Dating, Romance, Love And Marriage - Meeting The Right Woman
So you are the knight in shining armor? The problem is, you don't have a princess to defend with. Let me share you something that is sitting right there, under your nose: "Women are everywhere and the right woman is one you can see strolling at the mall, bookstore, coffee bar, internet dating sites, work, clubs, etc." Now that you know that you realize that you don't to be somewhere special to meet the right women, the next thing your should learn is the art of the actually meeting her.
Here are the ways:
First, show confidence! You may not be aware of this but women are shyer then you are. Most women, especially those who are looking for the right man, love to be approached as well. So better get on your knees, approach someone and initiate a good conversation. Easier said that done right? One word my friend: "confidence!" Shaking knees and a mumbling mouth are things you should never have. Opportunity knocks only once so better grab it. If you see someone you like, approach her. With a right timing and proper approach, you will end up seating with her at a coffee bar all the way to a dinner table. Also, women love to see men who bear confidence. While this may not be an overnight success, you can always have your confidence developed. As they say, "right practice makes perfect", so practice, practice, and practice more. Start at your office and talk to women colleagues. Then initiate a conversation with the waitress at a restaurant or the cashier at the grocery. As you build confidence through casual conversations with people, you let go your shaking knees and mumbling mouth.
Second, master the art of conversation. Now that you have finally had the guts to approach women, you should know how to initiate a conversation. Your first words will really make the difference between a "yes" to a dinner or a something like this: "Hi, what's your name" and she replies "Hi, I'm leaving". Pick up lines like, "Gee, that's a nice set of legs, what time do they open?" or "Am I dead, Angel? Cause this must be heaven!" are something that will definitely end a conversation that hasn't begun at all. Make good at this by being sincere, being spontaneous, and not sounding so desperate. Again, it takes practice so if your first approach to a woman at the mall is not successful, do not stop trying. A good sense of humor is always a winner to good women so have them on your reserve and take them out when necessary.
An approach and conversation is not enough. You still need the follow up. So the third thing you should do is to know how to keep a woman wanting. A first date can only have a take two if the woman finds that you are interesting so keep her guessing. Do not tell everything about yourself during the first date. Not only you will dominate the whole conversation and piss your date off, you will also have nothing to say on your second date if ever it will happen. Keep her wanting like the "Arabian Nights".
Most men think that pampering their lady will keep her wanting him. The fact is, it is entirely the exact opposite. Did you ever wonder why many women love "bad boys"? It is because "bad boys" give no regard with women in the way they treat them. Women who are often pampered by men feel that they have the need to get everything they want so they are on a hot pursuit to "bad boys" who keep on playing hard to get.
Finally, meeting the right men does not end up on having the right confidence, knowing the proper way approach, and keeping women wanting because a meeting the right women may not end on a single try. You may have dated a woman and have successfully done all these 3 but still, she does not fit to the definition of "the one" for you. Meeting the right woman is a never-ending process until you are finally convinced that she is "the one".

5 Mistakes Women Make With Men
For some women, sustaining a worthwhile relationship with a man is almost like trying to win the lottery. They have no trouble talking to men or even dating them, but for whatever reason they can not build enough attraction from their partners to keep them coming back for more. Here are some mistakes women make that can send a man running in the opposite direction.
Too Much Information
While it is important to get to know the person you are dating, some women simply don’t leave enough to the imagination. If you find yourself talking about family problems and old boyfriends on your first few dates, then chances are that you are guilty of revealing too much. The initial period of dating should be absolute bliss for both sides, and not dragged down by skeletons in the closet.
Not Enough Listening
It can be refreshing to meet new people and have the opportunity to share your opinions and dreams, just remember that your new man is also excited to the same. Taking control of the conversation or forcing your ideals on someone is not romantic. Make sure you provide adequate openings in your dialogue for responses. A simple way to make sure you are not taking over the spotlight is to ask your date questions. This will give them a chance to share their feelings without interrupting you.
Dishonesty
Some women become so self-conscious about themselves that they stretch the truth about everything from finances to outside interests. They want so badly to attract a good man that they believe saying what he wants to hear is the easiest route to take. Of course this strategy may work for the first few dates, but ultimately the truth will come out and you will be exposed. Being honest keeps your conscience clear and will help you meet someone with the same interests as you.
High Expectations
It is natural to be excited about the prospect of new love, but you have to be careful not to let expectations spoil the fun. Guys don’t want to hear about your plans for marriage and family life early in a relationship. You have to attract them with your personality and charm before they will even consider a second date. The bottom line is to let things progress naturally. Not only can expectations eliminate a perfectly suitable candidate, but they take the spontaneity out of romance.
Controlling Yourself
The big secret to making a man want you is creating a curiosity or mystery about yourself. You want him to fantasize about you and wonder which direction your romance will take him. For this reason you need to lead him along slowly. Control your passions and keep him coming back for more. Be patient to see if he will wait for you. If he does then you know you have the beginning of a strong attraction.
There is good reason why some women consistently falter with men while others seem to catch them like fish. It is all about presentation and focusing on the natural male desires. This means making him feel good about himself and keeping him guessing on what your next move will be. Avoiding mistakes like talking too much and creating ridiculous expectations will give you the opportunity to set this strategy in motion.

