Bet you never tried this with your girlfriend!

How To Use Your Girlfriend And Have Her Love You For It
By Mac Mcmann

Gallagher, that icon of the eighties said it best, 'the difference between a male and a female is a male can walk by a shoe store, especially when he has shoes on his feet.' You have my permission to use it at those wonderful upcoming holiday parties; I don't know if you still need Gallagher's permission. But the truth of the matter is, women love to shop, women love to spend money, women love to buy things. I am not sure they like things more than men; in fact I am quite sure men like their possessions more than women, partly because the act of obtaining them is not a religious experience for them, but the possessions men own tend to be more revered. Men also tend to have fewer of them.

Men's homes are less knick-knackery, less cluttered, less homey. Men's homes tend to be stark compared to women's, tend to have better electronics, and perhaps one incredible chair or sofa. Some exercise equipment, and a coffee table. What they lack is stuff like, paintings, candles, pillows that complement the curtains, kitchen tables that weren't salvaged from some garage. Towels that complement anything in the house, and a bed that is meant to be a show piece instead of only for two things, passing out on, and you know what else. To that end men, you should keep it clean, and your room fairly decent. Keep your soiled briefs and tainted socks in a laundry basket, not left in a trail to your pass out zone.

So it occurred to me one hung over morning that a painting above my fireplace would be nice. The living room was let's face it, bland. Not only was it dominated by that ridiculously large TV I had to have for a Super Bowl party four years ago, that was now screaming outdated like a white Chevrolet Suburban, but my girl friend was right I needed some color in here. I liked the Aztec clay that my walls were painted; the trouble is everything else was some shade of brown or other. Even the curtains my honey special ordered from The Pottery Barn. In her defense my walls at that time were going to be painted blue, so everything she brought in was a hue of brown, and the rug I picked out, and the sofa my mother bought were all brown.. It goes unnoticed by me, most of the time, and my girl friend stopped remarking on it after the first seven months or so.

But on this dreary lonely, quiet morning, where even the soulful sounds of Lucinda Williams couldn't comfort the blues I was working up, I decided I needed art. Which meant a day, or a weekend, or a month of weekends, going through galleries being met by shopkeepers that were either pretentious or hovering, looking at one painting after another, until they blurred together like past loves.

I would have to take my girlfriend of course, I didn't always agree with her taste, but she knows my taste even better than I do. And going into a shop without her by my side, would be like letting people know I have moments where I am insecure. Neither of which is ever going to happen. Shopping with my special someone is fun, to a point. When it comes to shopping I just don't have that much stamina, those shop lights just tire my eyes, my head, and my feet. My favorite shops have comfortable chairs in a corner, where I can sit out of the way until my sweetie is ready to move on. She never buys anything with me, and it feels like when I take her to a ball game. The gesture is nice, but the energy to enjoy it just isn't there. Certain activities were created to be enjoyed with your gender. Men have sports and sports, both watching and playing. I would have added drinking, but there are times when drinking with a woman has its definite pay-offs. Women have shopping, eating lunch, going to salons, power walking, and going to the bathroom.

When my girl friend goes shopping with her friends, things are purchased, deals are made, and memories are created. Celebratory desserts and wine consumed, and she comes home pleased with life. Victory has been had. It is as if she took three strokes off her golf score.

So the prospect of getting art on my fireplace was not looking bright. Either giving up weekend after weekend thumbing through art, until succumbing to that hopelessness that would lead me to purchase the very next non-ridiculous thing I saw. Or just sit here in all my UPSness décor.

And then it dawned on me, I can give her my credit card, with the direction on buying something for over my fireplace. She can round up her troops, there is shopping to be had, cars will be filled, plans of attack made, and she has a credit card. They can have desserts, she can sneak on there a pair of shoes, and I get a nice piece of art to complement my living room, my tastes. And the next hung over morning I have, I can admire my wall above my fireplace, and then worry about the throw pillows.

Having problems holding on to your man?

5 Powerful Tips To Ensure Your Man Does Not Cheat On You
By Steve Ubah

Without wasting much time, here they are:

Keep him intellectually stimulated

Men are easily bored by women who lack ideas and are not up to speed on the affairs of the day. In order to hold the interest of your man, you must be able to discuss ideas that will expand his knowledge base. Teach him something he does not know, or share your opinion on a subject you know he is passionate about, and you can be sure he will want to have you around for a long time.

Look your best

Beauty and brains attract men like moths to a flame. If you keep him intellectually stimulated, and you also have the body that excites him, you have a powerful magnet that can keep him hooked on you for as long as you wish. Make sure that you do what you must to look good. Do your hair, nails, put on a little makeup, and whatever you do, stay away from layer and layers of makeup. Get clothes that accentuate the best part of you. Do not wear tight-fitting clothes, if you do not have the shapely body to go with it. Know what fits you and wear it.

If you have not enrolled in a gym, you need to do so right away. It is not enough to just eat the right foods and pop diet pills daily. You must eat a balanced diet and enroll in an exercise regimen to help increase your metabolism. Find a workout partner, or sign up for a personal trainer at your gym who can motivate you and design a workout program to fix your problem areas. You will certainly gain good health along with a positive mental attitude. Remember, when you keep fit and look good, you are not doing it just for your man. You are doing it for yourself as well.

Massage his ego once in while

Let your man know how good he is to you and how much you value him in your life. When your man feels that he is adding value to your life, when he feels appreciated, your are massaging his ego. Now you must be careful not to overdo this; otherwise it loses its impact, and your man may see you as a "brown noser".

Give him his space

Do not monitor how he spends every second of the day. Do not put him on a timer. Treat your man like an adult who has the ability to manage how he wants to spend his time. The more freedom you give him, more trusted he feels. And when your man feels you trust him, he is less apt to go out and cheat on you. Men will run away from you, if you try to cramp their style. If you keep tracking your where your man goes and who he is spending time with, you run the risk of alienating him.

Keep him sexually satisfied

A sexually satisfied man is like a dog that is well fed; you will not find it digging through the garbage. A sexually satisfied man is like an employee that works for a company that gives all employees full medical benefits, a great salary and excellent bonuses. You will not see an employee of such a company looking for a job elsewhere. I have used some analogies to attempt to paint a picture for you, but these scenarios fit the point I am making.

Do you always seem to choose the wrong person to fall in love with?

Relationships - How to Choose More Carefully
By Scott Petullo and Stephen Petullo

Many people spend so much time and energy on their love lives, striving for the ideal relationship. While self-love is the only true love in our view, it's understandable why the feeling of being loved and accepted by another is so desirable.

Along the path to finding compatible love, everyone has their share of adverse relationship experiences and some people are fated to have more than others. Although challenging love connections seem to only complicate your life, in time it's easier to see how they've helped you learn and grow.

Sometimes the best path seems to be to go forward with a challenging relationship even if you are aware ahead of time that it could be problematic. Other times a relationship may seem wonderful at first, but then you realize you didn't know the person (or yourself) as well as you thought you did, you end up bringing out the worst in each other, or you simply grow apart.

Our research and work firmly indicate "negative" relationship situations are karmic. Even so, ultimately you do have free will to react to the situations and conditions in your life, and the more in tune with yourself you are, the easier it will be to choose and navigate your relationships with compassion and understanding.

Self-Exploration, and Relationship Traditions

If you avoid self-exploration and solitude at all costs, and you place great importance on relationship traditions, it will be much more difficult for you to avoid the bad apples and emotionally, physically, mentally, financially and, or psychically draining relationships. A fear of being alone and an avoidance of self-analysis will cause you to overlook obvious signs and become involved with or remain with people who, all things considered, work against you.

As discerned through astrological and numerological comprehensive charting methods, handwriting analysis, and psychic insight, some people are born much more relationship oriented, with scarce emotional independence (or are even prone to codependence). Hence, situations involving unhealthy relationships decisively manifest as part of their predestined path. Though even in these cases, they have the option of using free will to make the most of it all.

If you fit into this category, one possible remedy to help limit toxic relationships is having goals that supersede "The One" ideal. School, career, your children, fitness, volunteering, hobbies, or other such things on which to focus your time and energy could help you make better decisions in your love life by helping you to detach and view it all from a higher perspective. At the same time, we've found that people will do as they are fated to do time and time again, but at least awareness can assuage dilemmas and you can work within your destined framework for more desirable effects.

Knowing Thyself and Meditation

If you are one of the few who know themselves very well on levels other than conscious understanding, or meditate regularly to the point of consistently experiencing divine insights, you'll be able to perceive quite a bit about potential matches before getting involved with them. This will also give you a head start in how you approach and respond to people and situations in your life, allowing you to use your f.ree will more constructively.

For example, after meeting a new relationship, friendship, or employment possibility, you'll be able to more easily pause, step back, contemplate the situation, and consider if it's worth the time and energy and if it would be supportive of your goals. But maybe you're also wise enough to know that one's heart can interfere with decision-making.

