This is an example of a fine upstanding man, a romantic ideal. Adolphe is stable and reliable, hardworking, practical, and kind. He’s the type of man who works diligently within his culture, not looking to move away, wanting his own space and family because he has the heart of a romantic idealist. He and Carlotta grew a natural interest in each other after being childhood friends, though, because the more extreme personalities around them rely on them for grounding they may also have been pushed to rely on each other for the same. His costume is meant to show less skin and more maturity than the other peasant men. Adolphe is named for Giselle’s composer Adolphe Adam.


Since I don’t write on Sundays and yesterday was Valentines Day I figured I would write my post Valentines Day write up! I am sure some of you dutifully sent roses, candy (thanks for making them fat!), or even surprised them with an in-person visit to bring an extra special gift of jewelry just to show the woman you pay to have sex with how much she means to you! I’m sure she dutifully acted surprised and emotional when gifts were received. For those of you not in country I am sure she made sure none of the other gifts from her various “boyfriends” were at least not in the photo she sent to you showing off your gift.
For those of us not in the love with prostitutes I’m sure your day was as eventful as mine. I did fuck all nothing and to be honest as I write this I am drinking a beer and debating on heading out to dinner and enjoy more beer. I don’t need to send gifts that are worthless to anyone on made up holiday to generate sales.
I’m sure some of you are thinking I’m a cynical prick and just too jaded to give a shit. Well, thats sums up my condition succinctly to be honest. I am very content being by myself. It’s part of my introverted nature that being around someone 24/7 wears me the fuck out. If I have to pretend to be someone completely different than I am then why the fuck am I with someone in the first place?
I haven’t felt the need to fill a “hole” in myself by finding a woman. Sure I went through a phase where I thought I should give it a try but they ended in disaster. Like many a monger I went through the looking for love in all the wrong places phase too. Meaning in places full of prostitutes. I mean; like attracts like now doesn’t it? More to the point and per Lonesome Traveler “we are just opposite sides of the same coin” (There I gave you credit!).
Now I find my love by the hour or less and I’m content with it. My emotional needs for a relationship are met through other avenues and I don’t need a woman to make me happy. Point in case the civilian I was fucking just recently entered a stable relationship with a dude. The funny thing was he was proclaiming it all over Facebook. I was amused as hell. I wasn’t hurt beating my chest thinking I just maybe missed out on a great thing. Instead I was thinking I wasn’t getting access to easy pussy again with no strings until I find another one.
The concept of love and being in love is just some banal shit at best. Me personally? The most successful relationships I have had and continue to have are those I was friends with first and fucking came later. This is either prostitute or civilian. There was an understanding in place that wasn’t defined by being in “love” with the person. I came to understand them as a person first and as a lover second. I already learned their flaws and they learned mine. The sex was good because there was no pressure. If we didn’t enjoy it then it didn’t happen again and the friendship was maintained.
So I hope those of you basking in your post Valentines Day glow are enjoying it. Be it being a fool in love or a cynical prick with a jaded sense of self. Me personally? I’m going to get a bite to eat and watch the fools in love with all the other cynical pricks.

We've come a long way since the Sabine women and the need to literally capture a mate. When it comes to contemporary ideas of "right" or "traditional" dating though, we don't seem that far removed from the medieval notions of match-making, let alone Victorian era gender roles.
I'm not an historian or a dating expert but can't we agree that a lot of our customs just don't make sense with our current and very good notions of gender equality?
I've Got the Power
As a male, I know that certain things are expected of us men on dates - anything from holding open a door to "pursuing" the woman to paying for the date. I can't speak from the women's perspective so I won't. But I have issues with this script.
First, this isn't the 1950s. Men solely paying for dates makes a lot of sense when they're the only gender making an income! Or when their income is enough to support a whole family. Neither of those is true today. Men aren't the only ones working and salaries for both genders generally aren't enough to support a nonworking spouse and any children. I don't mind paying for dates, really. But the expectation that this is the realm of the man is just as outdated as girdles. Maybe even more so since we still have Spanx.
I also have a distaste for guys feeling the need to be the pursuer. A lot of men feel emasculated if they're asked out or bought dinner, and the only reason is they don't feel in control or that they're "wearing the pants" (read "have the power"). A lot of our dating rules seem to be about delegating power to the proper gender, and it's just ridiculously stupid. And downright unhealthy often enough. If you truly can't see gender equality and still feel you need power as a man or need to give it up as a woman, then I honestly don't think your imaging God who is true Masculinity and true Femininity. God isn't concerned with power games.
The last power complaint is women being treated as property. We like to replace "property" with words like "proper" (how very close it is!) or "respectful." Asking for a father's permission may be seen as respectful but it's also pretty outdated. My parents loved us boys just as much as my sister and they don't feel the need to vet girlfriends (or, to their credit, boyfriends in my sister's case). If you're a minor, parental permission makes sense. If an adult, again, it's about a male having power over you, which I just can't understand.
So where to go from here?
Yeah, I clearly don't know the answer. But I know I make it a point to say upfront to people I date that I'm a feminist and that I believe in equality. Relevant to this topic, that takes the form of sharing expenses - usually whoever proposes the date pays. It also means letting go of the reigns. I pursue someone when I like them. I've had women pursue me too, and I gotta say, I'm a fan. If it's not about my ego, which I hope it isn't, then what do I care if someone is up front about liking me? I still do some traditional things in dating but it's because they're my preference and not because they meet some objective standard.
I'll also say, if you just happen to like traditional dating, that's great! Nothing wrong with that. If you like having doors held open for you and being pursued and a lot of other traditional things, more power to you. It's not a problem at all to want to be dated in a certain way. The problem is when you feel, by virtue of your gender, that you're entitled to certain behavior from a dating partner or that dating has to happen a certain way. It doesn't. But we should all know our own preferences, and who cares if yours is traditional?
I'd say that however you feel about dating, be aware that traditional and nontraditional expectations in dating carry with them a philosophy of power and importance distributed between the two of you. I'm uncomfortable having most of the power (as the male pursuer) and hoping that if I ever tie the knot with someone, our mindset will radically be changed to seeing each other as equals. That's unrealistic, and I think the way you date is probably the way you'll see a spouse. Make sure it's a healthy path.

2.1. Hello Again; Let's Talk About Couples Counseling
Updated: Dec 21, 2020
Have you ever wondered if you and your spouse should see a therapist?
This summer, I researched the transition to parenting and the effect it has on marriages. Disclaimer; what I learned was concerning. Most couples report a large decrease in marital satisfaction for the first SEVERAL years of their child's life. But it doesn't have to be that way. A couples therapist can help you avoid these "down years" in your marriage, and help you develop tools for communicating, empathizing, and supporting one another through some of life's most challenging transitions.
This episode is for anyone who has been curious about couples counseling, and who wants to know more about what to expect and how it can be valuable in your relationship.


In that moment I’m able to accept the inevitability of how I feel, though not with joy. I need to talk to someone. I need to trust someone. And for whatever reason, I know, I know it’s her.
They’re mesmerizing separately and together, and together they do something that you rarely get to see anymore, which is just explode with chemistry.
“I fell in love with him. […] I stay with him because I choose to, every day that I wake up, every day that we fight or lie to each other or disappoint each other. I choose him over and over again, and he chooses me.”
I wake with his name on my lips: Will.


I can't remember which reader told me I would meet someone new in August. That was the only reader that told me that even though she saw me and my boyfriend long term just as all of the readers have. She did tell me that since my boyfriend doesn't know right from wrong at least I would have a choice. We shall see. I will keep you posted if Mr. Right comes into my life.

