Do you know this not only makes one feel and appear unattractive it also leaves them feeling out of control and unable to discern whether their choices are actually good ones?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Do you know that means a "needy" person is not in control of themselves or the kind partners they seem to repeatedly find themselves with? Do you know that the only type of person who is willing to accept a needy person is "another" needy person?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Do you know that means needy individuals invariably find themselves in unhealthy relationships that only disappoint and re-traumatise? So is there a way out of this trap? Absolutely!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The way out of this may both astonish and create scepticism so I ask that you be patient and open to what follows because it may be the only thing between where you are now and the possibility of ever realising a healthy and fulfilling relationship.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The way out is to a) realise that neediness is not a normal or natural human trait and b) to totally delete it from within.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now until you are able to realise the above it will be essentially impossible to accept that it is in fact the truth.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="color: #073763; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u>CLICK HERE FOR MATURE DATING</u></span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For instance the need for:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Love, Validation, Acceptance, Appreciation, Intimacy, Care taking, Understanding, Attention, Etc. are responsible for what many refer to as co-dependent relationship patterns.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Individuals who harbour such (and other related) needs are not "whole" rather they find themselves feeling deficient and "in need" of those qualities. The problem is that they have been made to believe that those qualities reside in and can only be supplied to them by others.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I think you can see this leaves them in a dependent and desperate position where they are constantly having to secure someone else's presence, attention, love, understanding, validation, etc. simply in order to feel momentarily secure and content.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The key word there is "momentary" because as soon as the other must attend to something else the person in question immediately returns to feeling insecure, anxious, etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So what does this person tend to do? Well, resort to desperate behaviours that often involve needy, controlling and manipulative strategies to get the other person back.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is what many refer to as "addictive" behaviours.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So how sustainable and attractive are such strategies?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So if I have convinced you that neediness is both destructive and self destructive and you would like to take the first step to becoming a free, whole and self sufficient person then simply place one hand over your Heart, and as if you are speaking from there simply repeat the following to yourself:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"I recognise that neediness in any form is destructive to me and my relationships and I want in my Heart to begin to wake up from this trance of neediness, become a free, empowered, emotionally independent, self sufficient and whole person."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now take a moment and reflect on how you are feeling inside. Although this is only an initial exercise in empowerment often individuals are surprised by feelings emerging from within that they can't explain. For instance one might begin to feel some of the following: an expansion in the chest area, feelings of peace, quiet, stillness, lightness, joy, relief, fullness, clarity, strength, resilience, etc.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you feel any of the above and you like this kindly affirm it to yourself again as if you are speaking from the Heart and it will grow stronger.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the experience of greater consciousness, wakefulness, presence, discernment and inner truth surging up within you. It is the source of clarity and self trust that supports one in all positive self respecting decisions.</span><br />

you've built your lives around each other and you thought it would last
forever. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Before you end a long-term relationship, make sure you've done all
you can to salvage it. In addition to solution-based communication
(rather than just complaining) and counseling.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Totally commit to doing all you can for physical and spiritual self-improvement, such as daily exercise, avoiding processed foods and sugar, and regular meditation.
This will help you realize the best in both of you, which may bring you
closer together. If not, you'll be able to part on friendlier terms. If
your partner is not willing to participate, it may be another
indication that it's over.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Next, be absolutely certain before you end a long-term relationship</b>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once you are certain it's over, here's how <b>not</b> to end a long-term relationship:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1) Cheat--If you do this it will just cause more conflict and everyone will blame the demise of your relationship on infidelity,
which is often only a symptom of the other problems. That aside, it's
interesting that few people ever blame the end of a long-term
relationship on strict monogamy.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
2) Delay ending the relationship because you don't want to hurt him. It will just be more difficult the longer you wait.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
3) Be a jerk, hoping she will dump you. This creates even more problems.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
4) Fail to communicate about the problems.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
5) Pretend everything is fine and then leave without any explanation.
This is cowardly, unfair to your ex, and will cause you negative karma.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">How to end a long-term relationship, when you are ready to make the announcement:</span></span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1) Choose the right time and place.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
2) Be direct, yet polite and compassionate, even if he is not. Avoid
criticizing and blaming. You don't want to create any negative karma in
the process of leaving (the act of breaking-up itself does not).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
3) Remind her that you've done all you can, you two are not compatible
enough for a relationship, it's best to move on, and that if you remain
together, it will prevent you both from finding people who are more
compatible.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now that you have a better idea about how to end a long-term
relationship, you can help your partner and yourself do so in the best
way possible.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> There can be times when ones relationships are free from problems and
then there can be moments when this is not the case. One could also be
in a position where this is the only thing they know and they have never
experienced relationships that have flowed.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Conflict</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Conflict is then something they have been accustomed to and while
conflict is not always negative, if it’s the only thing that one has
known, it is going to be. To live a life where there is only agreement
and an absence of conflict can sound appealing, but it doesn’t reflect
reality.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> No matter how close someone is or how long they have known each
other for, it doesn’t mean that they will always agree with each other.