Metaphysical Tools, Advisors, and Eremites

If you consult with a metaphysical advisor or even actively apply tools such as astrology, numerology, handwriting analysis, or tarot, or work with dream analysis, for example, you may know quite a bit about potential matches even before you meet them. Higher than average psychic abilities can also allow you to perceive the "good" and "bad," or at least what you need to know, about people and situations ahead of time. Unfortunately, this may often cause you to be forced to decide between the complexities of the connection and being alone, and remaining single may seem like the better choice more often than not.

This dynamic could partially explain why "wise women," "old sages," and other mystically inclined individuals are often depicted as living alone, such as in the forest or on a mountain top; they see beyond the surface, detect the spiritual reasons at the start, and opting out might seem more appealing. Of course, they may also be alone because they enjoy it, their collective natal and timing indications symbolically choose this for them, they are simply taking a break between relationships, or they have so many friends (guides, spirits, etc.) in the unseen dimensions that taking on ones in the here and now may seem unnecessary or pose too much of a burden.

There will always be "good" and "bad" apples in the barrel of your love life and in the rest of your life. Expanding your awareness will help guide you to make smarter choices, and when the only option is a connection that lacks a reasonable level of compatibility, use your f.ree will to accept where you are and navigate to a better place. Although due to your personal fate, you may not be able to manifest more desirable circumstances right away, but eventually you'll be able to make the best of even the most trying times.

Still trying to get over the loss of your girlfriend?

Recovery From Being Dumped By a Woman - 10 Quick Tips
By Chase Brooks


Being dumped by your girlfriend can be a very stressful thing. Sometimes you'll be over it in 5 minutes. Other times it'll feel like you're about to die. This article is for any guys having problems dealing with it.

Getting over it is by no means easy, but you can definitely reduce the blow and make the recovery smoother and less painful.


Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind - Every time you look at a picture of her, read her love letters or see anything else that reminds you of her you're going to rip open old wounds. You'll know you're over her when you can look at her photos and not feel the despair and sadness you may feel now. But until then, take it all away and either get rid of it or put it somewhere hidden.


Take a Walk - Every day for 20 or 30 minutes. The exercise will put some energy into you that you may be lacking. The fresh air will make you feel great and you'll have an easier time piecing everything together.


Get a Haircut - Find the coolest haircut that'll suit you and get it done. Better yet, get a whole new look. Not only will you feel more attractive, you'll reverse the self-confidence damage from being dumped.


Inspire Yourself - Remember that old book that always made you feel energized and inspired after reading it? Or was it a movie? Whatever it was, get it out and watch it/read it whenever you feel down.


Sweat It Out - A great way to get over being dumped is to start a new work-out plan. Exercise regularly. Do cardio once a day. The chemicals your body releases after an intense workout will relax you and you'll feel great. BONUS: Although they don't like to admit it, a toned and refined body is very sexy to women. Use this newly acquired power to your advantage.


Keep Busy - Is there anything you've always wanted to learn, but never did? Maybe a new language? Street magic? A new sport? A new musical instrument? Whatever it is, now is the best time to start. You've got no excuse! If there's no local clubs, you can learn just about anything online. By setting goals within your new hobby and working towards them whenever you have free time, you'll find yourself worrying about your ex less and improving yourself instead.


A New Companion - This'll make some of you guys cringe, but getting a new pet is an idea. It'll keep you occupied and busy. If it's a dog, you can spend time teaching it new tricks. If you're after a new woman, dogs (especially puppies) are irresistible to most girls and make great conversation starters.


Go Wild - Throw a party. Get all your friends together and go crazy. Doing this every now and then will do you a lot of good, but don't get addicted. You want to surround yourself with your friends as much as possible when you're feeling down about a relationship.


Don't Be A Wuss - Crying is okay. Constantly calling your ex and pestering her about getting back with you is not. Not only will she start to detest you, you're going to damage your self-esteem. No one likes a needy guy. If you want any chance at getting back with her, try changing yourself and not her. If she sees you in a new light maybe she'll regret her decision to dump you. I've managed this before, so it's definitely possible.


Say "Yes" - Someone offering you lunch? Say yes. Buddy wants to take you paint balling? Say yes. Friends want to meet up and go clubbing? Say yes. Keep your life busy and exciting.

Getting over a break-up is never easy. But there are good ways and bad ways to deal with it. I've experienced both, so however you feel right now I'm sure I've been there. Good luck, I wish you all the best!

Chase focuses on writing articles dealing with the stress related to break-ups and provides tips and advice on how to become happy again.

How To Find Your Online Soul Mate?

How To Find Your Online Soul Mate?
By Amatista Luna


Internet has meant the beginning of a new way of life for many people. A few years ago nobody would have thought that would be one of the most popular ways to meet people. After all, you need to leave the house to meet people, so how could online dating really work?

The reason is people have increasingly busy lives, making it hard to meet people, though the rage can also be blamed on the integration of technology into our daily lives. Whatever the reasons, online dating is a great way to meet people, you can meet the real love match if you follow a few online dating tips that are so easy and straightforward and anyone can follow them.

The main thing to keep in mind is that online dating is just like dating in the real world. It´s a numbers game, and the more people you contact, the better your chances of meeting that special someone.

• Having a good online dating profile.

Think of your online dating profile as a snapshot of your life. You may find it useful to grab a pen and paper and jot down some ideas on what to include before filling in the profile on screen Your online dating profile has to be appealing, but it also has to be accurate. Make sure you include some of your likes and dislikes, but keep it positive throughout. No one likes anyone who constantly complains! It´s worth remembering that a vital aspect of who you are is your outlook on life, try to provide a taste of who you are and what you stand for as a person. Remember to keep your profile short, and make sure you show some wit!

• Subscribe to a dating site

To increase your chances of meeting someone is to pay the subscription price, at least for a few months or look for a free site. When you subscribe, you are free to contact other members so that a dialogue can get started. It´s ok if you don´t pay at first, just to feel the site out, but if you don´t pay, it may lower your chances of a love match.

• Contact as many people as you can

Be realistic! not everyone is going to look like a supermodel or fit into a cookie cutter description. Give all people a chance and you will increase your chances at love. You don´t have to lower your standards and go meeting anyone who is in the site, just make sure you´re not discarding people who might actually be a good match.

• Never talk bad about yourself

Never! Never put yourself down and tell the person they probably won´t like you because.... This is very unattractive to a potential mate. People are going to be interested in you if they feel you´re happy, confident and secure with who you are. After a time you can say what you don´t like about yourself, if you get into a relationship. Until then, be mysterious and you will find many potential mates who want to know more about you, plant curiosity and collect.

• Make time for your online dating relationship.

Does your online date get in touch with you regularly? And do you do the same? Do you take online dating for granted? Neglecting (or not prioritizing) virtual meetings can be considered abuse or neglect, so treat each other's time with respect. If you are trying to find love online the least you can do is being serious about it.

Online dating is a great way to meet people; you have a tank full of profiles from which to choose. You get to know people on the inside before you get to know them physical and this way you will go to the certain. Just make sure you keep it realistic, be yourself and remember to have confidence in everything you do. So there you go this tips will take you close to meet your online soul mate.

What to Do When a Jealous Person Engages in Questionable Behavior

What to Do When a Jealous Person Engages in Questionable Behavior
By Lance W.


We have all known people who were jealous and exhibited jealous behavior, it is very unfortunate and totally disruptive. I hope you are not a jealous person and are going to hunt me down for writing this article? But, if you do, I know how to handle crazy people like you - just kidding.

Look, if you are the jealous type, or know some who is, then you need to do a little research on where this is coming from and how to mitigate its unfortunate affects on family, relationships and friends. Let me recommend a very good and interesting book to you on this subject:

"Jealousy" edited by Gordon Clanton and Lynn G. Smith - 1986

This book is a compilation of some of the best short works on the subject of Jealousy and if you ever meet anyone who is jealous to the point of rage or uncontrollable, then you will be so happy to own a copy of this book to understand what is going on. The first chapter is a story of the confessions of a jealous wife and also in the first section is an interesting peace on sexual jealousy. The second section has a chapter on the jealousy of children, which is quite relevant for parenting or understanding youth.

Part III is interesting and it is about the over all problems that are innate in humans and how jealousy impacts our culture, how it is used against consumers and how it hurts marriages. The Fourth Section discusses the reality of attempting to manage jealousy and its irrational and destructive nature. There is a whole chapter on "techniques for intervention" which is well worth reading.

I recommend this book for any man who is having problems with a jealous woman or several of them. It is good reading and relevant to all in society to understand how to deal with jealousy tendencies in our culture.

My name is Lance Winslow and I am a semi-retired entrepreneur, retired Franchisor and now I am a consultant brain-4-hire, internet writer and author. I got bored in retirement so I founded the Online Think Tank - http://www.worldthinktank.net If you would like to send me an email just to say hi, discuss an article, send me hate mail or need some advice you can find me at; http://www.carwashguys.com/history/founder.html Have a great day and thanks for reading - tell me about you?

