		<description><![CDATA[Self Esteem &#8211; How Our Relationships are affected by it If one has low self esteem it has a very negative impact on romantic relationships. Someone with low self esteem constantly wonders what their new love interests sees in them, and quite often feels undeserving of love. Instead of believing that they deserve what everyone else does, someone with low self esteem expects less. Someone with low self esteem is always waiting for the shoe to drop, and rarely has hope their relationships will work out. Someone with low self esteem will put themselves down, and will not accept compliments gracefully. (They often do not believe a word of them) Someone involved in a relationship with someone with low self esteem may try very hard to help them build up their self esteem. The problem is, when and if it does not work, they get frustrated and quite often angry. This can sabotage a relationship big time. When someone loves you yet feel no matter what they do you will never believe it, they feel defeated. The believe they can never make you happy no matter what they do. They can get tired of hearing you put yourself down over [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Self Esteem &#8211; How our relationships affect it Don&#8217;t you dare, for one more second, surround yourself with people who are not aware of the greatness that you are. ~Jo Blackwell-Preston Great quote, isn&#8217;t it? It should be common sense that if we surround ourselves with positive people that treat us right we are happier people. If you surround yourself with critical, negative people, you wind up miserable yourself. Look around you at the people you have in your life. If you have high self esteem, the people around you appreciate you, support you, and make you feel good about yourself. If you have low self esteem, chances are that the people around you have damaged your sense of self and have kept it low. Our self esteem plays a big role in our relationships. If we have low self esteem, we tend to attract people to us who do not appreciate our worth, because we do not know it ourselves. When you have low self esteem you do not think you deserve better, and can sometimes feel you are not worthy of love. You then set the bar extremely low, instead of the height it should be. People with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not having sex in your relationship? Most people want to experience the connection to their partner, the intimacy and the passion of sex in their relationship on a regular basis. So why is aren&#8217;t you having sex? Are you or your partner ill? Have your fights gone unresolved to where you don&#8217;t connect sexually or one (or both) of you is withholding? Are either of you so unpleasant to be around? Always being negative, always critical, and never putting out any compliments or affectionate behavior? Do you take each other for granted and then expect that because you are ready they should be too? Do you say nasty things to your partner when they are not in the mood and give them a hard time? All of these things can contribute to a lack of sexual relations in your relationship. If you make your partner feel unattractive all week long but then on Saturday night you want them to feel turned on with no help from you, you are asking to be turned down. For men, the mood to have sex can strike immediately. For women, the mood develops slowly, and seems to be something men cannot and almost refuse [...]]]></description>

Really, what the hell does he need nude or sexy photos of you for anyway? If you want to take photos of yourself and show them to him yet keep them in your possession, fine, go ahead. But after hearing about every sex tape that a celebrity has been ashamed of, think about how many women in the everyday world have had the same thing happen to them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If it is really JUST about you saying your piece, then how your EX reacts, what he says, what he does, feels and thinks about it WOULD NOT MATTER TO YOU AT ALL. It would be all about YOU, and that is what closure is for, YOU. When his feelings, reactions (or lack of), emotions (or lack of), response (or lack of) have ANYTHING to do with it, then what you are seeking is NOT closure. What you are seeking is DIALOGUE. A continium. Closure is an ENDING. Not a continium. So be honest with yourself and the people in your life. Know what your real intentions are.]]></description>

He doesn't have time to do stuff you enjoy? Do it yourself or with someone ELSE. Dont rely on HIM for every social activity or hobby YOU enjoy. Show him you made YOURSELF a priority and he will too. If he doesnt, you will be too busy to notice, and wont settle for a man who only has time to squeeze you in when it is convenient for HIM.]]></description>