Now, this doesn’t mean that it has to spiral out of control and turn
into abuse or violence.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><span><span><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK</a></b></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Responsibility</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Each person can own their experience as opposed to getting into
finger pointing and therefore, renouncing responsibility. When someone
says that they never experience conflict and everything is fine, they
could be telling the truth and at the same time, it could mean that
they’re living in denial.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Their problems are then being repressed and one is then out of touch
with themselves. In the short term this might be the easiest option,
but as time passes, the consequences could be severe.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Growth</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> When one takes responsibility for how they feel and are open to the
part that they may be playing in what is taking place, it will create
the opportunity for growth. This could relate to their growth as an
individual, the other persons growth and to the growth of the
relationship.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> And at the same time, the other person might not be open to looking
at what needs to change and so, the only person who benefits is oneself.
The other person resists the change and ends up staying as they are
and this is likely to mean that the relationship will come to an end.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Acceptance</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> However, while one can change themselves, they can’t change other
people. And if another person is not open to feedback or willing to talk
about what is creating conflict, one is going to need to accept it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> When feelings are involved, it is not easy to accept the fact that
another person’s is unwilling to change. And so it is only natural to
persist, even though nothing it is going to change. At least one can
walk away knowing that they played their part.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> The Opposite</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> To take responsibility for how one feels and to accept that one is
not just an observer of what is taking place in a relationship is a sign
of maturity and self awareness. As a result of this, there is then no
reason why one can’t experience relationships that are fulfilling and
life affirming.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> However, if one doesn’t own how they feel and believes they are just
observing what is taking place, then it is going to be a lot harder for
them to experience relationships that are fulfilling and life
affirming.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Two Sides</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> This can cause one to believe that they have it all together and
that the other person is the problem. And while this can stop one from
having to look in the mirror, it can cause them to stay stuck.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> It could also cause one to feel like a victim and that they have no
control when it comes to their relationships. One is then helpless and
there is no way for them to have the kind of relationship/s that they
want.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> More Than An Observer</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> If one continues to experience the same problems, then it is a sign
that they need to look within themselves. As human beings, we play a
part in what we experience and then our mind observes what is taking
place.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> And if one is out of touch with their body, they can end up
believing that they have played no part in what is showing up and that
they are simply the observers of their reality. But while the people
they meet are different, the person who keeps showing up is oneself.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Patterns</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> If one reflects on the kind of relationships they have had and are
still having, they might begin to notice a number of patterns. For
example, one might find that they attract people who are emotionally
unavailable, self centred and/or needy, among other things.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> When one has a pattern of attracting people are emotionally
unavailable, then there is a strong chance that they are not emotionally
available either. If one attracts people who are self centred, this
could be a sign that one doesn’t feel comfortable with their own needs
and believes that other peoples needs are more important.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> And the reason one attracts people who are needy is likely to be the
result of them being disconnected from their own neediness. The
neediness of others is then an externalisation of what they have denied
within themselves.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Blame</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> So blaming others might be something one is used to, but if the same
people keep showing up, it is going to be important for one to look
within themselves. This is likely to be more painful in the short term,
but the long term benefits will outweigh the short term pain.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Here one might need the assistance of a therapist or a healer, or
some kind of coach. Reading up about relationships will also give one
the chance to see why they attract the people they do and why the same
problems continually appear.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Holding on to a failed relationship in the guise that you want him
as a friend is in no way a wrong thing to do but the fact that you know
it cannot be salvaged and you still hold on to a man who probably has
moved on is an injustice to yourself and your love life. Every woman
hopes to meet a man who would understand her, appreciate her, love and
care for her for the rest of her life but this is not always the case.
