Can't Tell If It's Love or Lust?

By Tiffany R Hunter

So many people are settling for less than they deserve in their relationships and confuse love with lust. Love is a passionate affection for another person.Love is not only an feeling you feel deep within but also an action. I say that because anybody can tell you they love you but there actions show you something completely different. Which brings me to lust. Lust is simply a pleasure or desire.

You can be so in lust with a person that you actually may feel you love this person you're in lust with. When you actually may just be in love with something about that person or something that person has done for you, can be kind of confusing
But always remember at the end of the day your happiness is what counts. In life we have what we call seasonal and lifetime partners. Seasonal partners are people who come into your life for a short time. You may be in a relationship with this person and all but it's not meant to be for a lifetime. Lifetime partner is a potential soul mate who you have a very strong connection with and could someday be your husband/wife. This person will be so in tune with you, you have matching heartbeats. Sometimes in life it's hard to tell the difference because a person can come into your life seeming to be a lifetime partner but really not meant to be that.

Some people are put in your life to teach you a lesson or that may be your purpose for being in their life who knows only you can determine that based off your happiness. Let me teach you how to love yourself to the point that you won't allow lust to cloud your judgement when making vital decisions when it comes to your happiness and well being.

Remember there is no such thing as coincidence in this lifetime, everything is simply and will always be inevitable. Relationships and love are never easy and need a lot of work. I'm compassionate in what I do and have connective abilities to offer to anyone in their personal search for inner peace and understanding of self. I've been where you are so I understand that sometimes love brings pain but also can bring happiness. It's your choice in life which one you are willing to accept. Sometimes in life you have to go through pain in order to recognize true happiness.

How to Make Her Go Lovesick Instead of You

By Bernard Y

There are indeed a whole lot of men out there who would want to get a woman to chase after them, especially those which they're genuinely interested in. You'll also find some other guys who've made blunders in such efforts and made the error of overcomplicating things.
The truth is that, with most average looking guys, they regularly forget to depend on the things that make them stand out the most. They not remember to carry themselves accordingly, as a result losing the attention of the female they fancy. Soon after, they'd end up feeling lovesick.

They would not want to get out of the bed and would just rather mope around, dwelling in depression and misery. However, you will find certain strategies which you can integrate in order to keep away from feeling like this and getting her to actually approach you more frequently. These are just some of the tips which you can consider if you ever wish to get her to be the love sick one instead.

You will need to change your strategy. if you ever really want to be the one chased after by her, you must keep in mind which you cannot appear needy. You might actually like to think about learning how to attract their interest in you. As a matter of fact, you can start off by playing things cool. This will help take charge of the pace, and let things work out to your advantage.

The next thing which you'll want to be aware that is that you don't desire to get overexcited at the first hint of her showing any interest in you. As a matter of fact, this is almost certainly one of the worst things you may ever do, since you're just coming off as needy. No female wants a needy guy, and you will eventually get back to the old drawing board if you ever portray yourself as such. as a result, you'll want to keep calm at all times.

Finally, the most important thing to do is to leave her alone for rather a bit of time. if you ever want to stay away from looking like a lovesick puppy all the time, change up the strategies and simply give her space. Soon enough she will start noticing that you're not paying much attention to you, and you will just end up being the one she's chasing after. This is a strategy that works, since a woman needs attention, and you depriving her of it will make her wish to get your interest even more.

He's Married - What Do I Do?

By Hannah E Fairfield

Are you in love with a man who is married to someone else? Do you think it may be time to end the relationship with him before things get more complicated? Will it be too difficult to get over him? Believe it or not, lots of women have found themselves in your very situation. Deciding how to handle it is not easy and can lead to many hurt feelings and broken hearts.
Analyzing your feelings for him is a good place to start. Are you truly in love with this man, or you in love with wanting something that is unattainable? A man who has committed his life to someone can subconsciously appeal to you for a variety of reasons. You go in knowing that the relationship is likely to fail, and oddly enough it can be a comfort knowing that if it does, it will not be your fault.

Trying to gauge whether or not your feelings for him are legitimate is not an easy task. You must look at how your relationship has progressed. Being "in love" typically means that you are capable of sacrifice to make the other person feel whole and happy - is an extramarital affair really what this guy needs to feel complete? Or are you letting him take advantage of you, as well as his wife?
Another thing to take into consideration is the reality of whether or not this relationship would work, even if he were to leave his wife for you. Every day he would face ridicule for abandoning his marriage, and you will never be wholly accepted by the people in his life as anything but the "other woman." Besides the weight of responsibility, you will always know in the back of your mind that if he cheated on her, he may very well cheat on you. Many people who cheat do so for the thrill as opposed to fulfilling any legitimate desires that are left unattended in the current relationship.