Cunnilingus - Tips to Help Your Woman Achieve Mind-Blowing Orgasms

Cunnilingus - Tips to Help Your Woman Achieve Mind-Blowing Orgasms
By Susan Johnsson


Cunnilingus is a popular method for helping most women achieve orgasms with little difficulty. Here is a cunnilingus exercise, technique and position that you can use in order to give your woman mind-blowing orgasms;

The Envelope Lick

The vagina is an extremely sensitive area. This is due to the majority of the nerve endings that are located in the outer regions in the vagina. The nerve concentrations in the deeper areas are sparser. The clitoris and labial lips are especially sensitive to touch.

For this technique, the focus is on the labial lips. Here the man will use his tongue to stimulate the inner and outer lips in slow, deliberate motions, as if licking an envelope. Either the tip of the tongue or a flat tongue can be used, as these will provide very different sensations.

Cunnilingus Exercise

This exercise is designed to strengthen and improve the dexterity of the tongue.

Start by sticking your tongue out as far as you can. Now curl your tongue upwards and try to touch the tip of your nose with the tip of your tongue and hold it there for 10 seconds. Now swirl your tongue around in a clockwise direction always meeting back up with the nose. Repeat this 10 times, and then reverse the direction of the swirl, repeating it ten times as well.

When swirling the tongue, try move it as far as you can in the different directions.

Through the Gateway

Here the female lays on her side with a pillow placed under her arm for support. One leg is lifted so the male can come in from behind. He wraps one arm around her lifted leg, and the other arm under the flat leg. The male then moves into the vagina, once again licking in an upward movement while the arms can freely explore the rest of the female's body. The female has a clear view of the action, which in itself is extremely exciting.

Kama Sutra Orgasms - Best Positions to Give Her Orgasms Ecstasy

Kama Sutra Orgasms - Best Positions to Give Her Orgasms Ecstasy
By Crid Lee

Every man will want to get their partners to achieve orgasms while making love. When she does not reach orgasm during lovemaking, you will feel down and lousy. But with the help of the Kama Sutra, you will be able to discover some of the classic positions that will definitely send the both of you to climax.

1. The Doggy Position. This is a classic and highly stimulating position for couples to enjoy during lovemaking. The woman will go down on all fours, taking her weights on her forearms. The man will kneel behind her and penetrate her from the back. The position is very pleasurable for both partners as the deep penetration will not only stimulate the vaginal walls, but also the g-spot. However, some women may feel demeaning if asked to adopt this position. Therefore it will be wise for you to communicate with your partner beforehand and make sure that she is ok with it.

2. The Clip Position. This position will be very relaxing for the man as the woman will do most of the work here. The man lies down with both his legs outstretched. She will sit astride him and lean back, so that he can play with her clitoris while she is rocking. The man will have an ideal view of his partner making love to him, which will definitely turn him on greatly.

3. The Lotus Position. This is an extremely intimate and passionate position which I will strongly encourage you to try it out with your partner. The man sits with both his legs crossed on the bed. The woman will sit on him with both her legs wrapping around his waist. He will then help her to move her hips with his hands and can also caress her breasts with his mouth and stroke her buttock. Once the man has ejaculated, the couple should stay in this position and embrace each other at least for a few minutes, so as to enjoy the passionate, satisfying, intimate moment.

These 3 positions that I have shared with you are consider the best in the Kama Sutra manual according to my opinion. You may not feel the same. Do read up the Kama Sutra manual and discover the ideal position for you and your partner.

So He Wants Sex, But She Wants Romance - It's A Dilemma That An Exchange Of Gifts Might Solve

So He Wants Sex, But She Wants Romance - It's A Dilemma That An Exchange Of Gifts Might Solve
By Peter Crump


It's the age old conundrum. He's interested in sex, and she's interested in romance. It's difficult to strike a balance, and it's often the cause of stress in relationships.

From my perspective as a non expert in this area I think it's true. There is a fundamental mismatch between what men want and what women want from their personal relationships.

It's a shame it's this way. You can't blame men, that's how they are. It's how they're wired.

And equally you can't blame women, it's how they are. It's how they're wired.

Of course that's not to say that men don't like romance, or that women don't like sex, but when it comes down to it I think it's clear that men look for more sex from their relationships, and women look for more romance.

We can of course see this as a major problem in relationships. A stress point in relationships. A burden, a cause of friction and a cause of distress.

However I think we ought to look at it differently. If this is just how it is why not see it as an opportunity to celebrate our differences and accept them. Accept, if I'm a man, that she wants romance more than I.

Accept, if I'm a woman, that he wants sex more than I.

And do something about it, use it as a fulcrum to improve our relationships, not to allow it to destabilize them.

I write about gifts for men. I'm not a relationship expert, so take everything I say with a grain of salt. However I look at this from the point of view of gift giving.

I see an opportunity for gift giving to become a part of our relationships. That gift giving can celebrate this particular difference between men and women, and help to bridge the gap.

How? Just like this. A couple need to talk about their likes and dislikes in the relationship. There will be many of course, but I'm just talking about this particular one. And if he is more interested in sex, and she in romance, they need to recognise this. Then they need a strategy to overcome it, and make it a strength in the relationship.

In my view they can do this by gift giving.

So she accepts that he loves sex. She accepts that if the relationship is to run as smoothly as she would like she ought to pander to this a bit. By giving him some nice sexy gifts from time to time. Sexy gifts a man would love.

I won't go into details, I talk more about this on my site, but I'm not talking porn movies or anything like that, just some small and sexy ideas that any man would more than love.

Equally, and just as importantly, he needs to accept that even if it's not so important to him, she loves romance, and long walks, and flowers, and so on.

And he needs to pander to this. To bring gifts to the relationship that she will enjoy. Romantic gifts that he may not normally have thought of.

He needs to put in the effort to bring more romantic gifts to the relationship, and she needs to put in the effort to bring more sexy gifts to the relationship.

And in this way, in my view, it will become stronger for both, and they may even find that the romantic gifts and sexy gifts bring it all together so that the entire relationship grows and becomes more fulfilling for both. That their sex life improves and their romance life improves.

And then the fundamental conundrum has become a positive, and has strengthened the relationship for them both.

Dating and Relationship Advice - How to Keep Your Romance Alive and Well

Dating and Relationship Advice - How to Keep Your Romance Alive and Well
By Bj Moorer


If you have managed to weather the storms of life and still remain in a long-term relationship – Congratulations! Well done! Hopefully, you and your partner enjoy good communication, closeness, compatibility and the comfort of each other. You are familiar with each other and may often find one can start a sentence and the other can finish it. You flow well together.

You may be thinking, yes we did make it. Ok snap out of it. You still have work to do! Yes work! You have accomplished much but you have more work to do. Both of you must work to keep your relationship going in the right direction.

Here are five things you can work on beginning now:

1. Consider your love a privilege. Never take your partner for granted.

2. Have interests that are separate from your partner as well as doing things together. It is important that you find many things you enjoy together, and then continue to do them together. But, there should be things of interest you pursue on your own. If you play volleyball with your friends on Thursdays, continue doing that. If the two of you love to eat Seafood on Friday nights, keep that up as well. It is just as important that you have one or two hobbies you do by yourself, just to make sure that your individual needs are being met.

3. Take time to explore new things together. What have you two talked about but never got around to doing? Is it travel? A new sport? If you love to travel and play tennis, start doing just that. You could take day trips to different places to play tennis. Mix both activities together. You may want to take some classes together. Think of cooking or even ballroom dancing (Yes, that is one hot off my personal list).

4. Have conversations like you used to. Do you recall when you listened to everything your partner said? You know, hanging on their every word? If you find yourself having conversations while watching TV or half sentences over dinner, stop! Really listen and tune into your partner. This one change can make all the difference in the world.

5. Work on You. Yes you! Whatever extra things you did when you first fell in love, pick them up and start doing them again. I am not talking about wearing those old disco platform shoes. Keep those if you must only for old times sake. Take inventory and see if there are areas you can improve yourself. If there are, begin to make changes. Small changes will have big payoffs if continued.

The idea here is to broaden your horizons. Think of things you both like to do as well as things you would enjoy solo. Get busy working on keeping your relationship fresh.

Here is a Method That is Helping You Recover and Rebuild a Relationship After an Affair

Here is a Method That is Helping You Recover and Rebuild a Relationship After an Affair
By David W Richards


It must hurt so bad to be cheated by the one you love. A spouse, a lover. Some decide to cut the relation off. They file for a divorce. But, there are some who don’t want to end the relationship. They forgive the cheater.

People ask, ‘How can you forgive that easily?’, ‘What if it happens again?’

Those people asking have their reasons. How would you open your heart to someone who has betrayed your trust?

Is it possible?

It is possible for some people. It might be hard for you to imagine. But, there are many who could do it.

