I said I would save the stories about Kurk and I for a later date, and well, it's definantly a later date. :)
Here's some background on us:
-We have been best friends for years (since I was 2 days old)
-We had sleep overs, and pick-a-nicks.
-We've been in the same classes at church since we were both little things.
-My dad and his dad are close and have been for years before we were even thought about.
-My dad quit attending church, while his dad became deacon.
-There were bets, until last August, that we would end up marrying. He is now married and I am not.
-We were inseperable.
-We have got into so much trouble that people know about, and more that people don't.
-And we love to snap towels... until I get welted up and bleeding and he comes to church the next morning with two black eyes, claiming he ran into a doorknob (not just the door) twice.
Well, back in highschool Mr. Goodytwoshoes wasn't as good as everybody thought. We use to do alot of mischievious things when our parents' backs were turned. We've slept together (and I don't mean the buddy-buddy footie jammy party in this context) many times, we spent Valentine's day together... alone, we had long talks about the perfect opposite sex, I wrecked his truck for goodness sakes! We covered for each other when one of us got caught. We would sneak out of our respectable houses just to hang out at the beach or in his neck of the woods. We were crazy!
Now back in August he called me up two weeks before his wedding to tell me that he wanted me there... IT WAS IN NEBRASKA! I have nothing against any state but I'm a poor college student. Anyways, he called me and said 'I would love to have my best friend here, I will even pay for her plane ticket out.' I respectfully declined stating that I couldn't just up and leave for that weekend because I already had plans with the boyfriend. But my actual reasons were 1) His wife does not like me at all, not even a teensy-insy bit. 2) I didn't get an actual handwritten/typed invitation. I found out from his dad two weeks before he called me. 3) I couldn't show up and know that (at that point in time) I still had the slightest 3rd grade crush on him. So I declined the invite making us a grow apart a little bit more than we already did when he left for college.
Well in April, his sister's wedding came around. I got an invite, I even RSVPed to their mom, telling her that I didn't want Kate to know I was coming. I even spent time going through my closest for something respectable to wear, I had the date requested off, and I had the boyfriend going with me. So, we headed to my hometown and showed up at the wedding. Kurk was a groom's man, and very upset when he saw that I showed up for Kate's but wouldn't for his. At the reception I paid compliments to the people I had come to see and to the wedding party. I even complimented Kurk on his purple vest and tie, they looked great on him. He pulled me outside and berated me and tried to make me feel horrible about not going to his wedding, and that's when I told him that his wife and I had a mutual distaste for each other. Again, making our rift bigger. I hadn't talked to him again until end of July/beginning of August and he pretended like nothing happened. So now we're all brought up to the fight we had last Sunday, all because I wouldn't hug him.
I talked to him yesterday, and we talked like we use to, except we discussed that we valued our friendship more than we valued finding new friends. We decided that we will be new friends, as if we just met, and that the past is the past and there are no more awkward feelings between us. And for the first time in almost two years I hugged him like I was five again, and it felt great! Though I wonder how long this 'new friendship' will last for we seemed to always be fighting :)
And as my man Humphrey Bogart says in Casablanca, "Here's to the beginning of a beautiful friendship."
The week has started off good, hope it stays that way, and I wish you all a good beginning of the week that ends great!


I wish everyone happy, exciting and successful 2013, filled with new adventures and loots of smiles! As for me, I'm sure it will be, as I'm planning to spend it together with my love Svetlio, and as long as we're together, it cannot be bad :D We celebrated out 5th anniversary on that day! We laugh so much together, he makes me so so happy and is my inspiration to do the best of every single day :) I love you so much baby, thank you for what you are!
P.S. excuse our post-new-years-eve-celebration-faces :D

We need loving relationships – with ourselves and with others. When we understand our own needs and learn to take responsibility for ourselves, we begin to make healthy choices in our relationships with others. We need management tools and skills to help us meet our needs and to develop and maintain loving relationships with others.

Polly and I talked it over and she picked this excerpt from my debut novel, COURAGEOUS CAIN. Enjoy!
When I was growing up, a dog was my best friend and companion, my confidant and sidekick. That had not changed in the years since. No human relationship came close to what I shared with Fletcher. With him there was no pressure to be something I wasn’t. There were no failed expectations. No lies or scheming or cheating. Human love almost always comes with strings. The I’ll love you ifs. I’ll love you if you marry me, support me, give me children, give me money, screw me three times a week and twice on Saturday.
Dogs, on the other hand, love us regardless of our looks, our failures, our faults, or our moods. Their willingness to forgive the worst in us says more about the humanity of dogs than it does about our own.
A good dog will never break your heart like a man will. Stick that in a greeting card and mail it to your sister.

Last Sunday we talked about the gifts and promises we receive in good times – especially the promise of God’s steadfast presence and love. Sometimes those things are surprises, or we are almost oblivious to them. We fail to give thanks and don’t realize until much later, when we are mired in more difficult times, that we were given promises for a “way through.” Not a way around, not a way to duck life’s realities – but a way through. Much of that way through is paved, bordered, and sheltered under the trees of relationships – sometimes relationships that we thought at the time were not the most significant in our lives. Then we discover all the people that have “been there” for us all along.
We are called to be observant and grateful people in the present – to note the kindnesses and caring of others, even when they might be a bit awkward. Receive them as God’s presence and promise of love in your life; promise of a way through. And then you might just be surprised by grace.
Peace be with you,


I look back and laugh. We didn’t want each other at first. We thought we “loved” others. We both agreed they were nothing to us. Just fuck ups and a waste of time. Realized our wrongs to bring us to the rights. Our mistakes brought us together. In each other, we found something REAL, something we never felt before, TRUE LOVE. Ain’t nobody breaking us apart. It’s me and you still going strong, stronger than ever. No bitch will ever come between. They can try, but we remain loyal. Through thick and thin, good or bad. Your mine. Always was, always will be. Love the fuck out of you, foreal.
& for you haters, just keep creepin’ cuz I already know you are.


....Like when my parents both give me the eye behind each others' back. You know, that look that says, "don't you think he's (she's) crazy"?? It happened on both sides the other day, just a few hours apart. I had a hard time keeping myself together. It was amazing.
The things I see that no one else does.


