Emotional Affair.? dah.!

When You Don't Have Anyone To Talk To And You've Been Alone For The Longest Time You Tend To Find Ways As To How You Could Relieve Yourself Of The Daily Emotional Baggages That Life Brings You. With The Technological Advancement That We Have Now A Days, Its Easy To Communicate With Other People..Even Anonymously. Companionship Is Just One Click Away. Some Of The Ways Would Be By Having Phone Pals..Text Mates...Constant Chats In The Internet With A Stranger. Pathetic As It May Sound. It Helps Relieve The Feeling Of Loneliness. And It's Quite Addictive You Know.

My Friends Can't Seem To Understand Why I Indulge Myself With These Things. I Sometimes Say That I Just Dont Have The Time To Mingle And Chat In Real Life. Which Is True, I Know My Friends Meant Well. They're Just Concerned That I Am Being Emotionally Involved With Someone I Havent Been With Yet.

But Is There Such A Thing As An Emotional Affair? Can You Really Love Someone Just By Talking To Him Over The Phone Or By Just Sending MMS/SMS Messages? Or By Just Simply Exchanging Words, Getting To Know Each Other Through Blog Entries And Looking At This Persons Profile, Pics And Media Playlist. (Just To Check If The Guy Is A Hopeless Romantic Or Not ;P )

Admittedly, I Was A Adamant For Such Stupid Actions. Hey! Can You Blame Me? After What I've Been Through I'd Rather Have A Voice For A Boyfriend Than Someone Who Can Hurt Me Physically.

But What Is The Cost Of Having One?

You Tend To Compensate The Physical Absence With Material Things Instead, Just To Show This Person How Much You Value Them In Your Life. So As You Can See It Can Be Quite Expensive You Know.

Since There Is A Lack Of Physical Attachment So To Speak. You Can't Stop Yourself From Thinking If The Needs Of This Person Is Being Satisfied. So Trust And Commitment Has Always Been An Issue. It's When You Go Crazy When This Person Doesn't Pick Up The Phone Or When He Failed To Reply On Your Messages.( You Even Send This Person A Load Thinking That The Reason Why He Failed To Respond Was Because He Doesn't Have One) You Tend To Get Paranoid..You Try To Think Of The Inevitable. You Then Question If This Person Is Really Sincere Towards You. What's So Ironic Is That The Reason Why You Went Into That Kind Of An Affair Is Because At First You Thouht It Somehow Relieves You Of The Emotional Stress When They Suddenly Become The Thing That You Are Trying To Relieve Yourself Off.

Making Lust Last..Unfinished..

Sharing lives is different from sharing dinners and long walks and weekends away. When you were dating the man you ultimately married, you were both acting much of the time (consciously or not), putting your best feet forward in order to be attractive to each other. When you were sick or had a bad headache, probably pretended it was no big deal. So did he. Now when your stomach is upset, you feel free to tell him you`re about to throw up. when you had an argument with a close sister, you might have told him, "it really was n`t the best day, but it`s getting better now that we`re together" He might had smiled, taken your hand, and said "Tell me what happened. I want to know" Now when he ask how you days was, you might just say, "Fine", and leave it at that. and he might be happy to leave it at that too. Nobody would write that kind of dialogue into a romantic movies - unless it was a sad serious one. But that`s how married people generally talk because no one can always act adoring or keep up an air of mystery while sharing the same space with his or her spouse, year after year. Here are the truths...

SEX FACT #1 Love is constant; passion needs recharging.

No surprise: Some people fall out of lust in seven days never mind seven years nor 17. Relaxing in our marriages and freeing ourselves from the pressure of trying to impress our partners has a predictable outcome: Our partners are not impressed.The magnetic spell we once cast on them being lift.

SEX FACT#2 Cozy is comfortable, but not sexy.

To extent that men and women become real to each other, they cease to be princes and princesses,gods and goddesses who inspire romantic fantasies or amorous worship. Since couples lucky enough to be emotionally genuine with each other share so many real moments, they need to pay special attention to creating magical ones because great sex requires magic

Can i be a coffee bean?

A daughter complained to her father about her life and how things were so hard for her.She did not know how she was going to make it,and wanted to give up.She was tired of all the fighting and struggling.It seemed as though in solving one problem,two more would arise.Her father,(a chef) took her to the kitchen.He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire.Soon the pots came to boil.In one he placed carrots,in the second he placed eggs,and the last he placed ground coffee beans.He let them sit and boil without saying a word.The daughter impatiently waited,wondering what he was doing.In about twenty minutes he turned off the burners.He fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl.He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl.Then he ladled the coffee out and poured it in a cup.Turning to her he asked."Darling,what do you see""Carrots,eggs,and coffee,"she replied.He brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots.She did and noted that they were soft.He then asked her to take an egg and break it.After pulling off the shell,she observed the hard-boiled egg.Finally,he asked her to sip the coffee.She smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.She humbly asked."What does it mean Father" He explained that each of them had faced the same adversity,boiling water,but each reacted differently.The carrots went in strong,hard and unrelenting.But after being subjected to the boiling water,they softened and became weak.The egg had been fragile.Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior.But after sitting through the boiling water,the insides became hardened.However,the ground coffee beans were unique.After they were in the boiling water,they had changed the water."Which are you,"he asked his daughter."When adversity knocks on yor door,how do you respond" Are you a carrot,an egg,or a coffee bean" How about you,Are you the carrot that seems hard,but with pain and adversity do you wilt and become soft and lose your strength, Are you the egg,which starts off with a changeable heart, Were you a fluid spirit,but after difficult times,have you bacome hardened and stiff.Your shell looks the same,but are you tough with a stiff spirit and heart,Or are you like the coffee bean, The bean changes the hot water,the thing that is bringing the pain.When the water reaches it’s peak temperature,it just tastes better.If you are like the bean,when things are at their worst,you get better and make things better around you.When people talk about you,do your praises to the Lord increase.When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest,does your worship elevate to another level.How do you handle adversity.Are you a carrot,an egg,or a coffee bean"