The last thing to realize is that he is probably not going to leave her for you. He married this woman, and whatever reason he is seeking out your companionship is not likely to end that. Divorce is a long and painful procedure. This is especially true when there is money or children involved. Do you truly believe that his wife will give him an easy divorce when she realizes he's been having an affair? He knows this and you need to, as well. Even if his marriage does end, the divorce and ensuing legal and emotional battles could take months, even years. Are you ready for that kind of commitment to a man that couldn't keep his?

Keep in mind that there are at least three people in this scenario who can be hurt. No matter what he tells you about his current relationship, his wife is still a person with feelings and desires. And if he is willing to hurt the woman he married, what makes you think he won't do the same to you later on down the line?

Great Love Advice

By Karl Sugar

Love advice is an important aspect to men married, single or divorced. Generally, it provides guidelines on how to treat your loved partner for the wellbeing of your relationship. Most men end up being lonely after a relationship break up simply because they lacked love advice. Here is some essential advice for men in their relationship.

Seclude Some Time for Your Partner
This is a great love advice to the majority of men who only spend time with their loved ones once in a week or even fail to. Spending some time with your partner usually assists in the establishing of a stable romance. Romance is an essential ingredient of a relationship and it feels incomplete without it. Thus, to establish romance in a relationship, secluding some of your time with your loved one is a great move.

Make a Decision before Getting Into a Relationship
Generally, a relationship is among the most essential features in an individual and often affects him either positively or negatively. Definitely, every man has in his mind what kind of a partner he desires to have in his life. However, many of the men fail to meet this special person they wish of and end up being with another one. You should get into a relationship with someone who is trustworthy, loving and cherishing. This is a great love advice to men.

Show That You Love and Cherish Your Partner
Show your partner how much you love and cherish her by expressing your love with words as well as action. This is the greatest and prominent love advice for you. For instance, saying "I LOVE YOU" to your partner creates a great positive impact on your relationship compared to when you just say "I LIKE YOU". There exists a big difference between "LOVE" and "LIKE" and the girls usually never take them as the same. For example, when you tell your partner "I LIKE YOU" you have great possibility of ending into the friend zone. However, with this love advice, you will end up in the right path.

Treat Your Partner the Right Way
Treat your loved one in the same way you would like her to treat you. Take a flashback of what you have said to your partner for the last few days. Do the words fit her? Or are they harsh to her? And would you like her to treat you the same? Therefore, next time you speak to your loved one, don't use harsh words or let anger take control over you. Definitely, this love advice will make your partner appreciate you.

Understand Your Partners Feelings
A relationship is generally based on feelings one has towards his partner. Many of the love advice articles do not explain this. At times we break up a relationship and we are not able to explain or understand why it had to happen. It is the feeling towards your loved one or partner that controls you. Therefore, if you develop hatred, expect your love to end up hurting but if you develop love, definitely expect a long love life. Always ensure that your loved one is ever smiling and happy. Make it possible through this love advice.

4 Ways to LOVE Better Than Ever

By Steve Wickham

Love runs the entire world, and if we think that's rubbish we just need to think about how we respond to many variations of acceptance and rejection that come our way. We all desire to be loved, but rarely is it natural for us to want to love.
If we are serious about love, about getting love right, and protecting ourselves by loving in advance of others' love, we will want to get real about it; really real.
Let's think of love as an acrostic. We can arrange L.O.V.E.:

Listen when other people are speaking.
Overlook pettiness, common faults, and forgive failures.
Value other people for who they are.
Express love in practical ways.
Let's explore those in greater detail:

1. LISTEN
We all like to be listened to, so it's ironic that we prefer to speak rather than listen. Good listeners are so scarce. But if we are prepared to listen with an open mind and heart we find the simplest way to love someone by our communication. Most people are pleasantly surprised that we are interested in them enough to listen.

2. OVERLOOK
There are so many petty things that prove as stumbling blocks before us. We are frustrated by the most innocuous things. But when we have perspective - more of the God viewpoint - we find it easier to overlook common lapses and to forgive innocent mistakes.
We must ask ourselves, "How important is this issue, really?"

3. VALUE
Valuing all others for who they are, despite the temptations to judge or limit our expression of love somehow, is very simple, but we don't do it that well ordinarily. Particularly in our family members' lives, we are placed there to love them beyond our prejudices. They are their own people, responsible for their own choices, and we should respect them for that.
Valuing others for who they are is perhaps the greatest gift of love, where no fear breaches the relationship. When we value others for who they are, more freedom is enjoyed by all (except those driven by an anger-laden inner fear).

4. EXPRESS
What is love if it cannot be expressed in practical terms? Others are blessed in our creativity to innovate around love. We use our imaginations, finding ways of doing, saying, or giving nice things to those we are in contact with, or simply by spending time with them.
***

Loving people is made simpler when we 1) listen intently to them, 2) overlook minor problems with a forgiving attitude, 3) value people for who they are, and 4) express our love in creatively innovative ways.