Hello again, everyone. I know it has been a couple weeks since my last blog post, and even longer since my last Conversations post, but I am finally getting time to spend online, and I couldn’t be happier!
This week’s discussion topic is one that is a little weird for me, since I do have a bit of social anxiety coupled with being the walking billboard for introversion, and therefore, friendships work differently for me sometimes. So I will be discussing my online friendships vs. my friendships IRL, and hopefully it won’t come off too weird. Let’s begin.
My Friendships Online vs. My Friendships IRL
My online friendships are something that I treasure immensely. Because I am so exclusive to one community of people, the bookish community, it’s easier for me to be a little more comfortable with the side of me that my daily companions don’t get to see much of. Although I have gotten more comfortable over the years admitting my love for YA, there’s still that lack of understanding where I come from, or even my ability to talk about the books I’ve read, since most people I know just don’t read at all.
The friendships I have online are genuine. I love my book clubs and my Insta friends. But one thing they do lack is the deeper side of a friendship. Yes, we get to talk about books, but we don’t talk about home life, personal struggles, or anything like that. I would love to have friendships like that online, but none of mine have reached that far.
Real life friendships do give the benefit of being a little deeper. I have one best friend and I have my boyfriend, who is basically my bestest friend. I know I can talk to either of them about absolutely anything, and it’s the same for them. They love me enough to let me nerd out, and my best friend is just as Harry Potter obsessed, so she understands. But our friendships revolve less around our hobbies and interests and more around one another as individuals.
All in all, friendships, online and IRL, are what you make them. If you want your online friends to be the people you can talk about personal stuff with, then make it happen. If you only want your IRL friendships to be the people you can connect to online, then that’s fine. As for me, it’s just a different type of connection, and a different part of myself, that comes through.
Now, I said earlier that friendships are weird for me, and I have yet to express why. The thing is, while most people go out with their best friends, go to lunch, and just generally see each other, I don’t really do that. I spend time with my boyfriend, obviously, because we live together. But as for my best friend, I have yet to hang out with her outside of work. And I would say we have been friends for over a year now.
Not to mention, she’s like one of my only friends. Yeah, I get a long with other people, but to actually say that someone is my friend is more difficult for me. Apart from my best friend and boyfriend, I would say I have one other person in my life that I would call a friend.
Like I said, I have a bit of social anxiety, and that contributes. Doing new things makes me nervous as hell, and that includes hanging out with even my best friend for the first time. But really, after a day of work I just want to be home with my boyfriend and our cats. That’s all. I don’t really enjoy surrounding myself with people, or even one person. That’s the ever-present introvert inside of me.
So I think for those reasons, there is less of a disconnect between online and real life friendships for me. I love the different levels that each group of people see of me and the different ways we interact. And I appreciate each one the same either way.


Sunday, May 11, 2008
I am not sure where to start. What words can express the level of appreciation, love, and respect I have for someone who has done so much for me and continues to do so much for my family. Mom has been there for me whenever I needed her and above and beyond that she is also one of my best friends. I am so glad that I live near both her and my Dad so we can be a part of each others lives.
I didn't fully appreciate how much work she did raising me and my sisters until we began raising two boys in our house. Which leads me to the second mother in my life, my wife - mother of my two sons. She is great and a wonderful Mom to her boys. This week she got a great Mother's Day present. She has 3 days by herself at meetings across the state. I hope you enjoy your time by yourself Laura! Today we had Mom and Dad over to our house and I made breakfast. After Laura left my Mom was watching the boys tussle in the living room and she commented that if we had a girl in the house she would have to be tough. My response was "she is".
I also have two wonderful sisters who are also great Mothers as well. They each have two kids and we really enjoy the times we get to visit. They are also great friends too and I am sorry they are not closer.
I really appreciate having these women in my life. They are all great ladies and have made such a positive difference in my life. Hope you had a great day Jean, Laura, Chris and Cathy. Love you - John

Don’t do that. Don’t skip stages in your life. You’re 19, kiss a few boys and wear your heart on your sleeve. There will come a time when you’re 39 and stuck in a suit, wondering why the hell you were so eager to grow up in the first place.

She told me she never has and never will take nudes, nor does she want to receive any from me. Think you could use some dating help, too? Gauge her responses and then ask if she has ever sent someone a naughty pic. The techniques below are for the girls that really like you.
But then I managed to ruin it — I was drunk and we were texting late at night and I ended up kind of prodding her to send me some nudes, or at least some scantily clad pics.

In a world of people everyone has family, or at least people you can call family. Being gay sometimes puts a damper on the relationship one has with his or her family. I find that people are okay with someone being gay. It’s not the choice they have the problem with. Their problem is proximity. How close that person is to you is how the thing is rated.

I’m sure you were good at loving your friend through good and bad days. Which, if nothing else, affirms that you will be an excellent best friend and maybe even spouse for someone else someday. The Facebook obsession of amassing 'friends' creates the impression that some users are wildly more sociable than others.
Addictions expert David Smallwood claims that many who use Facebook become hooked on the urge to acquire more friends in an attempt to appear popular and successful.
They’re the ones you laugh with, the ones you cry with and they often know you better than your own family.
So it makes sense that some of us are inclined to fraternise with friendship when both parties are of the same sexual orientation.
And while I can’t say this is accurate 100 percent of the time, I can tell you that I’ve never witnessed a situation where at least one of the parties wasn’t waiting, hoping even, that things would progress. Because an opposite-sex best friendship is a marriage without the commitment. Hear me say this: There is nothing wrong with you, and I’m sure you’re spot-on in regard to the red flags. Losing someone who was your best friend, dare I say someone you love, is one of the great hardships of humanity. losing love is like a window in your heart, everybody sees you’re blown apart, everybody sees the wind blow.” And that’s what happening to you right now.
BFFs and spouses are built out of the same stuff, and I would argue that once you’ve found one, you very well may have found the other. If you’re not willing to concede that point, you’re either cheating your friend out of some part of you that you’re giving to your spouse or—much more terrifyingly—you’re giving something to your friend that should be your spouse’s alone. Even a same-gender best friend should come in as a distant second to your spouse—who’s your real BFF after marriage. However, because of your current or former position in your friend’s heart, you may be the last person who can speak into the relationship that (for better or worse) is now occupying the space that used to be yours. Right now, you are hurt and confused, mourning the loss and in some ways experiencing a breakup.

Happy wife happy life? But what about happy husband happy life…?
Is this never said simply because it doesn’t rhyme?
I always, ALWAYS hear the first phrase, never the latter. How is that fair? Husband and wife, we are equals. Give each other 100%.
Ladies, if you find yourself reading this, then let this be a reminder that we are not more deserving than our spouse when it comes to happiness. Mom’s are always saying they will raise their sons to treat a women right, but what about your daughters? Teach them to treat men right.
I understand there are good people, and there are bad people. But, there is too much expectation on singling men out for how they treat us. And I am talking about everything aside from common courtesy and being polite. Men need women to go the extra mile and find ways to make them smile. Even if it’s the little things.
So, here’s what I say. Let’s stop the stigma and treat men how they have been told to “treat” us.
… And that’s the tea.


Its 2012, presedential election campaigns will reach thunderous heights in next few days. 2008 saw a dramatic raise of Barack Obama with slogans shouting aloud of “Change”, “Yes We Can”, etc. These could be his election slogans!!!
“Dad, I like a guy and I don’t want you to search for my life partner”, shouted Sirisha; when her father was about to throw in a list of probable grooms list.
“Who is the Guy? why didn’t tell me about this earlier?” demanded Sirisha’s father, Mr. Shankar, a retired excise officer.
“Its Pradeep, we are in a relationship from past 2 years, we don’t want to get married before he is completely settled” replied Sirisha.
“Oh Pradeep!, isn’t he a Cop?” questioned Mr. Shankar.
“Yes, he is very good and honest” Sirisha was excited while replying, trying to have a good impression on her dad.
“He is not a Good Guy, if he is honest, trust worthy, how would he able to earn extra income if he isn’t corrupt” questioned Mr. Shankar with a sarcasm.