Women In Love And Relationships – How To Let Go
When you love someone and the relationship has to end in any reason that hurt you both, it has to end right at that moment and you have to accept it and let go. You don't have to ask questions why it happened; you don't have to look for answers because you will see none. Things could get ugly if you insist looking for it. Don't try to change the course of fate, if it's meant to end then it has to end and let go.
Respect whatever he thinks about you, no need to talk or settle things with him, it only makes you so cheap and get hurt more. Parting ways is painful but you have to take it. Don't try to end it well if there's no future to end it well. Just take the situation as it is and let go. You cannot patch the holes and loopholes that happened to both of you. There will always be grudges, blaming and comparison with each other. It's the way it is; its how letting go is. There could never be a nicer way to do it, but to let go and accept it. If you are a person who wants to end everything in a nice way, this is not the time, only time could tell if all wounds have healed, things will fall in their right places at the right time. As the old adage goes "Time will heal all wounds" as old as it is, it is still true even to this time.
Another thing about ending a relationship, there should be no regrets for what has happened, accept it and try to let go and free your self. No matter what you did even if it brought you pains, there should be no regrets because after all you have loved the person. Be glad if you were given a chance to say it and be able to free your self. Yes, letting go is painful but it gives a sense of freedom, knowing you've said it “no regrets" and you've been true to yourself regardless of what happened and what he feels for you. He may have regrets and hate you but you have to respect that, it is his right.
When it comes to relationships, it doesn't matter who is right or who is wrong. Yes, you will go through the process of fighting for your rights because you think you are right but at the end it really doesn't matter. Relationship lasts because it's meant to last, it will end if it's not meant to last and you have to let go.
Don't do stupid things, you cannot win him back. You cannot get his sympathy. If he doesn't feel for you, no matter how hard you try he will not care. Don’t compromise who you really are regardless of the situation and the pain you are into. Sometimes pain can push you to do something which is not within your values, try hard to keep your sanity and learn to let go. Nothing good will come out of it that’s why its’ called stupid. Yes, he hurt you in every possible situation, but it’s not enough reason to trade for who you really are. You have to get a good grip of who you are and your values, because I tell you in this stage you will need every good traits you have if you are dealing with so much pain. If you don’t let go, pains could deceive you and could push you to do things you are not suppose to do. Always think that if you let go and succeed to endure the pains, you will come out a better person and looking back you know you haven’t done anything bad to anybody. That’s why it’s good to end the relationship at once if it needs to end and don’t cling on it, you have to let it go.
When it comes to cheating, try not to blame yourself and learn to let go. You want answers why you've been cheated because you have this insecurity of being replaced, but the truth is, there is no answer. Even in the best of relationships "forever" is rare. When you accept to love someone you have to accept too that you will get hurt. It's not your fault that he cheated you, cheating is a human nature especially with males who cannot take a good grip of their faithfulness when faced with lust. But men with a good grip of their character and values will find themselves shy away from it because their love for someone is greater than their lust and that's what separate boys from men. Boys’ cheats but men don't. You can be 45 but still a boy and you can be 18 but can be called a man. Character and not age makes a man.
In getting hurt, women usually think, they are the ones who are always greatly hurt in most of the relationships they have. I often wonder how men appear so cold and make it looks like everything is easy even with heartaches, but I guess men and women always have different ways of dealing with heartaches. But hurt or pains has nothing to do with gender, its about love, those who love the most, cry the most and get hurt the most. Don’t be sorry that you cry the most or get hurt the most, be glad that that you were able to give most of the love in your relationship. If you love someone accept that you will get hurt too. And when it’s time to let go, just accept it and be glad that you have loved with all your heart.
Lovers to friends - don't put too much effort in it. It rarely happens; it's one in a million. If yours is that one in a million, it will still not happen right away, it needs time. If lovers have a good foundation of friendship before they became lovers and the friendship becomes cloudy because of too much hurt and unusual happenings, after the rain and the clouds are all clear, the sun will shine and if there is really a solid friendship, maybe it could happen-lovers to friends, but don't count on it as I said it rarely happens.
When it’s time to let go, give yourself time to heal, cry if you need to, and grieve if you have to. It’s the process of healing, but don’t stop there, get a life it’s not the end of the world. Yes life is tough, but you have to embrace it, live it because it’s your life. It may not be a beautiful life but you have to own it, it’s yours and you can make it beautiful. Besides, God will not give you things you cannot handle, if He has faith in you that you can handle the life handed to you, you have to have some faith in yourself too that you can get through tough times. Let go, set him free, set your self free and move on. If he is really meant for you, time will tell and your paths will meet again.

3 Fool-Proof Ways To Fixing Relationship
Many people, both young and old today are in relationships. And of course, having couple squabbles are part and parcel of being in one. So, being able to manage them effectively will help to develop the relationship and bring both partners closer together. Conversely, tiffs that escalate into big quarrels may risk having the couple breaking up. So, if your relationship is on the rocks, you need to know how to fix a relationship. The way you manage your relationship and its problems indicate to your partner how capable you are in handling matters, so it is important that you know these techniques by heart!
Giving enough personal time and space in the relationship
You should always allow for some healthy distance apart and alone time away from each other. This is critical to developing a healthy relationship with your partner as alone time is necessary to allow you to think about yourself, your goals in life and your future together. This applies to your partner as well. You’ll need to leave sufficient room in your schedule to fit in the other important things in your life, such as your hobbies and friends. So, when you are having troubles in your relationship, understand that you should avoid rushing things and pushing your other half to get what you want. Instead, take a step back and give space for him or her to think about and access what he or she wants. Then plan together as a couple how you can mend the relationship.
Moving on with your life
If your relationship has taken a turn for the worst, the best thing you can do next is to live your life in a better way that it previously was. For instance, if your ex had controlled the way your dress or what you ate, just be who you are and release your inner self now. Wear what you like and eat the food that you crave and be happy. Live life the way you want and show him or her how happy you can be. By doing so, you will be able to let your ex know and better understand the person she or he had fallen in love with. After all, not living life the way you want could be one of the reasons why there was a strain in your relationship in the first place. So, putting up an assertive front enables you to prove to your ex that you are strong and emotionally stable. Such a quality is very attractive, and will cause your partner seriously think twice before letting you go.
Making an effort to improve the relationship
If you do feel that there are strong feelings between you and your partner, then you should definitely invest substantial time and energy to make the relationship work. Develop ways in which you and your partner can better improve the situation. It takes two hands to clap, so you need to communicate and have honest conversations with your partner. Do not rush into agreeing to everything just so that you can get back together. Instead, just be your true. Try your best to forgive each other and to accept each others’ flaws.
There are many ways in which you can get back together with your ex. These 3 fool proof ways are effective techniques that you can use to fix yours, so use them well!