Your SOUL Knows: The SPIRITUAL Secret to Wild and "Crazy" LOVE That Lasts Forever

By Angela Zoile

What is the TRUE secret of love that lasts? Is there are way to increase, enhance and extend the amount of love two people can share? Why do some couples start so well, and yet... END so brokenhearted and badly? And how can I get him to love me as much as I love him... or does he already, and just doesn't let it show? Any of these questions sound familiar? In this article we are going to take a quick and easy look at some super simple ways to quite literally... maximize both your SHARED love, and for good measure, understand some simple truths about how to increase HIS love for you in the process. Curious to know more? Continue reading as we take a closer look below!

Let's start by understanding this:
As a spiritual intuitive, emotional empath and amateur aura reader, my own feelings on attracting, building and developing love for a lifetime are MUCH different than most.
Why?
Because I believe in a "forever" that is much different than most traditional relationship coaches. In my view, love is the ULTIMATE expression of the spiritual experience, and something we're all born to cultivate and is woven into the fabric of our earthy experience.
In other words (and I think you'll agree) the ONLY real purpose of life is to love. To find love. Be loved. Express love. and RECEIVE love. (unfortunately, the LAST part is the one thing that many women waste their lifetime trying to find)

Filed Under: The Karmic Connection and Anatomy of Amore
Let's start by by taking an unconventional, karmic view of the sacred connection between two people that lasts a lifetime. (or more:-)
The vast majority of people makes love decisions based on the head, and NOT the heart. (and certainly not a spiritual sense of connection that transcends)
For example - think about how many times you'll hear someone describe the "perfect guy"? The truth is, the whole idea of someone being perfect for you " on paper" is the biggest reason why so few people truly find love that last.
Because true PASSION, spiral connection and that special something that can't be put into words... is by definition, not able to be captured on paper, right?
It's not practical.
It might not make sense to others.
It might even look weird from the outside in.
But where it counts, if you've ever had it... it makes you feel ALIVE, awake and awake of an energy so strong, that you can't even imagine living without it.

That's what TRUE crazy love feels like..:-)
And unfortunately, as an author and intuitive who has written hundreds of articles read by hundreds of thousands of women worldwide, and who has been privileged to work with, and interview some of the best emotional empaths in the world, I can tell you... it's something that only 1 in 500 women will ever experience.
The truth is, you DO have a soulmate. A special spiritual partner. A karmic connection that you are here to love, learn from and grow together... through this life, and whatever comes next.
I believe that it truly the whole purpose of living this life.
(and yet so many of us forget that in pursuit of things that don't matter at all)
And most importantly?
When you realize it, and when you look for it, and when you ASK for it... the universe will point the way. (and THAT is when life truly begins... for BOTH of you!)

"At the moment of commitment the entire universe conspires to assist you."

Six Key Steps on Having a Successful Relationship

By Jake R Reynolds

1. Know that you cannot change the person that you are with.
 This part is as or more important as people get into relationships and find things out about their partner that they hate or feel are impossible to stand, but they feel that down the line the person will either grow out of it, or change later. Now with this I am not talking about small habits like leaving the seat up after using the bathroom, or forgetting to take the dog for a walk. Those things are trainable and are not built into your DNA. Everyone has little quirks that their partner does not like. However, unwillingness to compromise or being a homebody when you're a die-hard clubber are not things that you will see change too often, at least not by the majority or people. Or if they are a person that cuts deep when having an argument and always yells at you and says hurtful things, then chances are they will stay like that for the duration of your relationship. Now with a problem like the one just mentioned, once or twice is passable. Everyone deserved a second chance depending on the situation.

 This is the "ehh, maybe they were angry" pass and not like this all the time. OK, I get that. But again, some things are just how a person is. You cannot CHANGE a person, and if you are trying too then that shows that you are not into the person that you are with, but rather into the thought of how you want them to be. Not good, and not something that you want to rely on because most of the time it's not going to happen.

2. Communication is key.
 Talk, talk, talk, and then talk some more! Seriously, never stop talking to your partner about anything and everything. The more you let out now, the fewer problems you will have later. Trust me. I know sometimes you don't want to talk or you're not in the mood but this stops many arguments from developing if you guys just discuss your problems with one another. Things don't get to fester and true feelings come out early on.

3. Stay faithful.
 This one is the deal breaker. If you're going to cheat, why be in a relationship? I don't get it. Stay away from relationships if you know that you want to be with more than one person. No having your cake and eating it too. I know my fellas that are good dudes are tired of trying to be the good guy and getting played out, and women are tired of labeling us as no good and dogs. So why help the cause. Let's take care of business and grow up. Stop playing with people's hearts and treat them the way you would want to be treated.

4. Have your own lives.
 It's great to get lost in each other's world, and all that lovely dovey stuff, but as close as you guys are, you should also have separate hobbies and things of that nature. This keeps the relationship fresh and helps you guys keep your identities but also not allowing you to get so wrapped up in each other's worlds that you forget your own friends and family. Getting to know each other's friends is great, and even hanging out with them is fun too, but to share any and everything with each other can get boring a bring a stale taste to the relationship.

