and wanted to stay in touch. I was still shocked, but I like him so much that I agreed.
“Since I’ve been home, he’s messaged me regularly and we’ve chatted on FaceTime, which has made me still feel close to him. Then last week, when I answered the phone, it wasn’t him – it was his wife. She broke down and cried when she saw me and said that because of me, her husband was planning to leave her. I was so shocked, I rang off, put my phone down and walked away. It rang again right away and my mother answered it, so this woman told my mum everything.
“Now my parents are furious with me and I feel scared as well as so guilty, as it seems she lives in Spain too and he’d told her he was working late when he was with me. I haven’t answered his calls since, but he’s texted me and told me he’s sorry and that he loves me. I just don’t know what to do.”
“Even though your parents are furious with you, this is not your fault. A man that you liked and trusted has lied to you. He’s also lied to and deceived his wife, so please don’t try and shoulder the blame for the break-up of his marriage. That is entirely down to him – although I suspect there were problems in his relationship before you came on the scene anyway. You didn’t set out to ‘trap’ a married man and break up his relationship – you’re just as much a victim here as his wife is. He should never have involved you in this unpleasantness, but now you are involved you must decide what is best for you, regardless of anyone else’s point of view.
“If you really care for this man then you will, presumably, want to stay in touch with him, and will presumably hope to form an ongoing relationship with him. I would caution you though to be very careful, because he’s lied to you about his age and his status, he’s lied to his wife, and so deception is something he finds quite easy. It’s quite possible that a man who’s done that once could do it again – and the next time, you could be the victim.
“If you decide he’s worth the risk, then you’re going to have to build bridges with your parents. Talk to them and make it clear to them that this situation is not of your making but now you’re in it, you’d appreciate their understanding and support. I suspect they are not going to look on this man favourably for some time and he’s going to need to prove himself to them.
“If, however, you decide he’s not worth the risk – and it seems like a big risk to me – then your solution is simple. Tell him you don’t wish to have any further involvement with him, and then don’t answer his calls, delete his texts, and even consider changing your number. Almost everyone will have had a wild holiday romance in their time – probably even your parents! It might be safest to put this one down to experience and move on with your life without him.”

FRIENDSHIP ISN’T ABOUT WHO YOU’VE KNOWN THE LONGEST. IT’S ABOUT WHO WALKED INTO YOUR LIFE AND SAID “I’M HERE FOR YOU” AND PROVED IT. —UNKNOWN
The Bible gives many clear scriptures about the importance of community and friendship. In Matthew 18:20, Jesus expresses the power we have when two or three of us pray in His name. “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” (KJV) We can be successful alone, but God’s Word gives us encouragement to join as friends and realize the power we have when we pray in His name together.
Recently my mother went to be with Jesus. As I sat with my dad and brother feeling helpless to make decisions regarding all of the next steps, I received numerous calls and texts from friends letting me know they were praying for me and for all the plans we had to finalize. During those moments, I had great comfort in knowing my friends were actually praying. I was praying too, but knowing others were lifting me up in prayer, strengthened my faith and comforted me.
Friendship is most meaningful when it is lived intentionally. When a friend asks for prayer, really pray. Your friend may be at rock-bottom and needs you to support her for a few minutes in prayer. If a friend needs to talk, really listen. If a friend wants company, spend quality time. Intentional friendships have deep roots, and they go both ways, each of you giving and receiving. Be the type of friend you wish you had!
In rough times, God knows how much more we would need each other. That is one of the reasons He places friends in our lives. Cling to your friends, develop your friendships, love on your friends. Be the kind of friend who is loyal at all times, especially when your friend is crying, “I need help!” As friends, we need to remember each other’s importance and love each other through acts of kindness.
Be intentional with friendships. Love each other heart to heart.