Happy Valentines Day!
“Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. Do not repay evil for evil, or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing. For whoever desires to love this life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking decei; let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of The Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayer. But the face of The Lord is against those who do evil.” 1 Peter 3:8-12
– Marriage is not primarily about you
– It is just as important to become the right person as it is to find the right person
– The myth of ‘The One’ is not biblical. The one you married is the one with whom you are to make a life…
-Marriage reflects to the world God’s promise to be with us and to redeem us
– Marriage is a covenant- a permanent promise- not a contract
– Marriage is more than a device to suit your own needs; it exists for a bigger purpose
– The ultimate purpose of marriage is to reflect God’s image
Ephesians 5:31 “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is profound, and I’m saying that it refers to Christ and the church”
‘Marriage is embedded in the culture as a gospel testimony that is always making statements. The only question is whether it’s a good statement or a bad one.’
“I didn’t marry you because you were perfect, I married you because you gave me a promise. That promise made up for your faults. And the promise I gave you made up for mine. Two imperfect people got married, and it was the promise that made the marriage. And when our children were growing up, it wasn’t a house that protected them; and it wasn’t our love that protected them; it was that promise.”
Thornton Wilder- The Skin of Our Teeth
God designed marriage to be a covenant, not a contract. What’s the difference? A contract is based on legalism and leverage…it lasts “as long as we both shall love”…calls for the signing of names.
A covenant is based on love and loyalty…lasts “as long as we both shall live”…and calls for the binding of hearts.
“I have no way of knowing whether or not you married the wrong person, but I do that many people have a lot of wrong ideas about marriage and what it takes to make that marriage happy and successful. I’ll be the first to admit that it’s possible that you did marry the wrong person. However, if you treat the wrong person like the right person, you could well end up having married the right person after all. On the other hand, if you marry the right person, and treat that person wrong, you certainly will have ended up marrying the wrong person. I also know that it is far more important to be the right kind of person, than it is to marry the right person. In short, whether you married the right or wrong person is primarily up to you.”
Zig Ziglar- Courtship after Marriage
(All excerpts, excluding the actual scripture, were taken from the Art of Marriage Manual.)
“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends..” Jesus- the author of love John 15:13
May You be faithful to complete it in us…


No man is an island. Everyone on planet earth was born into a family. Therefore, right from when we could hardly differentiate between right from wrong, we already had relationships formed. We formed relationships with our parents, siblings and other family members. Then as we grew up, got into kindergarten, elementary through middle school and college, we formed other relationships.
Some relationships are formed with very solid foundations and are able to withstand the storms of life which very often bellows; however, some others may not be so fortunate. One important factor that determines the tenacity or looseness of the relationships we form is the value we place on them.
While some people may place more value on relationship by kinship, others may well look for solace in relationships formed outside their family circles. No matter your preference for the kinds of relationships you treasure the most, it is imperative to understand the fact that no one can live in isolation. Relationships do matter, and should be nurtured with trust. Be it relationships with our parents, siblings, spouses, children, friends or other family members, we must place more value in our connections with our fellow man.
The reality of the situation is that sometimes, we may inadvertently be wasting our times and resources on relationships which add no values to our lives. Relationships which devalue us, demean us, or generally overburden us with no return on investments (ROI). While committing to such unprofitable relationships, we in the process, depreciate relationships that should have added more value to our lives, and therefore lose out on their gains. This can be prevented by carrying out a thorough analysis of the value of the relationships in our lives.It is time to ask yourself those thought provoking questions and free yourself from the pain and anxiety that tags along with some of them. Ask yourself, “what is the cost of this relationship?” (in literal financial terms), “what value does this relationship add to me?”, “do I feel motivated and empowered while lounging in this relationship, or feel distressed and worn out?”, “is this relationship causing me anxiety, rather than joy and happiness?”, “is this relationship making me depressed?” Some of these questions can only be answered truthfully by you. Personally, I have had to disengage from certain relationships that added no value to my life. Relationships that never sought to bring out the best in me, but only wanted me to remain at the same level of my life. I didn’t need anyone to advise me. I made the decision for myself; and you can too, if you want to start investing more in the relationships that add value to your life.
So many people have been trapped in negative relationships that sometimes, many suicides could have been prevented if someone had taken the extra step to notice that they were going down the hill. While we may not place all of our relationships on the same pedestal, we must endeavor to add value to those relationships which make us better. Some people are quick to state that they do not need anyone to survive on earth. Others may say that “I do my own things”. While these may appear valid on the exterior, in reality if we really are able to dig deep, we may find that these same people may be amongst the loneliest people on the block.Placing value on the relationships we hold dear is an effective way to warm the heart, because with such comes beautiful memories that add flavor to our life’s journeys. We can all add value to our treasured relationships by:
- Making a decision to add more value to the people we hold dear. This is a conscious move. You have to be willing and decide completely to let it happen
- Going out of our way to actually show that we care enough about the other person by spending more time together, chatting over the phone, messaging, and if distance is no barrier, actual face to face visits, including the times we do not feel like it. In this age of social media, staying connected to the people we hold dear is a whole lot easier. But even with that, some people still have a hard time maintaining relationships
- Being more optimistic than pessimistic about our relationships by learning to trust, rather than being cynical
Life itself can be tough at times, with many twists and turns to it. Never underestimate the value of rock-solid relationships during those down times, because that may be the needed panacea to put you well over the circumstances of life. So, make the decision and analyze the costs of your relationships, and take the next steps to add more value to your most prized ones!
To your continued success. Cheers!!!

A client wished to apply for a divorce in accordance with the law of Western Australia.
He had been married overseas and been separated for some considerable time. The client was provided with legal advice and assistance in relation to the completion of the application.
The client arranged the service by engaging a very close relative of both he and his estranged wife. An affidavit of service was filed by the relative confirming his attempt to serve. The estranged wife did not sign an Acknowledgement of Service. The Family Court of WA (FCWA) refused to accept that service had been conducted in accordance with the Family Law Rules 2004.
Extensive correspondence was entered on behalf of the client with the FCWA to advise that service had been lawfully conducted and should be accepted. Further, the client was also assisted with the application for substituted service and finally, a successful application to dispense was made, following which the client was granted a Decree Nisi (confirmation by the court that the reasons for the divorce have been established and all legal requirements have been met) and then a Decree Absolute (order from the court confirming the divorce and replacement of marriage certificate).
The client reported his sense of relief and his ability to look forward and make plans for a future that he for a very long while thought not possible. The client was very grateful for the assistance and acknowledged that without the support of the family law unit and SSCLS, he would have struggled otherwise.


Has your partner just announced she’s pregnant? Wow, that’s a lot to take in! Perhaps this wasn’t what you had planned or wasn’t even on your radar. For many, learning that your partner is pregnant is an overwhelming and daunting reality. We understand that feeling. We want you to know we’re here for you too, and we will do whatever we can to ensure that men have the tools necessary to address this situation responsibly and honorably.
What Is A Guy Supposed To Do?
- It is important that you and your partner work through this decision together. No one should have to choose how to handle an unplanned pregnancy on their own.
- Verify the pregnancy with her. Come to Hope First for free and confidential pregnancy testing.
- If the test is positive, request a referral for a free on-site ultrasound. This will show you both the date of conception and the viability of the pregnancy.
- Learn about the options available to the two of you. Set up an appointment to talk with us and discuss your situation.
- Ask each other some important questions. For instance, “How do you feel about abortion?” “Would you consider making an adoption plan?” “Are we willing to co-parent?” Talking it out can help you both be comfortable with your final decision.
We aim to support, encourage, and mentor young fathers as they experience the joys and challenges of parenthood. We hope to reach young men before they become fathers in order to educate and empower them to make wise decisions in life.
If you have questions, reach out!
If you are a man that is interested in learning about how to support your partner during this time, we can point you to the best resources and tools. If you are interested, contact us here, or call us at 910-938-7000.