For one reason or another, you have had a relationship breakdown and the
only option was for the both of you to go your separate ways. But out
of hope on a possible reconciliation and a makeup, you chose to remain
friends with your ex and have him hang around. There’s a danger in this
and most women are not even aware of what danger this possess to them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Having an ex or a past fling hanging around, hoping things could get
back to how they were is not entirely a bad idea, after all there is a
possibility that you could get back together and work out your
differences. But, sometimes, it would not work out like this. Rather
than looking up ahead and forging a better life for yourself, you’d
still hang on to what is left with this guy, hoping on an ever fading
hope of reconciliation. While you are at it, you may be missing your
opportunity of meeting a better guy- your Mr. Right. Because you still
have this person around, your chance of meeting your Mr. Right becomes
diminished. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You need to understand that obviously your ex may not be
coming back and no matter the strategies you use, it is over between the
both of you completely. You have to let him go and give other people a
chance. Yes, you may have truly loved your ex, you gave your soul, body
and heart to him and because of the deep affection you had for him, you
have found it difficult to let go. It is time to start breaking off
those bonds otherwise you would be stuck with loving someone who would
never be with you.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Past flings and Ex’s should be confined to a phase of your life –in
the past. You need to get back to living your life and enjoying it. Get
out and do things that would clear your mind off these people. Start
chasing your career if you weren’t and if you were, it’s time to take it
to the next level. Spend time at the gym, Engage in community service,
visit the poor and orphaned and give them support. Get busy doing things
that would distract your mind from the thoughts of these failed
relationships. It is even when you are doing these that your Mr. Right
would come around.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Bear in mind that Mr. Right is not going to be Mr. Perfect. You need
to be cautious so you don’t repeat the mistakes of your previous
relationships. You know the things you did wrong then or tolerated from
your ex then. You wouldn’t want a repeat this time. So set boundaries so
you both know what you want out of the relationship. Now that you have a
better experience, you are better suited to handle your love life.</span><br />

nothing wrong with being single, or having a non-traditional
relationship.</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> No matter what your love life status, here are some love life tips you can use year-round to make the most of it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">1) Accept how your love life is right now. This isn’t easy, so you’ll
have to repeatedly remind yourself, especially when it seems like your
circumstances couldn’t get worse. Once you accept being single or your
relationship as it is, it will be easier to cherish the good things
about your situation, and sometimes that will encourage change for the
better.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">2) Accept that you don’t need someone else to make you happy. You are
all you need, believe it or not. Once you understand this, a
relationship becomes an added bonus rather than a narcotic drug you
can’t live without. Love addicts experience the crash and yearning for
more far more often than the high. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">3) Learn to not care about what other people think about your love
life. It’s really none of their business. Do what makes you happy, even
if it’s not the norm. If you don’t, you’ll have regrets at the end of
your life. </span></span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">4) Don’t fall for the “one and only soul mate” lie. Some love life
experts claim to have the key to finding “the one,” “your twin soul,”
and other fanciful love life goals. We’ve found through our years of
empirical research that everyone has many soul mates, and most of them
are not meant to result in a life-long, blissful relationship. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">5) Don’t fall for the “together forever” fantasy. Sure, it’s
possible, and in rare cases couples do grow old together without great
suffering and sacrifices that make them die inside. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Unfortunately, most
couples who commit at a very young age find that they’re not compatible
enough for a traditional relationship after five, ten, or twenty years.
Couples in prior generations had to remain together due to sociological
and economical reasons. Today, singles
and couples have more options, and that’s a good thing. The length of a
relationship isn’t important; what you learn and the love you give is. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">6) Don’t beat yourself up if you don’t have an ideal relationship,
the type of love life that some celebrities seem to have as described in
the media. Like an airbrushed photo, what they present to the world and
the reality might be two different things. In fact, in some cases, you
might be shocked to know the truth about the relationship. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">7) Consider karma and fate. Even if you use your free will to do all
you can to improve your love life, and you should, things won’t always
go as you hope due to the ever-present laws of karma and fate. This
doesn’t mean you’re being punished, but it might mean that you’re going
through a learning phase now for a more wonderful love experience later. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">8) Lighten up and relax! It’s so easy to get caught up in your
routine and be stressed out from the responsibilities of life. But if
you don’t take “me time” to relax, rejuvenate, and become centered,
whether it’s through meditation or other ways, it’s more difficult to present your best, beautiful self to your partner or a new potential love interest.</span></span><br />

<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Be
Positive! It is essential to be positive in your approach to online
dating and in how you represent yourself. Negativity is a turn off, so
in your profile talk about things you love not hate, and how excited you
are to be joining a <span class="IL_AD" id="IL_AD2">online dating service</span>, not how nervous or apprehensive you maybe.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Be Unique! There will be thousands of profiles out there; many will
be very similar and typical. Make yours stand out from the crowd, don't
worry about putting the odd person off, you'll attract much more
interest through your individuality and uniqueness.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Use Examples – When describing yourself, don't just say that you