5. Treat each other with respect.
 This is something that many people in relationships lack. They sometimes feel that once they are with someone, which person becomes their property and that could not be further from the truth. You need to always treat your partner with respect, and love.

6. Love your partner for being the person they are.
 Loving that person for them is one of the best things you can do. Love goes along way. Love them when they are at their worst like you love them when they are at their best. Trust me, they will love you back! I promise.

6 Love Points For A Healthy Love Life

By Leroy Scott

Remember these six points:
1. You will feel in love and out of love many times while you are married because marriage is not survived on a feeling. It survives on a promise.
Your marriage vow is afforded through a promise. The feelings associated with the relationship will fade within two to three years. They will come periodically, but they are never consistent. As people grow, they change and as they change the relationship changes with them.

2. All the money in the world could not afford what you have together. Celebrate it.
Love can never be bought. The work it takes to stay in love can never be purchased. You should celebrate all that your marriage has endured, because great marriages are the result of great commitments.

3. Always remember where you started because things that seem like the end; find life when they remember the beginning.
There is nothing like the beginning, especially for relationships. The moment you met, the time you spent, and the way you felt was an experience that is to be held as a precious jewel to remind you of what your relationship is capable of. Revisit it often, especially when it feels like what you started is coming to an end.

4. My wife and I carved our names in a tree in the middle of this beautiful park. When I visited 10 years later, the tree had been cut down... so glad that what we carved on the tree had also been carved in our hearts.
Always take your love deeper than the experiences you have and let your love for one another be en-grafted on your hearts, because things around you will always be cut down.

5. Nothing teaches Love the way marriage does.
Life offers several opportunities to love and be loved, but none compare to that of marriage. Nothing loves the way marriage does. God made marriage to be enjoyable and to help us understand His relationship with His Church.

6. Your disagreements are always opportunities to see deeper into yourself.
The greatest challenges and conflicts you have open the door for you to see inside of your heart. Without them, there would be no opportunity for such an extraordinary experience. Take a good look inside yourself and change the things that you feel need to be changed. In doing so, you will change your life and your relationship.

Are You Curious About What You Need to Do To Make a Woman Fall in Love With You?

By Andrew Grimsley

Being curious about things can be good, especially if it leads to you finding an answer to something that you really want to know about and can benefit from. You probably wouldn't mind getting a little bit of information on what you can do to make a woman fall in love with you. Just think about the way it would feel if you knew that you had a pretty good chance of being able to win over a woman you like and make her feel just as strongly about you as you feel about her.
So, are you curious about what you need to do to make a woman fall in love with you?

Here are some things that just might do the trick:
1. The more connected to you that you can make a woman feel, the higher your chances are for being able to win her heart.
Connections are rare. People want to feel connected and a lot of the time, that is the one thing that people will feel like they lack. Don't think that it is just men that feel that way and want to have that kind of connection. Women want it too. So, if you are able to make a woman feel like you and her have a rare connection with one another, love might be waiting for you.

2. Women tend to fall in love with guys who know how to be romantic at the right moment.
This is one of those things where you really do have to get the timing down right. You can make a romantic gesture at the wrong time and it will hardly have any effect at all on a woman and then, you can do it at just the right moment and it can end up making her feel like she is falling fast for you. Get your timing down and don't be afraid to get romantic when the timing is right.

3. Of course, the more you can make her feel like you and her are sexually compatible, the more likely it is that she will fall in love with you.
Try as some people might, in reality, you really cannot separate sex and love. Well, at least it shouldn't be too big of a separation. When you are able to make her feel as though you and her are sexually compatible with one another and that her experiences with you are more than just adequate, she will fall in love with you.

Are you ready to find out how to win her heart and make a woman fall in love with you quickly? You have to discover how to become a confident alpha male so women can't resist you.

Top 5 Tips to Attract Women

By Karl J. Sugar

When it comes to playing the dating scene, many men are a little clueless on what it takes and would like some tips how to attract women; even the pros could use some advice from time to time. Some of them may seem like things you already knew, but if you aren't doing them to their fullest, they may not bring you great results.

Best 5 Tips How to Attract Women-
1. Be confident: Women are much more likely to be attracted to you if you are sure of yourself, and confident in your actions. As long as you maintain your confident air, women will be much more likely to take notice of you; you don't have to be a male model for women to be interested. Women want a man who is confident in their own skin, and can be just as confident to show a lady off on their arm.

2. Remember good hygiene: This may seem like something simple, but the way you groom yourself will have a great impact on the way other people, especially women, perceive you. Think about it this way, would you rather go out with a woman with smooth hair, brushed teeth, and neat clothes? Or would you choose another woman who didn't seem to care much about her appearance? It's not about being drop dead gorgeous, it's about being clean and neat.