“Billy, go out and make friends with Johnny,” your mother used to say. Wow, mothers were smart. They understood the fundamentals of becoming connected: Make friends first.
As friendships blossom into relationships, report cards on their strength and quality pop up from time to time, especially when things go wrong. In sales and customer relations, the quality of your relationships will determine the outcome of events when there is a problem or an issue with cost, quality or service.
The power of the friendly relationship
I’m not saying that if you have a great relationship you can ignore important issues and skate by; I am saying that a great relationship will act as a buffer and allow all problems and issues to be resolved harmoniously. And just to put “the power of the friendly relationship” issue to rest, it is also the single biggest factor in bringing clients back to you.
The rules of business are not as tough as the rules of relationships. Relationships are hard to develop, take time to mature and must be nurtured along the way. But once they are developed, they are the most powerful force in the business world.
Big proof: Look at the customers you wish you had. The main reason you can’t get them is that someone else has a better relationship with them than you do.
Here are the key words and thought-provoking realities that will lead you to rock-solid, rich relationships:
- Give value: You strengthen relationships by giving value to the people you’re building them with—not by telling them facts about you. For referral partners and business clients, for instance, give them leads or put them in front of contacts who might lead to business for them.
- Tell truths: You build relationships by telling the truth, even if it hurts or embarrasses you.
- Beat goals: Have an achievable plan. Win big. Develop self-confidence by winning bigger than you expected. Self-confidence is attractive. Clients are especially attracted to it.
- Get more knowledge: Have as much knowledge about your relationships as you do about your company and your products and services.
- Have answers: Be a resource. Get to the point where they consider you a source of information rather than a salesperson.
- Tell stories: Stories help people relate. Tell them one, and they tend to tell you one back. Stories are personal. Stories are revealing. Stories are truth.
- Tell how: Explain how you have built relationships with others and tell how you will do it with them.
- Find links: Part of the relationship-building secret is to break the ice. Find something in common—a link that ties you together. Nothing like growing up in the same town, having gone to the same college or having worked for the same company! Gathering information lets you know where to start.
- Use links: Find the stuff that helps referral partners and business clients build their business, and surprise them with it.
- Get personal: Use personal information in a creative, sincere way.
- Be there: Stay in front of your clients without an agenda (asking for the sale). Just earn the sale with valuable information they can use.
- Be friends: Perform acts of friendship as well as acts of business. Have fun. Do nonbusiness things with your clients and referral partners.
Here are some special clues for building a successful relationship with your clients:
- Secret clue: Need additional information on a potential business client you’re trying to link up with? Easy. Call his sales department—they’ll tell you everything.
- Relative clue: Want to know more about what makes relationships succeed or fail? Look close to home for the answers. Your mom and dad, brothers and sisters, and spouse and kids have all the answers you’ll ever need.
- Friendship clue: After you study your family relationship characteristics. Study your friends and the way you communicate with them. Notice something different in the way you communicate with best friends as opposed to businesspeople? It’s relaxed, more truthful and less manipulative—try that with your clients.
- Reality clue: How you treat others is determined by how you treat yourself. Are you qualified to build a relationship? Do you possess the characteristics of giving first, professionalism, self-esteem, self-confidence, honesty and integrity—qualities that are needed to make relationships work?
The real secret
If you think you have it all together, think again. You must work on yourself as much as you work on those you seek to relate to. Looking for a way to evaluate your capabilities? The biggest judgment you make each day is the one in front of the bathroom mirror in the morning. Reflections don’t lie.

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
- My little Monster
- based on manga
- by Hiro Kaburaki
Shizuku Mizutani rather cares for her grades than for her classmates. However after meeting Haru Yoshida, her personality changes drastically. Haru is a troublemaker who doesn’t attend classes. Similar to Shizuku, neither of them have many friends nor much knowledge about human nature. Haru quickly confesses his feelings towards Shizuku. Moreover, because of the lack of friends, Shizuku is not very familiar when it comes to her relationship with Haru. Their friendship starts to continue as she finds out that Haru isn’t just a violent guy. So she also starts to develop feelings for him but she is not quite sure about them. Both start to discover the true nature of their feelings.
The main topics of the anime series are love and friendship. Especially the love confession between both main protagonists is the essential topic.The series follows the development of their relationship and how they have to deal with it. Friendship also plays an important role in this relationship between Haru and Shizuku. However, Haru has to deal with fake friends who only use him to get money. Also the positive side of friendships is shown as students who were lonely the whole time, start gaining friends. Even though the focus in on both protagonists, relationships and love confessions within supporting characters are also present. The anime series is also filled with some suspenses such as: Will Shizuku accept that she has fallen in love with Haru? Will they come together or will they just be friends?
‘Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun’ contains many funny interactions between the characters., especially between Haru and Shizuku. As already mentioned before, Haru is a troublemaker but he is also very dependent on Shizuku who is kinda annoyed by it. Also Haru’s lack of knowledge of human relationships brings many laughter. The falling in love of many boys with Natsume (a classmate of Shizuku who asks for her help in a re-test) is also very amusing because she feels very uncomfortable in such situations. Haru’s acquaintance Yamaken also brings some laughter especially when he is always lost.
Besides funny elements, many emotional scenes are also included. Firstly, the struggle of love feelings is very dominant. Shizuku seems to not care about love or about others and therefore she doesn’t understand her feelings towards Haru. Also a ‘forbidden’ love confession is shown as Natsume has feelings for Micchan who is Haru’s elder cousin. He is much older then her. Loneliness is a further emotional topic. Both protagonists can be referred to this aspect. Because of being rude and aggressive, Haru is being excluded and scared by his classmates. Whereas Shizuku does not have many friends because she is only interested in studying. Besides loneliness, jealousy is a further but rather typical topic in a romance anime series. Haru is very jealous when someone gets too close to Shizuku, in this case Yamaken who seems to be interested in her. However, the jealous feelings can also be seen by Shizuku as she finds out that Oshima has a crush on Haru.
The anime series contains a variety of characters. Their differences in personality make them unique and divers. We also think that a development of the characters can be noticed. For example, at the beginning Shizuku only focuses on her studies but then she starts caring for others and even asks for their well-being. Another character is Haru who firstly isolated himself from school because the classmates fear him. However, later in the anime he gets more popular and develops friendships.

Yamaken is one of Haru’s friend even though he uses him more as being a friend. Moreover, he has some orientation issues which means he has a bad sense of directions; however he doesn’t ask for help. Many hints of Yamaken’s feelings towards Shizuku are also shown.
Mitsuyoshi Misawa (Micchan)
Micchan is like a father figure for Haru as he takes care of him. Haru is also the one who gave him his nickname (Mi-chan). Micchan likes giving people advices on life especially to Haru and Shizuku. He shows much kindness to people as he kinda feels responsible for Haru.
The art of animation is very well done. We like the cute depiction of the characters but also their emotions stand out. The background and environment scenes are quite neat and contain many details. We also like the usage of the different colors especially the brighter ones dominate here.
Then opening theme is not bad but a bit kitschy. The song itself (Q&A Recital!“ (Q&Aリサイタル！)) by Haruka Tomatsu is really good and amusing. The opening shows the important characters and does not show any spoilers which is a positive point.
All in all, the anime series is not bad but we think it could have been a bit more interesting. It is the second romance/shōjo series we have seen so far. In comparison to ‘Ao Haru Ride’ is ‘Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun’ much better. However we think that the anime lacks of thrilling moments.

