		<description><![CDATA[Adult relationships are the most healthy, happy, and have the most longevity. Childish, immature relationships having Drama Queens and Drama Kings, are dysfunctional and will bring more misery than happiness. You may think you have found true love or real love, but if childishness and immaturity plays a big part in your relationship, you are in danger of losing the relationship because it is going to crash and burn. As an adult, in order to communicate properly you have to both listen attentively and know how to speak without resorting to snark, sarcasm, accusations, nagging, and other traits that make someone tune you out. Giving a child a time-out is one thing, but your relationship is NOT a child. Resorting to childish behavior, such as giving the silent treatment for days on end is destructive, not constructive. It is one thing to leave to calm down and return with a cool head but if it takes you days to calm down, you are again behaving like a baby (especially if the issue was no big deal) and causing damage. Without a lot of effort on your part, the damage can be irreparable. So why do it? Why do people act [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Complaining and Criticizing in a Relationship Part 2 In our previous posting, we discussed how too much complaining and criticizing can damage a relationship. Is your partner constantly complaining and criticizing? Is it about the same few things or is it different from day to day? Do you feel like no matter what you do, or how well you do it, he will always find something to bitch about? Do you get no credit for doing anything well but always hear about every little thing you did &#8220;wrong&#8221;? Are you feeling that you can&#8217;t do anything right and you will never please your partner? If that is the case you need to have a discussion with your Husband/Boyfriend about the seriousness of the situation. Reach an understanding and give the dynamic some time to change. See a professional if need be. If the constant complaining or criticizing does not change, it may be time for you to consider leaving the relationship. No one wants to live with negative re-enforcement on a daily basis, and you should not either. People don&#8217;t really change when they are criticized, they are more likely to do so with positive compliments. Think about it. When [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Complaining and Criticizing in a Relationship Part 1 No relationship is perfect, and neither are the two people in that relationship. It is hard not to criticize our loved ones even when we try. Sometimes our criticism is constructive, but other times it is the exact opposite &#8211; destructive. Too many complaints and too much criticism can take the romance out of a relationship faster than a speeding bullet. Look at the way you and your partner communicate? Is it mostly in a loving, supportive and uplifting way? When you speak is it one negative thing after the other? If it is the latter, one would assume your sex life is not as good as it could be. It is much more difficult to feel sexy or romantic towards your partner when they have very little good to say about you. Those criticisms and complaints can really hurt your ego, so initiating sex can lead to rejection, so you simply don&#8217;t do it anymore. People say you should not take it personally and that your partner may mean well, but when the delivery is bad and it goes on day after day, you have no choice but to start taking [...]]]></description>

If he cares so little about his office and reputation that he will risk scandal for an affair, how can we believe he is taking his position in office seriously? A woman on a talk show said that one of the politicians had a marriage in trouble, and implied that what he was doing wasn't so bad because of the condition of his marriage.]]></description>

Now you have crossed the line. You are a stalker. If he has given you reasons to not trust him whatsoever, you probably never will and you will have to continue this behavior forever. Do you like doing this?]]></description>

They cannot forget the days they heard you complain and cry when we questioned your sanity for being with this pig in the first place.

1) Make sure you call/text/email him constantly right from the get-go. It doesn't have to be anything important. Make sure to do it while he is at work or busy so you can really be annoying. Then get mad at him for not getting back to you immediately ...every single time.]]></description>