This is a short devotional digital book, a series of promises from fathers to daughters, designed for Christian fathers to read aloud to their daughters.
Many fathers have a deep desire to communicate their love to their children, but they often don’t know how. Many of them lack the necessary skills to relate to children on their level, some because they have no model or guidelines to follow. Most fathers, once given the tools and inspiration to connect with their kids, will make a valiant effort to understand their commitments and keep their promises.
This book helps a father communicate his love, his special kind of masculine love, to his daughter. Since it is written in the form of spoken words from father to daughter, it is ideal for reading aloud to younger girls. For older daughters, a father can study the promises and then give the daughter the book to read, opening up the possibility for discussion of these great fatherly commitments.
This book takes seven topics, focusing on what a father does for his daughter, the promises he intends to keep. Since men tend to be task-oriented, driven by duty and responsibility, this orderly layout will help them see the value of connecting with their daughters on an emotional level in order to fulfill their fatherly roles.


Just in time for Valentine’s Day, a reminder that tying the knot with someone means taking on his or her debts. And, according to a survey by CreditCards.com, how we feel about that seems to be a gender-specific thing.
About 70% of women would break it off if they found out their partner had lied about their ability to pay routine bills. That’s the same percentage of women who would stop seeing someone with a criminal history. 66% of women find secret credit card debt a relationship deal-killer, and 55% would cut it off if they found out a partner was heavily in debt.
For whatever reason, guys seem more…forgiving? Those same numbers for men are 50% (vs. 70), 50% (vs. 66) and 37% (vs. 55).
Other fun statistics?
- 57% of women, and 48% of men, say that a partner with debt is a turnoff.
- 57% of women, and 47% of men, think it’s OK to ask for their partner’s credit score before taking the plunge. (ooh, sexy!)
- 68% say that sharing money attitudes is important, BUT…
- 73% say that money causes the most arguments.
Why the gender differences in attitude? Totally unscientific but, with the wage gap, I imagine women are more worried about their future security, and that of their kids. There’s also the depressing notion (and everybody knows someone who has said this) that “we can never begin OUR lives because half of his paycheck goes to the Ex!”
SO… girls, guys –what do you think? Do these things matter to you? Have you ever jumped in blindly and later regretted it? Or did you work through it? What did you learn? Read the article, and let us know!

In Plato’s “Symposium,” he describes a “ladder of love” that begins with love for a single person.
He is speaking of the love that starts with attraction. If that relationship buds and the love progresses, the initial spark that provided “chemistry” grows into a concern for your mate’s well being.
Their goals and spiritual progress become important to you. If that is nurtured properly, Plato contends, that love will further bloom into a love for others, a concern for community.
Eventually love for that special someone who caught your eye leads to a love of politics. Sounds like a leap?


These past couple of days have been really hard for me. A person that I became very close with over the last couple of months or so has left me high and dry without a reason as to why. It's a very weird feeling talking to someone everyday for so long and before you know it, they're gone. I don't think I deserve this, maybe I do. Who knows?. She says "I'm doing this for you and one day you'll understand". I can't even to begin to think what that may mean. If i do, it will only make me more crazy than I already am.
I wish it didn't have to be like this and I wish she would at least be an adult about this and tell me why she's made this decision. She owes me that much. I don't know why this is impacting my life so much right now. I guess because I cared about her. I think I would be inhumane for me not to be hurt by this. All I know is, I don't wanna feel this anymore. I want my friend back and I want to be happy. You can call me lame for typing this but this will be the only way I can vent and maybe pull through this. I'm hoping you miss me too and one day we can fix this.


Now I will try to describe my friend in a few sentences. She is a girl, she has long hair, she is beautiful, she loves to take photos. I have been friends with him for 6 years․ She has hobbies, she likes to take photos of clouds and she likes sweets very much. Now I’ll describe her character. She is kind, sociable, and she likes to make new friends.


She accepts certain facts whereas Blanche fabricates ways around them. They fall out and fight it seems on a regular basis, but they are inexplicably attracted back to each other.
He works in the grease and muck and does not see it necessary to clean himself as often as Blanche, and yet she washes herself constantly. Blanche instead finds herself as a heartbroken, penniless victim of rape. The problem is that Williams never lets the two women work through these problems and move on.
She regrets telling Alan that he disgusted her and she defends her picture of him in an act of defiance against Stanley.
Blanche had been a schoolteacher, married Allan, a man she later discovered to be gay. He was often engaged with violent argume She bathes a lot, and this frustrates Stanley.
Related Papers. A Streetcar Named Desire is entirely focused on Blanche and her delusions. Lonely, she becomes a prostitute, who loses her teaching career when her sexual relationship with a teenager is found out.

November/December Merman Question
The workplace offers many temptations for married men in the form of short skirts, stylish haircuts, perfume, and women with smarts. What's the best way for a married man to stay on track in that environment?
A Concerned Short Skirted Woman
Dear Short Skirted Woman:
This requires two answers depending upon:
1) Are you one of the short skirted, stylish haired, perfumed, smart women in the workplace being bothered by a married man? If so, this answer is for you.
There is no excuse, and I repeat, no excuse for a man, married or otherwise to be getting off track in the office with his sexual pursuits. That went out with the two martini lunches! If you are being bothered by a particular man, ask him if he has read and memorized your company's sexual harassment policy. If not suggest he do so unless he wants to have a problem. (Then be sure to document this exchange with your friendly HR professional.) Most companies now days have or should have zero tolerance for sexual harassment! If the man is your direct supervisor go to the HR person first.
There is no excuse for unwanted sexual advances in the workplace no matter what you choose to wear, however you can help. If you are smart you are not wearing short skirts and too much perfume. Be professional and go classy conservative. Rely on you smarts to get ahead not your sex-appeal. Be sure to dress professionally, not provocatively. The key is to be professional in your attire and appearance. That will deter most men and let everyone know you are there to conduct business not hanky panky!
2) Are you are writing because you are concerned about your particular man being distracted in the work place? This answer is for you.
The answer easily applies to men and women – relationships in general. The best way for anyone to "stay on track" in the workplace is for their significant other to help them. Men are extremely easy to keep happy (way easier than you probably think) and as much as life together and love is a two way street if both partners do their job and keep each other satisfied there is far less chance that a stray skirt will turn more than his head.
Ostensibly men and women get married so they will have reliable companionship. Why do men and women seek companionship elsewhere? Because they aren't getting companionship in their primary relationship. Let's face it; a starving human is far more likely to consume any food in sight than one that is well fed. Relationships are the same way. ‘Feed' your partner and yes you will have him ‘eating out of your flipper!' Just make sure to give him the things he needs, not what you think he should have. As with any relationship that requires real giving, putting the other person ahead of yourself. It doesn't have to be false. In return, he will also ‘feed' you what you need.
A little T.L.C. at home will make the risk at work not worth the temptation. Not only that, real men have recognized women in the work place for their smarts, not their skirts!
Just remember, he is human and so are you, and a pretty girl is a pretty girl and as hard as we try to suppress ourselves….we look. For most, infidelity probably starts not with an actual affair but more likely with other problems in a relationship – that makes infidelity a result and symptom rather than the cause of marital problems.
Statistically many men and women have affairs…keep giving to each other and you won't become a statistic. And remember mermen – this street runs both ways!!!!