like films, say what films you like. If you like reading, what books do
you like? If you describe yourself as funny, be funny in your <a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">online dating</a> profile, don't just claim it.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Honesty – There may be a big temptation to embroider the truth or
even just make things up. You don't need to, you are interesting and
exiting enough as you are. Plus if a relationship does happen then these
lies may be hard to cover up and come back to bite you.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Photo – Photos are integral to dating websites, despite other
temptations you should pick a good, but honest and fairly recent photo
of yourself, doing otherwise will just cause complications later. Let
the photo show the kind of person you are, if your sporty why not use a
picture of you playing a sport?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Relax – One of the biggest advantages of online dating sites is that
there is little pressure. Unlike meeting face to face you don't need to
be quick witted or confident to impress. You can take your time in
producing an impressive profile that says everything you want about
yourself, you can make your perfect first impression.</span></span></li>

Are you ready for mature dating?<br />
According to an online suite 101 article, there are many benefits of age
that may naturally be implemented in mature dating. Opinions to the
contrary, this isn't necessary a bad thing. Many Seniors take time to
explore their talents or simply to observe more deeply than perhaps they
have ever observed in their lives.<br />
Take time to walk in beautiful gardens or to listen to music as you sit and talk softly.<br />
<br />
Some questions that will revel your date's interests and personality:<br />
<br />
</span></span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">What is your most treasured possession and why?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Which is the last book you read?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Which is the one job in the world that you would love to do?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Do you believe a cup is half empty or half full?</span></span></li>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It seems that some people are born with confidence, while others
struggle with even the quickest interactions with strangers. Some people
had confidence at one point in their lives and then lost it, but there
is no reason to let low self-confidence get you down, as there are
plenty of ways to rebuild your confidence.</span><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span></b><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Work On Your Appearance</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to be in the shape of a
bodybuilder or have the face of a movie star in order to get pretty
women. Regardless of what you look like, there is someone out there who
will find you incredibly attractive. However, many people who wonder how
to build confidence are having a difficult time talking to others
because they do not feel good about themselves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">With that said, one of the first steps in your mission to build
confidence is to work on your appearance. You should not do this for
women; you should do it for yourself! If you feel self-conscious about
your weight, try dieting or exercising to shed a couple of pounds. You
don't have to lose a lot of weight, even a few pounds will make you
instantly feel better about yourself. If your clothing makes you feel
like a slob, try going out and buying a couple of new outfits. They do
not have to be expensive or fancy, just something that makes you feel
good about yourself. If you feel good about your appearance, you will
feel more confident when you are talking to others.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Try Talking to Strangers</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The next step in building confidence is making conversation with
complete strangers. You shouldn't start with women that you are
interested in -- instead, start with a friendly guy at a restaurant or
an older lady at a gas station. Talking to these people, even briefly,
will show you that people aren't going to bite your head off just
because you start a conversation with them. In fact, you might make a
few friends along the way, and you are bound to at least enjoy a couple
of fascinating conversations with others.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Start Small With Women</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If the idea of talking to a beautiful woman makes your tongue
automatically twist into a knot, you should start out small. A simple
"hi, how are you?" is usually sufficient. It is rare that the girl will
ignore you and if she does, she probably isn't a girl that you really
want to talk to anyway. You will slowly start to see that these women
will typically start a short conversation with you, which will instantly
help to boost your confidence.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Give Non-Threatening Women a Chance</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If talking to the really beautiful women that you see is still
intimidating, you can start by talking to a few girls that you see that
are a bit more normal-looking. You will not be as intimidated to
approach a girl who is average-looking, but you will still learn just
how easy it really is to initiate a conversation with a girl. Not to
mention, you might find that that average girl is actually incredibly
interesting, and you could meet the perfect match during this stage.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Don't Let Setbacks Let You Down</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When going through the <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="nofollow">how to build confidence</a>
steps, you will inevitably meet a few rude people. These people may say
something rude to you, or they may ignore you completely. Being shot
down in this manner can cause plenty of guys with self-confidence issues
to clam back up, but don't let this happen to you. It is inevitable
that there are rude people in this world, but these people are probably
not people that you want to make friends with anyway. Don't let it get
you down, and don't hold it against others -- there are still plenty of
beautiful, exciting and friendly people in this world for you to talk
to.</span>Mature Dating Over 40http://www.blogger.com/profile/07006749679849426744noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690664909226115820.post-45341241804146630982016-07-20T03:21:00.001-07:002016-07-20T03:21:19.370-07:00The Art of Mature Dating<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Are
you afraid of getting older and still having no partner in your life?
Well, you need not worry much. Today, age is not a factor for anybody.