3. Be social: Women aren't going to notice you if you don't spend some time talking to them. You need to take the time to go around and make polite conversation with the people around you, even if you don't know them. Being the quiet guy in the corner makes you seem boring, and being social gives you the better impression of being fun and desirable to have around.

4. Be caring and considerate: Movies will often make it seem cool to be rude or loud around women, or show off to draw their attention. This is, honestly, the last thing that any man should do. Who wants to hang out with a jerk? Women want to be treated properly, cared for; they don't want to be living constantly in the shadow of a man who thinks he's better than she is. It's important to display these qualities if you want women to pay any attention to you.

5. Listen to what she says and respond: Most of the time, when it comes to getting a woman to be attracted to you, it is best to just show that you care about what she has to say, and reply to anything that should be answered. Women want someone to listen to them, and want to hear them talk more. To some men, it can seem a chore to actually pay attention, but it's worth it in the end because women will be much more likely to be attracted to you.

If you follow these easy five tips how to attract women (and trust me, they're not that hard to do, even if it may seem that way at first), the results will be limitless. Women are sure to come flocking to you, and you'll always have a date when you want one. These are the very best top five tips how to attract women.

Relationship Secrets - How to Keep the Spark Alive

By Nigel D St Hill

We are living in an amazing time. Sometimes it may feel as if there is water rising around us: but no human lifeguards out there are capable of saving us. To avoid drowning, we have the personal responsibility to be our own lifeguard, by letting go of outer old ways and embracing new opportunities for growth.
The world is changing so quickly these days, our relationship forms need to change quickly also. Trouble and emotional pain may come when we fail to accept progressive changes in the forms our relationships take.

Many of the rules and strategies our parents and grand-parents used to keep their relationships and marriages together have become ineffective and even counter-productive.
Even if our parents dearly loved us, they could not teach us what they did not know. They could not give us solutions to problems that did not exist in their lifetimes. We therefore are pioneers in a new frontier, facing new challenges that need new strategies. We not only have to master new relationship skills but must also shoulder the added burden of reviewing what we learned from our parents. And what are these new lessons and rules? What do we need to be fulfilled?

Here are 4 Secrets to Get You Started:
1. One secret is to make having fun a priority in your relationships and in your life. Having fun means different things to different people. Figure out what having fun means to you and do those things and create those experiences.

2. Have flowers delivered to your partner's workplace. She will not only enjoy the flowers but will also receive comments and attention from her office mates which will add to her enjoyment.

3. Drive into the country, find a grassy hill and lie with your partner and look up at the clouds. Play the kid's game of looking for shapes in the cloud formations.

4. On her birthday, buy your partner eleven real red roses and one artificial red rose. Place the artificial rose in the center of the bouquet. Attach a card that says: "I will love you until the last rose fades."
Whether we realize it or not, our ability to make conscious decisions about the things in our relationships and in our lives will largely determine our happiness. We constantly make choices, either consciously or unconsciously, about how we will use our time, who we will be with, and what we will do. All these decisions (or lack of decisiveness) positively or negatively affect our happiness. What happens when we don't make a definite "yes" or "no" is we get stuck in "maybe land" and others decide for us by default how we'll live our lives.

We therefore, must look at re-creating our relationships and marriages to support our personal fulfillment. No longer motivated by basic drives, but by higher needs, we expect more from ourselves and from life.

How to Find Love Again in Your Marriage

By Rich Andrews

Have you ever wondered how to find love again in your marriage? Finding love again just when you think it has left your marriage for good may be more possible than you think. If you use the three keys described below consistently over time it has been shown that you can indeed find love again - in your marriage.

The first key is to appreciate what you already have in your spouse.
It's that simple. Appreciate your spouse for who he or she is - not for what you want them to be. It is a change in your attitude that can make all the difference in the world and can start a chain reaction in creating love where it seemed like none existed. Marriage Fitness Relationship Coach and Author, Mort Fertel talks about being able to create love out of nothing. Creating love out of nothing starts with the attitude of your heart.

Everyone wants to be appreciated for who they are. Everyone. The best start is to make yourself change the way you think about your spouse. Stop rewinding and playing all of the negative "tapes" in your head. Why not instead look for the positive qualities your husband or wife possesses. I can promise you that it will be a whole lot more pleasant and productive exercise if you do.

The second key is to demonstrate to your spouse that you appreciate them. You can't just think your way back into finding love. You have to show your spouse that you appreciate and care for them. Telling them is a great way to start. How will they know unless they hear it from you? Words have the power to bring healing or inflict harm. One note of caution here - be sincere and to the point. People can usually tell if we are laying it on thick, or telling the truth. And, when you are using your words to show your appreciation keep it short. Less is definitely more

The third and final key is to let your actions speak louder than your words in telling your spouse that you appreciate them. Words are nice, but actions tend to give your words more power. It's like the old saying, "what you do speaks so loudly that I can't hear what you say." "Speaking" his or her love language with your actions tells your spouse that you really mean what you say. Why not tell your spouse that you appreciate what they do so much that you want to give them a well deserved break. Then follow that with some action. Things like doing the grocery shopping, cooking dinner, or washing the dishes when it is usually your other half that does those jobs sends a clear message: you love and appreciate your spouse. Keep in mind that you are doing this even when you don't feel like it. That really comes through and can create love even in the coldest of hearts.