Lamenting the Friendzone, or: The Nice Guy Approach to Perpetuating Sexist Bullshit (via nyquilontherocks)
“If a girl has been told no, then she has only herself to blame for anything that happens next – but if a woman says no, then she must not really mean it. Or, if she does, she shouldn’t: the rejected man is a universally sympathetic figure, and everyone from moviegoers to platonic onlookers will scream at her to justgive him a chance”
This reminds me of 500 Days of Summer and other countless movies…
^^^^ That’s exactly what I was thinking while reading this. That’s why I don’t like guys that say that they always finish last because they are the “nice guys”, pf.
I love the film (bcuz of jgl and zooey’s presence by default) but there are plenty of things wrong with it.
Most people have the reaction (men and women)
“Oh well she’s a bitch, he’s so nice why wouldn’t you stay with him”
It’s sadder when I hear girls say it. It’s kind of annoying. Plus his character wasn’t that nice, he had some douche moments. He wasn’t perfect and neither was she. Like the bit where he’s talking to his friends in the cafe and calls her a skank because he saw her in the elevator and she said her weekend was “good” in a certain manner… where he thought she had sex with her gym instructor? NICE. I don’t know how anyone comes to that conclusion based on talking to someone for one second. Even if he was perfect, she’s not obligated to be with him just because he’s “nice”, she doesn’t owe anyone a relationship. And if you’re using the nice guy excuse then you’re probably already a douche anyway. You don’t get a free pass in life just because 1.you’re a guy 2. you’re nice. And you certainly won’t get it from a girl.
The screenwriter based 70-80% of it on his own experiences with his ex. Which clearly explains why we only see it through JGL’s character. It was tacky to lead him on but she never promised more than she gave and eventually did break it off before it went any further. People fail to pick up on the fact that he just didn’t listen, which pretty much happened for most of the relationship in the film. She clearly told him she didn’t want a relationship. I sense we’re pretty much set up to hate Zooey’s character even though we were never even really given enough info about her to make the assumption that she really is a bitch. Essentially her character is nothing more than a one dimensional because plot device really what can you expect from White Straight Hollywood writers?
Even JGL himself said in an interview agreed that his character never really listened to her or saw her as a real person. But idolised her because of his own miserable life and needed an escape route. Often the hardcore fangirls get carried away and go WOW WHAT A BITCH HOW dare she not be in a r/ship with a guy that LOOKS like jgl. If JGL looked like a fat homeless guy how many people would still be going “why wouldn’t she stay with him, he’s so nice!!”


Toxic relationships take a lot out of us. They leave us missing parts of ourselves that we don’t think we will ever be able to get back. amazing things, amazing things, amazing things
When you meet someone who is not toxic after going through a toxic relationship things can be a bit tricky. You see, your heart is still not whole and you are not the naive person you once were. You won’t be so easy to fall for anyone at this point.
That being said, when you finally do find someone who is able to break through the walls you have put up, someone who understands you and your struggles you will know. Someone with a good heart who finally was able to make you believe you could trust them. Sure, your heart is guarded and you may not be as head over heels as you would have been before but there are some interesting things going on within.
7 Things That Happen To You When You Finally Find Someone Who Isn’t Toxic:
1. You are afraid.
When you finally find someone new it is a scary feeling. I mean sure you want to love but you aren’t sure what it even is anymore. That being said, you can and will overcome your fears if you are with the right person.
2. You are thankful but guarded.
You are glad that this person has been brought into your life but you are still unsure as to where things will end up. You are guarded and rightfully so. There is nothing wrong with taking things slow.

act like you trust people, but don’t

Never text him when you’re sad
i just want a boy who touches me distractedly
like sitting watching a movie and he just kinds of drags his fingers over your skin while watching and he doesn’t have a motive he’s not trying to tickle you or be sexual with you he’s just touching your skin and feeling the shape of your bones under that skin like it’s physically comforting for him to know that you’re there right under his fingertips
oh fuck i didnt know girls liked when i did this
I don’t want just words. If that’s all you have for me, you’d better go.
1. Your skin may never be perfect, and that’s okay.
2. Life is too short not to have the underwear, the coffee, and the haircut you want.
3. Everyone (including your family, your coworkers, and your best friend) will talk about you behind your back, and you’ll talk about them too. It doesn’t mean you don’t love each other.
4. It’s okay to spend money on things that make you happy.
5. Sometimes without fault or reason, relationships deteriorate. It will happen when you’re six, it will happen when you’re sixty. That’s life.

The social rules for dating change from one generation to the next especially with our generation today. There was a time when a proper young man and woman could not speak to each other unless they had been formally introduced. There was also a time where they will court you and face the trials of your family just to allow him to take you out on your date or before you said the magic three letter word, YES. Then the times changed.
We cannot blame anyone as the world is fast changing, the technology is fast evolving, and how we communicate with one another, it’s no wonder that dating has now change. There are lots of dating now, from romantic dating, to mutual understating type of dating, to just a crush type one, and a lot more. Another one is femdom dating. Have you heard about it? For those of you who have not experienced the delights of a Femdom before and are wondering what a Femdom is, it’s a female dominatrix who takes part in sexual activity. These women love to dominate and humiliate, and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals of owning a sex slave of their very own.
The dating world can often feel like an endless quest. Many women aspire to dominate their men, and same-sex couples can enjoy power exchange, too. That’s why femdom dating is so popular but finding a good match in the vanilla world is hard; finding it on the kinky side can be even harder. Not everyone is a perfect match. It takes a lot of hard work to find and attract a suitable partner. There are lot of places where you can find someone as your partner like in the clubhouse, bar, from someone or even online.
Like I said, the world has evolve. There are many websites out there where you can find your suitable partner. One of the website I know and can be trusted is subs-and-doms.com. Regardless of you being a Mistress who is looking for a sub, a Master looking for a sub, or a sub looking for a Master or Mistress, this website is the right place. Subs-and-Doms is a BDSM community which caters for all your fetish needs as well as other BDSM categories including foot worship, financial domination, Leather, PVC, bondage, you name it, they have it. There are lots of people in their BDSM community who share the same enjoyment from BDSM as you.
When you’re looking for someone to date there come moments when you feel you’ve found the woman of your dreams. If you’re a submissive, a perfect woman is the one who is confident within her skin, independent and secure about herself and of course you match when it comes to the kinky stuff, right? Trust is always important and you will learn a lot about each other once you are together but first dates are a great chance to lay down the foundation of trust and let the other one know why you want her as a part of life.


If you ask any seasoned teacher about the best classroom management technique most probably all will say to start with building relationships. And I wholeheartedly agree but if you are a new teacher you probably wonder why and how to build relationships with students.
First the why, although they are kids there is so much they deal with that we are unaware of and you (as the teacher) may be the only stable thing in their life. And if a student doesn’t feel that you care then they will not care about learning. I have a student who when we returned from break that told me that he felt I didn’t like him. After talking with him I realized there were deeper things happening. He felt like I didn’t like him because I was the only teacher that communicated with his mom about his behavior and that I didn’t give enough positive feedback. He did admit that he could improve his behavior but he wanted me to also recognize when he does well. And I know that if he didn’t feel he could talk to me that he would have continued acting out and feeling that I didn’t like him. I always tell my team that scholars are not going to behave well for people they don’t like and relationships are the key.
However, do not fall into these pitfalls. Building relationships doesn’t mean becoming more of a friend than an authority figure. I’ve seen teachers sink because they joke and play around so much that when it’s time to get serious they can’t control the class. That’s when you see the talking back, defiance, and disrespect, or teacher yelling and blowing up and the kids don’t understand why they are in trouble.
Another pitfall is being insincere. We think kids can’t tell but they really can. Be authentic in your interactions with your scholars the relationships will come naturally.
So what are some ways to build authentic relationships with your scholars.
- Morning meetings are a great way to learn about your scholars and make sure you participate so they can get to know you.
- Morning greetings I’ve seen some fun and creative ways to greet your scholars in the morning. At the beginning of school I gave the option of hug fist bump or handshake now I only give hugs because that’s what they want. Not only my home room but several from my other sections come by each morning for their hug and tell me stories. Best part of my day!
- Our first week of school we ate lunch with our kiddos and got to know them.
- Recess is also a good time to build relationships
- Incorporating class discussions into your teaching
Building relationships is so important to classroom management that it’s quite impossible to teach without the relationships. So all my fellow teachers what are some things that you do to build relationships?


