Love affairs. Who wants them? Only the phrase brings up all kinds of emotions in me.
Love affairs can be so many things, from wonderful to awful, from exciting to frightening, from glorious to hurtful.
For some love affairs can be the most destructive thing in the world, for others the most creative thing in the world.
Have you ever thought how it would be if no woman in the world would ever go out with a married man? And of course, same visa versa. I guess the divorce rate would drop drastically, don’t you think?
Question is, what makes us want to date someone who’s ‘taken’? Who’s already committed? Someone who’s married with a family? YES, someone who IS unavailable?
Is it the adventure? Romance? The excitement of something new? The thrill of the forbidden? Maybe even boredom and YES, is it just sex?
Where will it all end? And what about the many lives that can be destroyed? And even if it goes on for sometime and you get emotionally involved, your heart is on fire and than realise there is no future? Where will it leave you?
Do you remember this song? Some say it makes them sad – moody – peaceful – relaxed – melancholic – tearful – miserable – happy … well, it is certainly a ‘mood enhancer’ either way.
Personally, it makes me smile, because it reminds of my lovely Dad.
How about you? What feelings or memories does it bring back to you?
Close to You
LYRICS:
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Just like me (Just like me)
They long to be
Close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Just to remind you, trust IS the basis of a good relationship. The nature of the ties don’t matter, be it boyfriend and girlfriend, husband and wife, friends, siblings, neighbours, fellow workers, parents etc. You have to have some measure of trust with others to have the ability to get on well with them.
Sad but true, but this is really the point most men don’t grasp. Most males expect to ’run’ a relationship on their terms. When, where, what, how and not to forget the time here, HE determines when he had enough.
If you doubt him, he doesn’t support you, doesn’t re-assure you – no, he gets moody, calls you insecure and yes, he calls you needy. Where all you want is take part in his day, share what he’s been doing, support him, be there with love and understanding. You doubt him because of what he says and what he doesn’t say. And the distrust creeps in.
So how do you trust a man who talks about other people, even friends, but he never takes you to meet them?
How do you trust a man who swears his love to you, but he can’t introduce you to his family?
And how do you trust a man who just appears to be interested in your body? Having a fun time between the sheets and doesn’t desire to go out with you?
