Love Affairs: What Would You Do?

Submitted by Evina

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?

… and in the end were tears!…

…… Believe me, I KNOW what I’m talking about!…………

Ego limits the flow of love

Submitted by Hayley Leggett

Whatever is in your heart that is not clean, not true, will ultimately begin to act like a wall, obstructing the natural flow of love. People who say that there is no love in their life, are being blocked by this wall. Actually there is love, but they just can’t accept it. Ego is the clearest example of this. Ego limits the flow of love by placing conditions on the love you give and receive. Ego uses love to satisfy its own needs and desires. It produces a love which is deceptive, one which brings only temporary satisfaction. Ego does not allow you to experience true love or share it. If fact, ego is capable of destroying your ability to feel love altogether.

What Men Say, BUT Don’t Really Mean

We all know that men are well known for their straight talking and also for their tell-it-like-it-is-attitude.

But there are also times when ‘YOU gentlemen’ say things that you don’t really mean. And most of these things get you (or have got you) into “serious” trouble. It is imprinted in your DNA and you try and protect your manliness whatever the price……

Let me see and investigate what the most common things you say are and NOT even mean!

Here goes:

>> A discussion comes up about a movie. You haven’t seen it. But you try and blag your way through the discussion where you don’t know NOTHING at all about the film, the cast or even the plot. What is this….? Does it really matter if you can join in to the talk?

>> There he is again, the annoying Pratt from school. He has always been an all around ‘nice’ guy. He was the sports star. The womaniser…they ALL loved him… But you got to be ‘friendly’ don’t you, so you say: “Hi there, let me know when you are free, we need to catch up over a pint soon“. Well, best timing is when hell freezes over.

>> … this is a REAL classic: “Hi Lads, tonight I am only having one drink and then I am off ” - well, I think that most men are incapable of having JUST one drink. Before you know it, you join in to the karaoke madness. Enter an arm-wrestling competition… to end up in the toilet for a “quickie” with the porky barmaid… REMEMBER, that was the one you swore you could never touch!!!

>> Than you come up with the “I want to learn a new language” before? As if! Lets face it, most people have problems to speak proper Queen’s English (places like Facebook and things like mobile phones have only made it worse) and simply, you are not going to become the voice of your generation JUST because you speak two or more languages!

>> … “If you don’t stop it, I call the police”! - Don’t you already know that won’t happen? There be to many questions, to much paperwork, to many repeats of details…so you just leave it…

>> …and there we go… ”I promise, I’ll pay you back” - Honest? There is half a truth here. The intention is there and if you are lucky, you will get it back.

>> … hey! Who are you trying to kid by saying “ Oh, she is just a friend.”… It’s bloody obvious, she is a REAL HOT, BIG BREASTED, NYMPHOMANIAC friend…she is sex on legs.

>> … and than there is “Just for a few seconds, let’s put the tip in to see how it feels”. Yeah right! Isn’t this the usual level of practise for ‘deflowering’ women all over the world? And don’t fool yourself by convincing yourself that there could have been a point of return when you planned to say, “well, ok, it’s not really working for me…to pull it out and get dressed again.

>> “WOW!!!! Is this your new girlfriend? She is gorgeous mate” - to be honest, what else can you say when you are ‘desperate’ since the love in your life ’dropped’ you like a hot potato for a new love… maybe her personal trainer?

>> … and how about this one: “I am sorry, but it’s not you, it’s me!” - Isn’t this the biggest lie ever uttered by men? Have you not worked out that even women are using it now as a way to dump you? The truth being, it is you, but I really no one wants to hurt your feelings. Of course, usually they won’t say, you are to fat, you moan to much, you are crap in bed…and just look at your friends, they are hot stuff… and if only you wouldn’t smell so bad!

>> You are out to eat and than what do you do when ordering your meal? You say “What is the hottest curry on your menu? - and I want it NOW!” - THAT IS DESPERATE! You think you are showing manliness? But all you do is trying to convince yourself that shoving down the vindaloo is the BEST way to make sure to show your male dominance.

>> … there is a loop-hole in the dating system that men are very aware off for years. They like bragging about the shagging in the back of the car. But they say “ I am definitely not like the other guys. I never kiss and tell.” - of course, the last thing they like to brag about is kissing…how BORING!

I am sure I have missed out on a thing or two, so please leave your comment ( both gents and ladies ) and we will add it to the list.