New relationships are most often filled with passion and sexual intimacy is rarely an issue. As time passes, though, partners can experience a decrease in sexual desire and an overall dip in intimacy that can be brought about by numerous factors. If you’re noticing that your wife is not interested in intimacy that much anymore, you should approach that from a place of understanding and try to figure out what it is that could be, well, killing the passion.
It is important for you not to jump to any conclusions and immediately assume that your wife no longer loves you or that she is not attracted to you anymore. You don’t have to be the cause of this problem at all. Don’t regard this as a personal attack and try to talk to your partner about it in a sensitive and empathetic way. As mentioned, reasons for lack of interest in intimacy can be numerous, and I’ll now get you familiar with some of those so that when you start a conversation with your wife, you can do it considerately and with a sense of understanding.
What Could Be The Reasons For The Lack Of Interest In Intimacy?
The causes of this lack of interest can range from physical to emotional and psychological. Hormonal changes, certain medical conditions, or medications that your wife may be taking could negatively impact her libido. Aging and menopause can also be the causes, since a woman experiences various physical symptoms in menopause, while it can also take a toll on their overall mental and emotional health.
First off, the vaginal lining will become less moisturized and lose elasticity with age, which can lead to sex feeling more uncomfortable for the woman. It is not uncommon for females to lose their sex appetite due to that. Read more on sex and menopause, so as to understand what changes to expect.
Apart from the physical causes, we’ve also mentioned that some emotional and psychological issues could affect your wife’s desire to be intimate with you. Those can include stress, anxiety, depression, and various other mental health issues. Plus, if your wife is having issues with her self-esteem, that can take a toll on her desire to have sex and on your overall intimacy, since she won’t feel good about herself. Having an open and honest dialogue and helping your wife feel sexier could help in that case.
What To Do About It?
If you and your partner have been together for a long time, you should be able to freely and openly communicate about things like these. So, the first thing to do when you notice a lack of interest is talk to your wife openly and try to get to the bottom of the problem. Naturally, it should go without saying that you shouldn’t place any blame on anyone and that healthy conversations filled with understanding is necessary.
Conversation alone, however, cannot always resolve the problem. Or, at least conversation between you and your wife can’t. Your partner may not know what’s causing her to lose interest in intimacy, which is why she may feel attacked and under pressure when you start up a conversation in an effort to increase her desire and improve her libido. Even if you mean well, and I’m sure you do, you could unintentionally hit a sore spot.
You’re not the first person to struggle with the question of why my wife isn’t interested in intimacy and, fortunately, there is something you two can do so as to be more effective in solving the problem. Basically, you could agree on seeing a marriage or a sex therapist and let professionals give you their two cents. It is important, though, to rule out any organic problems first, which is why visiting a general practitioner could also help.
Therapy can help even when those organic issues exist, though, because the physical problems are bound to have an impact on emotions as well. So, regardless of the reasons for the lack of intimacy, or even if you don’t know the reasons yet, visiting a marriage or a sex therapist can be of enormous help. Suggest this to your wife to see how she will respond to the idea, but remember that you can’t, and shouldn’t even try to, force anyone to do something they don’t want.


So I watched the follow up episode, and loved it – mostly because, for once, Naomi was amazing.
Sam, on the other hand, did nothing to change my opinion that he is a terrible person. While his girlfriend Addison was spontaneously bursting into tears following the death of her mother, he was busy putting the moves on his long-suffering ex-wife, asking (seductively) how she felt about their recent kiss.
This was bad for two reasons:
- The obvious – he has a girlfriend, who he cheated on and rather than showing any remorse he pursued Naomi further
- It was completely unfair to put Naomi in that position – he had nothing to lose and everything to gain. He wasn’t actually offering her anything, if Nai had wanted more she would been hurt while Sam’s ego received a little boost, however if she denied she still had feelings for him, Sam still had Addison to go home to
Naomi reacted admirably and her often annoying, stone-like composure served her well. If she did still have feelings for Sam, which I doubt, she didn’t let him know. I think, for her, their earlier kiss was about getting one over on Addison.
In fact, Naomi delivered the best line of the series so far when Addison caught on and asked whether something had happened between her and Sam, Naomi replied:
“You know what? Your boyfriend was my husband for 17 years. He married me. I had his child. So, unless you ever hit those milestones, my relationship with Sam will always trump yours.”
Woooooo. Go Nai, go Nai, go-go go Nai!!!!
We’re yet to find out what happens to Addison and Sam now she knows, but they’re both pretty weak – my prediction is nothing much will change, it will just give Addison another thing to be insecure about.