You can also start dating just like other young people around you. Life
has changed a lot for everybody all over the world, so does the
definition of dating and relationship. Companionship has no age limit;
you can start off anytime you want. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It
may happen when you were so busy in you life that you never realized
that you are missing out many thing. But now, with the help of so many
professionals and trusted online dating sites, anyone can find their
life partners easily now. As youngsters, we feel awkward when we go out
for date. We bother so much about what to wear, how to appear and how
to talk to the person. But with matured age, we started talking about
everything at ease. Now we know what we are, what we have to talk about
and how to understand the person sitting next to us. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Romance
has various colors, and it never ends with matured age. In fact, the
more matured we get the more colors we start experiencing. We now
understand the need of our lives, the vibes of each other. Here, we face
lesser trauma and things like infatuation. Mature dating can be very
helpful to choose the right one for our life. Youngsters sometimes fail
to choose the right one and they think that relationships will never
going to work out for them.<br /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Matured
age comes up with many things. You now have financial security and
background which can give you confidence. You have come across a lot of
people and you surely know how to start off a conversation. What you two
can converse about, how to ask questions and to know about the person's
life, background and past if needed. Also it is important to cross
check the details and not to disclose everything about your personal
life on the very first date. Though, the youngsters usually make these
mistakes, matured dating is different than that.<br /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You
can also take help from various matchmaker sites. If you search on the
website you will get thousands of matchmaker sites. But register with
the trusted sites only. Also, make one account for this dating purpose
only. So that you can keep a track of the people you are keeping in
touch with. There are innumerable fraud people out there, so when you
are building up your profile make sure it is perfect, no extra
information is provided there.<br />Remember you are matured and a bit
older than most of the people looking for a date. This is not because
you didn't get somebody in your life or things didn't work out well for
you in the past. When other people were busy in their love life and
relationships you were building up your professional life and now when
you are matured enough and also have some time for your personal life,
you want to find a partner for dating and long term relationship. So,
take the direct way to approach and build up a health and loving
relationship.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Jealousy can be a really big obstacle when two partners are surviving
an affair if they don't know how to manage and process this emotion.
There are some healthier ways to process jealousy so you can prevent any
problems in your efforts.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You
may carry these emotions into a new relationship, which can be
difficult to manage and overcome, making it difficult for both you and a
new partner to move forward. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here are 3 important tips for managing your response to jealousy:</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Tip #1 Manage your physical response to jealousy. When you are
surviving an affair jealousy is an emotion that is stronger than ever
and you will feel it in different ways. When you feel like jealousy is
about to explode inside you, in this moment you must stop and take a
deep breath and try to get control over your emotions.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Even if jealousy is not justified you still need to do this. You have
to remember that showing out your feelings in an aggressive way will
cause more problems and surviving an affair will become much harder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You have to stop those feelings before they grow or it
will be almost impossible for you to make the choice not to act in
an inappropriate way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Tip #2 Take a look inside your mind and find out why you had this
response. When jealousy is starting to appear and take control of your
feelings, you tend to look at your partner's actions because you blame the
other person for making you feel jealous.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But in fact you are the one who is feeling jealous and those feelings
were born inside of you so you have to redirect your attention inside
yourself and look for what is hurting you. When surviving an affair
there are a lot of reasons that make you feel hurt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You have to express your feelings to your partner especially if you
are the one who is having jealous feelings through conversation and
communication, because these are the best weapons for surviving an affair.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Tip #3 Use communication to express your feelings. You need to talk
with your partner about your feelings that make you hurt instead of
having an episode of bad jealousy. Also, you have
to talk to your partner about those specific facts that are making you
feel jealous and try so solve that situation.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you are not accusing or blaming your partner of cheating it
is more likely that they will respond to your pain in a more
caring manner. This will help your efforts of surviving an affair, as
you and your partner find ways to move forward together.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK </a></b></span> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Any
new relationship can be affected by things in the past, and effective,
honest communication is the best way of resolving and working things
out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />
Is your jealousy tearing your relationship apart? Are you jealous of
every person in your spouse's life that came before you? Do you have a
hard time trusting your partner because of your past history of being
betrayed? Dr. Phil has advice if jealousy is threatening your future. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ask yourself why you are choosing this behavior. Everybody has a
way of being in the world. Is your way being jealous, accusatory,
highly monitoring and smothering? Why are you choosing that? </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Is it because you have a history of being cheated on? There's an
expression: "What I fear, I create." Are you testing your partner until
he just finally fails? If you fear that somebody is going to cheat on
you, you may just push him to a point where someone else may grab his
attention. Imagine if someone else treated your partner with dignity and
respect, didn't challenge his integrity every minute of every hour, but
was in fact accepting and peaceful and harmonious. These are things
that really matter. You need to worry about what you're creating. Ask
yourself: Are you responsible for the previous relationships in which
you were betrayed? Did you run those previous partners off with your
jealous behavior?</span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Jealousy is a poorly disguised need for power and control.