Now you know three keys on how to find love again in your marriage. You can certainly find other ways to get rekindle romance in your marriage, but it all starts with these basic principles that we all tend to neglect as time goes by in our relationships. So DON'T forget to practice these three keys. Change the way you think and appreciate what you have in your spouse. Tell your spouse that you appreciate them. And show them everyday that you do.

Real Love: Gifts Do Not Prove Anything

By Francis Nmeribe

Gifts play a more than appropriate role in relationships. People see gifts as evidence of interest, love and affection. In the game of love, gifts have loomed large as the only evidence of love for most people. Could it be the truth or is it a lie that has been thought to be the truth for centuries that gifts are critical evidence of love?
Many girls, ladies and women have been heard singing out how much the man they have a relationship cared for them. In all cases, the evidence they have is the fact that he lavishes them with gifts. The ability of men in relationships to buy gifts for their ladies has been misconstrued as evidence of their love. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Gifts are keys of control. When you give anyone a gift, you are in a form of authority over the person. Relationships should be run on mutual grounds with both parties mutually respecting one another. When one of the people involved is providing all the gifts, that person automatically take the center stage in the relationship. This position always has the adverse effect of establishing a master and slave type of relationship instead of a mutually beneficial relationship of equals.
When the ladies are the ones that have the financial capacity to provide the gifts, the result is the same. The relationship becomes lopsided. You have one person calling the tunes and the other expected to only dance to the tune. He or she who holes the purse string is in command. This applies in relationships as it does in politics.

Anytime you ask a woman who has steadily received gifts from an admirer, acquaintance or a lover to discuss how much respect she gets from the partner, her response would startle you. It would startle you to learn how much she has been disrespected, her opinion disregarded.
Gifts give the giver inappropriate feeling of authority. They make inappropriate demand for return favours. People who receive gifts are intrinsically obliged to give something in return. Ladies are generally in less able position to give back in the measure they are given in materials. They pay for gifts with their virtue.

For ninety nine per cent of men, gifts - lavish or simple - are given on purpose - for sexual favours in return. Some men veil it in love, but their motives are clear. Some ladies are able to read the motives but feel powerless for reasons that one cannot easily understand to reject the Greek gifts.
Gifts excite ladies in ways that baffles me. There is a total loss of control by ladies in the presence of gifts. You can feel from a distance the impact of a gift on a lady. She is so elated that you can feel the sexual wiles rising to crescendos that turn the male givers. In appreciation they fly into your hands. They lose the inhibitions if there were any before. Very few men would have their mind on the need to respect our woman's right to be virtuous when she reacts to gifts.

Men know this situation. The bad among the men would exploit this without much ado. This is why it is for the pot bellied men, physically ugly as a duck can have at his beck and call, the most esteemed of ladies or young girls. This is why most think that everything about life is a matter of cash.
The only things gifts prove in a relationship are how evil men can be and how much a weakening agent it is for women. It takes away a woman's ability to remain chaste throughout the pre-marriage period of a relationship. Gifts embolden men to take away the virtue of women.
In real love, therefore, gifts do not prove anything.

Relationship Advice - What Is Needed To Begin A Secure Relationship?

By Beverleigh H Piepers

The beginning of a relationship often sets the tone for whether or not it has a chance of surviving. Most of the time if the relationship is going to make it, then it happens naturally without putting a lot of work into it. Besides, if you have to put too much effort into it, then you may want to question why it isn't coming along easier.
For those looking for a secure relationship there are a few key essentials to get things started out on the right foot...

1. Connected emotionally. This means both parties have more than a surface interest in the relationship. Both people have to be willing to open up to each other about anything. This is easier for women since men try to tune out their partner as soon as they feel as if she is getting too close or if they witness an emotion they are not comfortable with, maybe one that reminds them of something negative with a former partner.
If a man is willing to express their feelings, they feel as if they will be criticized by other men and be labeled as "feminine". But this is exactly what a woman wants. She wants to know she will never have to guess what her partner is thinking, or feeling.

2. Connected communication. Opening up is hard enough but some men can't even get past talking in general. Their idea of talking is asking "what's for dinner", "are we out of milk", "did you pick up the dry cleaning", etc. Once you try to pry more out of them than that, they seize up. Women can be equally difficult to have close communication with, although it isn't quite as common for them.
Having connected communication means being honest with one another. It means having a level of trust so you don't feel you have to worry about your partner trying to hide anything from you. It also means you are willing to share more with your partner than you do with anyone else. And above all, it's really comfortable to do so. There is no embarrassment. There is no hiding. There is no worry about reprisal.