Later in life we met again as CAs at Jetblue and shared a Crashpad in NYC. He was a great guy and will be missed. Prayers go out to his family.

How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them? But you’ll never meet them. All right, so we do the best we can. Granted. But we must still realize that love is just the result of a chance encounter.
Michelangelo, Dying Slave (detail), 1513-16
Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

A couples massage is a perfect opportunity to connect with your partner. Connecting does not always have to be about talking about things that are deep and meaningful. Psychologists have observed that sharing everyday activities builds connections between couples. And if you’ve never shared a couples massage, the novelty of a new activity will be fun. Sharing a couples massage allows you to talk and share with each other, while in a relaxed state. For couples who prefer not to talk during a massage, just sharing the intimacy of an hour of pleasure and relaxation, with soft music and the scent of aromatherapy oils, will allow worries to melt away and leave you feeling relaxed and more open to connection.


If you feel like your communications are falling through the cracks, chances are you haven't established a strong connection with the person you are speaking to.
It helps to lead with influence rather than authority. If you are influencing with your good character, knowledge, and the relationships you've built, you will be heard. But it's important to listen in return.
Active listening is a vital component of making strong teams. It ensures that both people in a conversation are getting the full and accurate meaning of what is being said, creating a more productive work environment. Listening carefully can compel workers to understand assignments they are given, and know what is expected of them.
So how do you apply this to your work life? Focus.
Maintain eye contact: Direct eye contact makes the other person feel like they have your undivided attention. This will encourage them to communicate confidently and hit all the important points they wanted to share with you. Breaking eye contact often and continuously looking the other way implies that you are either bored, in a rush, or just don't care. And that's not good for business.
Control body language: Sit still while listening. A nod of the head can be good when you agree, or use it to acknowledge a statement. Grinning or frowning can confuse or intimidate the other person, ultimately creating a major distraction for them. The more comfortable they feel with you, the more likely they are to communicate clearly.
Reduce Distractions: Just say NO. Stop checking emails and scrolling through the latest report. If you are doing anything other than listening, chances are you are ignoring tip one and two. Finishing the other person's response before s/he gets to it themselves won't help either. Rushing through talking points will only discourage and lead to miscommunications and inefficiencies.
Paraphrasing: Articulate that you understand. This will help to align the communication between you and the other person. Make sure you are on the same page by checking if you understand correctly.
Let me know how it goes! Post your questions in the comments.