If you plan to keep your marriage, try these tips below:

• Make sure that the affair is really over

Ask your spouse to prove it. If it is not over yet, you’d better reconsider your decision to keep the relationship. However, if the evidences are certain, don’t try to look for more unnecessary proves. Your curiosity might lead to inaccurate facts.

• Find out the cause

There must be a cause. It could be the communication that has run dry, or sexual issue, or lack of appreciations. Discus it. Then, get a solution to that.

• Forgive and Forget

It is easy to say but it is the only way to succeed. Learn to forgive. Free your heart from revulsion. Clean it up. Empty it so that you can fill it in with a new chapter. And now, about your mind. Try to self-brain-wash. Discard any memory that might lead you back to the past related to the affair. This has also to be done by the cheating spouse.

• Rebuild Your Self-Esteem

Normally, after facing an affair done by your spouse, you would be lack of self-esteem. Being betrayed can do great damage to the way you feel about and look at yourself. But, remember that an affair does not change the fact that you are a wonderful person. You are still as beautiful, desirable, and intelligent as ever. This is important for a new start.

• Start it all over again

Create a new happier life together.

What to do when your spose says I don't Love You

Why Second Marriages Are More Likely to Fail - Second Marriage Pitfall #4

Why Second Marriages Are More Likely to Fail - Second Marriage Pitfall #4
By Richard Nicastro


“If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” Right? The same age-old wisdom that encourages so many of us to get back on our bikes (or horses or surfboards) over and over again in search of perfection should work like a charm when it comes to marriage, too. Shouldn’t it? Yet many people are surprised to find out that second marriages are more likely to end in divorce. Irving, a fifty-four-year old real estate broker from Austin, Texas said, “You’d think the second time around would be easier, that I’d be better prepared. Being divorced once was hard enough. I never thought it would happen all over again.”

When first marriages fail, many people feel that time, precious time, has been wasted and an opportunity for ever-lasting happiness has been lost. After all, wasn’t the desire for happiness why you decided to marry in the first place?

Understandably, the painful experience of divorce can change your attitude about marriage. It changed Irving’s. The ten years he dedicated to his first marriage now felt like years that could never be reclaimed. His altered mindset negatively shaped his second marriage: “It happened once and it could happen again. I’m not going to waste another ten years waiting to find out this time.”

Since his first divorce, Irving became overly aware of his age and the passage of time. While his second marriage proceeded smoothly, time wasn’t an issue. He enjoyed the worry-free days with his new wife and felt stable, secure and relaxed. But when he and his partner fought (like all couples do), his perspective shifted dramatically. Each argument left him wondering about the number of “good years” he’d have left to meet a new companion. He’d think, “I’d rather end it now and begin looking for someone else sooner rather than later. Why wait until I’m sixty-five?”

Irving struggled with a mindset many people bring to their second marriages:

Pitfall #4: “Are you the one? I need to know before it’s too late!”

Despite that pressured attitude, Irving entered his second marriage determined to make it work. Unfortunately, he also entered his second marriage with a focus on an escape-hatch he had ready and waiting—after all, the clock was ticking. This mindset had a powerful effect and decreased his level of commitment, especially when he and his second wife encountered the usual bumps in the road.

Look for and challenge this mindset

Ask yourself the following questions:

Does the following statement resonate for you?: “I’m not going to waste time the second time around to find out this isn’t working.”

What are the benefits of such a mindset? What are the pitfalls?

When is this mindset most prominent in your second (or third) marriage?

What impact does this have on your level of commitment? On your ability to work out differences with your spouse?

As with overcoming any potentially destructive attitude, awareness is key. A little self-examination can go a long way in helping you overcome the pitfalls of the “hurry up and fail, or hurry up and succeed” trap.

Is your relationship worth protecting? Are you ready to make your marriage everything it can be?

How To Know If He's The One For You

How To Know If He's The One For You
By Lucy Doyle


Marriage and commitment is about love, but it's also about compatibility. Two people can be deeply in love with one another, but their marriage will still fail miserably. The sad truth is that sometimes love is not enough. There comes a time when you ask yourself the ultimate question: Is he the one?

Why it's important to ask yourself this question?

The dismal statistics state that over 33% of marriages end up in divorce and there is a 50% infidelity rate among couples. Why is this happening? All these couples used to be in love, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten married. That's why you have to ask yourself this question. If you don't want to get married only to wake up years later and realize that you married the wrong man, you have to know that he's the right one for you. Otherwise, you may have a few years of love and happiness, but you're likely to see those years end in a bitter and expensive divorce.

Why are so many couples drifting apart?

The main thing that couples fail to do is ask each other the right questions before rushing into a commitment. I'm not talking about superficial questions such as how many brothers and sisters your man has or where was he born, but deep and penetrating questions. Most women wait until they are married to find out what their man thinks about the important issue in life such as:


Religion
The way to bring up children
Whether or not he even wants children
Does he believe in marriage
How he handles money
What are his long term goals
And many more important issues. It is the difference of opinion in these issues which causes couples to break up.

You wondering how to know if he is the one for you? Ask the right questions on the important issues and you'll find out.

It is estimated that 83% of divorces wouldn't have occurred had the couples asked each other the right questions. Don't allow yourself to become part of the many couples which end up in divorce and breakups. You have an obligation to yourself to ask your man the right questions.

How To Get Your Ex Back - 8 Great Tips

How To Get Your Ex Back - 8 Great Tips
By Ron Weber

If you are wondering how to get your ex back now that you have broken up, than let me tell you - in most cases it is doable. But the problem is that most people are doing it wrong. In fact, in many cases you will be driving your ex even further from you and not back to you!

This doesn't have to be that way. You simply need to learn how to get your ex back. It is possible, and involves doing certain things and avoiding other things.

First, let's talk about the thing you should not do. Simply avoid doing these, no matter what:

1. Chasing you ex. This is a big no-no. If you chase her or him with phone calls, emails, sending your friends as messengers and any other tricks, the only thing that will happen is that your ex start hating or fearing you. This leaves no chance of comeback what so ever.

2. Stalking your ex - again, a big no-no. If you will try to force them to see you by ambushing her or him you will only make things worse. People will start calling you "a stalker" and you will find it hard to make new friends this way.

3. Being depressed - If you let yourself slide into depression, other areas of your life will suffer. Some people even lost their job because their relationship came to an end. Don't let this happen to you.

4. Avoiding social life - If you will become a hermit as a result of a break up, that again you will only be punishing yourself. There is a big world out there, and you can find love. Be that your ex or another person.

So, what should you do? If you really want to start seeing how to get your ex back, try practicing the next 4 ways of action.

1. Create more value for yourself - When your ex left you, in many cases it was because she did not value you and your relationship high enough to stay. Therefore, your job is to create more value for yourself. For example, if you're a man, you can build more value by her hearing about you meeting other women.

2. Stay in touch - though it may hurt, stay in touch with your ex. This can be with email or sms, if you are not comfortable talking. When you do that, you remain her or him of the good times you had together and you also signal that there is a way back.

3. Do a make over - in many cases, being in a relationship for more than a year makes you less groomed. If you feel you've been neglecting yourself lately, start going to the gym and buy new and cool clothes. This will make you feel better about yourself and you will resonate that feeling to your surroundings. Your ex will feel that too.

4. Let her or him seek you out - Don't chase your ex around. Let them come to you. Doing all the things we just talked about will help you regain your confidence and your ex will feel that. Confident people attract other people, and your ex will be attracted to you again.

How to get your ex back is not rocket science. It's a simple process that will work if you apply it. If you and your ex belong together, than you will get back together eventually.

Ron Weber is a dating expert. You can find his experiences posted at the how to get your ex back blog. Just follow along as he posts his thoughts about the subject, and learn how to apply them to your life.

Why Do Women Forgive And Stay?

Why Do Women Forgive And Stay?
By Debbie Ford

Women are emotionally and psychologically hardwired to forgive when they believe that somebody has true remorse for their bad behaviors and the “dirty deeds” that they’ve committed. Political wives often have much more at stake than most. Spouses, like Senator David Vitter’s wife, are usually highly educated and bright women who realize that everyone has human shortcomings and impulses that sometimes drive us to make bad choices and sabotage the good things in our lives. Smart women weigh the facts, measuring what they gain from the relationship versus all that they have to lose. Even if the situation has been publicly humiliating and emotionally devastating, like their husbands, they are serving a greater agenda which has them make strategic decisions instead of emotional choices.

There is so much more to these marriages than we can see or know about simply by looking through the lens of the media. Most women who choose to forgive and stay in their marriages have children. They’re really the ones that have the family values. “Till death do us part” is a vow taken very seriously for many of them. They are the ones with the integrity and the commitment. These qualities and traits are probably why their husbands chose them in the first place.