The Essense of Love
Love is subject that has many different meanings. One may say that love is respect, where another may say that it is trust. Then, of course, there are many people who would stand by the fact that love means both respect and trust, along with many other things. Love is both a burden and a blessing. It is both wonderful and terrifying. It makes sense, and can be confusing.
Before we go on to examine why it is important to experience love from others, it is important to realise that all of us have different perceptions of love as mentioned above. Some people are so caught up in their own minds that they do not even realise when someone really loves and appreciate them. It is important to keep your eyes open and being emphatic.
Harry Harlow, in the 1950s, concluded that people need some form of caring or love from others around them to have a stable and balanced life. He concluded this after conducting a series of psychological experiments and studying the effects of relationships on people.
In addition to this, Abraham Maslow, who worked closely with Harry Harlow was able to establish that all people, regardless of age, sex, location, and origin had a basic set of needs. This theory becomes widely known as "Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs".
Maslow argued that all humans need social interaction. Once all the basic needs of life have been met, people look to form alliances in the form of family, friends and intimate relationships.
Love allows us to feel as if we "belong" - that we have a special place in not only the world as a whole, but in the world of another and our own world. When we love, and that love is returned, we experience a sense of acceptance. Those that fail to experience love firsthand may suffer through many different negative consequences.
Those that do not love, feel that they are not loved, and lack a sense of "belonging" to the people in their lives can experience any of the following symptoms and/or emotions:
1. Many may feel extremely lonely. This may just affect one area of life, or several areas. It is possible to feel loved at home, and not feel this emotion among others.
2. Social anxiety as a result of not feeling accepted.
3. The collective result may result in depression.
4. In severe cases, many individuals who fail to feel as if they are loved may experience suicidal thoughts, or may actually attempt this act. Unfortunately, many have actually succeeded.
As you can see, feeling loved, and actually loving someone else in return is a very important element when it comes to feeling good about who we are and the lives that we lead. What is love? Love is when you can feel good without harming another or yourself. It is about a two way street that involves trust and respect. It is about identifying the best in others, as well as ourselves.

Learn How To Make Your Relationship Better
Making your love life better is a definite way to make you and your partner live a better life. Love making may appear like a distant memory that occurred for some when they were young teenagers full of unconvinced sexual liveliness. Now that you have finally grown up, have a successful career, and barely enough time for yourself people completely forget the importance of their love life. Most couples start to feel too old and think they can’t make passionate love anymore and just tend to live their life in misery instead of trying different ways to make their love life better.
Tip #1: Shock Your Partner. If your significant other is washing the dishes or just watching tv, slowly go behind him/her and message their shoulders. They will quickly forget about anything they are doing and focus all their attention completely on you. No matter what is going on, this stimulation will shift their focus no matter what.
Tip #2: Set the Scene. Make a music CD with you and your partner’s absolute favorite love making songs on it. Buy lots of fruit and light many candles. Set the scene and set the night. Your love relationship will definitely grow.
Tip #3: Respect Each Other. It is hard to make passionate love to someone that you don’t find attractive or always put down. You need to give your partner comments on a daily basis such as you look good or you are losing weight. Giving positive reinforcement will better your sex life and help your relationship tremendously. If you’re a guy and your wife worked hours fixing her hair, please NOTICE IT. Please let her know her hair looks amazing. After all she fixed it for YOU!
Tip #4: Have Sex at the Appropriate Times. You can tell right away if your partner is in the mood or not by their actions. The worst thing you can do is try to force your partner or egg them on to have sex. If they don’t want to there is no point in pushing and pushing for it. If you do have sex after the other doesn’t want it, please expect to have terrible sex.
Using these 4 tips will definitely better your sex life and love life. You will be in love more than you could ever possibly be in love. It will feel like you just met your partner and are on your first date. Using the right tips will give you a giddy feeling all over again and you will experience feelings and different sides that you have never ever felt before in your relationship. Finding new ways to please each other will grow your relationship to new heights and new levels. A love game seems to work well to increase your love life also. Using sex toys and love games will take your relationship to new heights and the 4 tips listed in the above article. I wish you the best of luck and I hope this article will help you with your love life!

I decided to comment on the issue above, that you believe anything and if shall come to pass. I am not a prophet of sort but recents events has consolidated my beleive so.
I marked my birthday and by God's grace my wedding annivarsary together yesterday and you can not imagine the calls and gift received altogether. I recieved presents from my oldies, if you know what i mean. Tey all call and sent presents to their "very good friend of lod", even those that delt with me and called me all sorts of name just because i preached true love in all my dealings with all friends including all my exes.

Is This Even Possible?
I’ve read a number of articles on how a woman should go about keeping her man happy. Some of these “expert tips” include being spontaneous, adventurous, hang on his every word, talking dirty, dressing sexy vada, yada, yada.
I’m assuming for the moment that we are talking about actual full grown adult men here and not some pubescent teenager, right? Articles that suggest you show your man respect and pay attention and value what he has to say, are really quite ridiculous and have been generated for no other reason than to try and push a website or product as weak as their articles are.
You can’t define what a woman should do to keep her man happy for two very simple reasons.
First, all men are different. I know we try and pigeon hole the entire gender, but the fact is, men are as complicated a creature as we ladies are and every man responds to different stimuli.
For example, some men have massive amounts of testosterone coursing through their veins and would respond favorably to an aggressive woman in the bedroom, wearing daring unmentionables and talking dirty. To others, this would be a complete turn off.
Second, men instinctually know when a woman is not being sincere. There’s a reason why you have been drawn to an article on how to make your man happy. Chances are good you are very close to losing him or feel he has lost interest in you.
No “expert” can tell you what all men need. The truth of the matter is, your guy is with you for a reason, something originally attracted him to you. It’s time to take a look at yourself in the mirror and see if you are the same person he fell in love with. Go ahead, take a good long look.
I think that if you are being completely honest and objective, you’re probably not as happy with yourself as you used to be either. We all age, gain weight, grow complacent and lazy. We have families and careers that sap our energy and the easiest thing in your life to neglect unfortunately, is that which you’ve grown comfortable with, your relationship with your man.
If there is one thing the majority of men do not like, it’s slipping down your ever fluctuating scale of what’s important and what can be attended to later.
Most couples meet when they either have no children or their children are older and self sustaining. A whirlwind romance often runs completely out of energy after marriage, children, bills, soccer, cub scouts, bake sales, homework, laundry, cooking dinner, cleaning and on and on the list of daily chores and responsibilities go.
The energy you once focused on the singular him, has now got to be divided between a thousand other things. Just as a plant withers and dies in the shade, so does your relationship.
And you cannot start feigning interest, dressing sexy, talking dirty, and being spontaneous and so on if it is not something you are currently doing. You will only confuse the poor man and make matters worse.
What actually may work is to try and schedule at least an hour of uninterrupted alone time and have a serious conversation with him. See if it’s to late to even mend your broken relationship. He may not want to, but if he does show any sign of life at all, you need to explain, with all of your heart, how sorry you are that you have neglected his needs and his feelings, because YOU HAVE!
And so has he of course, but someone must raise the white flag first, so why not let it be you?
There’s noting wrong with admitting that life has gotten in the way of love and that you want more than anything to make things work and try to recapture some of the fire the two of you once shared. The blame game absolutely does not work, don’t even try it. Just extend the olive branch, and if there is any love left in the man, he will return the gesture.
Build from there and promise each other that while you tackle the mundane aspects of your life, you will think about each other and remember what once was, and what could be again some day.

