Trust - The Basis of Every Good Relationship

Posted by Viola

Trust - The Basis of Every Good Relationship

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?

Love and Anger in Your Relationship | Anger, Love’s Poison

Love and Anger in Your Relationship | Anger, Love’s Poison

It’s impossible for love and anger to run alongside each other. Especially not in a relationship. Surely I don’t have to tell you that anger will ALWAYS push love away. It is almost impossible for someone to receive anger and to continue feeling love towards the angry person.

Anger shows up in many different forms, I.e, sarcasm, hostility, criticism and yes, in many cases even in cruelty. Anger poisons love. Anger is known to be one of the most negative emotions, and negative feelings are powerful. They linger. They are LONG lasting.

We all experience times when we feel irritated with our partner, or even another close member of the family. But at these moments we have a choice. We will almost certainly ruin our relationship if we react with judgement, criticism, conflict or anger. As I said, we have a choice, and we can consciously decide to respond with kindness, understanding, patience and yes, we can also respond with love.

If you think or anyone tells you that arguments are ‘normal’ or a ‘necessary’ part in a relationship, don’t listen and think again. Successful relationships are built with love and respect. By arguing and showing anger you will drive a wedge between you and your partner. And that in turn makes feelings of love and respect for each other impossible. Of course, we do accept the occasional ‘conflict’, and a strong relationship will without a doubt endure the occasional “mistake” and really, we all rather strive for continuous peace, tranquillity and harmony.

So if you want a loving relationship - keep your anger away.

Love - An Emotional Roller Coaster

Love - An Emotional Roller Coaster

Submitted by Jack

Your first love. Did you feel the nervousness? Being overwhelmed with the desire to spend every single second with that person. Constant nagging doubts that the bubble would burst and end any minute?

Do you remember the exact moment when you were holding hands? Kissed? … Touched? … and who knows, possibly made love?

Do you remember that time?

Are you sure? You don’t? ? To be honest, I don’t really remember it either.

Lets be serious for a minute. The first moment, the first blush of love is not like anything else you experience in life. Well, of course, I am not denying that there is always bungee jumping, white water rafting, sky diving and maybe for some even swimming with sharks.

To me, when you are in love, you see the world through totally different eyes. You care for someone more than you care for yourself. You feel complete. You never want to be with anyone else except for the one you feel this overwhelming hot desire.

Lets face it. I am sure that most would love to have just one love for their entire life. Some like one to many, where others love with getting nothing in return. And than there are those who are lonely all of their lives and they may find comfort in doing something else.

Love is like an emotional roller coaster and whatever circumstances you find yourself in, it is YOU who’s in the front car.

When love ‘turns up’, it can do that in many ways and you never know when the love arrow hits you straight in your heart.

Love can knock on your door at any age. At any time. At any place. Love can leave you breathless.

If you have a love in your life, be nice to them. Be kind to them. There are many ways to show your love. Show them how much you love them in your own special way.

For the once who are without love. Do not be discouraged. Love seldom comes to you, so seek it out, find it.

Love Addiction - Emotional Neediness

Posted by Viola

Love Addiction - Emotional Neediness

You’re in a relationship that fills you with pain, worry, doubt, anxiety and restlessness. You suddenly suffer from sleepless nights. Biting your fingernails. You sit most nights drinking alcohol and smoking.

Wasn’t it just glorious when you first met? You just couldn’t believe how intelligent, funny and loving he was. You got to know each other. He turned into an angry, distant and domineering man. But you were so insanely in love with him and you accepted any humiliation.

You forgot how to be yourself. You were always alert to his moods. You were helpful and yes, even eager to change. But the day came and you couldn’t take it any longer. You moved out. Well, for one day and than you were back.

Not a lot changed. You still craved affection as well as communication. The way he was hooked on computer games and playing non-stop drives you insane. You can’t stand his lack of needing to be with you. To communicate with you. The missing intimacy. The loneliness and the feeling of sexual deprivation.