Most women carry a very strong vision for what is possible for the big future that they can create together as a couple and a family. Look at Hillary Clinton. She’s making her husband work for her day and night. She could have left, but she stayed. She clearly had a vision. That kind of vision, along with the hope and the faith in their husbands (as well as a dose of denial), drives many women to deal with and handle whatever crises come up in their marriage. Whether that vision can carry the couple through turbulent times or whether it descends into a false fantasy of “happily ever after” is the question. During these painful crossroads, people often have a spiritual opening or awakening. The shame and humiliation that they’re confronted with has them crack open, so to speak. It is at the times when we are exposed that we are forced to face some of our greatest fears and discover our resilience and capacity to survive and ultimately transcend that which we feared would destroy us. Thus the adage, “That which doesn’t kill us, makes us stronger.” These experiences of betrayal and pain often become defining moments: Which road will they choose? After their partners have cheated on them, sometimes women have the most intimate conversations they have ever had, and truth and honesty clear the way for a new beginning.

And of course, women staying in dishonest and dysfunctional relationships can have nothing to do with forgiveness: they stay because they’re scared to leave, whether their fears have to do with money, social status, or emotional fragility. They simply join in the deceit, go into denial, and stay because it’s the easiest choice.

As a side note, in working with thousands of people from all over the world, for me the kind of sex scandal we’re seeing with Senator Vitter isn’t shocking or surprising. I see again and again that when someone is so committed to and righteous about a particular issue, they’re often driven by their shadow, the disowned or rejected parts of their own humanity. In this example, Senator Vitter developed his political platform in part on the sanctity of marriage and his very human dark side popped up and violated that very position. Another example is Jesse Jackson, standing for family and strong Christian values and then having affairs and a child out of wedlock.

Become the Mate You Desire

Become the Mate You Desire
By Carmin Wharton



When seeking a mate, a critical step is to focus on the person on the inside first then consider the potential mate’s outside appearance. I read something recently, which reminded me of another critical step in realizing the relationship of your dreams. First, let me interject this, the principle I am about to share with you today can be applied to any relationship. This includes your relationship with your parents, kids, friends, and co-workers – every relationship imaginable. But for our purposes, we are going to focus on romantic relationships.

Here it is. Whatever you desire in a mate, to attract that person with those traits, you must become yourself. This is definitely easier said than done.

If you desire a mate who is kind, gentle and compassionate, then you need to become kind, gentle and compassionate. Very often we tend to be more congenial to co-workers and friends than we are to family – the people we live with or see often – our families. This includes your parents, siblings, kids or other relatives. We pretty much realize that these folk cannot divorce us and unless we’ve committed some horrific crime, they probably won’t cast us out of their lives. So, we tend to not be as kind, gentle and compassionate toward them as we are to others who are not kin to us – tied eternally to us through blood relations. But, to attract the kind, gentle and compassionate mate we desire, we need to exhibit these qualities in every relationship we are involved in.

If you desire a mate who is financially secure, then you must make sure your financial house is in order. If you have past due bills, make every effort to catch them up or work out a payment plan with your creditors. If your savings account is nil, think of ways you can save more money or increase your income and began to save and invest.

If you desire a mate who is physically fit, then you must become physically fit. If you are not in good shape, commit today to an exercise and eating regimen to get in shape. Heck, you may even meet the love of your life at the gym while you are working out or at the park while you are walking. You just never know.

If you want a relationship with someone who has class and dignity and knows how to carry him or herself then make sure you are a class act. Are you refined and do you act appropriately in all situations?

If you desire a relationship with a spiritual person who knows God and acts like it, are you really spiritual or are you just going through the motions? Are you in church every Sunday and have absolutely no connection to the Spirit? Can you honestly say that you have grown spiritually or in your faith walk to the point that you trust God emphatically?

If you want a relationship in which the person will not cheat or lie, can you honestly say you don’t cheat or lie? I’m not speaking of infidelity per se. Do you fudge a bit and cheat at work, i.e. arrive 10 minutes late every day and make sure you are out the door 10 minutes early? If you received more change back that was due you from a purchase did you bring it to the attention of the clerk? Do you lie to yourself about things?

If you want someone who is dependable, can you be depended on? Can you depend on yourself? Do you make promises to yourself that you do not keep? Can others depend on you or do you make excuses when you don’t follow through on something you’ve promised to another?

What is that I hear you saying? Oh, you are already everything you desire in a mate. Then what’s the problem? The problem is in your expectation. Have you been in so many unfit relationships that you are expecting the worst? Ahh hah. Well, you will also attract what you expect. Expect that all men are liars and cheats and that is the type of man you will continue to attract. Every guy you attract will be a part of the canine family fit for the Humane Society. Expect that all women are after your money and can’t be trusted and that’s exactly the type of woman you will continue to attract. She’ll always be asking as Janet Jackson says, “What have you done for me lately?”

Finally, your self-worth and self-esteem must be at the level where you know you deserve the best and then you must have the courage to do one of two things: wait with peace and expectation (being sure not to put your life on hold) or if you are in a relationship not worthy of you, get out.

Are you already the type of person you are seeking a relationship with? Yes? Great – you are on your way to a satisfying relationship! No? Why are you still sitting? Get up and get busy becoming who you know you are looking for.

In Chapter 2 of my book, Lessons Learned: While Looking for Love in All the Wrong Faces I suggest that an individual seeking a mate sit down and write down every single physical attribute they desire in a mate, then set that list aside. Now, sit down and write another list of everything you desire in a mate's character. The reason: by writing out the first list, you get what you should not be focusing on out of the way. Now you can focus on what does matter - what your ideal mate should be like on the inside.

Please feel free to use this article in your newsletter, e-zine or blog. However, the byline below must be included in its entirety.

Redesigning your Life after Divorce

Redesigning Your Life After Divorce
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Annie_O'Neill]Annie O'Neill

It is tough when a long-term marriage breaks up but harbouring feelings of bitterness does not serve you well. These negative feelings prolong the agony and hold you back from rebuilding your life. Instead, why not redesign your life?Remember that it will take time to ‘get over’ your partner leaving but also believe that you will recover.

The Road to Recovery

Work through the negative emotions – it is natural to be angry at first. It is almost a grieving process, although your partner might not be dead he/she has gone and it will take time to adjust. However, don’t hang on to those feelings of anger and bitterness – let them go. Jane says: “Once I had got over the shock of him leaving I gained a new lease of life. At first I was resentful that he had left me and I began to think that I had wasted thirty years of my life with my ‘traitorous’ husband. Fortunately, my divorce coach asked me to list the good things about my marriage and once I had the list I realised that they had not been wasted years.

My marriage had given me two wonderful children, we had travelled extensively, and we had made some great friends, several of who supported me through the darkest days of the divorce. I slowly took up new hobbies and through them met new people. I suddenly realised after three years that I was doing what I wanted to do and that I was happier than I had been when I was married”.

Let your friends support you. Chris says “Don’t be shy about relying on friends – good friends don’t mind”. Diane agrees, she says she could not have got through without her friends. In fact both lived with friends after the break up of their marriages. Diane says that she realised that on the whole “people are very generous and kind”

Make the divorce process as painless as possible. Try to pick a lawyer who offers a mediation service and collaborative divorce. It is important to keep the communication channels open.

Sonia says that she found it hard to adjust to being single but she kept a journal of her feelings and found that this helped. She was scared of being on her own at first but she worked through the fear, she started meeting new people and, after about three years, she began dating again.
Other people take longer to start dating again. I recently met a lady who had been divorced for eight years and was only just starting to feel comfortable with the idea of dating.

The most important thing about redesigning your life is that you are happy with yourself, that you like yourself and the life you have made. This is why negative emotions can hold you back.

Many people find that divorce makes them stronger. They are no longer prepared to tolerate things that they don’t like. If you are happy with yourself you don’t need to tolerate anyone because emotionally you are self-sufficient.

Make time to really decide what you do and don’t want and then plan the steps you need to take to redesign your life.

The biggest challenge is deciding what you do want. So many people don’t know, maybe you haven’t even thought about it?

Steps to redesigning your life

Set aside a couple of hours, go somewhere you won’t be disturbed and think about what you want your life to be like. Write down all the things you would like to be, do and have. Write everything down, however crazy it may seem.

· What did you used to enjoy before you were married?

· Did you sacrifice any dreams, ambitions or hobbies during your marriage?

· Imagine that you are 90 years old, looking back over your life – what memories would you like to have?

· What would you like people to be saying about you?

Now think about what steps you could take towards achieving your perfect life. Don’t think that it’s hopeless and you can’t change anything; think about what is stopping you from being, doing and having what you want.
By making small changes, going one step at a time and trying different things you can change your life.

Five secrets to creating a life you love

1. Know what you want.

2. Be willing to take action.

3. Believe that there is no failure, only feedback.

4. Be willing to try different things - if what you are doing isn’t working then do something different.

5. Be positive and believe that you can create a life you love.

I am a qualified Divorce Coach. I have been divorced and widowed. I understand the emotions associated with being on your own after being in a long-term relationship. I have had to reinvent my life on two occasions and am proof that it can be done. I am now self-employed, with a job that I love. I am also married again, very happily.