In Ephesians 5:22-33, Paul gives instructions to husbands and wives, and he exhorts husbands and wives to emulate Christ’s relationship with the church. A husband is instructed to lead, love, and sacrifice himself for his wife. A wife is commanded to respect her husband and submit to his loving, sacrificial leadership. This is God’s design for marriage and an illustration of Christ’s special love and care for his people.
Since God has designed marriage to illustrate Christ’s relationship with the church, and since we, as followers of Christ, are called to and desire to be like him, we must pursue marriages that honor Christ and reflect his character and nature to the world. One author has identified five principles regarding marriage that we all should understand, and to which we all should commit our lives and marriages. Today, I charge you, Stephen and Amber, to understand and commit yourselves to these principles.
- First, I charge you to understand and commit to The Permanence of Marriage.
Whether it is acknowledged or not, marriage partners make their vows before God. According to Matthew 19:6, “What God has joined together, let no man separate.” God has designed marriage not to end while both of you are living. This relationship, like Christ’s relationship with his church, is permanent, meant to last as long as you both are alive.
- Second, I charge you to understand and commit to The Sacredness of Marriage.
Marriage is a relationship designed, instituted, and initiated by God. Proverbs 18:22 says, “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.” This relationship, like Christ’s relationship with his church, is sacred, initiated by God.
- Third, I charge you to understand and commit to The Intimacy of Marriage.
Moses commented in Genesis 2:24 that, “a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.” God’s design for marriage unites a man and a woman together intimately, removing each from their family of origin and creating a new union. Marriage creates a context for knowing and being known. This relationship, like Christ’s relationship with his church, is designed for intimacy.
- Fourth, I charge you to understand and commit to The Mutuality of Marriage.
In Paul’s teaching on marriage in 1 Corinthians 7, he exhorts husbands and wives to selflessly serve one another and to pursue the other’s best interests above their own. Just preceding this passage, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, “You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore, honor God with your body.” God’s has designed marriage for your mutual benefit and pleasure. You are called to put the needs and desires of your spouse first. This relationship, like Christ’s relationship with his church, is designed for mutuality.
- Last, I charge you to understand and commit to The Exclusiveness of Marriage.
“No other human relationship must interfere with the marriage commitment between husband and wife.” 1 Corinthians 7:2 instructs us that, “because of immoralities, each man is to have his own wife, and each woman is to have her own husband.” It is God’s design for a marriage that a man and woman set themselves apart to the exclusion of all others. This relationship, like Christ’s relationship with his church, is designed for exclusivity.
As Stephen and Amber prepare to make their vows and illustrate their commitment to each other, I would like to commend them for pursuing Christ together. They have sought wisdom from many counselors leading up to this most joyous of days, and I know they have understood and committed to each of these marriage principles. They have demonstrated the desire and determination to pursue each other’s best interests, and they understand that the close communion of marriage will require compassion and forgiveness. Stephen and Amber, may your marriage reflect the loving care and tenderness that Jesus Christ has for his people.

Remember how you learn to love and pass it on.

Title: Pass Love On
Someone taught you how to love,
and probably didn't know it.
And in return, with every day,
It's now your turn to show it.
When you love, you give a gift,
And when you're gone it stays
To be passed on by the ones you loved
To make some one else's day.
So remember someone who loved you,
And show how much you care,
By sharing all the love they gave
With people everywhere.
When you give away your love,
That doesn't mean it's gone.
Love will last forever, so open YOUR heart... and pass it on.
~ Author Unknown

Who should raise the children when parents divorce?
From my personal experience, when parents divorce, children should live with the best parent to raise them. I know some people may wonder what I mean by the best parent. I mean the parent that can provide the type of nurturing environment needed to provide the children with the skills they will need to survive in the world. But I also believe that the parent who does not have custody should remain as involved with their children as possible. Just because the parents do not get along, does not mean that the parent who does not have custody can just take off and abandon the children. This can affect how the children grow up.
For example, I have two children who grew up in a divorced household. The children have not seen their dad for a very long time. My son has not seen his father for approximately 8 years now. My daughter has not seen him
in about 2 years. Two of the grandchildren have only
seen their grandfather once,
and another grandchild has never met him. Although
my children are grown and have children of their own, I still see how they really miss him deep down inside their hearts. Through their behavior over the years, I have seen how his absence affects them each day. For example: when my son was about 16 years old his father called the house and did not ask to speak with him, even though my son was the one who answered the phone. I watched my son cry in my arms like a baby because he really wanted his dad to talk to him. I know that there are many families out there who go through the same things. We need to remember that even though we may not stay in a marriage we need to always keep in touch and be involved in our children's lives. Having the family connection and a good support system from both parents can help raise the children to become the best that they can be in life.
Children need the love and care from both parents. It does not matter whether or not if the children see
their other parent once a week, once a month, or once a year.
The children need to feel that they are loved and cared for from both parents. I have talked with children young and old who say that they wished that they could see their mother or father more often. They want to have a family as a whole instead of a half. But when that is not entirely possible, the parents need to make sure that the child's life is as complete as possible by staying involved in their upbringing.
Parents let's always stay in touch with our children. Let's love and care for them so they feel that they are special to us. Our love for our children can help them grow to become the best that they can be, and live happy and fulfilling lives.

I want one of those marriages where they’ve been married 20 years but are still crazy in love and still cuddle on the couch and kiss a lot. I want those kind of marriages that make my kids nauseous because how in love their parents are.

I received a hug from a friend when I was feeling very uncertain about things in my life. The hug was like a warm, safe sanctuary in a scary uncertain time. I had shared my fears about an upcoming doctor’s appointment and she responded with a genuine gift, one with no time limit or expectations attached.
It reminded me of a mother’s hug. A hug that says, “I am here and it is okay, I am not going anywhere and we can face this scary time together.” Perhaps that description would surprise my friend, she was just responding with God’s love that was in her. She wasn’t trying to be my mother.
You see God is not restricted to giving the love of a mother through the one woman who gave us birth. Thank you my friend, thank You my Father.