You feel dependent, where you want to feel relaxed, be at peace. Change your focus. But you choose to blame yourself, after all, it isn’t really his fault.

Does this sound like you?

Love addiction or emotional neediness is a toxic interplay which I also class as co-dependency. A dysfunctional approach to relationships.

=> Love addicts have overpowering emotional needs
=> Love addicts are unable to love themselves, as they have an empty space within they cannot nurture, calm or soothe
=> Love addicts don’t have a clue who they are
=> Love addicts dislike who they think they are
=> Love addicts have no self-esteem
=> Love addicts rely on other’s approval
=> Love addicts rely on other’s love
=> Love addicts have the need for attention
=> Love addicts have a strong need for passion (mistaking passion for love)
=> Love addicts are exhausting
=> Love addicts can humiliate themselves
=> Love addicts can adapt to whatever their lover admires
=> Love addicts can easily accept any kind of abuse
=> Love addicts are obsessed
=> Love addicts may abuse alcohol or food (many are alcoholics or suffer from eating disorders)
=> Love addicts medicate their pain by going shopping
=> Love addicts are destructive

If a love addict feels rejected, he/she may choose to constantly send text messages, call the other person, become a stalker, or even try and stop a new relationship.

Love addiction is a desperate cry for help! Love addiction is a compulsive behaviour, but I guess all addictions are. Lets face it, all addictions are exhausting and of course deeply destructive. If you are a love addict, you know deep down that you are scared of being alone. Being without your lover. Where in reality you know that you want to be FREE.

So how about YOU? Are YOU a love addict?

Final thought:
Remember, the cause of your unhappiness is not your relationship, that is just the symptom!

Good Grief!!! That is a LOT of treatments and “alterations”!!!!

House For Sale - Husband Included

House For Sale - Husband Included

How ‘faithful’ are you? Are you a cheater?

Infidelity is on the rise… Married BUT cheating!!!

I am sure there are many men (AND women) out there who have been there before and find that it doesn’t only create old familiar issues, it creates new once also. Of course, for some it’s a very confusing situation. But for others polyamory (more than one intimate partner at the same time) seems to work well.

How about you?

=> What meets your needs and desires?
=> What should a socially accepted relationship look like?
=> How do you feel about ‘open relationships’ versus ‘customised relationships?
=> Do you believe cheating is a SIN?
=> What about your own story? Do you have one to tell?
=> What’s your personal experience?
=> How would you feel being the ‘other’, the ‘bit on the side’?
=> What is there at the end of it?
=> How do you feel about polyamory?

And that also leaves the question about marriage. Do we really need government and legal institutions to confirm to us that our marriage is official?

I’d like to hear your thoughts/experiences/feelings on this - and believe me, I also have a story to tell.

Amora London: The Art of Seduction

London, United Kingdom - Amora London is the world’s first visitor attraction dedicated to love and relationships. During its 11 month run well over 300,000 people have visited the interactive experience in Piccadilly, London. I guess I have to admit that I was one of the 300,000 visitors ;-)

Some facts of interest include:

>> 62% of visitors are couples
>> 52% are Londoners
>> The majority of visitors are between 25 and 50 years of age
>> 23% of visitors are returning visitors
>> Women bring their office friends and later these women bring their husband/partner/boyfriend for a visit
>> proactive, educational and entertaining for the lover in all of us
>> The perfect place for adults to explore and engage on key aspects of relationships, love and also their well-being.
>> 48% of visitors are from overseas - mainly North America and Japan
>> The best mixture from science, art, performance and virtual reality
>> interactive environment for the exploration of all topics

Earlier this year a survey run by Amora showed that the female is the catalyst to drive her partner to take her to visit Amora.

It seems that the British public is keen to understand more about relationships and becoming the perfect lover.

“Amora is totally inclusive, interactive, engaging, sensual, and chic. You will be amused, educated and amazed by its content,” says Dr. Sarah Brewer, Director of Exhibits, and award-winning sexual health writer.