Cinta (Dian Sastrowardoyo) is now the owner of a mini pop art cafe in Jakarta. She and her high school gang comforting Karmen (Adinia Wirasti), who is recovering from drug addiction. Milly (Sissy Priscillia) is married to the gangs formerly geek high school mate Mamet (Dennis Adhiswara) and is currently pregnant with their first child, while Maura (Titi Kamal) is married to Chris (Christian Sugiono) with 4 kids. Cinta announces that the ladies will go on a vacation to Jogjakarta and that she is engaged to her boyfriend Trian (Ario Bayu). Meanwhile, in New York City, Rangga (Nicholas Saputra) is the co-owner of a coffee shop when his step-sister, Sukma (Dimi Cindyastira), pays a visit to ask him to visit his estranged mother in Jogjakarta, but he refuses. He ultimately has a change of heart and decided to go there after his co-owner and friend Roberto (Chase Kuertz) convinced him that he should go back to Indonesia to tie up his loose ends.
Before the ladies go, they visit Alyas (Ladya Cheryl) grave, which is explained later in the film that she died in an accident in 2010. Rangga arrives in Jakarta to find that Cinta is no longer living in her old house, so he continues on to Jogja. In Jogja, while vacationing, Karmen and Milly see Rangga on the road, and they tell Cinta about it. Cinta doesn’t want to see him at first, but after an argument with Karmen, she decides to do so. It is revealed that they broke up in 2006. Cinta expresses her resentment towards him for gratuitously ending their relationship and that she only agreed to meet him because of her friends. Rangga explains that he broke up with her because of his academic and vocational struggles, and he thought that he couldn’t make Cinta happy. However, they decide to end things in friendly terms. Cinta ended up spending the whole day with Rangga, forgetting her vacation schedule with her friends. Before parting ways, Cinta kisses Rangga, to the shock of both former lovers. Cinta then returns to Jakarta and Rangga pays his mother a visit.
Cinta cant get Rangga out of her head and before returning to New York, Rangga stop by in Jakarta and goes to Cintas place. He admits that he wants them to be more than friends again but she replied that the kiss meant nothing, leaving him furious. And so, Rangga left the cafe as Trian arrives at the cafe. Trian, noticing Cintas changing behavior after the Jogja trip and seeing Rangga himself, confronts Cinta about Rangga, resulting at the end of the engagement. Rangga flies back to New York while Cinta has a near-death experience on the freeway, but walked away with no injuries.
A month later, Rangga and Roberto give their employee Donna (Lei-Lei Bavoil) a raise, and in gratitude, she hugs him. At the same time, Cinta enters his cafe and then run away. Rangga explains the situation and Cinta laugh. They express their love for each other and share a passionate kiss in the snowy Central Park, united at last. Before the credits, Rangga and Cinta seemingly holding their baby, until Mamet came and ask him for his and Millys baby back.

Yes, you should. If you were sent a wedding invitation, but it is too far away (in distance) to attend or you have another commitment, you should still send a gift.
A wedding present isn’t intended as a repayment for you getting to take part in the wedding ceremony and reception. It is a way of expressing your good wishes for the couple and responding to the regard they showed you by asking you to share in their big day with them.
What you send is entirely up to you, and depends on how well you know the bride and/or groom.
If the bride is a close relative, you will obviously want to give a meaningful present. On the other hand, if the wedding is that of a distant acquaintance, something more modest will do just fine.
Have a look at their wedding list, it is likely that they have put together a list with a wide range of prices and you’ll be able to find something suitable.

This is always a particularly hard time of year for me. My mother passed away on July 7, 2004. This year is even more difficult as it marks 10 years since she left us. It is amazing how ten years can seem like an eternity and yet, at the same time, like a blink of an eye. So much has happened, and yet, so much has remained unchanged.
There are many things that I wish I had done differently when she was alive. Of course, hindsight is always 20/20 and I try not to dwell on what I would change if I had a chance for a do-over.
But there is one thing that I wish I had been able to experience while she was alive and that is motherhood. I don’t think you truly understand what it is to have a child, to love a child, to sacrifice all that you are and all that you have for your child’s happiness, until you actually have a child. And I think once you understand it, once you feel it in your soul, you can better appreciate your own mother and the sacrifices she made for you.
As a kid, I was the “rebellious” one. I say rebellious but I really wasn’t. I was always at the top of my class, didn’t date until my 20’s, didn’t drink or do drugs, and had a decent group of friends. But I had a lot of drive and ambition and I don’t think my parents knew what to do with that.
My mother and I didn’t have a good relationship when I was younger either. Of course, as I look back, we were very similar so of course we butted heads. But in my mind, she didn’t treat me the same way she did my brother and sister. She didn’t take care of me the same way. She didn’t worry about me as much as she did them. And to me, this was all proof that she didn’t love me as much.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
What I mistook as ambivalence was actually trust in my abilities. What I mistook as a lack of love was in fact confidence that I would thrive without her constant guidance. I was fine and she knew it, so she didn’t bother worrying about me.
And there were times that she did worry about me but I never found out until after she had passed away. My mother was not a touchy-feely kind of woman. She didn’t hug. She didn’t cry and she rarely said, “I love you”. I remember on my wedding day, she looked me up and down, smiled and told me I looked nice while my father stood sobbing beside her. But after she died, several of her friends told me she had confided in them about her fears for me. She was worried that I wouldn’t conceive as I was struggling with infertility at the time and she told them that she was worried about what the MS was going to do to me. She never told me any of this. She just always said that she knew I was going to be fine.
It all makes sense to me now that I am a mother and I see my children. I see my two boys each with very different needs, different personalities and different ideas. I love them both equally and differently at the same time. My love is unconditional. It knows no bounds, no limits.
I wish I had understood all of this when she was alive. I would have appreciated her so much more. I would have let go of my resentment and accepted that she gave me exactly what I needed when I needed it, even though I didn’t realize it.
In the end, we had a good relationship. We grew closer in her final years. She knew I loved her and I know she loved me, probably more than I will ever truly understand. Of course she did – she was my mother.


