		<description><![CDATA[In our previous article about friends and enemies we discussed how the man you are involved with should be more of a positive person in your life than a negative. We expect our friends to live up to our idea of what a friend really is: loyally, faithful, truthful and supportive. We expect our friends to treat us with respect, have time for us, and show us that they care about us. The intimate relationships we have should be held to the same standards. If you expect a friend to treat you a certain way, why would you let the man in your life have a lower standard? Why would you call your friend out on the carpet if they did something wrong, but not the man you love? Now let&#8217;s get to our enemies. Why are they our enemies? Did they do something to hurt you, lie to you, mistreat you, or disrespect you? If they did, it makes sense that they are your enemy. But if the man in your life has done all that, why don&#8217;t you see him as your enemy instead of the man you love? You cannot possibly expect to be happy if you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Women seem to want to talk about things with the men in their lives. They want to talk about their day, their feelings, the relationship, the people that are driving them crazy etc. But what if the man in your life is not listening to you when you talk? Why would you continue talking to them at that point? You may be frustrated that you tell him things to do, and he doesn&#8217;t do them. You may be angry that you warned him not to stay out late again with his buddies and not call you. You have told him over and over again that if he stands you up or cancels on you one more time it is over. But yet he does exactly what you told him over and over not to, or he doesn&#8217;t do what you have told him over and over to do. You do not understand WHY you have to tell him this same crap over and over and over again. I know why. It is because your words are not followed by ACTIONS. Therefore, they are meaningless and no real threat to him. So he doesn&#8217;t take out the garbage like you asked [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever asked someone about their relationship and all they can respond with is &#8220;It&#8217;s complicated&#8221;? Have you ever seen someone list their relationship status as &#8220;It&#8217;s complicated&#8221;? I guess saying it is complicated sounds better than saying it is dysfunctional, but the truth is the truth. The simple, UN-complicated fact is, your relationship most likely should end, and you know it. All relationships are complex, but quite often we make them more complicated than they really are. Occam&#8217;s razor is a line of reasoning that the simplest answer is most likely the correct one. This line of reasoning is used by police to solve crimes, doctors to diagnose illnesses, etc. It would be great if people used this same line of reasoning to simplify their relationships, instead of making them more complicated. Let&#8217;s looks at some scenarios for &#8220;complicated relationships&#8221; and cut through the bull*hit once and for all: 1. If you are married but in the process of getting a divorce, just put divorced instead of the dramatic label of &#8220;it&#8217;s complicated&#8221;. If anyone really needs to know the details, they already know, or you can tell them personally. People that are working on their marriage, or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everyone is afraid of something. We may not all be afraid of the same things, but we are all afraid of something. For the moment, let us use sharks as an example. Why are most human beings afraid of sharks? Because sharks will bite you, eat you, and you will probably die. (Good reasons). We are afraid of sharks because of what they will do to us. If sharks just hugged and blew kisses at people instead of eat/kill them, everyone would want to have a pet shark in their pool. So how does this relate to relationships? It is the same concept. If your husband or boyfriend is always doing things to upset you, hurt you, or make you angry, you may wonder, why he isn’t afraid of you, or afraid of losing you. Could it be because he views you as a baby seal and not as a shark? When he does something you don’t like do you just yell, scream, or talk his ear off? Please keep in mind that no one is a afraid of a barking dog, they are afraid of the barking dog biting them. If you just verbalize your displeasure with him (barking) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are a lot of blogs out there that talk about &#8220;connections&#8221; women can have with men in this airy fairy way that make me want to puke. I understand people can feel connected to someone but what I don&#8217;t understand is how &#8220;connections&#8221; seem to give women a free pass to stay in dead end relationships or to pursue the wrong ones. Women tell me that this &#8220;connection&#8221; is on another level, that it is not just love or attraction but something else. O.k. fine, I can go with that, but what I won&#8217;t buy into is that the Universe, God, or whatever &#8220;connected&#8221; you to an emotionally unavailable man that you cannot &#8220;disconnect&#8221; from. Why would the universe, God, your Angels, or anything good force you to feel a connection to a man who is emotionally unavailable? So you can &#8220;cure&#8221; him? Please. If the Universe, God, your Angels or whoever had the power to make this connection that you are powerless over, then couldn&#8217;t they make him emotionally available while they are at it? I do believe in connections with men that are good for us and good choices for us, but I believe the opposite is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A friend of mine is crazy about this man she has been seeing for about six months. She has not seen much of him though, because he has many hobbies and interests and works a lot. She told me she wished that she could see more of him but understands that he has a high profile job and that his career is important to him. When I asked her why she had not seen him for the last two weekends she told me he was hunting with his buddies out of state for one weekend and attending a sporting event the other weekend. I asked her if that was ok with her. She said it was because it was not like he was spending time with other women. I asked her why she was trying to have a relationship with someone who is not available for one. She did not like that and tried to explain six ways from Sunday that he is just a very busy man, blah blah blah, and gives her what time he has, blah blah blah and then it was my turn. I asked her, point blank: He has shown you he doesn&#8217;t have time [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Before you let your heart invest in a relationship, you need to make sure the man you choose in emotionally available. Here are some signs of an emotionally unavailable man so you can spot one quickly, before you are in too deep: 1. If he has a girlfriend or wife. If he has not divorced the wife and broken up with the girlfriend, he is emotionally unavailable to you. No ifs, ands or buts about it. If he is separated from his wife or broken-up with the girlfriend, but they still live together for ANY REASON AT ALL, he is emotionally unavailable and off-limits to your heart. 2. Communication &#8211; If he is hard to reach and disappears for days/weeks/months without warning (or explanation) then he is emotionally unavailable. If he wanted to get closer to you, he would keep your communication steady and reliable. You would talk about deeper things than sex, the weather and your jobs. He would use that communication to learn more about you and give you the chance to learn more about him. If trying to get him to talk is like pulling teeth, he is emotionally unavailable. If he is constantly unavailable when you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have heard the term &#8220;emotionally unavailable&#8221; and was not sure what to think. Was this yet another cute catch phrase/label or another excuse/reason we give to a man to explain why our relationships are off-balance? We are all human, and all humans have the ability to feel emotions, so wtf is an emotionally unavailable man? If a man cannot love anyone on earth, then I would call him emotionally unavailable. If he is emotionally involved with someone else, but not available to you emotionally, then he IS emotionally available, just not to you. And who is to say that if he was not emotionally involved with someone else, that he would be emotionally available to you anyway? Emotions, such as love, are not dictated by logic. You could be attractive, smart, funny, loving, the whole nine yards, but that does not mean that everyone will fall in love with you. No one knows exactly why people fall in love or become emotionally invested with their partners. There is no secret formula for getting all men to fall in love with you. So does that mean that every guy who won&#8217;t fall for you is emotionally unavailable? No. So where [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When couples break up, the questions we are asked the most is: 1. Can I get him back? 2. Will I get him back? 3. Should I get him back? The first thing you have to look at, before you even think about getting back together, is why you broke up in the first place. If you have broken up several times already, and have always gotten back together, chances are you are in an on/off relationship and will get back together again. However, instead of worrying if you will reunite, you need to focus on why you are in an on/off relationship. An on/off relationship is one where most people are not aware they are even in a relationship. The couple breaks up numerous times and gets back together. For one, it is a game, and they know they will get back together. The other thinks the &#8220;break ups&#8221; are real and goes through emotional hell each time. These relationships get worse over time, never get the chance to grow, and inevitably will end. Focus on how to change your relationship from an on/off relationship first before you even think of getting back together, since you will only repeat [...]]]></description>