Relationship Advice - Five Things A Woman Needs From Her Man

Good relationship advice is important to every couple that is involved in a relationship. Whether you're man or a woman, you should be aware of the five things that every woman needs from her man. Without doubt there are other things that could be contributed to this list, but I believe that at least these five "needs" are necessary to the success of your relationship.

If you are a man, work at providing them. If you are a woman, understand that unnecessary frustration is in store if your man doesn't recognize the importance of offering you with these five things.

1. A woman should feel appreciated. Now you might be surprised that I didn't begin with her desire for love. Most men will say, "I love you." But they may not appreciate their woman how she needs to be appreciated.

2. A woman should share a deep emotional bond with her man. Now what am I referring to? Women feel more secure when they see that their man is in touch with his feelings. They appreciate knowing that you have feelings and that you are not ashamed to share them.

3. A woman needs you to feel she is feminine and sexy. This makes obvious sense, but it is surprising how many men don't make much of an effort to convey their feelings about how they view their woman. Do you find her beautiful and lovely? Do you find her sexy? Then say so to her.

4. A woman should have a man who knows how to be romantic. What do I mean by romantic? Romance is a state of mind. It's finding the little things, like the way your girl's mouth moves when she's flirting with you or how much you appreciate her. But even more primary, it's taking the time and doing something about it. A romantic gesture from you is the true language of your woman's heart.

5. A woman needs a man who they can respect. One of the building blocks of any beneficial relationship is respect. If a woman stops trusting her man, it may end up killing their relationship. Though it can be difficult, if you really love your woman, you need to "be the man" and tell her plainly that you expect her to treat you with respect.

Three Problems To Avoid When Using Completely Free Dating Sites

Completely free dating sites -- are they worth it? The saying is there is no such thing as a free lunch -- so, what about dating sites? This article will examine what to look for if you decide to sign up with completely free dating sites. Specifically, we'll look at the pitfalls of choosing the wrong sites, as well as some good advice to follow before creating a profile at any completely free dating site. In the end you will be much wiser -- and spend your time better -- when using completely free dating sites.

What's the first thing you should consider before signing up with one of these dating services?

Security.

In other words, some of these sites are completely free dating sites because they cut corners and costs. If one of these sites is asking you for a lot of personal information than can make you a victim of identity theft -- and they don't have a decent privacy policy (or worse none at all) -- then don't sign up!

Also, you must beware of what I call the "siren song" dating sites. These are the completely free dating sites that bait you into signing up by showing you pictures of babes, goddesses, and very attractive females who just happen to live right in your area! What are the odds? Too good, actually. These are fake profiles created by either the hosts of the dating sites or other malicious individuals, and their sole purpose is to get you to sign up! Good luck trying to score a dating with these cyber babes though. This is a very common downfall of completely free dating sites.

Finally, the third major thing to be careful of when signing up with completely free dating sites is Spammers! The reason is simple -- some free dating sites are a little more lax on the rules (they can't afford to hire staff to police their site) so spammers blanket these sites with advertisements. You might log into your profile and see 5 or 6 responses and think you might actually get a date tonight. Only when you open them, you only find messages to buy pills, vitamins and other junk that spammers try to push on you.

With that said, there are still a few good completely free dating sites out there if you have the time to look. As one of my resources, I have compiled such a list. You should do the same if you want to really some good results from completely free dating sites.

In conclusion I have given you the three dark secrets to completely free dating sites. As long as you can avoid these, you will do find using free dating sites worth your time. If you'd rather not waste your time, then don't be a tightwad and sign up for a paying service. Either way, I wish you the best in finding your next hot date! And as always, when in doubt, seek for more information before you doing anything when it comes to meeting, attracting, and dating women on completely free dating sites.

5 Myths Preventing Men From Attracting Women.

Myth #1: Being an Attractive Man Is Always About Appealing To What Women Say They Want.

If you are one of those vehement supporters of this myth, you should get a noose and hang yourself - you'll be better off. Trying to get a woman to like you by attempting to live up to her ideal preferences in a man is a one way ticket to transforming your ego into a proverbial punching bag.

Women prefer tall dark handsome rich men, packing dogs with garden hose length and telephone pole girth.

Oh, furthermore, if you don't want to fall short of their expectations you better be lumbered with chiseled abs and a copious bubble butt. If your rump isn't up to par, you could always get silicon butt cheek implants.

But forewarning: Your black-and-blue rear will be so sore that you won't be able to sit down for a month.

As those of you know who have been reading my aticles and have read my book: Attraction is not what a woman says she wants. If attraction was what women say they prefer, then I wouldn't know short, bald, fat, and broke guys experiencing massive success with women.

But I do.

Attraction, contrary to this, is about you creating the emotion inside women of wanting, chasing, and reaching for more of you.

Although my short, bald, fat and broke Casanova buddies don't fill the quota of the "ideal man," they
do manage to generate the emotion inside women of wanting, chasing, and reaching for more of
them. And this, my friend, is why they are massively successful with women.

The art of creating this emotion in women is what I call PRIZING. My book is chockfull of different techniques for PRIZING women, some of which are Open Loops, Tension Loops, Challenging & Qualifying, and Meta-Frames.

One of the best things you can do to set the groundwork for PRIZING women is to make them strive to fill the quota of your ideal female. So, when you're out with a woman, don't behave like a spineless little worm, asking her questions such as: "How am I doing with you?"


Instead, when she behaves in ways that go against your standards and expectations of women, let her know that she is losing points with you - and losing points quickly!

Myth #2: If A Woman Is Of Higher Value Than You She Is Not Allowed To Be Attracted To You.

This one actually rings some truth. Let me explain. If you see a woman and immediately, in your mind, consecrate her as a Goddess amongst Goddesses you must bow down to, you are figuratively butt ramming yourself, because you are setting the frame that she is the Prize, not you.

As those of you who have read my book know, women do not feel attraction for men who are not the PRIZE.

Viewing a woman you have just met as a Goddess amongst Goddesses is fine, as long as you perceive yourself as a God amongst Gods and abstain from bowing down to her.

What is the lesson to be learned?

Objective value doesn't exist, only perceived value does. Although women are usually not attracted to men of lesser value than themselves, you can do a lot to increase your value.

Whenever interacting with a woman, a Meta-Frame - or underlying meaning - is established, determining your value in relation to hers. When you allow a woman's perceived value to intimidate you, or make you feel of lesser value than her, you are unknowingly establishing the Meta-Frame that
she is the PRIZE, not you.

So the key is to stop fretting about some aspect of her being of higher value than some aspect of you,
plundering you of your self-esteem. When interacting with a woman, if you ever feel ugly to her beauty or pedestrian to her sophistication or like a retarded little spaz to her sense of cool...or whatever, change your focus of attention.

See the bigger picture. Realize that when first meeting a woman you paint a picture in your mind of who you think she is, based on a few aspects you observe about her. This picture usually ends up being way off base.

Learn to take control of your perceptions:

If you feel intimidated by her beauty, imagine what she looks like in the morning without her makeup; if her sophistication renders you tongue-tied, consider that she might be putting on an act to impress you; if you start worrying about how much older you are than her, imagine how much worse she's going to look when she's your age...and so on.

Myth # 3: If You Want To Attract Women You Have To Act Like You Enjoy And Are Interested In The Things That They Enjoy.

This pathetic little myth is really a product of the collective dating advice for men self-help books for sale at a bookstore near you, touting men to develop the personality of an obedient lapdog.

This myth couldn't be further from the truth. Women are attracted to men, not little puppy dogs.

Hypothetically speaking, let's say you are dating a girl who has a thing for musical kitsch: think Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera.

You, however, despise this kind of music and would prefer the sound of nails on a chalkboard to this crap.

What should you do:

Pretend Britney's great or tell her what you really think?

Although counterintuitive, pretending to like something you don't genuinely like is unattractive to women.

Likewise, having a willingness to express what you hate can redound in women finding you very attractive.

Exceptions, of course, do exist. For example, specific activities have been deemed by our culture as having a high social value. You might, for example, prefer reading comic books over participating in these activities.

There could be consequences, however, to not participating in them. In one of my upcoming products, I touch on these activities. I will probably publish a newsletter in the near future addressing
these activities.

Furthermore, I am not suggesting that you jettison all of a woman's interests and tastes that you do not share. Doing this will turn you into a creepy control freak and you will probably end up becoming a very unhappy, boring person.

Only being around people with the same interests and tastes as you, will stifle your growth as a human being - diversity is good.

I personally love to be around people that introduce me to things I don't know a lot about. This is how I develop new interests and grow as a human being.

My gripe is with men faking an interest in something as a means to get someone to like them. Doing this is really handing your balls over on a platter to the other person.

Don't do this.

Don't give away your power. It is one of the most unattractive qualities you can possess.