A dedication to my muse – my everything

Monday, 23 December 2013
Most everyday I find myself wondering why I put myself through the same routines over and over again. Why do I set myself up to be hurt? Why am I constantly attracted to those who are not on the same page as me, who do not want the same as me, who second guess everything while I simply know?
He asked me, "Mimz, how do you know if someone is the one?" I had no answer to this question because from the moment he stole my heart I never once questioned whether he was the one or not. I just knew it. It is not something you have to think about or wonder about. It is something you feel in your bones. It is this age old understanding that is built into your genome. The moment you love honestly and truly, that is the moment you know and you never for a second doubt it. You can only imagine how hurt I was when he asked me that. Knowing that he questioned my position as the one when I never doubted him for a second spoke volumes for itself.
Saying you love someone is easy. However, building yourself up and finding yourself in another person before proclaiming love is completely different. You give in to that person in a whole new way and that is when you know you could never survive a day without them. Yet now that I know that he does not see me as the one, I am unable to process my next step. How am I to continue on with a person who does not see me as that? How can he be the one for me? The feeling is suppose to be reciprocated, right? Is he not suppose to see me in the same light?
We all have fears. Some of us are afraid of dogs and others of commitment but does that fear not fade away when you find love? Or am I simply living in a fool's paradise? Believing that everything fixes itself when you find true love does actually sound very far-fetched. I held on to that childish notion for a long time and he, he proved me wrong in a second. When you lose the innocence of childhood what are you left with but the darkness of reality? You are left with despair and hopelessness and all that wonder and naivety disappears because of one individual.
When you believe someone to be the one you hold on with a desperate hope and that only means that every doubt they share with you tears into your marrow. It destroys you from the inside. I guess I never thought that the one person I would love so truly would also be the one who would break me beyond repair. I do not see myself recovering from this blow. I just see myself fighting for his love day in and day out only for him to hurt me every time he says he is not sure about me.
When will he be sure? Will I ever be the one? Or will he continue leading me down the garden path never giving me a chance to move on when he strikes the inevitable blow?
I wish I had the answers...


Manolo says, the Manolo he reminds you that your mother, your darling sainted mother, she is waiting by the phone for you to call and express your gratitude for giving you the sacred gift of the life.
What? Are you not grateful?
Yes, you will show up on the Sunday afternoon to take her to the Steakhouse of the Outback for the pseudo-Australian meat-fest and deep-fried onion, but is this the blooming thing that she would really want?
Is not your affection, expressed with the simple, traditional gift and your most heart-felt love preferable?
The Manolo he reminds you, you are not the Eminem, you love your mother, be nice to her on this the most special day (after your birthday) on the motherly calendar.

Here follows the speech I made as Maid of Honour at my brother’s wedding. Please note my brother’s name is Alex but he has had the long time nickname of ‘Allen’ so it switches back and forth.
Hi my name is Bridget. I’ve known Tiane for a couple of years now. Alex and I met in 1989 and he’s been like a brother to me ever since. Tiane, you are a vision tonight. Allen, looking Elephant Fresh.
I know I’m supposed to welcome Tiane into the family tonight but for better or worse she’s been one of us for years now. For the longest time it’s felt only natural to refer to her as my sister. Which made it kind of awkward when I absentmindedly told a colleague a work that I was going to my “brother and sister’s” wedding.
Bear with me, I’m pretty nervous. As some of you might know I’m a bit of an introvert. I don’t like many people, probably only like 15-20% of you here if I’m honest… I kid, I kid, we’re all family now. I wouldn’t jeopardise my place in your wills like that. The point I’m trying to make is that I don’t like many people but I like Tiane. I knew we were going to be friends right from the very beginning. She was a better girlfriend than our family ever could have dreamed for Alex. We were actually kind of nervous he’d screw it up early on. I feared she’d see a picture of him from his bodybuilding days, glistening with fake tan and oil, or she’d find out he had a bad habit of tearing the crotch of his pants at inopportune moments or even worse yet, he would roll over one night and squish her like the adorable little lady beetle that she is.
But they must have figured out some kind of pillow barrier situation or something because she stuck around and we all fell in love with her. I say that “we” fell in love with her because it’s impossible to describe their relationship without mentioning the effect it has on those around them. Their love is inclusive and vibrant, never jealous or conditional. These two are so much fun when they’re together and as a constant third wheel I’ve been given the chance to see my brother’s best qualities enhanced and his challenges conquered with love and understanding. My brother has always been the smart one in the family but never has that been more evident than the day he decided to marry Tiane. I never thought I would ramble about love like this but you guys, this is the real deal. One time I found them napping on the couch together and they’d fallen asleep holding hands. Once at a family party I discovered they’d slipped away quietly and were slow dancing in the living room. That is some Disney shit!
Now I’d like to tell you about my favourite thing that has ever happened. Which is the time Alex got stung by a wasp and his face swelled up like the elephant man. There’s a special and enthusiastic kind of schadenfreude reserved for little sisters when their older siblings get hurt and I will never not laugh when I think of his puffy, wasp stung face. I mostly just wanted to relive that moment but I promise this story is also relevant today. You see, the wasp-face saga happened to take place the same week Tiane graduated from uni. But instead of hiding out from society like the hideous beast that he was, my brother put on a suit and popped along to her graduation. We have pictures of him standing proudly next to Tiane, her in her cap and robe, him beaming and squinting through a half-closed eye. This also happened to be the first time Alex had met a lot of Tiane’s uni friends but she still happily introduced Wasp Face to her pals. Their reactions are partly due to my brother having no shame but it’s mostly a reflection of the deep love, commitment and pride they have for each other. It’s a beautiful thing to know your partner is always going to show up for you and equally that they’re always going to love you, even if you’re hideously disfigured by wasps.
My brother has spent a lot of my life explaining the mysteries of the world to me. When we were little he was the one who showed me that if you poured the washing liquid down the laundry sink a cloud of bubbles would rise from the drain outside. We would run around, laughing like maniacs as the bubbles rained down. When I was a teenager Alex was the one to help me with my maths homework. I failed maths but he really tried. And recently as alleged grown-ups I asked Alex how you “know” you’re with the right person. He told me that sometimes you’ll find someone that’s a blast to go to a party with but you could never imagine having to wait in a queue with them. He said that whatever the activity or situation, it was always better when Tiane was with him. I told you my brother was the smart one in the family.
Tiane, you’re hilarious, you’re refreshingly honest, you have all these secret talents, like being able to whip up a Care Bear costume at short notice and you always stand up for what you believe in. You have made my brother incredibly happy and if Alex turns out to be half as good a husband as he has been a brother then you have a wonderful life ahead of you.
I’d like to finish with some advice from Alex’s favourite Greek philosopher, Homer… Simpson; “Be generous in the bedroom. Share your sandwich.”
To the bride and groom, I hope you love each other as long as Snape loved Lily Potter, which is to say, always.

