Friends are Funny Creatures
Anyone who has crossed over would agree to that. It’s like when we cross over even the most insignificant things start niggling us. A small comment or a lame joke usually end up in the unchartered territory. And we usually don’t want to mention that we were offended by something that didn’t feel right to us. You see all the perceptions about grown-ups ‘discussing’ their problems are a farce. We don’t ‘discuss’ anything heavier than the weather.

Verbal Abuse is Never About You

Are You REALLY Happy In Your Relationship Or Have You Just Settled?
I recently read a study that indicated that 91% of all people in relationships were not happy. Now I can't tell you if this percentage is true, if it is an accurate portrayal of the average relationship or an exaggeration to get people’s attention. I don't know the details or particulars of the study as they were not given in very much depth. But the fact remains, that if 91% of the people surveyed felt this way, can we assume that many other people in general who were not surveyed are not happy as well? I don’t like to make assumptions but this number is really scary.

Don't Wait To Tell People How Much They Mean To You
Un-communicated feelings mean squat! People don't know how you feel until you tell them how you feel. Over twenty years ago my best friend died of cancer. Randy was 41. He was successful, competent, always positive and loved and lived life to the fullest then he was gone.

Everyday Gift Ideas That Will Make SPARKS Fly!
Guys serenade her by getting up in the middle of a fully crowded restaurant (not a cheap “all you can eat” type) and declaring your undying love for her in front of a bunch of “I don’t need a man to make me happy” man-hating women. Blaring “our song” outside her window in the middle of the night after you’ve had a nasty fight will get you back in the house quicker than you can say “Halle Berry”.
