Celebrating Traditions—or Why Hosting a Quinceanera is a Grand Thing
And I stopped and thought about how these traditions come and stay. About how generations of children have celebrated religious heritages with bar/bat mitzvahs and christenings and baptism parties; about how American girls have Sweet Sixteen’s and how Latin girls have Quince’s. About weddings. And how these events occur just once in a lifetime. Once or twice in a family.

Encourage Your Spouse and Build a Relationship That Lasts
It seems that in our society it has come to be expected that women will
get together and criticize their husbands and boyfriends and men will
get together and put down their wives and girlfriends. Everyone has to
have a few sarcastic comments to fling at their partner, especially
when there is an audience around to laugh at their expense. We tend to
tear down the very person we claim to love. I think it has become so
common in our society that sometimes people don’t even realize they are
doing it.

How Do I Trust Again?
I came across a question recently. In brief the poster wanted to know how she could trust any man again. Two men one after other ditched her and the second one was very close. She wanted to know if she should try any new relationship at all or forget it.

Know Your Man: Luxuries
Men complain that some women are unrealistic in their expectations and want too much. They think that, instead of wanting fancy cars and homes and credit cards and jewelry, women should be content in having a good man. They say that when women don't have these things, they complain about having a terrible life.

Know Your Man: Admiration
No woman will stand a relationship if she doesn’t admire her partner. There has to be something that our men are truly good at, that we need to keep reminding ourselves, especially when the luster of the relationship has lost its power or when we want to maintain a good one. Equally, it is important for men to be admired.

The Russian Marriage Agency From Hell
I was peppered with questions about my income and other personal questions. Pressure was being applied for me to use their service in Belarus at what I thought was a ridiculous usurious rate.

Russian Postal Delivery and Letter Writing Expenses
Send ALL correspondence by registered mail. Overland mail to Russia and other CIS countries takes about two to three weeks to arrive from the US first class. I recommend that you pay all the letter-writing expenses of the women you write to, as it is significantly more expensive for them than it is for you as a percentage of their income.

Moral Difference Between Human Beings And Animals
What is ethical and what is not? Same situation can look morally acceptable to one person and absolutely wrong to another. Some people eat meet, others consider it immoral, and there is no definite answer to whether it is right or wrong. The hardest thing is to determine the definition of moral differences, as it depends on each person’s perception. The best example to prove the point would be the religious believes that people have- some eat cow meet, others think it’s immoral and it contradicts to their personal views and believes.