My online sisters , They love me so much,
But why? Why? Why?…
We never ever met,
They don’t know me other than my profile pic,
But they love my, Why?…
I never heard most of them,
We never had an audio call,
Just some finger chatting,
And they love me, why?…
We care for each other ,
They remind me of Allah,
And they love me, why?…
My sisters are from different parts of this beautiful world,
From Saudi, from Pakistan, From Bangladesh,
Many from my own country India,
But we never knew each other, out of internet.
Still they love me, why?…
I don’t know, how they look,
Brown or white, pale or bright,
But I l love them, why?…
Some of them I don’t know their place, age, or anything,
Other than they are my sisters and muslims .
They pray for me, and I pray for them,
B’coz we love each other, but why?…
One of my friend from Medina,
She prayed for me during her umrah,
Why, why? She loves me, why?…
We enjoy each other’s company,
Though virtual not physical,
And it pleases me when they teach me my deen.
B,coz we love each other, but why?…
My friends, even if I don’t know their real names,
But they help me when I need them,
They encourage me to do well,
And keep me away from evil.
Bcoz they love me, but why?….
Due to them, I learn each day a new hadith ,or verse,
Or some of my misconceptions go away.
They share with me their feelings,
Their happiness and sorrows,
Coz they love me, but why?…
Oh! Yes, Yes, Yes. I know the answer,
We love each other for the sake of our creator…
Yes my dear sisters,
I love you, and u love me for the sake of Allah,
For our deen, and for dawah…
We’ll altogether meet under the throne,
On the day of Qiyamah,
Smiling, happy, and congratulating one another.
For our successful journeys, …
Love you, Love you, and Love you, O! My sisters.
Always keep praying for my hidayah,
And never let me fell astray, if you really love me.
See my loved ones… ♥♥♥♥♥…
Allah will ask on the Day of Judgment: “Where are those who loved each other for the sake of My glory? Today, on a day when there is no shade but Mine, I shall shade them with My shade.” (Muslim)
. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,
“Among Allah’s servants are people who are neither prophets nor martyrs, but whom the prophets and martyrs will deem fortunate because of their high status with Allah.” The Companions asked, “O Messenger of Allah! Inform us of who they are.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) told them that they are people who loved each other for Allah’s sake, even without being related to one another or being tied to one another by the exchange of wealth. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went on to describe their great reward on the Day of Resurrection: “By Allah, their faces will be luminous and they will be upon light. They will feel no fear when the people will be feeling fear, and they will feel no grief when the people will be grieving.” Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) read the verse: [Behold! Verily on the friends of Allah there is no fear, nor shall they grieve] (Yunus 10:62). (Abu Dawud)


Hubby and I have been married 27 years and have been playing mixed doubles together for 9 months. We often meet couples who absolutely refuse to play with each other. Definitely can think of many good reasons not to:
- Skill level gap too wide between you and your significant other;
- Different goals (maybe one wants to compete in tournaments and the other is happy just doing rec play);
- Pickleball is your "me" time away from spouse/s.o.
For us, our first few months as MXD partners were, well, ROUGH. Communication is key off and on the court. So is letting things go. And learning to accept each other's weaknesses. And embracing each other's strengths. And exercising humility. If you don't have the strong foundations of a healthy relationship outside the pickleball kitchen, things won't magically improve when you're down 0-9, missing your drop shots, popping up all your balls, or fighting over who shoulda-woulda-coulda covered the middle.
We passed the biggest marital pickleball stress test about 4 months in, when an "I got it! NO, I GOT IT!" tiff turned into a total public meltdown. You know exactly what I'm talking about, right? Hubby called a shot that was way over on "my" side of the court, but I ignored him. Didn't get out of his way. Swung and missed.
Glaring and death stares ensued. Serves failed. Lobs whiffed. Volleys flubbed. The opposing team politely endured our awkward, seething silence, but not for too long. We were quickly pickled, refused to clink each other's paddles, and then stormed separately off the court.
0-11. YEARGHHH! CALL THE DIVORCE LAWYER!
Somehow, we worked through it all as our kids snickered at their goofy parents fighting over... pickleball. We learned not to dwell on occasional communications mishaps. We learned to forgive and move on. We put "us" ahead of "you" and "me."
So now that I've spilled my guts out: Tell us YOUR favorite married mixed doubles meltdown story and share your tips on how to survive!


Forty two years ago a baby was born in Sonoma California with Down syndrome. He was named David and he was loved and welcomed by his birth family. David had some health problems and so did his birth family. They very reluctantly decided that they were not able to care for him and placed him for adoption.
He was adopted by a West Chester family who also loved and welcomed him. Last year, his adoptive mother, Mary, through her interest in genealogy and her familiarity with online records, was able to locate David’s birth mother, Karen. She reached out to her and Karen was delighted.
David’s birth family consisted of a father, mother, sister, brother, grandmother, and four nieces, all of whom were thrilled. Through the internet, a communication was developed between the two families.
Recently Mary and David’s sister, Maria, took him to Sonoma to meet his birth family. They spent a long weekend meeting all of David’s relatives.
David with his birth parents
The following are quotes from two of the participants:
From David’s sister, Maria:
My brother, David, is adopted. Recently, my amazing mother contacted David’s birth mother to thank her and let her know he is loved and happy. As it turns out David is even more loved. His birth family has loved him and wondered about him. This past year has been a wonderful journey, helping David to get to know his birth family on the internet. This past weekend he was able to physically reunite with his biological family in California. He is one completely loved guy! A big thank you to David’s first family and now our extended family!!
From David’s birth sister, Stephanie
To all those involved in the reunion that took place this past week in Sonoma and, most importantly, to the amazing and generous family that adopted my brother David: thank you so very much for what you have done for our family, Mary and Maria. You personally gave me such a gift that I never thought I’d ever get. A lifelong void was filled and I owe it all to you. It was more amazing than I could have ever imagined! Seeing my mom and my dad SoOOooOoo happy to see David again was something that I like to believe mended and healed. Above all, watching my Grama with David was so huge and we owe it all to you. I love love love you.
David’s two families look forward to growing together united in their love for him


A child support lawyer often handles child support issues in family court cases. Children should be able to have meaningful lives. As a result, parents have a duty to provide for their children’s necessities and to raise them appropriately. Kid support is a continuous payment paid by a parent following a divorce or separation to guarantee that the child continues to live in a secure and healthy environment even after his or her parents have divorced. A parent, caregiver, or guardian is required to pay child support. Adopted or biological children, as well as separated or divorced parents, are still subject to child support. A child support lawyer will guarantee that a couple follows child support rules, regardless of their relationship status. Couples should contribute to their children’s growth in the same way they would if they had not split. In addition, parents should be aware of child support computations. Assessments provided by services can assist couples in determining child support. However, spouses can also form their own agreements concerning child support payments. This article will explore Eaton child support lawyers and how they may assist couples in settling their child support payments.
Explicitly Outlining the Procedures Involved
A child support lawyer may walk parents through the whole child support procedure. The child support procedure can be unpleasant, especially if the parents disagree about payments. Essentially, these lawyers will handle all of the necessary legal paperwork and records. They can also clarify each parent’s rights if child support payments need to be reassessed.
Child Support Enforcement
Child support implementation differs by state, and a child support lawyer can clarify the requirements. Child support implementation will begin with parents reaching an agreement on child support arrangements and documentation.
Reevaluations and Negotiations
There may also be times when parents dispute on child support calculations. Parents who dispute on child support assessments may seek Eaton Child Support lawyers to aid them with reassessments. The youngster may also require medical treatment, such as dental care and surgery. Couples may also have agreed on the school their child will attend or which extracurricular activities they will participate in. Indeed, not all spouses can agree on arrangements and may choose to go to court.
This procedure may include serving a child support order on a non-complying parent in order to collect child support payments. A child support order is a legal court order issued when parents refuse or postpone child support payments. Penalties may be imposed on the noncompliant parent. A child support lawyer, on the other hand, may assist contentious couples with mediation.

