Bagging The Guy You Want – The Rules To Getting That Man

So, there is this guy that you like. Every time he looks at you, you feel butterflies in your stomach. The bottom line:  You Like Him! Now the question remains, how is it that you can get him to like you? Here are some suggestions that you could follow and then leave Stupid Cupid to do the rest. Being Yourself: This one is, perhaps, not given as much attention as it should have been. None of us like deception. Picture this: For the first couple of dates, the guy is sweet and complimentary; and is extremely chivalrous with his pulling up chairs and holding the doors open for you. But when things turned a little more serious, all that has disappeared. Wouldn’t you feel cheated if that happened to you? Well, assuming that you said yes, all I’m trying to say here is that don’t do the same  [...]

Is Facebook Shaping Up New Rules For Relationships?

Is Facebook Shaping Up New Rules For Relationships?

Posted on Oct 05, 2010 in Relationships | Leave a Comment
A couple of months back, a male colleague of mine received a rather startling message on Facebook from one of his ex-girlfriends who said: I know that you’re blissfully married and so am I, but I was hoping that we could meet if you’re ever in Houston. A little fun never hurt anyone, did it? This isn’t the only such message that has been passed around facebook. The social networking site is soon becoming a medium for the otherwise sex-shy woman to open up to the monster within her. Here are some of the startling discoveries that a recent online survey made. 24 Percent: This is the number of people who actually do not list their ‘real’ relationship status. This is done so that they can keep their ‘options’ open as well as it gives them a chance to continue flirting with others.   [...]

Managed Monogamy – A Reality?

Managed Monogamy – A Reality?

Posted on Oct 01, 2010 in Relationships | Leave a Comment
According to an article in the magazine New York which was entitled ‘The New Monogamy’, marriages are now beginning to become more and more open. The thinking now states that ‘cheating’ that is agreed upon will not allow the ward to stray further away. According to this view, as long as the spouse is ‘slutting around’ (as the couples put it) within the boundaries that they have set for each other, it would be deemed acceptable by both parties. The rules are known to range from only kissing to full-blown orgies in some cases. Sure, the whole concept sounds crazy; but let’s go with it for now, considering the fact that true monogamy can sometimes ruin great relationships. Provided the rules of such an engagement are weighed out right at the beginning, do these marriages work out?  [...]

Regardless of whether your grandmother and grandfather approve or not, live-in relationships have begun to take precedence over marriages. I say, ‘Cynics never sleep’; so if you have yourself nodding your head in disagreement claiming that ‘Marriages are still the rulers of the game’, then I have news for you. It might just be time for you to wake up and smell the sunshine without a ring on your finger. All said and done, moving in together might or might not be the best option for you and your partner. You wouldn’t want to end up singing Shaggy’s ‘It Wasn’t Me’ just because she has a pair of keys to your place now. All said and done, living with your partner is going to change the equation for you, big time! Look at some of these emotional and financial aspects before  [...]

It’s not all about money, honey

It’s not all about money, honey

Many a time, money is one of the reasons why a couple falls out and a perfectly good marriage hits the rocks. Here’s some of the most common reasons people squabble over cash. Neglect Sometimes, everything is not what it seems and arguments about money are not really arguments about money but instead an indication of neglect and a basic lack of attention and care for the marriage itself rather than the money itself. Bringing up money issues or splurging cash is a way to paper over deeper issues and it is key that you understand the root cause of the quarrel and address it, be it monetary or emotional. Obscured reality Have you ever wondered why money is never an issue at the beginning of a relationship? The honeymoon period of a relationship is one in which nothing can go wrong but as  [...]

In our childhood, we share almost everything with our parents, but as we grow- things are not that same. Our life starts splitting with many people. Many people enter our life and everyone has their own importance. Apart from our parents, various people such as siblings, teachers, and friends start entering our life. We cannot share the same level of chemistry with every individual in our life.

With all these existing people in our life, in our teens we meet someone special. We never know what is so special about this person, but he becomes an important part of our life.