Managing Online Relationships (Dating)
Online dating sites are hoping that people will be able to find the love of a lifetime within the membership files on their site. The online dating scene is regulated by information that is provided by the dater and on many occasions, people will join these sites and not provide correct information. Some online dating sites have strict rules about membership and will check up on information included in a profile and make a record of the person's internet protocol address.
Many reputable online dating sites honestly want people to be happy while on the site and in the relationships that are formed. The date site administrators will do everything in their power to display photographs of people that are of the highest quality. Some online dating relationships have gotten a false start because old photographs were used, and when these couples meet for a brief introduction one of them is assured of not being amused by the deceptive actions taken by the other.
The online dating site administrators will edit profiles that violate policies because every dater deserves the same competitive edge of finding a suitable mate and should not be taken advantage of by other users. Online dating relationships can be more emotional for some because the road to finding true love has been met with one disappointment after another. Online dating relationships become solid when profiles match and one makes initial contact or both people get involved in the online dating process.
People have a chance to show their good side through the information filled in on their profile. Some mates need a person in their life with a sense of humor but they also want to meet someone that is able to take life seriously. After initial contact is made, people are able to take their time figuring out if the information was accurate and if that person is really sincere about forming a relationship. Some people join online dating sites simply for the opportunity of forming long lasting friendships.
More and more people are filling out profiles and waiting for that initial contact. Some will spend hours scanning through photographs without taking the time to see what the person said about himself or herself. Those people value looks above all and for some relationships, this is enough. Those that put their heart and soul on a few lines though are the ones that put value in finding a relationship that works. For some, the fantasy of being single again is as far as a relationship can go.
Online dating sites allow people to disconnect from the emotional side of dating for a bit by giving the opportunity to specify just the height and weight of the person that they are searching for. The dating site search engines will present a wide range of men and women who fit the requirements and the person will then have to make a choice on whether to make that first contact or wait a while to see what other possible relationships sign up and join the membership profiles.

Going Through Relationship Problems With Positive Thinking
Even the best relationships encounter problems from time to time; it's just the way it is. As individuals, we all have our own way of doing things and our own way of seeing the world and, even if you have a lot in common with someone, there are always going to be times where your views or the way you do things clash.
The way you deal with these problems and disagreements will determine how successful your relationships are as well as how long they'll last. Dealing with problems in a positive way will help you develop and maintain relationship and you can do this with the help of relationship affirmations.
What Relationship Affirmations Can Do For You
You may be wondering what the heck relationship affirmations are, and if so, you aren't alone. Relationship affirmations are simple statements that you can repeat to yourself that summarize the way you would like to think, feel, or behave in certain situations. For instance, instead of thinking, "This problem may be the end of our relationship," you could have a positive affirmations such as, "Relationship conflicts are not the end but an opportunity to grow. We can survive anything because our foundation is rock solid."
This may initially sound silly to you, but what it is doing is taking negative thoughts and replacing them with positive ones. When you have a more positive outlook, problems will be much easier to diffuse and your relationship will strengthen.
Relationship affirmations will help you change the way that you think about those little arguments. Many of us think about problems in our relationship as a sign that it will end, but a good way to look at it is that a problem is a way to grow together, to learn more about the other, and actually forge a tighter bond. No one likes to argue or fight and if you approach conflict in a positive manner it doesn't need to get to that point. You can deal with the problem in a positive way and allow the situation to pass as soon as it came about. Relationship affirmations can teach you the power of positive thinking and help you work with your spouse or family members.
In addition, relationship affirmations will allow you to be the cool-headed person. Perhaps it is your usual style to lash out or get angry when problems arise. When you replace your negative thoughts with free positive affirmations you'll bring a whole new feeling and dialog to the relationship. While the other person may get heated you can stay calm because you remember that problems are just a stepping stone to a stronger, more fulfilling relationship.
Relationship affirmations will teach you how you can avoid sweating the small stuff. In relationships we all have a tendency to overreact about certain things. When you use free positive affirmations you'll find that they help keep you in check. Before you overreact or get angry you can use your affirmations to remind yourself that a positive approach works better. This will immediately diffuse the situation and you'll find that both of you are a whole lot less stressed. Not sweating the small stuff in your relationship will make both of you happy, healthier people.