Your Diet was a ScAm

Sorry but not all diets live up to their hype. For example, one diet claimed that if you ate nothing but bananas you`d loose weight( the proof being that you never saw overweight monkey). it won`t work.(It will also make you very sick of bananas).

Others are good for short-term weight loss, but since they don`t burn fat, will only lead to loss water. Examples are so called cleansing diets or liquid diets. While they`re great for removing the toxins, you really can`t sustain it for more than a week without feeling sock or lightheaded.
What can you do:

* Don`t believe every diet you hear.

Ask how it`s supposed to help you loose weight and research to see its claims are actually scientifically supported.

* Take celebrity endorsements with a grain of salt.

Celebrities have personal trainers and plastic surgeons. If they`re thin, its not just because of that diet- hey you`d loose weight too if you had a fully equipped gym in your bedroom.

* Check if the diet meets the daily nutritional requirements.

While all diets require a certain control of calories if you aren`t getting enough food you will feel too weak to think or function properly. So you`ll either get sick or binge. But here`s the deal: Mother Natures programmed your body to store food in "lean times" Your poor eating habits have triggered this survival instinct,so anything you do eat goes straight to your hips.

* Be aware of any diet that demands that you buy a product.

They may work but it`s a huge financial investment and not easy to sustain. You`re better off with something that involves a lifestyle change. You can use a drink or a pill you can try a power bar or a miraculous patch but it`s just one of many activities. Ask your self: "Will i loose weight without this product? Can i replace it with something else if i see fit?" If the answer is a resounding no- then read the fine print. It may say, in so many words."You`ll gain everything back the moment you stop"

Nature or Nurture?

Analyzing Infidelity III


My friend said women are so emotional...and he includes me in that category. They try to approach things using their heart and not through common sense. Taking that into consideration...

I started rationalizing the science behind Infidelity. That's were the internet comes in. I browsed through numerous articles and sites which tackles how genetics and environment play an important role in this seemingly broad topic. And these are just some of the excerpts that I found really interesting.

"Scientists suspect that many genes (50-100) could be associated with sexual behavior. They believe genes on chromosomes 3, 7 and 20 could be directly involved.". So it all starts in the womb ladies and gentlemen.Infidelity is in our genes.Nature has gifted us an engineered genetic imprint to be unfaithful.Researchers even say that women are mostly carriers of these genes. Men tendencies to become promiscuous would really depend on the size of a man's testicles ( Really now?! lol ) Just to prove that genetics plays an important role in adulterous behaviors some studies show that sleeping disorders (apnea) and/or erratic leg movements are some signs of man's thirst for lust even on a subconscious level.

"Once DNA testing becomes cheap then before entering into more committed relationships many men and women will surreptitiously take DNA samples from each other and have the DNA tested for genetic variations that contribute to infidelity and to other behavioral tendencies as well."

Here's a thought..What if you did find out that your partner has a tendencies to be unfaithful would that stop you from being with this person?! This is just another one of man's stupid idea of "fixing- it"...it's more stupid than the day they created the prenuptial agreement. Duh?! Some radical scientist would even suggest "gene therapy" or screening of babies for possible acts of infidelity in the future will help lessen the risk of marital disputes, legal battles, and eventually broken families.

Which brings us to the topic of "nurturing"..

"Radical feminists go so far as to argue that a so-called predisposition toward motherhood or heterosexuality is actually learned behavior. Thus they seek to deconstruct the institutions of society, such as the family and the free market, in order to reconstruct them to promote the "correct" set of learned behaviors."

Environment really plays an important role. Particularly the one that we are initially exposed to...our home...our family.This justifies what my friend Paul and I are discussing. Promiscuity outside the boundaries of a relationship is brought about by our need to be loved and be secured. These outcomes were experienced during when we are still sucking our mother's breast or when our daddy was carrying us on his shoulders. Thus the term 'nurture". When our partners can't meet our expectations... the image set on our minds...the feeling of being loved and secured we then tend to look for it somewhere else.

Regardless of what our predilections or predispositions may be, and regardless whether the sin is nature or nurture driven there should always be a need to justify if what were doing is right or wrong. "Being predisposed does not mean one is a helpless preprogrammed robot with no moral choice in the matter." We should know better than that.