3. Connected physically. You were first attracted to this person for a reason. You felt a spark you don't usually feel with anyone else. There is a reason why you only feel that way about your partner: because they are "the one". Embrace it and take advantage of the fact you found each other.
Learn about yourself... what emotions are you feeling? Are destructive emotions at the heart of any problems you are experiencing? If so, maybe you need to get control of what you are really telling yourself. Look at your beliefs, they can ruin a relationship.

For nearly 25 years Beverleigh Piepers has searched for and found the principles to help you get to the root causes of your crisis.
The solution is not in the endless volumes of information you find across the internet, or the advice your friends give... it's in yourself; the thoughts that make you who you are.

Friends Or Something More?

By Neveen Gohar

Best friends are a priceless part of our lives. They help us through the tough times and create with us the happy memories that keep us going. However, having a best friend from the opposite sex can sometimes get more complicated than the easy and predictable same-sex friendships. Because a best friend takes a lot of your time and attention, it is not a remote possibility that you develop feelings towards to him/her. Some characteristics signify that something more than friendship is going on. If you are unsure of your feelings, you might want to know what traits differentiate between having a best friend and concealing your attraction to someone behind this veil.

You can't seem to fall in love with someone else: Every day you come across many people in work, college or social events. Single persons may start getting attracted to others, even if it is just a meaningless attraction based solely on looks and first impressions. If you find yourself rejecting everyone with excuses that you know are pointless, you may be too consumed by your best friend.
You freak out if someone declares or implies his/her feelings for you: It is common and normal to be loved. What is not common is to shield yourself from all the people who love you or try to get close to you. Many people are not your type or you just can't picture dating them, but isolating yourself from everyone is not a good sign. If the only one you can really picture yourself with is your best friend, than the problem is not with others being wrong for you. It is you being in love with your best friend.

You can't picture your life without this friend for one day: Best friends usually have more than their fair share of contact. If you cannot imagine being in a relationship and having to leave all those juicy conversations because your future boyfriend/girlfriend will need most of your time, then you are probably in love.

You are curious to get closer and closer: You may exchange news about your lives with your best friend, but being curious to meet their family members, visit their at home or understand further details of their life is not normal. You may be nosy, but having these feelings of curiosity only for one specific person is not a sign of a normal friendship.

Because you can only stick to someone who makes you feel comfortable, your friend might stick around for a long time even when he/she has no feelings toward you at all. Consequently, you must never translate your friend's care for you as love. The fact that your friend reciprocates giving most of his/her time to you is not a sign of love. It may just be that you are a good friend and listener whom he/she respects. Even if there is a possibility of returned feelings, do not count on it as long as it remains implicit. If he/she is already in love with someone else, your attachment to your friend is unhealthy and will only lead to undesirable consequences. If you are still confused, take a short break from your friend with any excuse or simply lessen the talk and take a distance from him/her for a while. Be true to yourself, purify your mind and rethink whether this closeness is healthy for you.

Real Romance

By A J Gabriel

In a new relationship, we are all granted a free grace period where tremendous passion, aliveness and intensity is bestowed upon us with minimal effort. There is evidence that there is a physiological reason for this period of infatuation, where the brains of new lovers are saturated with higher levels of phenylethylamine (PEA), a naturally-occurring amphetamine-like neurotransmitter, creating a highly aroused state of body of mind. As a result, we are spontaneously loving, giving, thoughtful, affectionate, playful and passionate. The slightest touch can elicit fireworks and we are fully awake and present in each luscious moment. We are given this wonderful gift - a vision of what is possible to create with each other - and then our task is to transform that vision into reality. But what lies ahead after the glow wears off?

In reality, it is depth not shallowness that creates lasting love. And love doesn't fade unless a couple allows it to fade. The Law of Entropy applies here: without a sustained effort toward keeping anything in the physical universe maintained or improved, things tend to deteriorate and go in the direction of disorder, whether it is your car, your home, your body or your love. People take their love for granted, and they slowly begin to drift apart, until suddenly they realize they are little more than roommates.

And how do you keep your love from fading? What specific efforts help keep the feelings alive and passionate? Although not easy to perform, the two-part answer is simple: Reduce or eliminate hurts and resentments, and create a closer bond by understanding and meeting your partner's emotional needs.

You cannot simultaneously feel resentment and loving toward someone! So the first thing to do is clear up any hurts or resentments standing in the way of your wanting to be close. Listen to your partner's concerns or resentments, validate their experience, and make whatever corrections or amends you need to help them fully resolve and let go of their issue.

Once you have resolved resentments, then you can get closer by giving your partner what they need to feel cared for. Genuine love is a series of small repeated kindnesses, but don't assume you know what your partner needs to feel cared about until they tell you directly and specifically. Don't make the mistake of the man we knew who spent over $900 on flowers for his wife, only to find out she hated flowers. Ask your partner what his or her favorite caring behaviors, and you will have the magic recipe for creating lasting love.