Discovering Love’s Secret Hideaway
The poets and philosophers have waxed on about the sublimity and ecstasy of love for centuries. Unfortunately many cry out "Oh love, sweet love why do you forsake me." Others who may actually experience some love in their relationships look at the state of world affairs and conclude that life on earth is for the most part a loveless affair.
The song "Isn't Life Strange" by the Moody Blues captures the beauty and heartbreak of love and life. The following verse is about heartache and hope. "Isn't love strange? A word we arrange. With no thought or care. Maker of despair. Each breath that we breathe. With love we must weave. To make us as one."
In the last verse of the song they sing "Isn't life strange. A turn of the page. A book without light. Unless with love we write. To throw it away. To lose just a day. The quicksand of time. You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry."
Those are words of regret, despair and hope--yes hope--despite the fact that we are throwing our love away. We are sinking in the quicksand of disharmony and hate. Why is this tragedy occurring in the lives of so many? Where has the love gone? And is it possible to rediscover it?
Why love is performing a vanishing act
An individual's sense of life determines whether he experiences a life of love and harmony. We are all human so even a person with a sense of life that corresponds to reality can suffer through short periods of disharmony and despair. However, the more an individual's thoughts, feelings and actions correspond to reality--the greater love and harmony that person experiences.
There are basically 3 philosophies of life. They are:
1. Altruism(Selflessness)2. Irrational Selfishness3. Rational Selfishness (Rational Self-Interest)
Most people's sense of life is a haphazard combination of the above, although a person usually has one that he favors and practices in the important areas of his life. Let's discover which philosophy of life contains love's secret hideaway.
Altruism
Tragically the majority of people believe that altruism is a loving philosophy of giving and sharing. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Webster's definition of altruism is: selfless regard for the well-being of others. A rationally selfish individual can discover the main flaw of altruism in its definition. Altruism is a philosophy of selflessness--the sacrifice of the individual.
How is it possible that an individual who has repudiated the self has anything worthwhile to offer? A philosophy that sacrifices individuals for "the good of society" certainly isn't a loving philosophy. Our system of big government interventionism is based on the anti-life philosophy of altruism. And what has this predatory system created? War, economic crisis, poverty, mass liberty violations, group warfare etc. Need I go on?
It is certain that love can't grow from the muck of a cannibalistic system of selflessness and self-sacrifice. Altruism destroys. It destroys values--the values that are beautiful and sublime. All that remains is the blight of destruction. It hardens people's hearts--shrinks their minds and burns out their spirit. They only thing they are left with is an irrational hatred for anything that is good and just. And sadly, they don't even know why.
Irrational Selfishness
Individuals have their needs, desires and fantasies. Happiness depends on knowing what these are and satisfying them. Unfortunately, many want to possess them without giving anything in return. They have no desire to trade value for value--if there is an easier way to obtain what they want. They are irrationally selfish.
Another tragic aspect of our system of big government interventionism is that it fosters a something for nothing mentality. Why trade value for value when you can join a pressure group and live at the expense of others. Our democratic system has devolved into group warfare--every group and its members living at the expense of an opposition group. Political pull determines whether their needs and desires are satisfied. In the end the smallest minority of all, the individual, is rendered defenseless. Love can't survive this kind of warfare.
Many have the same attitude in their personal relationships. For example in a sexual relationship it's quite common for a man to desire to get off without concern for whether his lady receives pleasure or not. On the other hand some women place sex low on their value scale and seem unconcerned that her man might be suffering from extreme frustration.
Love doesn't survive under just any condition. Even when individuals are attempting to trade value for value love might flee the scene because of certain incompatibilities between the parties involved. Sometimes negative outside influences cause love to vacate the premises. An attitude of irrational selfishness guarantees that love retreats to its secret hideaway.
An individual who believes in the power of reason--connects with his intuitive powers--and practices rational self-interest--may occasionally indulge in irrational selfishness. None of us is perfect. However, when a person makes irrational selfishness a way of life he is doomed to an unfulfilling, loveless life.
Rational Selfishness
The rationally selfish individual desires to interact with his fellow humans by trading value for value. He prefers what Stephen Covey calls a "win-win" relationship. He respects the natural rights of others. He treats them as individuals he can trade value for value with. He respects an individual's life, liberty and property. He knows that love doesn't just refer to loving others--it also means loving your highest values and beliefs.
Selfishness is equated with taking advantage of your fellow man or woman. Some people consider "money the root of all evil." Altruists take things out of context. The actual saying is "the love of money is the root of all evil." although the cliché' in its entirety is still open to critical examination. If altruists were logical they would clarify what type of selfishness they were talking about. Of course if they overtly indulged in logical reasoning they would lose the "privilege" of victimizing innocent people.Rational selfishness is a value for value, win-win philosophy. An individual living for his own sake acquires high self-esteem and self-worth along the way. He possesses self-love and he loves life. He holds the key to love's secret hideaway in his heart, mind and spirit. Love may occasionally slip away and become elusive in its hideaway--but the rationally selfish individual

Overcoming Your Enemies Easily
We all think the enemy is somewhere out there, that some person, force or nation is out to harm us in some way. Rather than live a life focused upon what they want, many people’s lives center on protecting themselves from their enemies, devising strategies to beat them. However, enemies consume time, attention, resources, well-being and happiness in life itself. And the odd thing about enemies is that even when we defeat one, ten more seem to immediately appear. Even when they think they are winning over their enemies, they are losing a life of freedom, health and good will.
How To Get Rid Of Enemies Easily
The smartest, simplest and easiest way to get rid of your enemy is to turn him/her into a friend. It actually takes only a moment to do this. Stop for a moment and ask yourself, who decided this person or situation is my enemy? You did. Now you can turn that decision around and decide the person is a friend. You can decide to become a friend to that person, (or to that situation or condition), to stop fighting and respond with kindness and care. You can choose to see other aspects of that person, which are not in opposition to you. Once you step out of the dance they are doing, how can they hurt you?
The True Enemy In Your Life
The next step would be to take a deep breath and realize where the true enemy is hiding. What exactly is it that is keeping you in constant turmoil? This is the moment to realize that your true enemy is within. It is your very own hatred, anger, fear and upset. The true enemy is the propensity we have for projecting our anger and fear outside into the world, for pinning it on people and situations and then battling with them. It is extremely disempowering to project your darkness upon someone else. It gives the other person power over you. Until we stop this, more and more enemies will keep appearing. Ultimately, they are the creations of our own mind and heart.
Below are some steps to take, to live a life free of enemies. Try them and see how easy and enjoyable they really are.
Step 1: Make Friends With Your Enemy
Allow yourself a moment of willingness to consider the possibility that your enemy wants the same things in life and is, most likely, just as afraid of you as you are of them.
A) Say to yourself - "Like me, my enemy wants to be happy and safe. Like me, me, my enemies have suffered and want to be free of pain. Like me, my enemy is lonely. Like me, my enemies will one day face loss and death."
Step 2: Who Is Your Enemy?
A) Make a list of those people (or situations) you feel are your enemies.(You may be astonished to note that even those you love are fearful to you).B) Write down three valuable qualities this enemy has.C) Write down three ways you have gained from knowing them.D) Write down what is needed for you to see them as a friend.
Step 3: Reclaiming Your Power
A) Upon whom have you projected most negativity?B) What about this person is so unacceptable?C) Can you see these qualities in yourself as well?D) For just a moment, can you accept these qualities in yourself? (This doesn't mean act upon them, just accept them for what they are now).
Step 4: Turn It Around
A) Offer your enemy the gift of respect.B) Offer your enemy the gift of really listening and knowing them.C) Stop judging your enemy. Let them be who they are.D) Give your enemy what they want and need. Just one time.E) Do it again now.F) Notice how wonderful it feels.G) Take time to notice how it feels to live in a world of friends?