Inflammatory marker high-sensitive C- reactive protein (hs-CRP) may play role as predictor of inflammation in patients with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to estimate hs-CRP levels and glycemic control status and to determine association with microalbuminuria. The relationship between inflammation and microalbuminuria complications in type- 2 diabetes mellitus which has not yet been reported in North Indians. Forty two patients with microalbuminuria and twenty types-2 diabetes without microalbuminuria were enrolled. We analyzed serum concentrations of high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), serum lipid profile, glycosylated hemoglobin and urine micro albumin levels. HbA1C and hs-CRP were significantly higher in patients with microalbuminuria diabetics cases than without microalbumiuria (p<0.0001). Furthermore, hs-CRP was poorly correlated with urinary albumin excretion (p=0.002) .This study concludes that inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of microalbuminuria. The significance of these findings emphasizes the early detection of MAU combined with glycemic control and improved lipid profile which are fundamentals in prevention and control of diabetic complications.
Key Words: Microalbuminuria, High sensitivity-C reactive protein, Inflammation

Ancestry DNA is one of my favorite companies for DNA testing, since they also.
Jul 23, Cousins are people who share a common ancestor that is at least 2 generations away, such as a grandparent or great-grandparent. You and your siblings are not cousins because your parents are only 1 generation away from you. First cousins, second cousins, and so on belong to the same generation as one another, counting back the same number of generations to their shared ancestors.
But if your cousin is a generation older or younger than you, we use the term “removed” cousins. Third cousin Gen. 6 once removed Third cousin Gen. 7 twice removed Grandparents Parents YOU Children Grandchildren shrubremover.bar Sibling Niece/ nephew Grandniece/ grandnephew. Title: Family Tree Hub_ Cousins_v3 Created Date:File Size: 1MB.
You start the process by finding the common ancestor of two individuals. The second cousin connection is actually quite simple: the common ancestor is a great grandparent, so, in the family tree to the left, Betty Driscoll and the John Doyle born in are second cousins because they share the same great grandparents.
The first cousin once removed relationship is slightly more complicated: it means that. Apr 17, By the time you get to seventh cousins, Family Tree DNA has a 0% probability of a match, while the others can only provide a 3% or less likelihood.
The probability chart provides a clear example of how the amount of shared DNA between cousins grows smaller, the farther away you descend from that shared ancestor. Nov 16, Find out how you are related to people in your family tree with this cousin tree, which shows cousins, first cousins once removed and more Most of us are familiar with the first steps in a family tree, for example that the parents of our own parents are our grandparents, and the children of our brothers and sisters are our nieces and nephews.
Feb 18, There are several relationships that fall into the same range of shared centimorgans (cMs) that we see for first cousins, which is cMs. Expressed as a percentage, we expect first cousins to share between about % of their DNA. People who fall between about centimorgans of shared DNA certainly could be first cousins. May 04, Adam Nisbett.
In general based on what I understand of how DNA recombination works, cousin marriages end up giving you a larger dose of the common ancestry (since they would show up multiple times in your family tree this makes sense) but it's more likely to show up in multiple segments rather than one long segment.


Why don't you ask him if he's going to stay?
Why don't you ask him if he's going away?
Why don't you tell me what's going on?
Why don't you tell me who's on the phone?
Why don't you ask him what's going wrong?
Why don't you ask him who's the latest on his throne?
Don't say that you love me, hiyee-ha
Just tell me that you want me, hiyee-ha
Just say that you want me, hiyee-ha
Don't say that you
Tusk! Tusk! Tusk!

This song, released on the album of the same name, earned Fleetwood Mac and the marching band from University of Southern California a record for the most artists present on one single in the top 40s at spot #8
The song talks about suspecting your partner is cheating. However the song’s protagonist decides he would rather be wanted than lied to and told he was loved. This seems like an antonym to Little Lies from the 1987 album “Tango in the Night”. This references the relationship between Nicks and Buckingham fracturing even further as Buckingham learns of the Nicks-Fleetwood affair after one of their shows.

I just saw the movie Secretary with James Spader and Maggie Gyllenhaal. The movie is a few years old and I streamed it online after reading about it in a book about kink. I’ve read two books that are wonderful! I will list and discuss them in another posting but for now I will discuss the movie.
The movie starts of with Maggie being a soft mousey secretary who is masochistics, cuts herself and was recently in a mental hospital. She is hired by James Spader to be his secretary. He slowly discovers that Maggie is cutting herself and is in need of discipline. He coaches, guides, and allows for her to blossom before his eyes. By the end of the movie she is in love. in pure love with a man who has taken control over her life and transformed her into a strong empowering woman.
Seeing how it started, seeing how he molded her to His creation. He made her. I want that, I want Dom to work with me and make me into what he wants. I am going to ask him if he can set tasks and a mental control to our relationship. We are moving slowly along in our physical relationship and there are many times when I want to speed things up. But I know that he knows best and he is moving slowly so we can learn and grow from each other.
One of my favorite scenes is when James Sander and Maggie are on the phone and he specifically orders her what to eat, “one spoonful of mashed potatoes, 4 peas and as much ice cream as you would like.” She did exactly that. The joy that she gets as she is scooping the mashed potatoes and counting exactly the 4 peas she is going to eat. The joy she is getting from simply doing as she is told. It’s as if he is always with her, reminding her that no matter where she is she is not in control, He is in control of her life, her well being.
The other scene that I really enjoyed was when She realizes that she wants to be with James 24/7. He tries to push her away and tells her that he cannot do it. She is heartbroken when she is fired and pushed away from his life. She becomes engaged and quickly realizes that she cannot be in a vanilla relationship that would never fulfill her desires. She goes back to James and he orders her to stay at the desk and to not move, she stays there for days waiting for him to come and get her. after what seems like weeks of not moving and her family going and trying to help her he finally goes and rescues her. He takes care of her and they are involved in a 24/7 relationship. To the outside world they seem like a normal couple but they know that their lives and relationship is very different.
I’m just falling in love. I want a structure a foundation that we are able to be ourselves no matter what. I see my life with him. I see a home and children where we are together knowing that behind our bedroom doors, when we are alone, he has complete control over me. I want him to tell me what I can wear wheat I cant wear what to eat what to do when I can do it. I want him to be in control of my life. I want him to make a structure that I must follow and if I dont follow it I will be punished.
He would punish me and mold me into what he wants. I need a more submissive relationship now. I know that he has the control but he has to take more control of my life. I want to give him more control of it. I want him not only to take control of our sex life but my life.
I want to be in a 24/7 relationship with him. Be equals and know that we are special. There is no other man that I want. He lights my world and when I am with him there is no one that I think about. Over the past few weeks I have had men hit on me, three ex boyfriends that want to get back with me and I have shut them all down. Shut them down because I know deep inside they will never fulfill me. They couldn’t. There is no way that any of them will be able to satisfy the craving of submitting. Only this lifestyle will and can complete this feeling.