By giving them what they need to feel cared for, to feel cherished and important, you build up an overflowing reservoir of positive feelings in your emotional love bank to draw upon in the future. And when both partners do this, there is a powerful synergistic effect which results in even greater feelings of closeness, passion and love.

Some of the most important emotional needs that people have in intimate relationships include needs for affection; admiration/appreciation; honesty and openness; financial contributions; stimulating conversation; sexual gratification; shared recreational interests; home/family contributions; and physical appearance/health. Sit down with your partner and discuss what each of your needs are, and how well your partner is currently meeting them. If you can consistently fulfill many of your partner's emotional needs, you will find yourself in a passionate, loving, intimate relationship that is based on a deep, loving bond between two committed people.

Unfortunately, many people make the mistake of waiting for loving feelings to be present (as they were in the beginning) to justify performing or giving loving actions toward their partner. This is exactly the opposite of how the real relationship which exists after the glow fades, where loving, caring actions elicit loving feelings in each other. If you sit around and wait for your partner to make you feel good before you engage in any caring behaviors, you will create at atmosphere of keeping score in which resentment rules and any genuine love will definitely fade away over time.
The spirit of Valentine's Day can be with you 365 days a year. Do something every day to continually create the best relationship you can, and you will enjoy a lifetime of lasting love with each other.

How to Set Up a Romantic Valentine's Day Adventure

By John Rice and Siddhartha Bhattacharyya

Even a casual look at any gift store tells you Valentine's Day is knocking at the door. Greeting cards with Cherry Red Roses, Teddy Bear, or Heart Symbols emblazoned on them, or, traditional floral bouquets and plush teddy bears have already in the display. These all spread the message that love is in the air. These days you have eCards, which is a digital greeting card with animated graphics, library of Valentine's Day SMS, and much more to greet your sweetheart. You can also take her to dine out. You have, probably, more options than you would ever need. But you do not have the time to spend with your Valentine. You do not have the right mindset to say - "I love you."

How to Become a Better Valentine
Presumably, if you are reading this article, you are among many of them, who are confused to set priorities. And you might have been, presumably, tagged as 'boring' by your sweetheart already. I am not going to help you out to find your Valentine. This is your business. If you do not have anyone to spend some comforting moments, or, dine out, try to socialize more and try to find someone, who would be equally keen to spend the day and, hopefully, the rest of your life with you! But this article is meant for busy executives, who just do not have time.
They are forgetful about their personal business. They can remember thousands of price lists, most complicated engineering or tax calculations, or can even remember Mozart's symphonies like a maestro. But they cannot remember one of the most important dates - the Valentine's Day.

Remember the Date
So, my first suggestion is to ensure that you do not fail to remember the date. There are many options. You can write it at a prominent space in diary, or worktable, set an alarm in your mobile phone, inscribe on the calendar, fix a remember the date magnet preferably on your wardrobe, or, almirah - that is the place, which you will likely to look back often. It would be too old fashioned idea to write the date on a paper-strip and keep it inside your purse. Most likely, your reminder paper will never see daylight later on. Anyway, the best time to set your reminder is right now.

Plan Early, Plan Well & Set up a Romantic Valentine's Day Adventure
It is needless to say that you have to follow a busy schedule. And miserably, this is not a holiday. So, whatever you want to do, schedule your plan early. Book your movie ticket, if you have any plan to watch movies. Avoid standing in queues. Book your table space in your favorite restaurant early. Otherwise, you can order your greeting card, foods, flowers and other supplies online, schedule the delivery date and place to enjoy nice cozy moments at home. Do not forget to create a romantic ambiance. Spread some rose petals here and there. Light up the candles. Scented candles are great. Spray your favorite perfumes on the curtains and elsewhere. Play your favorite romantic music. And surely, you will have the best time of the year together.

Tips to Avoid being Boring
Buy her a gift well in advance. The beauty of online purchase is that you may be allowed to schedule a delivery date. I know a lot of websites selling flowers allow you to do so. So, you can order greeting card or floral bouquet online and schedule the delivery date just a day ahead of the Valentine's Day. You may also like to send them plush toys - teddy bears, cute puppy pictures or, cute kittens. Although I am against any livestock gift but if you stay together, and both of you love keeping pets, you might want to consider a real puppy, bunny, kitten or fish tank. Jewelries and watches also make great gift giving idea. But you should have enough budget provision and you should know their tastes. It is also a good idea to consult with them while choosing any design. Whatever is your idea, do not forget to buy them a gift. And please do not forget to deliver them in time.

Moreover, send them text messages early. If you are going to office, send greeting
messages on your way to office. Your busy schedule might just make it impossible for you to remember to greet them.

Make your plan early to spend the evening with them. And tell them to remind you about your evening plan. Presumably, if you have booked table space in advance, you are likely to get a call from restaurant. And do not forget to communicate them your love message at the end of the day. Your sweetheart will surely appreciate and remember the time you spent together.
