		<description><![CDATA[Here we go again&#8230; the television has all these cutesy-wootsie commericals with a guy and his son picking out a gift for his wife on Valentines day. She gets her gift, kisses her husband and the precocious child let&#8217;s the Mom know (who has tears in her eyes) that he helped pick it out. Awwwwwwwwww. For the rest of the world, without central casting and a script, Valentines day is not always so picture perfect. The reality is, if you have a relationship that is good almost every day, and your partner treats you well almost every day, Valentines Day does mean something. However, if the man in your life treats you like shit, ignores you, manipulates you, and basically makes life suck 364 days a year, that one day doesn&#8217;t mean bubbkus. He can bring you flowers, candy or you can go out to dinner, but what about the rest of the year? Why do women put such value on one day of the year and ignore the rest of it? I have heard how pissed some women are going to be if he doesn&#8217;t get them something or do something on Valentine&#8217;s Day (or God forbid, forgets it). [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[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 it personally. Instead of using words like &#8220;You [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay so the guy seems to be interested in you. He stares, is extra friendly, helpful, and you feel the spark between the two of you. Others have noticed it as well. The problem is that he has not acted on it! You have waited patiently, have enjoyed the time you spend with him, but you keep asking yourself &#8220;What is he waiting for?&#8221;. The question you ask yourself, and your friends, is should you do something about it? Before you decide to do that, maybe you should think about all the reasons, other than shyness or being afraid, that could be the real reason he is not asking you out. &#160; 1) He is attracted to you and likes you as a fellow human being. But that is it. He does not want any more than that, and that is why he is not pursing more than that with you. People can find others attractive but not want to do anything about it, the like the flirtation and want to keep it at that. 2) You work together and he is against work relationships. If he really feels that way, and you try and push the envelope, changing his mind [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Even the best of relationships have issues, yet when ours do we feel like it's "ruined" because it is no longer perfect. We need to understand that a perfect relationship is one that survives and thrives after the bad times. It is the bad times that prove our commitment, love, and loyalty. Those are the tests that strengthen our relationships. You know who your real friends are when you are going through a bad time. The same goes with your relationships.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While men try to avoid anything that could remind them of their ex, women tend to do the opposite. Women will re-read emails and letters to the point that they have them memorized. That takes them on a literary journey through the relationship they just got out of and re-opens the wounds so they cannot heal. In most cases at times of breakups, women tend to focus on the "shiny happy times" before your ex showed his true colors. We think of all the things we will miss, how the relationship could have worked "If only he ____", and the pure shame of it all. What women DON'T tend to focus on is the bad side of their ex and all the reasons why it didn't work out.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Be careful about when you are talking about yourself. You want someone to choose you for the right reasons ! Don't be ready to tell just anyone the size of your income, how much real estate you own, car / cars you drive, or how much you have in the bank. Let's face it, we all want to impress others, but certain information should only be released to people you have taken to the next level. You don't want someone more interested in your possessions than in YOU.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you look up the word friend to find a definition you would could up with something similar to the following: A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts. A person whom one knows; an acquaintance. A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; a comrade. If you take a look at couples that are in strong, healthy, satisfying relationships, you will see that they fit the definition of a friend as well as a lover. If you take a look at people in unhappy, dysfunctional drama-ridden relationships you will see that they do not fit the definition of friend. What they DO fit is the definition of the word enemy a lot better. The word enemy can be defined as: One who feels hatred toward, intends injury to, or opposes the interests of another; a foe. A hostile power or force Something destructive or injurious in its effects. Which is the person YOU are involved with? Your friend or your enemy? We have all heard that the best relationships start out being friends first, and even though you may not have started out that way with your partner, shouldn&#8217;t you be friends NOW? You have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They may be interested in you but already in a relationship and have no intentions of ending it. They could be interested in you and do nothing about it. They could lose interest in you just as quickly as they got it. If they pay no attention to any other member of the opposite sex when you are around, many people would assume that they are really interested in only you. However, some people may be afraid to talk to you because they like and are interested in you, and can talk to other people more easily than they can talk to you. So that sign doesn't always apply.