I want to live here
I know i’m only 19 but i know that i’ve met that one person who i want to spend the rest of my life with. She’s kind, caring, beautiful, gentle, inspiring, gorgeous, amazing and just perfect. But this year is gunna be so much harder because we’re going to be further away and not be able to see each other as much as we did over summer and that breaks my heart everytime i think about it. I know she’ll have an amazing time at university even if she doesnt believe it yet. i love her and i want her to know that i will do everything in my power for us to work
If someone believed me they would be as in love with you as I am.
I feel lonely all the time when I’m not with you and I can’t snap out of it. People keep saying you should go out more but I really don’t want to, I don’t enjoy it anymore it bores, scares and drains me financially and physically. the truth is, the reason I don’t want to go out is because it keeps me awake for longer and being awake for longer only reminds that I’m so far away from you and its so long till I can see you. I’m fed up with Uni already. I’m ready to come home, I’m ready to have you all to myself I should be allowed to be selfish for once and it just to be me and you. The simple fact of the matter is I MISS YOU


More often than not, our spouses seem to get the short end of the stick when it comes to our list of priorities. Jobs have deadlines, so my husband can wait. The kids need me, my husband will have to wait. Laundry needs to be folded. Dishes need to be washed. My brother calls and needs to tell me a ridiculous story about his day. My husband always waits. In all of that time waiting, he is often forgotten. And so am I. His blackberry rings, our conversation has to wait. A store is added to his schedule, our dinner plans have to wait. Conference calls run long and he is stuck at the office, lovey time has to wait.
My point is, there is always something in life that we prioritize over our spouse whether we intend to or not. I believe this is mostly due to an underlying thought that, as a loyal and patient spouse, they will understand and they forgive you. Things happen that are out of our control and our spouses always seem to take the back burner. They wait because they love us. They wait because they care about us. They wait because sometimes, they just don’t have a choice. But in these moments we are missing out on our life together. As the old saying goes, we often get too busy creating a life that we forget to live.
I am the first to admit how little appreciation I show to my husband. Life with an obsessive compulsive mother of twins is not luxurious. We have been flying by the seat of our pants together for the past eight years and somewhere along the way, something was lost. The honeymoon stage ended I suppose. That is not to say we aren’t happy. Truthfully, we are happier now than we were five years ago when we struggled to find our place in the world without stomping on the each others’ dreams. We have become one. We talk the same. We function the same. We fight about the same things. We are officially glued together and would probably be lost if we ever came undone. And that is alright with me. But even though we are thriving, I know there are times when things need to be said, efforts acknowledged, apologies given. These things shouldn’t wait. In a world where praise and encouragement seems too rare, kind words shouldn’t wait. There will never be a wrong time to say I love you, you are doing a great job or thank you.
In the hustle and bustle of life, there are still times when I stop and take a moment to watch and see who my husband has become and remember why I love him so much.
I see him out there busting his butt every single day to put food on our table. I see the four times he presses the snooze button on his alarm every morning, dreading the early road trips and long days away from home. I see him smelling the wrinkled clothes on the floor hoping they are wearable just one more time because I didn’t get the laundry done today. I see him exhausted from a day of putting out fires and dealing with pesky drama and I see how hard he works, even when he hates it, to keep us going and to give us a life of adventure that I so much enjoy.
I see him being daddy after a long day of work. I see the miss matched jammies he put on Lincoln, and the sideways ponytail he attempted to put in Brooklynn’s hair. I see him crawling around like a bear, and singing songs about bunnies not caring at all how foolish he may look. I see the way our kids gravitate toward him the minute he comes through that front door. I see how his face lights up each time he hears someone call him “dad” or how he seems to melt everytime those tiny little arms squeeze him a little longer during that bedtime hug.
Most importantly, I can finally see how he sees me. He looks at me and can see past my insecurities. He looks beyond my rough exterior and sees the little girl filled with hopes and dreams and adventure. He looks at me with love in his eyes and peace in his heart. It is the same look he has been giving me for eight years and I am finally able to understand it because that is exactly how I see him. We don’t say the right words all the time, but I am so glad that we are at a place in our relationship where we can look at each other and know that there will always be love and a forever between us. Without a single word spoken, we know it will always be there. I see him and he sees me. And that is all that matters. For ever and for always.
Happy Anniversary Babe,
I love you.

You want her free? You have to set her free. Tell her to live her life without you. And never think of you again. And to stop caring about you. And then leave her.

I know you think you brought all this bad stuff into my life. But my life already had it. I was buried in it.
↳ elena’s relationship with rebekah.“ I happen to like her just the way she is. It’s tragic that they’re trying so desperately to fix something that isn’t broken. “
'Mother made us vampires. She didn´t make us monsters, we did that to ourselves.'


FINALLY I can’t express how happy I’m!
I have been raised in a non-traditional family. Marriage is just a registered agreement. Sex before marriage is good, sex after marriage is not. With an inspiring female hardworking role model for a mom. Wearing whatever I want to wear, nothing is too short. Yet I want all the traditions of a man asking my father for my hand and a big wedding. Sex after marriage, as something sacred. Wearing modest clothes and only revealing myself to my husband. A big family with lots of children and becoming a housewife taking care of my husband and children.
This is all opposite of how I’m raised. && the opposite of the society I life in. Like I was born in to the wrong day and age.

Three Important Tips to Build Relationships on Social

Social media is a great way to connect with customers on a personal level. Show your personality, and don’t be afraid to be vulnerable. Reach out to customers with personalized messages to show that you care about them. Ask questions and engage in conversations to get to know them better.

Earlier today I read an article entitled “Sibling Relationships Are Cradle To Grave” and it got me thinking about the relationship that I have with my own sister.
People who know me either personally know my sister or at least know of her. She is a huge part of my life. She is a lot more than a sister to me.
Kaitlyn and I have been close from a young age. Due to problems within the family setting, we stuck together young. It was, and still is, my wish to shield and protect Kaitlyn from everything that was being said and done around us. I remember just looking at what was going on between the adults and thinking that through it all I was going to be making sure that she was as safe as possible. That she knew she was not alone and had someone to help her, she had someone to talk to and could trust in all the crazy going on around us. This feeling has never left me. I would do anything for this little one!
As a result, if I was going out with friends, I would often bring Kaitlyn with me. Even in school, each of us could talk to the others friends at break time/lunch. I never thought this was strange. However, what I did find strange, was when people asked me about how I could spend so much time with my sister when all they did with their siblings was fight. I am glad to say that we have never had a period of time when all we have done was argue. We are human, and we can annoy the other but we have never had any proper arguments with negative outcomes or anything. I am very glad of this, I know that I am not the easiest of people to live with, especially on bad days.
Today, my friends are Kaitlyn’s friends too. If I am invited somewhere, there is an automatic invitation to Kaitlyn too. Which I love!
Kaitlyn is my sister. She is my protector. She is the person I go to in tears. She is the person I go to because I am happy. She is my friend, my best friend. My primary caregiver at times. She’s my rock. She has kept me going. She has been my carer… quite literally. She has helped me dress when I’ve been unable to myself. She has reached out to people and got me help and support that I needed. She has come with me to appointments, made sure I’ve taken my medication. She has been by my side through love, loss, heartache, good times, bad times.
Kaitlyn is one of the key people in my life, a key player in this journey. I am lucky to have such an amazing relationship with my sister, I cannot imagine it any other way. I hope and pray that we continue to be as close throughout life. I hope she knows just how much she means to me. There are no words strong enough to describe just how much love, respect and trust I have for her. I am so proud of her and the person that she is. She is so caring and resilient. She amazes me.
Relationships are tricky things, especially amongst family at times. I am blessed that to have such a good relationship with my sister. I know that not everybody is as lucky to have such an amazing relationship with a sibling. Treat each other with kindness and remember that everybody is just feeling their way through life.
