I had a friend that is wild and adventurous. When she told me that she will be signing up on a hook up site that she heard about on radio, I was not surprised. She posted her profile and shortly afterwards she was bombarded with responses from men all over the world. She only replied to those men she was interested in, but there was one in particular that swept her off her feet. When she described her conversations with this guy as fun and light, which is what she was looking for and wanted in her life at the time.
Then they finally made arrangements to meet and have their first official date. She said it felt so right and that it was meant to be. The first date was nerve racking, yet exciting as she had never done online dating before or a had a "blind" date. The rest is history as they got engaged six months later and have been married for about 8 years now. They have two kids and living in the US. This is an example that there is no formula to relationships or how you will meet the "one".

Straight talk from women
Women should state expectations in relationships so that you know where you stand. Men are straight talkers and will tell you if they don't want to be serious. Sometimes women tend to make hints instead of stating what they want rather than making men assume what they want. Women know what they want, but for some reason they will not say what they want. A guy friend, once said he had asked a girl on a date and asked her where she would like to go to have dinner. This girl could not give a straight answer and so he took her to an Italian Restaurant because he felt like eating pasta. The girl complained that she didn't like pasta, but yet she couldn't recommend a place she would like to go to.
You shouldn't act unsure when you know what you want. What turns a men on is a woman who knows what she wants. You know his expectations, but why don't you express yours. This is in the same context that a woman would say that she is on a diet and eat a salad when out on a date. The relationship won't work because you're not being yourself. As a person, you have a favourite hang-out, restaurant or maybe you like theatre, but let him know.

Fall in love, again!
Love is the strangest thing. You can break up with your partner and believe you'll never love again. You despise the opposite sex for a few months. This is until one day you meet someone who sweeps you off your feet. You forget the pain of being hurt it's only something that you'll remember, but you won't remember how you felt when you were hurt.
When you fall in love again, you only embrace the love, the excitement and everything seems great. You feel on top of the world and that you are invisible. You don't have an appetite, you just want to talk about this person and you become generous. Your friends could ask to use your most expensive bag and you would give it to them.
You might find a colleague or boss who's cold, but when they find love. They become different they are friendly, kind, loving and they glow...and laugh a lot. People who are in love have a glow on their face, the way they walk, talk and dress is different. It spells L.O.V.E.

Cougars are a new trend!
A cougar is a woman who prefers to date younger men than men her age. These men are generally way younger than the woman. It is becoming a common trend for women to date younger men. These young men make these women feel good about themselves. This kind of behaviour is usually about power because the woman has control over the younger guy. Whereas an older man has the power and authority.
The younger guy makes the woman feel younger and sexier. The younger guys say what they like about older women is that they know what they want, confident, not self-conscience and have life experience. There was a show on Tyra Banks on cougasr, but the common thing about these women is they come from relationships with older men. They were being controlled and hurt so they decided to date younger men. These women are aware that these relationships are mainly entertainment and not long-term. There was one woman who was short and petite, she said she dated only younger guys because they didn't believe her real age.
On the contrary, there are celebrities who are married to younger men for example Mariah Carey. Whitney Houston is older than Bobby Brown even though they are now divorced. Demi Moore is dating a younger guy. This trend is not completely new, but now people are willing to talk about it.

Every day is a good day
Everyday has its challenges, a year has 365 days, a day has 24 hours. In those hours you can learn something and it might help you for the next day. Everyday is someone's birthday, someone proposes marriage, someone gives birth, someone gets a new job. Each day has its own activities and enjoy the moment as if it's your last.
People have diaries so that they can keep the different events happening in their lives, each day has its own events. Our lives revolve around events, everything passes today it's one thing and the next day another. Whether you are happy or sad, no day is wasted. Time waits for no man.

Our greatest strengths are our greatest weaknesses
I went on a trip with a friend overseas. It was her first time travelling abroad. We started encountering problems in our trip because she had read too much information on the net and heard stories from friends that she forgot we are not in SA in her familiar surroundings. The weakness in her strength is that she is outspoken, but she can be ignorant at the same time. The worse part of the trip, she thought she knew more than me when I had travelled abroad more than she had.
At some point, she got lost because of her stubbornness and being unable to say when she doesn't know something. It is important as a person to be willing to listen to others because they might know something that you don't know. There's always room to learn even if you are a subject expert, you will not know everything.

Feelings follow behaviour
I had a friend who was head over heels in love with this guy. When the relationship ended unexpectedly, she was distraught. She was certain this was the love of her life and this is the guy she would marry. She didn't imagine the relationship ending. After this, all she wanted to do was avenge what happened to her by breaking other guys' hearts.
Her behaviour was based on feelings of being hurt and she ended up hurting those around her. Her behaviour was changed by her feelings. Behaviour is sometimes based on feelings, it can be lack of a certain feeling. Some people abuse drugs from lack of a certain feeling and others abuse alcohol from lack of a certain feeling. How you feel will determine how you behave.