Words From A Wise Man
“The Most Beautiful Successful Women have never been taken out on a real date; not because they are gold diggers, cocky, stuck up or unapproachable. Beautiful Women are actually the most approachable, sweetest, friendly, financially independent, caring women,” I responded. “As men, we must be chivalrous enough to ask her out on a REAL date, plan and pay for everything. But don’t “ask” her; be confident and say,
“I would like to take you out on a date this Thursday to hear live music after dinner, a deep conversation and a walk on the boardwalk; what time are you available?”
You don’t ask a woman out; you ask her what time she’s available. This is out of respect, because a woman has the right to take however long she wants getting dressed. Perhaps her eyebrows are a bit bushy, and she needs to see her specific threader, maybe her toe nails are a bit on the eagle claw side and she needs a pedicure; but she’s DESERVING of a date, so to even ask her the question, as if it is in question, is disrespect. Let her know when you want to take her out, then give her the option to let you know if she feels you deserve to be graced with her presence on a date.
Never tell a woman:
“Let’s meet up”
“Let’s kick it”
No, ask her when she’s available for a date.
She is NOT your ‘bro’. Treat her like a woman. Don’t ask a woman, ‘so where do you want to go?” No, you plan it. You pick the venues and events; yes events plural. Please do not take a woman simply to a movie on a first date young kings.” ~Ebrahim Aseem #PublicSpeaker
Words From A Man
"The worst thing you can do to a strong-minded woman is insult her intelligence. Don’t try to lie or run game on her when she questions your loyalty. Don’t lie and say, ‘I need to check my phone, it’s business.’ She knows it’s not your job texting, by the consistency of the frequent notifications. She knows back to back iMessage notifications when she hears them, and no job would be that redundant in communication." ~Ebrahim Aseem #PublicSpeaker
Words From A Man
"Don’t complain to a woman, asking her why she never: texts you back, comes to see you, or returns your calls; that’s unmanly. It’s not that she’s ‘ignoring’ you or ‘curving’ you. She is genuinely just tired of you wasting her time. She’s not ‘going ghost’; loyal women simply know a male doesn’t deserve her time if he isn’t willing to put in the consistent effort to earn it. You have yet to take her out on a real date, you have yet to articulate to her you want to date her exclusively and you still have yet to completely cut off your EXs. She can tell you obviously are not mature enough to commit to her, so don’t be surprised when she treats you like a stranger." ~Ebrahim Aseem #PublicSpeaker
"The sign of a mentally mature man is one who can commit to something, commit to a major, commit to a career, commit to a creative discipline and commit to a loyal woman, respectively. Don’t just make her a friend with sexual benefits, while stringing her heart along." ~Ebrahim Aseem