— Oliver in Saving the People Who Save People
Kaziver is the best friend/brother-like pairing of Kaz and Oliver. It was shown in the episode of Pranks for Nothing where they hug and say they love each other. They balance each other out. Oliver is the look before you leap guy while Kaz does things without thinking. Oliver and Kaz even have close birthdays where as seen in Pranks For Nothing, Oliver is three days older than him. They always work together. They will always be there for each other, and will always have each other's back.

How would it feel like if you…
✔ Connected to yourself on a deeper level and loved yourself unconditionally
✔ Created boundaries & prioritized yourself
✔ Owned your success and felt fulfilled in your relationships & work
✔ Cultivated supportive, deep and loving relationships with people you feel seen by
As a transformational coach, I work with empath, who are deep feelers, experience the world by feeling and are highly sensitive, feel empowered and in charge of their lives, using their sensitivity to create the life they love, rather than hold them down.


The Tiger's best friends are Horses or Dogs. Their mortal enemies are Monkeys (dang dirty apes).
To find out how other animal signs relate to the Tiger, consult the list below.
L E G E N D
-- Not good together.
-- Needs work.
-- Sexual attraction.
Rat Tigers and Rats need to learn how to compromise. One should
expect some dramatic clashes of temperament. They make good friends but lack any true passion.
Ox The Chinese say that this could be one of the worst matches possible.
Still, despite the probability of a horrible outcome, the Ox and the Tiger are drawn to each other. Their temperments
will most likely clash.
Tiger What happens when you put two dominating, individualistic creatures together?
A lot of posturing and a potato sack of arguing.
Rabbit The differences between Rabbits and Tigers somehow manage to weld them together
and make them better people.
Dragon A relationship full of guts, arguing, and serious lovemaking. Sparks are abound
to light their passionate fuses.
Snake Two many big differences for this relationship to work. Different outlook, different lifestyle
and different objectives. Survey says: "Not going to happen!"
Horse A Rip-Roaring Action Thrill Ride! In all seriousness,
the adventures the Horse and Tiger insure an exciting life together.
Sheep A relationship were both parties have TOO much respect each other. The two animals exert so much effort not
to offend each other that they are never really comfortable. An excellent working relationship but a crummy marital one.
Monkey No. Under no circumstances should a Tiger and Monkey date. This relationship is deeply frustrating and will have
the two partners climbing up walls and clawing at each other's throats.
Rooster The misunderstandings between Roosters and Tigers can create problems in their relationship. Both have to be ready to
communicate to make it work.
Dog Mutual admiration and respect make this relationship a winning team and solid union.
Pig A good humored relationship that keeps both parties smiling. A union bound by friendship
and common interests.


I love my mother very much. By now, I've lost four relatives who mattered a lot to me, and sometimes, I imagine my mother dying too. (Death is on my mind a lot. I have this feeling that if I think very hard about death, then maybe death won't come because he'll be too ashamed to move while the flashlight of my regard is on him.) But when I think about my mother's death, I feel happy for her, because I think deep down, it's something she has wanted for a long time. I don't even know why she hangs on. Does she feel that she has to take care of me and my siblings? I know she won't cook or clean up regularly if I didn't live here. I'm the same way. When I was living alone, I just say "Fuck it" to dinner and leave dishes lying around. My mother and I are fairly alike, and she has told me early on that I'll never be her "favorite" because of that. She thinks there's something wrong with me, because she has always thought something was wrong with her. I don't think she likes it here on Earth. Like a lot of intuitives, we both feel like aliens, strangers sojourning in a world not our own. Except I think that I have work to do here, and I think she no longer feels that way. She wants to go home to heaven. She wants to be raptured now. She wants, essentially, death.
But I will miss her very much. I know I'll miss the way she whistles while she works even though it drives me batshit crazy right now. I'll miss her cooking. I'll miss the way she comforts me when I'm sad. All the crazy things she does, like feeding rice to the feral cats even though the rice just rots and grows maggots outside, I'll miss that too. Well no, maybe not that last part. And I know a lot of people will miss her too. She's a lot braver, stronger, and more important to people than she gives herself credit for.
She's dying inch by inch with diabetes. It's hard for her to climb up stairs. Her hands swell. She has massive headaches, so bad she can't get up. She has a missing tooth she won't take care of. I try to bug her to take care of herself, but she won't. I told her I'd pay for a dentist, but she doesn't want my dentist. I told her to find her own, she hasn't found one yet. This was a month ago.
She believes that the world will end soon, but that's Lord Slaughter's thesis, isn't it? He says he wants to destroy the world, but in reality, he just wants to destroy himself.
I wish I could help her. I wish my love for her wasn't so shot through with annoyance, helplessness, sadness, and miscommunication. I wish I could talk to her about God, but she won't recognize him from my eyes. I wish I could tell her I love her, and not have it come out as inadequate -- because in her eyes, I will always be inadequate and flawed, because in her mind I'm like her, but the "unsaved" version of her. Everything I do will always be useless. Everything I say will just be monkey-noises. I am just a deluded non-believer to her, and whenever I express skepticism, it's just a non-believer attacking a poor, martyred believer. She doesn't believe that I come from a position of love. But I do love her, very much. But nothing I do makes an impression. Nothing I say matters, because I don't matter, not as a person she can respect anyway. Not as a person who is Real, part of her community of faith.
We had a talk tonight. We were separated by a round table about a meter wide, but it felt like a lake in the night and neither of us had boats. I felt detached from myself. I could feel her thinking about how I thought about her. Like I could see a puppet with my face in her head, saying: "This is insane. End of the world, lizards from outer space? Insane. I'm a poor, misguided dupe of the lying powers of this world, and I don't beliieeevvve." But that puppet of me in her head is not the real me. I don't think she's insane, she is very rational. She just wants to go home.
And I don't want her to leave.
I have an app on my phone, where I track my moods and activities. You can customize the activities and give them their own little icons. Today, my activities were church, chores, exercise, and crying. I use the crying one a lot. I'm tired now.


Christopher Barry Devonside, 18
By the time he was 16, Chris was taller than me. He used to walk past me and pat me on the head and say, 'Hello, little mum. I used to think you were big'. I loved him too much to tell him off. He had a maturity beyond his years, a realisation that the good times should be savoured as they wouldn't last forever.


July 12, 2009
There was a disturbing (to me) incident which I will share with you all today. It involves a young couple who were in front of me in line for brunch at the mission. He's is about 6' she is around 5'4" both early to mid twenties. He is hitting her, grabbing her face roughly between his fingers, twisting her arms, pulling her hair and holding her down when she asks to get up. This is all taking place in the spirit of affectionate horseplay. As I watch this all I am thinking is, "I don't want to be around those two, if that boy gets drunk or angry".
Partner violence is an insidious thing, it never starts with a punch. Males and females can both become victims. If your new partner starts trying to separate you from your friends and family, by accusing them of not liking him/her. If they make you feel guilty about spending time with others, that is a warning sign not to be ignored. Trying to control what you wear, when and where you go or how you do things...warning sign number 2. Embarrassing you in public so you will prefer not to go out. Berating you,...If he calls you a stupid slut, HE DOESN'T LOVE YOU!!!! And the subtle introduction of violence into otherwise innocuous interactions, such as I witnessed today. All indicators of a troubled person whom you should probably distance yourself from. RUN don't walk.
I wish I could teach every young person to love themselves, first and best. Treat everyone with respect and kindness...demand nothing less for yourself from others...especially from the one person who is supposed to love you. I often hear woman in abusive relationships say "...but I love him". My response is if you really love him don't let him go on thinking violence is an acceptable way to handle his feelings. One day he could kill someone or at the very least do jail time for assault. This is equally true for men in abusive relationships...you can't stop the violence but you can stop it from happening to you. Tell your partner to get help or leave. Battered women's support groups excuse staying in these relationships by saying that 50% of women murdered by abusive partners were murdered after attempting to leave the relationship. That of coarse means that the other 50% stayed...endured continuing abuse for possibly decades and ended up dead anyway. I'm not seeing a downside to the exit plan. This is not particularly a homelessness issue... It happens in the nicest neighbourhoods too, as movies of the week will attest. But the issue is front, in my mind so that is my rant for today TTFN