Jealous people are tyrannical, controlling, domineering and completely
insensitive to the impact of their actions on their partner. Are you
getting a power trip off of this? Is the payoff that you keep your
partner on a short leash and completely under your control? </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Choose to respect your partner and make some different choices.
You have more power in your love, respect, personality and magnetism
than you do in control. You can't <i>make</i> him come home, but you can make him <i>want</i> to come home. </span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b> </b></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK</a></b></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Advice for partners of jealous people:</b></span>
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You teach people how to treat you. It may be working for your
partner to be jealous because you are paying him/her off. They get a
control fix every time you reassure them, every time you answer the
phone to report on your whereabouts. If he/she calls you 10 times to
check in on you, answer the phone once to offer information, then turn
it off. Stop reinforcing their behavior.</span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Although you don't want to pay your partner off for insecure or
controlling behavior, you should be an open book. People who have
nothing to hide, hide nothing. Respect your partner enough to let
him/her know where you are, when you will be back, and what you're
doing. </span></li>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b></b>If you stop to
think about it, you know the difference between those who make smart,
considered choices, and those who seem to let life push them around. You
probably know people who succeed despite difficulties and bad breaks,
and people who seem to have everything handed to them, but still can’t
get it together. You know people whose lives seem full of satisfaction
and accomplishment, and others who don’t feel that they have achieved
anything worthwhile, so their lives are full of regret and complaints.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Cooperating and being congenial with the people you care about
makes your relationships run more smoothly (at least on the surface).
However, when you relinquish your power to decide for yourself, your self-esteem suffers, and you feel out of control and unimportant, even in your own life. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK</a></b></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> As you reflect on the people you know, can you see the
difference between those who know how to make good decisions, and those
who aren’t sure what to do? None of us is completely confident with
every choice we make in life, but those who understand that their
decisions will create their outcome and choose accordingly feel more
secure more of the time.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">As a mature adult, you are approaching the time of greater
freedom and greater responsibility toward yourself. Because you’ve lived
long enough to master the basic skills of life, you may be wondering
what else there is. For many in mid-life, going through days focused on
material things and daily chores no longer seems to be sufficient. At
this point, people begin to search for a different kind of meaning.
“What is my life about?” they ask. “I have most everything I want. Why
doesn’t it feel like enough?”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Understanding the
important issues of this phase of your life, and being prepared to
re-evaluate your goals, find meaning, and make new choices are the tasks
you face now. How you meet these challenges will make the difference in
how satisfying and rewarding the rest of your life will be. From
experience, you know you cannot control everything that happens to you.
But you can control the your reaction and response to the events around
you. If you can think clearly despite changes, surprises and unplanned
circumstances, you will make good choices, and succeed in all the ways
you want to. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">You can reorganize and restructure your goals to take care of
yourself physically, emotionally, financially and socially, no matter
what your life circumstances have brought you. This is your opportunity
to make the most of your life, to bring long-awaited dreams into reality, and to create meaning and satisfaction for yourself.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
<br />
An emotionally abusive marriage consists of a victim and an abuser. Dr. Phil has something to say to both.<br />
<br />
<b> </b></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>The Abuser<br />
</b><br />
</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have you thought about how your actions truly affect your
partner? Even when you stop the abuse, the pain continues because you've
trampled on your loved one's heart and spirit. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dr. Phil defines an abuser as both a coward and a bully. You
choose to abuse where it is safe, in a place where you feel loved and
protected. Would you do it in the workplace where you might get fired or
in a social situation where others might get insulted? </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You need to understand that respect is commanded, not demanded.