Signs That She Still Care
Are you having trouble getting your ex off of your mind? She may be still thinking about you, too, day and night. Often when a relationship has ended, one or both parties wish it hadn’t. And yet, it can be hard to tell for sure whether she would like to make another go of it.
Here are 7 signs that she is still interested.
Sign #1: She calls you often just to say hi: If your ex were truly over you, she would probably not be calling you very often. Frequent phone calls are a sign that she may be still pining over you.
Sign #2: She has trouble talking with you without getting emotional: On the other hand, some women who still want to be with their exes get choked up or feel anxious whenever they think about them. In those cases, the woman will usually avoid calling her ex at all for fear of revealing her true feelings - especially if she is not sure whether he feels the same way.
Sign #3: She is dating someone who looks like you: Yes, this actually does happen: some women will chose a new guy to date who looks strikingly like their ex. While this is likely an unconscious phenomenon, it can be a telltale sign that she still carries a torch for her previous guy.
Sign #4: She jumped right into a new relationship after your breakup: Almost anybody who starts a relationship immediately after a breakup is not in the new relationship for the long haul. Rather, they are likely biding time while they try to heal their heart or have the chance to get back together with their ex.
Sign #5: She still hangs out at your old favorite spots: If you or your friends have been spotting your ex at your old hangouts lately, this could be an indication that she is still thinking about the times you used to share together.
Sign #6: She tends to compliment you when you speak with her: Compliments are indirect ways of saying what cannot always be said with words. If your ex tends to throw compliments your direction whenever you speak or says how great you are, she is almost surely still harboring feelings for you.
Sign #7: She often brings up things you used to do together: If your friends tell you that she still talks about you or brings up things you used to do as a couple, she is tipping her hand that she still spends a lot of her mental life devoted to your memory.
Once you are fairly sure that she still wants to be with you, it is time to take action. As the old saying goes, you need to strike while the iron is hot. She may be thinking about you during the day and dreaming about you at night: but you will never know for sure if you do not start doing something about it right now. Now that you know the signs to look for, it is time to put together a step-by-step plan for getting her back.

Loving Ourselves Antidote To Transforming Our Relationship
Loving Ourselves Antidote To Transforming Our Relationship
How can we transform our relationships--making them closer, more intimate, more creative, and more satisfying?
I've seen that happen in my own life. And the change came, not from working on the relationships, but from loving myself.
What's made the difference: love for myself, comfort with who I am, the feeling of being on my own path, and knowing what I feel and what I want.
When I love myself, I still enjoy and want love from the other person, but I don't feel desperate for it, like I'd disappear if I didn't get it. I don't feel like I'd do anything; even try to be someone I'm not, just to be loved.
When I feel comfort with who I am, I can feel right away if I'm still comfortable when I'm with this other person. I can judge a potential partner not by looks or achievements, but by whether I feel even more myself when I am with him.
When I have the feeling of being on my own path, satisfied with and excited by what I am doing in my life, I'm not going to be jealous of my partner's accomplishments or needing him to be smaller so I don't get too anxious. Nor will I need him to accomplish more so I can ride along on the accomplishment wagon.
When I know what I feel and what I want, then I can communicate my desires -- and be open to hearing what my partner wants as well. When I know what I want and I trust that, I don't end up resenting the other person because I haven't said what I needed and they didn't read my mind.
Perhaps the biggest gift I've received in the relationship area was the certainty that grew in me after many years of inner work, that the other person's feelings belong to them.
Growing up in an alcoholic/codependent family, I soaked up the idea that when Dad was depressed, it was the job of all the rest of us to handle his feelings for him. My mother didn't show her feelings at all, so I had her feelings for her too.
When I started getting into relationships, it was nearly automatic to believe my partner's fears and angers were my fault and my responsibility. In the resulting tangle, no wonder it was hard to feel myself.
I even thought that's what "love" meant!
Many years of inner work using a process called Focusing have shifted all this for me. I can sit with my partner when he's upset, but it doesn't become my upset. It belongs to him. When my nephew is in tears over his own relationship woes, I am there... but I don't offer advice unless he asks, because that's his feeling, not mine.
The space I have for connecting with others is much bigger now, because I am myself, not all the people around me. It feels great!

Does It Really Exist?
Everything you ever wanted can be obtained if only you are really ready to work to attain it.When you are determined to startup indentifying all your wants and as well as unwanted ones then its shows that you are ready to have them all. Women are things to have and cherish but you must know what is good for you.
Beautiful! I compliment you for starting to identify what you want and what you don't want. Until we make decisions about what we want, we cannot expect to attract it!
Be patient and appreciative of your friend's efforts, as this will encourage the Creative Mechanism to continue sending you opportunities to meet that 'awesome' mate you are wanting. And, of course, it's important to reassure yourself that just because the 'nice' guys you're meeting aren't 'awesome' yet, doesn't mean you have to settle for less than you desire.
You ask, "Is that kind of relationship out there?" Absolutely! I am truly blessed to be in a business that allows me the luxury of witnessing the creation of marvelous romances and soul mate rendezvous every day. And, I'm even more blessed to have purposefully and intentionally used the laws of attraction to manifest my honey (that I'm madly in love with!) Having witnessed the possibility from all angles, I know it's possible for you too.
If you haven't experienced significant and clear 'intentional manifesting' success and you do not have noteworthy examples of others experiencing that success, then it may be a bit more challenging to imagine, to have faith, and to trust in the process and in your inner power of attraction.
Now, for die-hard 'Law of Attraction' purists, you may want to 'skip' the negative explanations of why we don't get what we want below. Why would I write something and then suggest that it could be skipped?
The reason is we don't HAVE to know 'why' we don't get what we want - ever, in order to fully employ the law of attraction. All we HAVE to know is what we want and focus upon that. The law of attraction works without fail and when we focus upon, trust, and allow what we desire, we must attract it.
Unfortunately, however, there are certain life experiences (such as divorce, bankruptcy, career transitions, getting older, having a baby, quitting smoking, etc.) that tend to have 'global consciousness vibrations' that influence our ability (or inability) to create!
For example, many newly divorced persons who have been cast unexpectedly back into the shark pool of single-fiefdom, feel bitter, afraid, inadequate, confused, lonely and like a failure. Often these global-consciousness feelings can then seep into and influence anyone going through divorce.
Therefore, you may find yourself feeling like you're going down without a life preserver and there's nothing in sight that can keep your frustrations and fears from eating you alive! All the while, knowing what you know about conscious living, you may be batty and bewildered about where these negative feelings are coming from!?! To make matters worse, anything that you observe such as statistics and limitations, will influence your ability to intentionally attract.
For example, you may be observing edicts that forecast the fruitlessness of relationships: divorce rates, permanently single 'old-maids' of both sexes, fear of STD's, psycho stalkers, workplace sexual harassment fears, and the overall consensus that 'it's harder now than ever to meet quality, potential mates'.
We haven't even touched on any unloving thoughts that you may be having about yourself such as, "I'm a failure at relationships", or "I'm not thin enough, good enough, smart enough, attractive enough and/or successful enough" or "I wouldn't know how to act on a date", etc.
From this perspective, allow me to answer the question "Is that kind of relationship out there?"
No. That 'kind' of relationship is not going to be available for those who have more of the above thoughts, fears, and beliefs than thoughts of possibility, hope, enthusiasm, forgiveness, and faith.
You may ask, "Is that the Truth?!?! What I want can't happen for me?!?"
NO - it doesn't HAVE to be the truth! In fact, every belief or idea that suggests any of the negative realities above is complete hooey!
Your work is to say, "Balderdash! I refuse to buy into that limited reality! I refuse to give even one more second of my attention to ANY idea that suggests I can't have what I want! I refuse to believe in anything less than, "this is going to be a wonderful new adventure!"
It's all hogwash! If I may use such obscure profanity! None of this has any effect on your ability to attract your ideal soul mate; who loves you exactly as you are and who wants to meet you as much as you want to meet them!
It is so easy to become consumed with what we observe instead of what we desire. In our family and friend's intentionally supportive but often-misguided conversations, we often feel the urge to throw in the towel and just forget the dating thing all together. Resist that urge. You can have ALL that you desire. You must however, refuse to succumb to the observations of reality as seen through the eyes of others or through the eyes of your past.
Instead, choose to create and notice the reality of what you want!
In "The Mystic Path to Cosmic Power" by author Vernon Howard, I discovered a life changing quote: "Dare to have no opinions!"
Read that again, "Dare to have no opinions!"
Now, try that on for size! It is an eye-opening, life-changing choice that I constantly aspire to be more in tune with every day. And on the days that I'm conscious enough to achieve this state of mind - I'm amazed at how fabulous and magical life becomes.
Make a decision to begin anew, refreshed, buoyant and eager. Decide right now that you want to attract circumstances and opportunities to see others experiencing what you want. When you see a couple very much in love, exemplifying qualities that you desire, endeavor to appreciate and ideally thrill over their love affair. The more you can summon feelings of happiness for others (admiration and inspiration as opposed to envy, jealousy, or self-doubt) the more rapidly you will attract the same for you. The more you see and believe that this kind of relationship exists, the easier it will become for you to acquire the unwavering faith necessary to attract it into your life.
Secondly, work on eliminating those limiting beliefs! (You can use EFT - emotional freedom technique, NLP - Neuro Linguistics Programming, etc.) I believe in looking at the reasons 'why' I don't have something. Often, I'll come up with an entire slough of negative thoughts that I wasn't even aware of until I ask myself, "What might be inside of me that is blocking my goal?" Then, I'll systematically employ processes to release those doubts and purify my belief. By actively getting my doubts out of the way, I clear the path that allows me to voyage to my desires with greater hopefulness and certainty.
Rest assured, what you want does exist and just for asking the question, you've already begun to attract it to you!