Myth # 4: Women Don't Like Sex And Will Only Sleep With You After You Go Through Great Lengths Courting Them.

This one really makes my skin crawl. My life experience keeps reaffirming that beyond the shadow of a doubt this myth doesn't even contain a smattering of truth.

Women love sex and can be as aggressive as men when it come to obtaining it.

If you doubt this, make some female friends who are not interested in you. That way they won't be concerned with how you judge them, allowing them to shed their ladylike pretenses and talk candidly about their sexuality. Warning: This lurid peek into the female sexual psyche might frighten you - it isn't for the faint of heart.

What you will find is that women are as sexual as men...if not more.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if these women told you about how much fun quickies, one-night-stands,
and meaningless sex can be.

Many women hold off on sleeping with men because they lest being judged as sluts. It can be quite powerful to tease women about acting sexually forward or aggressive towards you.

Acting genuinely concerned, though, about a woman's sexually promiscuity can transform a sexually adventurous woman into a frigid prude.

Most men I know who are unbelievable at quickly getting women into bed have a knack for making
women feel comfortable expressing their sexual habits and promiscuity (Note: This is, of course, in the context of women you've just met. You probably wouldn't want to encourage this kind of promiscuity in your wife or girlfriend).

Myth # 5: If You Aren't Currently Good With Women You Probably Aren't Going To Get Any Better.

Simply not true.

I don't believe this myth for a second.

Over the years I have known many hopeless sad-sack losers who no one believed in, transform
themselves into some of the most skilled ladies men I have ever seen. In many cases these guys ended up more skilled with women than natural ladies men.

This is probably because they had a burning desire to get a foothold on this area of their life.

This self sabotaging myth is disseminated primarily by shrinks, guys who've had little success with women, and ladies men.

I know a few guys who were told by their psychiatrists that if they weren't good with women, they probably weren't going to get any better. And that they'd be better off compromising by settling for a less than desirable woman.

One of these guys stopped seeing his therapist and is now doing fantastic with women. He gets a gold star for firing the bastard.

Some guys down on their success with women will try to feed you all sorts of negative rhetoric, such as:

"if you are not already successful with women, you are not going to get any better."


These guys will infect your mind. Avoid them like the plague.

Some ladies men will try to mystify their abilities by making you think that they are blessed with some unattainable God-given talent. Often times this is an attempt to exalt their abilities at the expense of
your self-esteem. Don't take that crap. You're better than that.

All of the disseminators of this myth are thought viruses that will infect your mind, sabotaging your self-esteem and future opportunities with women. If you currently have any of these people in your life,
KICK 'EM TO THE CURB.

It is an understatement to say that I believe in you; I am convinced that you can succeed with women. I have met and taught men of all walks of life who have successfully turned their lives around with women.

No matter what your current level of success with women is, I know you strive to get to a higher level. Otherwise, you wouldn't be reading this. I know you are capable of achieving your goals with women and I am going to help you get there. And if you haven't already picked up a copy of my book,
do so. It's not written for losers looking to cope with their unfortunate situation. It's written for winners:

People who are ready to take the bull by the horns and start achieving and living the success they dream about. At the end of the day, $39.95 is a small price to pay to be fully equipped with the tools you need to start experiencing massive success with women. So if you haven't already picked up my book, do so now.

What You Need To Know Before You Get An Exclusive Relationship With A Woman

The longer you are in an exclusive relationship with a woman the worse off you are at being able to attract women if and when the two of you break up.

This isn't meant to discourage you from getting into a relationship with a woman; instead it is to let you know how important knowing how to attract women really is.

Part of maintaining a good relationship is to know how to keep the attraction levels high enough and the ability to be willing to end the relationship rather than do something you don't want.

If you already knew how to attract women before getting into the relationship even though your skills might get rusty.

Maintaining the attraction level and having the confidence in knowing that if you must end it you can and still attract women; allows you to take the steps you have to take in order to keep the relationship going strong or end it if necessary.

However, if you enter the relationship simply feeling lucky that you got her or no real idea how you attracted her.

You will not know how to maintain the attraction level and might not be willing to end it instead simply doing what she wants in the hopes that it somehow works out.

When the time comes for you to begin the process of finding another woman you are much more likely to continue trying to get the woman you already knew you were lucky to have in the first place.

Not only does this not work at attracting women it does more to push the woman you were lucky to have further away from you.

don't criticize or blame; suggest Instead. Ask and give permission to do so.


No Weapons (sarcasm, insolence, negative tones, abruptness)


Say what you mean and validate what you hear.


Don't play therapist - Coaching is different


Search for facts - no mind reading you ask for permission.


NO EXCUSES! - take responsibility for your part.


Say whatever you need to say once


Respect, hug, show affection, and use attachment skills and give genuine felt appreciation and praise.

TIME OUT! - use it if need be, but be responsible to initiate the engage after a disengage


Try using attachment skills to ease the discomfort. Remember, if you aren't giving t to your partner there may be someone out there that won't miss out on the opportunity.

LIMIT!!! - the frequency of fights. Allow time to reassure you that this isn't just an impulsive feeling. Don't resume the fight until the appointed time. Have fun and play during the reconnection.

5 Ways To Having Your Best Internet Profile Possible

You are finally biting the bullet and decide to try online dating. You have narrowed down one or two sites that your friends have recommended you try where they are having success meeting people. Now you have to write your internet profile. That's the hard part!

Or you have had your internet dating profile up for a while and have not seen much action lately. Perhaps it is time for you to reevaluate your profile and see if you can make improvements to attract more quality candidates to your internet profile. What if writing is not your forte? If you follow the five ideas outlined below, you will be putting your best foot forward and on your way to experiencing the excitement of internet dating or revitalizing your internet potential.

Today's dating tips for men and women are for those who want to have better success with internet dating. After checking out the format of the profile and how others are presenting themselves on that site, I encourage you to:

1. Present the most authentic you!
Show your potential dates the real you. If you put down stuff that you are not, you will attract the wrong people and eventually it will come out, causing big relationship issues down the line. For example, if you can't stand cats and say you like animals, then what will you do if your date has a cat? My philosophy is what you put out there is what you will attract. Just like an ad in a magazine - if a company advertises a car with a powerful engine, it will attract people who want that in a car.

So it is best to be honest and upfront with your profile. Describe what you need and want in a relationship. Don't be afraid to ask for what you want (as long as it is socially appropriate!). If you want marriage and a family – then put that down in your profile. You will attract those who want the same things as you, and turn away those who would be scared by that comment-that's a good thing!

2. Tell your audience what's unique about you!
A key relationship question is what sets you apart from the next guy or gal? What is special about you? Do you have any special talents? You want someone who appreciates that about you. If you have an artistic bent, or you sing in a chorus, describe that! If you run marathons or help out with volunteer activities, put that down. This will set you apart from all the other internet profiles out there and can help you in finding your Get It Right This Time™ partner.

3. Take your reader into your experiences with you!
I believe in bringing the reader into the experiences that you truly value. Not just superficially mention you like running through the park, but send out an invitation for them to join you. For instance, one of my clients described how he loves to jog in a city park in the fall when the air is crisp and the leaves are multi-tonal. Doesn't this description have a "come join me" feeling? Don't just mention that you like concerts and movies. Describe what kind of concerts you prefer and types of movies you love. Including this type of detail will help answer relationship questions for those looking at your profile.

4. Describe what's truly important to you!
What gets you up in the morning? What truly motivates you in life? One of my clients truly values giving of herself to the community. She is an avid volunteer. I'm sure she wants to attract someone who also values giving to the community as well. When you get beyond the superficial, you will attract those who say, "This person seems to be the kind of person I want to meet!"

5. Invest in hiring a professional for the all important photo!
We do live in a visual society and we do judge a book by a cover! Studies have shown that the photo is the key to whether a person decides to check out your profile or not. If you are not sure how you come across in the photo, then ask a friend or co-worker for their opinion. I request my clients to get a professional photo 95% of the time. Make sure the photo is a current one of you, within a year or two!

Some internet dating sites do provide you with a list of photographers in your area who specialize in internet dating photos. As an added bonus, you will have a photo of yourself to give to your family members come December as a holiday gift!

By following the ideas presented above by your relationship coach, I guarantee that you will see an improvement in the type of people who are contacting you, as well as the responses you are getting from those you are contacting.

I'm Almost Perfect But No One Wants Me! Why Not? Eight Tips For Meaningful Relationships

The search is exciting, but the catch is disappointing. Recognize that experience? When you interact with a potential partner your internal monitor searches for features that match items on your conscious checklist like appearance, status, and humor. But your unconscious is making a different search. It is looking for someone that resembles key figures in your life with whom you have unresolved issues. Guess which part of you makes the final choice. Yes, it is the unconscious. Your internal radar instantly matches some characteristics of a potential partner with a template you have inside. That pattern may have features that belonged to a parent, grandparent, sibling, teacher or anyone that has some special significance for you. That includes relationships with absent, deceased, unavailable or abusive relatives.