If you think degrading and belittling your partner commands respect,
you're wrong. You are simply demanding by imposing fear. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">All abusers have excuses, says Dr. Phil. While the excuses vary,
one principle remains: You are abusing instead of being constructive. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you want to recover — for yourself and your partner — you
need to tell yourself: "I'm not going to take this from me anymore." Sit
down with your partner, look into his/her eyes, and apologize for the
wounds you've inflicted over time. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Healing is a process. Rescuing your relationship will take patience and persistence. </span>
</li>
</ul>
<br />
<h2>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK</a></b></span></span></span></h2>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
<br />
<b>The Victim</b><br />
<br />
</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Take responsibility. You have played a role in setting up the
relationship this way, and you must play a role in changing it. Telling
your partner that the treatment is unacceptable is not enough. Your
actions speak louder than words, so you need to make two bold moves:
Change your own routine or behavior, and tell your partner you will no
longer take the abuse. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Dr. Phil refers to a saying: "There are no victims, only
volunteers." Don't go along to get along. Peace at any price is no peace
at all. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Relationships are always up for renegotiation. You need to sit
down with your partner, look him/her in the eyes, and tell him/her that
you are taking a stand. You will not stay in the relationship if the
abuse continues. From there, begin to negotiate. Figure out how both of
you can take strides to make the marriage work. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Watch yourself to make sure you don't fall back into the victim role. </span></li>
</ul>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br />Is control a problem in your relationship? <br /><strong><br /></strong>
</span><div class="centralColumn">
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Start taking responsibility for your actions. It's time to examine how your behavior might enable your controlling partner. <br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Negotiate boundaries with your spouse — not when you're arguing, but
during "peace time." Agree to have a consequence if these boundaries
are crossed. For example, if your controlling partner starts to dominate
a discussion, call a time-out. Revisit the conversation only when
you're ready. <br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">If you're being pushed to your limit every day and you think about
giving up, you will someday cave in. Giving up cheats you and your
partner if you haven't both made a concerted effort to improve your
relationship. <br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ask yourself, "What is it costing me to be in this relationship?" If
the answer is your dreams, identity, or dignity, the cost is too high. <br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Controlling people often participate in emotional extortion: "Agree
with me, or else...." For the good of your relationship, sometimes it's
best to agree to disagree. <br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Look at all of your options. You don't have to engage in explosive
arguments when dealing with a controlling partner. Refuse to participate
when your partner is trying to control you. <br /></span>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Suffering in silence isn't love. By not dealing with a controlling
partner's behavior, you're only enabling it to continue, and are
therefore cheating the relationship. </span></li>

<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfgwHHCVkH1Jt7PQVdCqjJEFe2cJ5vBj7HuGfX9TLgrxcQE4zTTmMEJryZSqO4JK_2tJ7iTnns4vyZzl2kIHvNrT-nd_eArSsCmE_dpck8pKdnGp6HXRwx8jykIvxmlQlip0XkRyG3zpU/s1600/20141023.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfgwHHCVkH1Jt7PQVdCqjJEFe2cJ5vBj7HuGfX9TLgrxcQE4zTTmMEJryZSqO4JK_2tJ7iTnns4vyZzl2kIHvNrT-nd_eArSsCmE_dpck8pKdnGp6HXRwx8jykIvxmlQlip0XkRyG3zpU/s1600/20141023.jpg" /></a>It
is very difficult to sit with a group of your friends and hear their
stories and experiences that are taking place in their relationships -
especially if you’re on your own. It will make you look at your life and
wonder just <b>how it is that you’re still single</b> while
all of your friends your age are married or at least in serious
relationships. You start to feel down, depressed, frustrated and wonder
if you’ll ever have what they do.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial","helvetica",sans-serif;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK</a></b></span></span></span></span><br />
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Have you ever thought that this could be something that you’ve brought on yourself? There are actually<b> fears that can keep you single and you may not even know that you have them</b>. </div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
You
may be afraid that you will be single forever. This is something that
many single people fear whether they admit it or not. It usually happens
when you’ve had a few, or more than a few, unpleasant or seriously
awful relationships, especially in a row. Somewhere in the back of your
mind you’re thinking that you may NEVER have that just right
relationship. This can really worry you if it’s later in your life than
you thought you’d be single. <b>Men can tell when a woman is desperate and scared to be on her own.</b>
Sensing this can change the way a man feels toward you. So, you see,
holding onto this fear that you’ll never meet the Mr. Right may very
well push him away when he DOES show up.<br />
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Another fear that can keep you single is <b>the fear of losing your man</b>.
Most people are on their best behavior when they first meet. However,
there are some guys that act creepy right out of the gate by assuming
too much about where your relationship is going. They may even start
getting possessive and/or controlling. Women that exhibit this same type
of behavior with men after only a few dates will scare those men away.
So when you start worrying about losing the guy before you ever really
connect with him, it can make you act in ways that, while totally
uncharacteristic of you, can cause the end of this relationship before
it even starts.<br />
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
One of the top fears that might keep you single forever is that <b>he will turn out to be just like your ex</b>.