What do they really wanted
Men have been trying to figure out what women want for ages, and to be honest that's a question that bears asking. Without knowing what a woman wants, how can you expect her to respond to you? You've heard the old cliches, that diamonds are a girl's best friend, that every girl wants roses on Valentine's Day, or that what she really wants is romantic getaway, but realistically, what do women want? Answering this question can take a lifetime, and even if it's an extremely enjoyable study on a vastly lovely topic, it will be frustrating, as well! Take a look a few pointers for figuring out what women want. To start off with, women want someone who listens. This seems simple enough, until you add in the fact that you need to comprehend, digest and use accordingly as well. Say a girl mentions that she enjoys sushi. Just hearing this statement is not the end of it. To be counted an active listener, surprise her with a dinner at a Japanese restaurant. Women appreciate small details as well as large ones, so try to integrate this into your life. If she mentions being nervous about a presentation at work, ask her about it in the evening. This will win you major points in the listener category. Remember to be yourself. You might think that a woman prefers someone who is all about her, but realistically, that gets old. Having your own interests and your hobbies makes you much more interesting. Keep in mind that women like being thought of as worthwhile, but too much is too much. If you spend all your time fawning on her, she'll soon start believing that you're a loser who has nothing else going on in his life, and the fact is, she might not be far wrong! When you have a busy life and you make time out of it to spend with your girlfriend or lover, she'll be flattered. Every woman likes to feel that her man is exciting and fascinating, so make sure that you display this. Trust us, women aren't looking for doormats that will serve them hand and foot all day, every day! One strategy that you might want to employ is breaking it down a little bit. So know that the person you're trying to impress is a woman. Well, that breaks it down to a category that encompasses half the human race. Get more specific than that. Maybe she's a librarian; that usually means that she enjoys books. Does she work at a gym? That must mean that fitness is important to her. When you start gathering facts like this, you're getting closer to finding out what is important to the woman that you are interested in. As you can see, figuring out what women want can be frustrating. When you're out there trying to attract the eye of the woman of your dreams, remember that you have a lot to offer and that sometimes, what a woman wants most is for you to head over and say hello.