Andrew is an intelligent and sensitive man was the butt of his father’s frustration and yelling. It would literally kill off his spirit. He felt he could never please his parents. He was attracted to a girl who was lively, had similar interests and seemed open. Within a short while he found that she yelled and judged him as being in the wrong, just like his father. Her couldn’t please her and was scared of losing her.

Stephanie is terrified that she cannot make a man interested in her. She is constantly let down, disappointed and heartbroken when relationships break off after short times, when the men flirt with others, or move on with their lives, leaving her behind. Her deepest wish is to be the only person in the world for her partner, and acts in ways to demand that. When a boyfriend wants to do something without her she experiences it as a deep wound and unforgivable betrayal.

Both Andrew and Stephanie are viewing their partners through the lens of their personal needs and compulsion to get those needs acknowledged and attended to. Their relationships are therefore made on a corrupt basis, and are not likely to succeed. The same pattern of agony and ecstasy repeats in an unfulfilling cycle with future relationships.

What Do You Seek In A Partner That You Can’t Find?
* A universal accepting person who will take you on despite your imperfections
* A mirror image of yourself so you can feel complete
* Someone who can give you by default all the things you didn’t get as a child, and demand thereafter
* Someone who will fill the empty void that aches for constant reassurance
* A person who will demonstrate by choosing you and rejecting the world that you are important
* Someone who is ‘together’ and strong enough to handle life when it is too much for you
* An angel who knows how you feel without having to be told
* Someone who has enough room for you to hitch a life with, by becoming part of theirs

Maximizing Your Chances Of Creating a Successful Partnership
* Allow and respect your partner’s wishes and needs to do things separate from you. Let your partner breathe and your relationship will flourish.
* Begin to have a relationship with yourself that makes you a real person.- with opinions and preferences
*Accept your own values, passions, fears and weak points. The mix is what makes you interesting and unique. No one wants to date a perfect automaton who never messes up.
* Value what is unique about yourself and project that image.
* When you catch yourself trying to please and choking off your own desires, stop and ask yourself why you want to kill yourself off in order to be loved. If you are dead, who is going to be loved?
*Give yourself permission to ‘live’ and enjoy yourself. Waiting for another person to complete you is putting undue responsibility on a potential partner, and isn’t their job.
*When your buttons get pushed, ask yourself what prior experience it is triggering. Address the original event, not the trigger.
* Keep a good reservoir of energy, respect and love for yourself. If you give it all away in the hope that you will be taken care of in return, you are going to feel empty, angry and unlovable.
*Keep a reality check dialogue going with a partner about whether both of you feel seen and heard for what and who you really are.

Did You Know That You Can Make A Man Desire You So Much That He Craves You?

We women are very good at making ourselves desirable in the beginning of a relationship but really bad at keeping the attraction after the initial “oh-wow!” wears off and the man you’ve been dating for weeks or months starts to lose interest. How do you make sure that doesn’t happen with your new catch?

Before I get to that, let’s be clear on why most men lose interest in a woman after only a few dates. There are several different reasons for each man and woman (intellectual, emotional, financial, sexual, spiritual, social etc.) but it all comes down to ONE thing and that is, his PERCEPTION of what it’ll be like if he continued to date you.

So how to you make sure his perception of you continues to make him want to date you? How do you keep him interested in you? How do you make him want you more than any other woman? How do you make him stay faithful to you?

The most common advice out there is that to make him desire you more, don't call him or pretend to be busy or dangle sex in front of him but withhold it when he comes for it. The problem with this kind of advice is that you can’t create a relationship that is going to have enough depth by maneuvering people around their better judgment. There is eventually a negative backlash and you may find out that you’ve wasted so much time and energy on a man' who is not worth it or one who is simply not into you!

There is nothing wrong with “playing hard to get” if it means creating enough mystery and sexual tension that makes a man feel good about himself, his initial perception of you and his feelings about the future of the relationship.

Let me explain a little bit about "sexual tension" in this particular regard. The extremely distorted misconception in our society is that the “sexual” is only limited to sex and therefore the mention of “sexual tension” immediately conjures images of actions and behaviours immediately leading to sexual intercourse- bathing and applying fragrance, putting on your sexiest clothes, rubbing his feet or nibbling his ear, or giving him any other nonverbal signals that suggest that you want and are ready for sexual intercourse. These actions and behaviours may and can get you “sex” but they do not necessarily make a man sexually attracted to you.

Regardless of terminology and explanations, sexual attraction is distinct from, but always includes physical characteristics (physical state of the body and body-language fluency), mental characteristics (thought process, beliefs and attitudes), emotional characteristics (moods and attachment patterns), social characteristics (interpersonal skills and ability to get along) and spiritual characteristics (sense of self and connection to the a higher power). It is in that sense wholistic in nature and sometimes a complex situation.

Your man -- like most men -- was initially drawn to an intimate relationship with you (more than friends) because he perceived you to be sexually attractive. He may have liked “other” things about you but the sexual attraction provided that extra oomph that moved him to take the necessary steps to pursue you. Sexual attraction is a kind of a regenerating energy that makes men (and women) quiver with sensation and anticipation (pounding heart, butterflies in the stomach, sweating palms, weak knees, euphoria and so forth). Alone, it can not evolve into a lasting relationship but without it, the relationship lacks fire and passion to sustain the relationship in a fulfilling way.

If you want to keep your man interested in you and make him want you more than any other woman you must not only make sure that his initial perception of you remains but that it is confirmed again and again. Even better, make sure that it exceed his initial perception and keep making it better by the minute.

To be able to do that you have to be very clear on what his own very SEXUAL IMPRINT is. Each man is unique and has a particular combination of things (mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, social, etc. that make his inner clock tick. That is what you have to figure out and work with. No flirting skills or seduction techniques or even silly dating rules will work if you are missing what TRULY appeals to his very OWN SEXUAL IMPRINT.

Physically

The biggest mistake men and women make is assume that one size fits-all and all men are attracted to the SAME women’s features. I’ve seen women so pre-occupied with their busts: lifting them, thrusting them forward and pulling the neckline down and all the while the man she is with is checking out the woman in a mini-skirt standing over there and she's not even looking his direction. I've also met women who are really angry because they spent thousands of dollars trying lose weight and be more attractive to their guys only for them to find out that their men are cheating on them with women nowhere as skinny or the men leave the relationship to pursue the "not skinny" woman. Knowing what his natural inclinations are allows you to focus specifically on accentuating and emphasizing particular physical aspects for the greatest appeal.

Mentally

Mental stimulation has very little to do how high you score on an IQ test or how many academic degrees you have. It is possible for a man or woman to be fantastically “brainy” and not be someone you can have a stimulating “intellectual” conversation with. Another word for that is boring. To be intellectually attractive to your man you must not only become somewhat knowledgeable and be able to follow him with curiosity, interest, and intelligence into the world that he finds interesting and mentally stimulating but also capable of leading him into your own world in an interesting and stimulating way. This intellectual and mutual exchange of worlds ensures an easy and continual flow of mental attraction back and forth.

Emotionally

The field of emotional attraction is still relatively new and many of us in modern societies are just beginning to learn the healthiest ways of dealing with emotions. However, that doesn’t change the fact that our human psyche has been pre-programmed to be uniquely sensitive to the intensity, smoothness, regularity, and rhythm of human emotions, and whether we gain or lose energy from being around a particular person. It is not possible to scientifically measure how much energy we gain or lose from being around a particular person, but for whatever reason, some people are easy to be around and some aren’t. By taking time to really zero on the common “mood of life” that the two of you share, you are more likely to be able to make him feel that you are special and believe with great certainty that you bring enjoyment, excitement, arousal, intimacy, nurturance, or some reward related to personal expansion into his life.

Spiritually

This is probably the most neglected aspect of sexual attraction. Spirituality and sexuality are inseparable and meant to go together. When spirituality is ignored, sexuality is suppressed, unhealthy and perverted and when sexuality is denied, spirituality is misused, damaging and confining. But when spirituality and sexuality are nurtured as inseparable, we experience “heaven on earth. Integrating spirituality and sexuality into your sense of self makes you more relaxed - free spirited, open minded, present within the now moment, connected with your environment - a state which allows sexual energy to flow through your mind and body creating an intense “aura” of effortless sex appeal. You don't even have to learn any techniques on flirting or seduction because everything you do is so damn sexy without you even intending to make it sexy.

With a little more understanding of how SEXUAL IMPRINTS operate (there is more) and more practice using them, you can make a man desire and crave you so much that he’s stuck on you - after all you’re basically the only woman who has his “number” and can punch it anywhere anytime.

There is nothing you can do to make a man "love you", he has to come to that place on his own, but you can certainly make him feel good about his initial perception of you and what it’ll be like if he continued to date you. The more "positive" he feels, the faster he moves towards that place of "love".