The traits that characterize NPD and other personality disorders tend to remain pretty constant over time.
These traits also show up in multiple areas of life. So, someone with characteristics of NPD won’t just show narcissistic behaviors at work or around family and friends. You’ll eventually begin to recognize the signs in most of their interactions.
In a romantic or sexual relationship, key traits that characterize NPD can absolutely extend to all domains of your relationship, including the bedroom.
That said, you may not always notice specific behaviors right away, especially when your partner makes a dedicated effort to present a different side of themselves.
When a sexual partner exhibits symptoms of NPD, you might notice some of the following.
Sure, sex can be a lot of fun. Purely physical, no-strings-attached sex can be perfectly satisfying — as long as that’s what you and your partner both want.
In a relationship, sex (plus post-coital cuddling and pillow talk) also helps you connect with your partner on an intimate level. It doesn’t just feel good, it also promotes bonding and increased closeness.
But partners with symptoms of NPD may have little or no interest in building intimacy once they’ve accomplished their goal of sexual gratification.
If you try to talk about your feelings or the relationship, they might offer some token participation but seem bored or disinterested and quickly change the subject to how they feel.
People who display narcissistic behaviors generally have a high opinion of themselves. They may consider themselves special, uniquely gifted, and more important than anyone else.
In bed, this can sometimes translate to putting their own pleasure first. They may want you to satisfy theirneeds, and if yours don’t get met, well, that’s not really their concern.
That said, self-importance can also mean that they could want to satisfy you so you can praise their skills and tell them how considerate they are as a partner.
So, instead of sharing how much fun you had together, they might want you to describe, in great detail, just how great they are at sex and how much you enjoyed the encounter.
They might look for this validation and approval every time you have sex. When you don’t offer the admiration they’re hoping for, they might press you for further compliments or even get angry.
Let’s say you mention something you didn’t like or you suggest something to try in the future.
“I don’t love it when you bite my neck.” “Please don’t hold my head when I’m going down on you.” “I think it would be really fun to try sex standing up.”
It’s absolutely valid to express your own needs and preferences. Yet even when you do so respectfully, comments like these might challenge their perception of themselves as the “best” partner.
So, they might respond by dismissing your request, pointing out “flaws” in your appearance or performance, or making unkind remarks.
“You always seemed to like it before.”“I only try to keep your head still because you’re not very good at that. I’d never finish otherwise.” “What would you know? It’s not like you’re that exciting in bed.”
Narcissism is often characterized by a sense of entitlement, so a partner with symptoms of NPD might assume you’ll jump at the chance to have sex whenever they’re in the mood.
After all, they might reason, shouldn’t the chance to have sex with someone so attractive and talented delight you?
When you don’t want to have sex, they might:
try to make you feel guilty by saying you don’t care about themaccuse you of cheatingcall you names compare your performance to past partnersthreaten to leave you or have sex with someone else
You may not automatically recognize these behaviors as abuse. You might even start to wonder whether not wanting to have sex makes you a bad partner and you really are the one at fault.
These manipulation tactics fall under the umbrella of sexual coercion, however. You can consider them calculated attempts to make you feel bad and give in to what they want.
No one deserves sex.
A partner might feel a little disappointed when they want to have sex and you don’t. But in a healthy relationship, they’ll respect your decision and your boundaries, and they won’t pressure you to change your mind.
Narcissism typically involves a lack of empathy.
Low empathy doesn’t make someone completely incapable of understanding other people’s feelings.
But it does mean they may not spend much time thinking about the impact of their behavior. They might even seem unaware that other people even have feelings.
If your partner displays symptoms of NPD, you might get the impression that as long as they get what they want, nothing else matters.
Maybe they have a very detailed and specific outline of how your encounters should play out. They tell you what they want to do, in what position, and what you should wear to bed and say during sex. They don’t ask your opinion or consider that you might want to try something else.
This can leave you feeling more like an object than a partner.


Just as the mysterious beyond is a terrifying place full of mysteries, strangeness, and fears, girls are probably the epitome of mysterious. Us men just don't seem to understand this strange strange gender. You can never understand a girl and her feelings. She may be all nice and warm outwardly but internally she can be plotting to destroy the world. No joke. On the flipside, they can be the most obnoxious, stuck up person but inside, a tender, humble character. Why is that? Hence guys always misread girls. I don't know what it is but a girl has these manipulative charms that leave the male species scratching their head on what the heck is going on. We'll probably think you're flirting with us because you feel attracted to us and have a crush on us but in reality you just want the attention so you can toy with us. Ok thats a little extreme and I hope none of my readers are that type of female. But you get what I'm saying. Its so hard to interpret the subtle messages girls send. We, the male species, do not do subtle. We do straight up, in your face. If a girl hints that she wants a glass of water by bringing up everything possible and beating around the bush, we're gonna think everything but the fact that you want a glass of water. Rule of thumb, talking to guys, be straight forward.
Its definitely hard to deal with if the guy assumes that the girl has a crush on him. Many of us fell into this category of helpless romantics because of the crazy mixed signals girls send. For example, when a girl giggles whenever shes around you or you can tell that she is bashful after telling you a compliment, what does this mean?! All I know is that girls are pretty fascinating.
Girls are born with the following:
1) An innate ability to feel sympathy for anyone.
2) The ability to somehow talk about such a simple topic and bring irrelevant topics.
3) The ability to conceal their true intentions/feelings
Scary. I think I can speak on behalf of all men past and present when I say we've all been fooled by a girl's charm. Maybe its natural for them to look pretty and attractive but sometimes, we get pulled in by the subtlest of actions. Why can't girls confess their feelings first sometimes? Why must it always be up to the guy to muster up the courage and the balls to ask the world changing question? Its wonderful if we get the girl but its just plain awkward when she rejects you and you stay "just friends". Hence guys have a difficult time confessing their feelings. We assume that all your actions are ways of flirting. We assume that you're indirectly asking us to ask you out. Or maybe thats just how you are and we're completely misinterpreting your casual communication skills as flirting. This is not to say that girls are evil in any way. Hope no one got that vibe from this post. All I'm merely saying is that girls are mysterious. Period. No more no less. Us guys love to see girls and be around girls. Its like that missing part of life that gets filled up. We enjoy your company, we really do. Its just that we often misinterpret everything you guys say or do. We can't live with you, can't live without you. Simple yet so mysterious. The life and workings of the female will always be located in the mysterious beyond of the male's brain.

According to Arteta: “I talked to him the day after I signed the contract and he advised me on two or three things.
“To be honest he was really nice to me. “He advised me on the areas to live, about the team-mates, about the Club and how good it is and the people here. It was very good.
“We are not friends because we have never played together, but we know each other because we have some friends in common." The 29-year-old midfielder enthused.