When couples are expecting their first child, they spend an enormous amount of time shopping, reading, and learning. They often read books and take classes in order to learn more about pregnancy, labour, delivery, and parenting. Research suggests that it may be equally important for parents to spend time strengthening their relationship before the baby comes. Honing communication skills, enhancing closeness and intimacy, and addressing any repetitive, negative cycles of interaction before dealing the challenges of a newborn can prevent bigger relationship problems from developing later.
What do we know about the impact of children on marital satisfaction?
Most changes in life, good or bad, can be stressful and having a baby is no exception. Newborns can bring delight and joy, but they can also bring sleepless nights, hours of housework, financial pressures, and changes in both partners’ routines, schedules, and roles. Partners often have less time to themselves and less time together as a couple once they have children. No surprise, then, that two thirds of new parents report an increase in relationship conflict and more feelings of disappointment and hurt after having a baby.
Not only does having children decrease couples’ relationship satisfaction, it can also affect couples’ ability to parent effectively. Couples who are having a hard time getting along with one another often have difficulty cooperating and supporting one another as parents. Feelings of hurt, anger, disappointment, or feeling unappreciated or misunderstood can get in the way of working together as parents.
What can you do to protect and strengthen your relationship as you face the challenges of parenthood?Get some help before the baby arrives.
Thankfully, couples can combat the negative impact of children on relationship satisfaction by seeking help before the problems start. By engaging in couples counselling (a.k.a. marriage counselling) prior to becoming parents, partners can make sure that any small cracks in their relationship—areas of conflict, disagreement, resentment, or friction—are addressed and “sealed” before the baby comes along. With a new, stronger relationship, couples are much better equipped to take on the challenges of parenting as a cohesive unit.Get some help as soon as you notice problems developing.
If you didn’t get help before the baby’s arrival or if you didn’t’ think you needed help at that time, the best time to get help is as soon as you notice problems. The sooner you get help, the smaller the problems are likely to be and the more easily and quickly they are likely to be resolved. What kind of problems should you be worried about? Couples who experience repeating patterns of conflict (i.e., fighting about the same things over and over again in the same ways with no resolution), nagging criticism, or emotional disconnection may benefit from emotionally focused therapy (EFT).
How can EFT for couples help expectant parents and parents of young children?
Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) is a form of couples therapy that can be particularly helpful for expectant couples and for couples with young children. Why? Because emotional disconnection and an increasing sense of distance or detachment between partners is one of the primary complaints made by new parents. EFT for couples is specifically designed to increase the emotional connection between partners by breaking negative cycles of interaction. EFT strengthens a couple’s emotional bond so that when challenges arise, they are able to face them as a team.
Why get help now?
The stress of having a baby can make small cracks in a relationship become big fissures. When couples address relationship difficulties early they prevent emotional disconnection, relationship dissatisfaction, and even relationship dissolution. This benefits both the couple and their future child!


Unfortunately, penis enlargement is one of the key issues to offer your partner the enjoyment she is looking for. Hence, I am much more concerned about the best male enhancement and how to increase my penis size.Although, it would appear that I fall into the smaller-medium end of the ‘average size’, I was still very unhappy. Do you know why?
I was deeply frustrated and disappointed because of the following:
- The deep dissatisfaction signs on my girlfriend’s face after intercourse killed me.
- Horrible feeling I had when my girlfriend did not enjoy sleeping with me.
- The disability to turn my girlfriend on is terrible.
- Loosing self-confident is simply destroying.
- Feeling deeply jealous from each happy couple.
- I was always sad, demotivated, and feeling confused.
- I totally lost my desire to hang out with people.
- Without overdoing, my life went totally down.
Honestly, my sexual intercourse leaves nothing, but shame, sadness, and embarrassment. Believe me; I could not even lift my eyes to look at Johanna again!!! And what is even worse….
After each sexual intercourse, Johanna looks at me with a mixture of amusement and disappointing saying that it was OK, but surely she wishes that I could have a bigger penis!!! Sadly, women share everything, and I think that our common friends noticed that our relationship is already on the edge, thanks to my disability to satisfy her in the bed.
I totally lost my self-confidence as my lame performance made me feel like less than a man! Believe me, when I suffered from my small penis size, I’d have paid just about anything I own for the best male enhancement devices.
Till the day, I thought that Johanna wanted to breakup with me. Honestly, I could hardly imagine the life without her as I am deeply in love with her.