Your Best Mate
Attracting Your Perfect Mate: Can I Deliberately Manifest A Relationship With Someone Specific?
A common question asked by law of attraction practitioners is, "Can I apply the laws of the universe, the universal law of attraction to manifest a mate? Can I apply positive thoughts, and creative thoughts to intentionally attract a woman, attract a man, attract a relationship and can I manifest someone specifically?" The answer is that if the other person wants what you want, then yes you can manifest a specific person into your life, even if they are presently unaware of what they want. However, this is always a delicate matter because you cannot manifest or create in another person's reality without their participation. In other words, no matter how badly I want to manifest Mel Gibson or how badly my honey would have liked to have manifested Heather Locklear, the Universe cannot deliver them to our doors without their desires being in harmony with ours - it would NOT be a match and therefore NOT possible. Another way this could occur is if the other party is ambivalent to what they want and you apply your creative powers to manifest them specifically. You could in this situation manifest them into your life. However, because your attention is on the object instead of the experience even though you've manifested them it is NOT likely that they will end up being what you really think you want after all. This is because whenever we focus on the object instead of the feeling that we believe the object will bring to our lives, then we are focused on external motivators as opposed to the real quest that we all desire - the presence of God. Our feelings are what vibrate and magnetically pull "things" into our lives and if you focus on the external instead of the internal then the Universe will be reading mixed emotions due to the volatile nature of life - thereby, delivering a mate that matches that volatility. When we focus on "Mr. or Miss Specific Name" instead of what we think that type of relationship will add to our life (that we want but do not now have), then we may get them but we'll get ALL their good and bad qualities. Make no mistake, when we aren't of right-mindedness prior to manifesting a mate our manifestation will show this. The more we have focused on the relationship with "them" and the less we focused on the feelings that a divine relationship will bring to us - the more difficult those flaws will be to handle and overcome. If what you really want is to experience love, security, prosperity, comfort, peace and serenity in the form of a relationship then start by focusing on how you can bring that into your life now, without the mate, and that will be a better use of your creative powers.
Women best partner to have
When women start dating, they're usually in it for the long-term – in other words, they enter the dating arena looking for a possible lifelong partner. This is all well and fine, except that some women are so excited about finding “the one” that they cut corners to take relationships to the next level with a man they think is good for life. Often, this leads to undesirable results.
This is because men enter the dating arena for different reasons from women. While women are looking for men who would make good husbands, men simply date for the fun of it. Basically, they're primarily out to have a good time, with hopes of finding a “girlfriend material” woman coming only in second. Put simply, men love meeting women while keeping their “freedom” intact at the same time.
This is mainly because the great men out there – the attractive, successful, independent ones – are perfectly happy with their single life. And when they think about getting into a relationship, they wonder if it'll add to or take away the fun that they're currently enjoying.
So when they get into a relationshp with you, they wonder, “will she take away my freedom?” Remember that this “freedom” stands for everything he finds enjoyable in his single life, be they his friends, his relatives, his hobbies, his career, etc. So if you seem to encroach into his routines so much that he starts enjoying his freedom less, then he'll start missing his old life and want it back – yes, even if he does like you very much.
I'm aware that many women think that it's the guy's job to work and sacrifice to make the relationship work. But, dear friend, there's a reason why guys like that only show up in fairy tales. Once a guy realizes that a relationship with you involves more work and less fun, then don't you think it's in his best interests to end it?
Fortunately, every relationship doesn't have to end that way. There are ways to get into a good, lasting relationship with a man without him having to let go of the things he loves. Here are the two things that the great men out there want in a woman.
First, the great men out there find emotional maturity attractive. The reason why men don't like clingy women is that they come off as “needy.” Women who rush into relationships are also more likely to be fussy over the little things, like missed phone calls, dates, and other women. These women are emotionally immature, and it's one of the biggest turnoffs for men.
Basically, men look for women who are emotionally stable and can “roll with the punches.” While problems inevitably come, women who can deal with these problems and still lead happy lives are very attractive to the more independent men – so it's a skill worth practicing!
Secondly, the great men out there look for women who support their freedom. In other words, they're looking for women who can seamlessly fit into his lifestyle and actually enhance the fun he's getting from it. If you make the effort to get along with his friends, his family, his hobbies, and his career, then chances are you're in for a long, fulfilling relationship with a real catch.

Women can no be ignored
One of the common problems men face is how to approach women. Whether it is because they are shy, nervous, out of their comfort zone or anything else, a lot of men at some time have issues approaching women. This tends to happen more when the woman is particularly attractive, but with a little work before hand, and some confidence you will quickly be able to approach women with ease.
The first thing you need to have as a man is confidence and remember that women, no matter where and when are people just like you. You have to be able to approach them as such, no matter how good looking they might be. It is best to be happy and comfortable with who you are and where you are in life before you go about approaching women. If you are not you certainly would not feel confident approaching someone new.
This doesn't mean you have to have a great job or be making a lot of money. It just means you have to be comfortable with who you are and enjoy the life you have now, that's all.
The next tip to follow is when you approach a woman do so as if you are looking to get to know the person she is even though you might have other intentions. Do not use pick up lines, women are so conditioned against them anyways and they can smell desperation so it won't help you at all. She could be the most beautiful woman alive, but if she is very high maintenance and does not treat you well, that won't matter. So approach her with a view to see if she is compatible with who you are.
Another problem you might have is how to talk with a woman who you think is better looking than you are, or just very good looking. You just might have no idea what in the world to say to such a beautiful creature. So, let's work on that.
Think about your surroundings. Are you in a store or shop, if so, what kind? If it is a book store you could mention something about the book she is looking at, or ask her if she knows where a section of the bookstore is. Usually once you crack the ice it is a lot easier to continue talking. Even if she tells you right away where that section is you might act like you don't know where that is, or ask her to help you find a certain book in that section. There are many options, so use them.
If you are in line for something and you notice her in your front, you could mention something about the cashier, how slow the line is moving, or a particularly good sale right next to the checkout. Just try to make it something that can lead to a discussion.
One last tip is it is usually easier to approach a woman who is by herself, instead of with a group, not only is it easier on you, but it is just easier to get her talking when she isn't already with a bunch of friends who are doing that. So, give it a shot, you will never know what can happen, unless you do.

LOVE PALPATIONS
My life isn’t the same anymore. Ever since that proposal, it’s been going upside down. Extreme emotions, mood swings and increased palpitations. My heart was a tumultuous affair last night. I wanted to talk to her. I didn’t know how to… but I wanted to talk. I was scared, overwhelmed, petrified… even paranoid. What had I gotten myself into? After the initial euphoria wore off, I realized I was sweating. Sweating as I finally understood the gravity of the entire situation. I was waiting for a reply to my proposal of a lifetime… and not something that was temporary. What had I done? I had to talk to her… but didn’t have the courage to. It’s not that I had a doubt in my mind about the girl, I just maybe wasn’t thinking and acted impulsively.
But then, something happened. Something that calmed my frayed nerves completely and made me believe my choice was perfect. She called!
She called and spoke to me. She called to tell me how her day in Ilesha was. She called to tell me she loved me. And then she said the unthinkable. She told me she knew I was scared, even unsure. She assured me she would wait. there was no hurry. I could take as much time as I needed to know her, to find her… to love her. She was ready to be the woman in my life without placing any conditions. She just wanted to be with me… and she was ready to do it when I was.
Her thoughtfulness and understanding stance amazed me. Never in my life had I come across someone who was willing to do so much for me. She wasn’t just loving me but willing to wait for me to fall in love with her - at my own time, on my own conditions. All my apprehensions vanished. No longer was I scared. I didn’t need to be. I had the biggest support with me - her. She was there with me. Her love for me is crazy… and I love that about her. I keep telling her about the little things that I love about her. I love a lot of things about her. Her cheeks, the way she smiles, the way her eyes widen when I tell her something crazy, the way she gets slightly possessive around me, the way she talks to me when I am unsure… the way she loves me.
I love her. And I am glad I have her by my side. I know this is going to be a wonderful, lifelong relationship. I know!