This lack of missing you could be another one of the signs your husband doesn’t love you. #10 He is irritated when you try to talk to him about your relationship. Women usually do like to talk about their relationship problems, but if a husband is still committed to making his marriage work, he will try his best to …
- You see, you can’t love your spouse unconditionally unless you’ve experienced the life-changing power of God’s unconditional love.! That’s why if you want to make God’s love real in your heart (and in your relationship), the Be Loved 5Rs Bible Study™ Journal is the perfect next step.
- When you and your spouse are talking, put down your cell phone, set aside distractions, and focus on each other. Find ways to bond over shared experiences: taking a walk, cooking dinner, going to a concert or sporting event, or playing a board game or cards together. Encourage and compliment your spouse. Make your moments together count.
- First and foremost, tell your spouse what is happening at your workplace and that you foresee problems. This can give you some time to adapt – both emotionally and financially. If you have a few
- So, you’ve been with your partner a while now, maybe you’re even married, and you’re pretty sure you’ve discussed it all. You probably know more than you ever wanted to know about your partner.

Your Relationship Desires
Is your relationship on the rocks, tired, or limping along?
Are you bored, tired of the same old, same old?
Do you wonder why some women have a magnetic way with men?
Are you worried that your relationship may not last much longer?
Do you love your partner deeply but find yourself worrying that you’re destined for a life of monotonous monogamy?
Have you been thinking about ending the relationship yourself or are you worried that your partner is going to end the relationship
Do you fear your spouse might start looking elsewhere for satisfaction?
If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, my heart goes out to you. We’ve all wondered these things and been in these types of situations at some point in our lives and they are never easy. In fact, relationships are often times our greatest source of happiness and can be our greatest source of despair.
What Can I Do About It?
I offer a 15 minute one-on-one consultation to women who are ready to do something about their situations, and who have a powerful desire to create a legendary relationship.
Is This For Me?
This session is for you if you know you just can’t settle for less anymore, but you don’t know what to do or where to start. You’re tired of settling for less. You know what you want, but you’re not crystal clear on the details yet. You are either going to make it or break it, and you’re ready to do what it takes because you love this man deeply, but more importantly, you want to learn to love yourself first and foremost.
You want him to show up for you, to want you, to treat you with great value. You’re tired of being taken for granted. You have, in essence, had enough and you realize that to change this, you’ve got to take responsibility for yourself and be the change you want to see. The problem is, you were never taught how to be powerful in your vulnerability. You have no role models for charisma, sensuality, and that certain something that some women exude. If only you had this, you would have men eating out of your hands. Especially that man you love so much.
You’re done with settling and you’re ready to invest in yourself, your relationship, and a better future of harmony, deeper love, and fulfillment.
This Session Is Not For You If:
This is not the session for you if you are completely convinced that everything in the relationship is his fault, and aren’t willing to look at what you can do to shift the energy.
It’s also not a good fit if you just want a free short coaching session but are not willing to invest in your relationship with the kind of work it’s going to take to make significant changes. The changes you’re seeking are going to take some time and discipline.
It may not be your thing if you aren’t willing to do the homework, try things you’ve never tried before, or make a commitment to yourself for the long haul.
It’s not a good fit if you’re unwilling to invest financially in coaching that can and will change your life.
What Happens In This Session?
In this session we will:
=> Create a crystal clear vision for the kind of happy relationship you’d like to have
=> Uncover hidden challenges that may be sabotaging your relationship success
=> You’ll leave this session renewed, re-energized and inspired to turn your current relationship into the relationship of your dreams (or know if it’s time to get out)
=> Create a plan of action and set up a weekly coaching appointment. You’ll leave inspired and armed with immediate steps you can take to turn this around.
To claim your 15 minute “Your Orgasmic Relationship Session” simply click reply and answer the following questions:
- How long have you been in this relationship?
- On a scale of zero to 10 how important is it for you to save this relationship?
- What are the three biggest challenges you are facing in your relationship?
Be sure to include your name, email address and phone number when you request your session so that we can get in touch with you to schedule your session by emailing firstname.lastname@example.org
Blissings & Blessings,

Eve is madly in love with Hugh
And Hugh is keen on Jim.
Charles is in love with very few
And few are in love with him.
Myra sits typing notes of love
With romantic pianist's fingers,
Dick turns his eyes to the heavens above
Where Fran's divine perfume lingers.
Nicky is rolling eyes and tits
And flaunting her wiggly walk.
Everybody is thrilled to bits
by Clive's suggestive talk.
Sex suppressed will go berserk,
But it keeps us all alive.
It's a wonderful change from wives and work,
And it ends at half past five.
Unless the mood takes me, or I receive requests to the contrary, enough now of levity, back to the serious matter of poetry in September.


He turned to her, “it’s been wonderful working with you. I wish you you the best.” She smiled and replied, “to you as well!” Then she opened her arms for a friendly embrace.
He took her in his arms and kissed her softly on the mouth, their tongues intertwining, and she rested in his arms. The kiss lasted for several moments and she pulled away, the back of her hand to her mouth, shock blooming on her face.
“Did I misread that?” He smiled as she turned and fled the room. She was, of course, married to some dunderhead Indian bloke to whom she’d been betrothed her entire life. That’ll give her something to think about as he chuckled to himself. I’m due for a long vacation.


April 15th, 2012
I know that I may sound a bit old-fashioned but I just talked with my oldest sister about this and she says that I’m just too conservative. But I really feel strongly that when a guy asks a girl out on the first date, when the bill arrives it should be the guy that pays. It’s just the thing to do to make her feel special and his best chance to impress his date.
Then on later dates and different circumstances, if the girl agrees in advance to go “dutch” then that’s OK. But the first date is all about impressing the other person, and a guy who comes off as broke or cheap just isn’t going to make the cut. So that is my opinion and I’m sticking to it.


Yabou’s “Gone To Waste” is the healthy breakup song we all need.
Some relationships are not meant to succeed, which is a sad reality. We all know it too well; we meet, we love, we fight, we go.
The German Talent aka Yabou captures those feelings in his latest track “Gone To Waste.” Born in the city of Stuttgart, Yabou wants the world to listen to his take on what a breakup should sound. The track is produced by Dutch’s Dave Nunes. The duo came together with a serious topic yet giving us a feel of tranquility. Yabou’s music has reached over 1 Million Spotify Streams and counting. The people are responding to his songs and his vocal abilities. The soulfulness of his songs vibrates through the Bluetooth speaker I am listening to right now.
Keep coming back to Neffwork.com as we follow Yabou on this musical journey. He may be breaking up with his partner but his relationship with the industry is just beginning. “Gone To Waste” is here, your partner is not.
“It’s about accepting that it’s healthier to let go instead of lying to yourself and your partner to make it work somehow but also about breaking free/moving on in life.”– Yabou


October is Domestic Violence Awareness and Support Month!
If you have ever experienced your partner hiding your birthcontrol, demanding you no longer take birthcontrol, discuss or attempting to impregnate you against your will or without your knowledge you are not alone. This is not a rarity. But it also is not your fault and you do not deserve how your partner is treating you.
Please click the link for more information.
You can go to planned parenthood for birth control your partner wouldn’t have to know about.
People really do that? What the fuck?
Hunter Pence: a summary
Just darker and darker…
You deserve to date someone who’s proud to be seen with you. Who holds your hand in public and tells their friends about you. Not someone who hides you away and is ashamed. Remember that.
I still need to know what dog this is
It is the Caucasian Shepherd Dog aka Russian Bear Dog. This picture below is just a PUPPY.
Cute little marshmallows
this makes me so happy
Wait. Is that big marshmallow licking that little marshmallow?
Is it a… cannibal?
I think it’s the marshmallow’s mom and it’s trying to comfort the little marshmallow
Maybe it’s a habit specific to the marshmallow species

Caroline: I’m so afraid of what everyone will say behind my back. Still, I have to accept that… I love you. I love you a-and I don’t want to be with Matt or Tyler or any of those other guys. I just want you. Please say you love me back. Please.

One of the most difficult aspects of a relationship breakdown is implementing arrangements for the children's well-being and their future.
At the end of the day you, as parents, are best placed to know your children, their routine and what arrangements are most likely to work for your family. In addition to the Easy Separation Process there are also some very useful courses and programs available for separated parents to assist in the transition and redefining your relationship to that of effective co-parents.
While ending a relationship is never going to be painless, our goal is to help you sort out parenting arrangements in a respectful way which allows you both to move forward with dignity and optimism.
Unlike traditional negotiations which largely occur through correspondence, the Easy Separation process involves face-to-face meetings. There are many advantages to this including time and cost savings but importantly, you are both present for all negotiations and drive the process and learn important communication techniques to help you moving forward.


The partner dance is a microcosm of personal relationships and human connection. Through taking a conscious look at how we play our part in a partner dance we can reflect on how we ‘do’ our relationships as we move through life. This work can help us reflect on all relationships that we have in our lives, from our work/colleague relationships to our friendly neighbour relationships, but it is especially powerful when it comes to our more intimate relationships.
We need connection with other people more than ever in our lives, so this is a space for you to interact and connect with others through dance. Classes are informal, you don’t need to bring a partner or have any experience with dance, dance is for all an you can dance no-matter who you are.
Through guided exercises and music you will be invited to play around with what works for you and your body. You will be encouraged to connect, play and create with other people in the class.


Nothing is better than to meet up with good old friends during the festive.
Many years ago, I had a wonderful group of girl friends whom I called 'the monkeys'. We used to hang out together. We laughed, we talked, we cried together, we stood by each other... we were known as the 'five monkeys'.
As each one of us matured and got married, had kids and lived our own lives, we grew in our own ways but our hearts remained close. I had been away for more than nine years and though I don't get to see them often, they remain close and special in my heart. And I'm so glad we got together this Chinese New Year... we are all mothers now!(one of the monkeys couldn't make it for the gathering...)

I’ve been dating my boyfriend for a little over six months now. Now some say you can’t really know who your person is while still so young, but the circumstances that my boyfriend and I were in we believed couldn’t possibly be coincidental. He moved from Utah to North Carolina with his family the same year I moved from New York to North Carolina with my family. We both started working at the same place within a few weeks of each other even though I’d originally had no intention of working where I do now, and we’ve been there about a year. Here’s the thing. I was known for going through lots of guys, most of them didn’t make it more than a few weeks, maybe a month or two. That wasn’t necessarily their faults. It’s just that as I got to know them, I realized that I couldn’t imagine being with them for a longer period of time or having a future with them. It wouldn’t be fair to let them get attached and then let them go. However, I started my job in July of 2017, and I dated three guys between then and November 2017. That’s when I was put up front to cashier for the first time instead of being in the back for stocking. My now-boyfriend, Brett, wasn’t too good with the first time we met because as he put it, he’s not good with girls that he thinks are cute. So a few weeks pass by, we got along really well and I found that I’d never been happier to be around a person, even if it was during work. I gave him my number and that next day I was sick, so I had to stay home from school. I was miserable and could hardly breathe half the day because everything was congested up. But guess who kept me company throughout the entire day and got to know me? Brett, of course. We texted so often that it drove my parents crazy, because I’m usually the type to be constantly busy. A few weeks later we had our first date, and after that first date we were a couple. Six months later I’m still happy to be called his. My parents don’t like my boyfriend because they say he’s “not in my league.” Well, for me, he’s my Hallmark Guy, and they can’t change that. For those of you who do or do not know about Hallmark, literally all of the movies are romantic ones. It usually so happens that “coincidentally” the guy and the girl meet, and they fall in love by the end, even if it’s the most unlikely couple imaginable. The guy is always so sweet and looks at the girl like she’s his world. That’s me and my boyfriend. The most unlikely couple, but here we are, and if I could go back, I still wouldn’t choose differently.
Thanks for joining me!

I held you close for one last time, just as the funicular reached the terminus. This was the first time in our lives I had the courage to tell you how I felt. I know the timing wasn’t right, but I got the feeling this would be the last time we were going to see each other, so I just had to say it.
We were born 2 weeks apart and have been constantly in each others company for the entirety of our 18 years. I had girlfriends through high school, but soon left them when they couldn’t get along with you. Just as I am sure your boyfriends jealousy drove a wedge between you and them. None of them understood what we mean to each other.
Now you are leaving, off to see the world and study in Beijing. I know you will make good with your life and be all that you can be. I really don’t know how long it will take me to get over you, but I know that it will be equally hard for you. Though, from what you have said you have never felt anything but brotherly and sisterly love between us. I know I shouldn’t feel the way I do, but I can’t help it.
I just wish our fathers were not brothers.

I will tell you my parents Bob and Mary are closest to my heart. They have been there for me through all the good and bad. My Dad at 83 takes care of my Mom 75 who has dementia and extreme difficulty walking. My parents have been there for me through a divorce and have set an excellent example to my 3 teenage children. I have found the Circle of Love as I now take care of them just as they have taken care of me. They will always be close to my heart as well as my children. I love you Dad and Mom...<3


OK, 2011 is my banner year for more effective networking. So naturally, I clicked through the very effective headline from TalentZoo.com, In the Flesh: Effective Networking | TalentZoo.com.
Mark Macias offers five lessons learned from what reads like a serious press-the-flesh, push networking event. That’s what got me thinking. Successful (note how he defines it as “effective”) networking shows many of the same characteristics of relationship marketing.
It begins with engagement. That requires active listening and direct contact with your customer. It also requires affirmation.
Customization. You are what you dress, cautions Macias. It’s the same with relationship marketing. Your message needs to be scalable to the touchpoint of the relationship. You need to provide content and context that is meaningful to your reader.
It continues with enhancement. Active listening leaves room for reconnecting at future events, referring colleagues, or upping the level of the initial meeting from networking to collaborating or contracting.
It finds fulfillment in empowerment. Relationship marketing ultimately empowers the customer to take an action that is rewarding, positive, and concrete.
What’s your experience of networking as the ultimate level of relationship marketing?
Do you measure an ROI from networking events? Do you prepare and customize a message for each event? What’s the best lesson you can offer

In The Good Divorce, Constance Ahrons writes: "Is divorce good? The answer is a resounding 'no'." "But if divorce isn't good, is there such a thing as a good divorce? The answer is a resounding 'yes'."
Divorce brings many challenges for the whole family. Some parents feel guilty about how it will affect the family while other parents are too distracted by anger and resentment toward their ex-spouse that they lose sight of how divorce is affecting their children. In any case, everyone in the family benefits when parents work together and cooperate fully for the benefit of the children.
Co-parenting coaching is designed to provide support, education and guidance to parents who are separated, divorced or are in the process of separation or divorce. Co-parent coaching can help parents move from conflict to cooperation and deal with the transition of restructuring the family while providing consistency and reducing anxiety for their children.
Goals can include:
- understanding normal reactions to divorce
- healing the loss of the family unit
- learning ways to communicate more effectively
- establishing healthy boundaries
- minimizing stress during transitions between two homes
- creating and maintaining a consistent parenting plan for both homes
- making joint decisions (scheduling, school activities, holidays, etc.)
- adjusting to a blended family