This is pretty easy to understand. If your last relationship ended
badly, you need to take enough time to get emotionally under control
again. When you give it enough time, then your next man will get a fair
chance without you comparing him to your ex. Breaking the emotional ties
to your past, and the fear associated with it, helps you move away from
the past without taking any old problems or patterns into the new
relationship you’re trying to get off the ground.<br />
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
Be very honest about whether or not you have these fears. Only by admitting to them can you start getting rid of them. </div>
<div class="kmgmainbody" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It’s easy for some of the smartest people to lose all sight of common
sense when they're being reeled in by a catfish: an online imposter who
tries to win your sympathy — and your love — by creating an elaborate
scheme. Award-winning technology reporter Kurt Knutsson, known around
the country as Kurt the CyberGuy, shares his top ten reality checks to
see if you’re being baited by a catfish. <br /><br />If you identify with at least two of the below scenarios, Knutsson says you could be falling prey to a scam artist. <br /><br /><b>1. Dumb Date Data</b>
<br />Physical descriptions need to be proportional. For example, someone
who is 6-feet tall usually does not weigh 90 lbs. Look for any other
descriptions that don’t add up to the profile photo.
<br /><br /><b>Tip:</b> Ask them to take a photo holding a unique phrase or
their own name on it and send it to you. Ask to have a live video talk
using Skype or Facetime. Most of today’s smartphones, tablets and
laptops come equipped with a built-in camera and/or video. Someone
reluctant to speak on live video, claiming shyness or that they can’t
find a camera, should be a red flag.
<br /><br /><b>2. Profile Picture Test
</b><br />Professional photos are a red flag. Look for amateur photos — and more than one.
Tip: Use a <a href="http://www.google.com/mobile/goggles/#text" target="_blank">Google Goggles</a>
search on your phone to see if the photo they’ve shared with you can be
spotted elsewhere online. If you see it shown with a watermark or in
other settings like modeling websites, it’s likely a fake.
<br /><br /><b>3. Become a Photo Detective
</b><br />“This just takes it to the next level,” Knutsson says.
Look for detail in photos — wedding rings, locations, activities, time
of day, how they are dressed — to see if it matches. Someone claiming
that a photo is from a July 4th fireworks party, who is dressed in a fur
coat, in daylight, might be a dead giveaway that someone is lying.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /><b>4. Cut and Paste Profile Alert
</b><br />Introductory letters on dating websites are often copied by
catfish scammers. See if the same information appears in other places or
has been copied from someone else by searching for it online.
Out-of-country scams often slip up here, revealing inconsistent
information such as landmarks and cultural events that don’t add up. For
example, someone claiming to be from St. Louis who isn’t familiar with
the iconic Gateway Arch when questioned is likely a liar.
<br /><b><br />5. Spelling and Grammar Fail
</b><br />Hear the words when you read their writing, and check their
spelling and grammar. A line that sounds like it could be from someone
in a far-off country but portraying themselves to be in your same city
will usually have a local dialect misfire.
<br /><b></b></span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /><b>6. Derailing You from the Dating Site
</b><br />Red flags should be raised if, right off the bat, they want to
get you to instant message or email, taking you off of the dating site
where you originally met.
<br /><br /><b>Tip</b>: Always create and use a unique email address that is
different than your personal and professional addresses when setting up
a dating website profile.
<br /><br /><b>7. Too Serious, Too Soon</b><br />Watch out for someone rushing
things. A catfish usually makes the first move, often out of left field
and sometimes creates a bogus, dreamy profile that sounds like the
ideal mate you’ve described in your
own dating desires. They play on your sympathy and strike when you are
the most vulnerable — caught up in the romance and emotional.
<br /><br /><b>8. Ask a Lot of Questions</b><br />Inquire about where they are
from, and verify landmarks and spellings of cities online. Blatant
errors could mean it’s a scam. Catfishers like to ask you a lot of
questions, but seldom let you go deep into their lives, coming up with
excuses about why they are reluctant to offer more personal information
about themselves. For example, they might say, “I’ve been hurt before by
telling too much too soon,” which actually turns the tables on you to
prove that you can be trusted — Red flag!
<br /><br /><b>9. You Are Not an ATM Machine
</b><br />If they ask for money, lock them out of your life. Shut off
communication immediately, and close all open doors if you have a hint
that it is a sympathy scam. Although most catfishers are not after
money, this one should be a wake-up call to a scam.
<br /><br /><b>10. Facebook Fakers
</b><br />At this point, if someone has no Facebook page, but they are sophisticated enough to create an online dating profile, be warned.
Also look out for potential fake Facebook pages.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />Signs of a fake
Facebook profile can include the fact that the Facebook page was started
near the same time that a dating profile elsewhere was established, if
few photos are posted, or if there are no people tagged in their photos
to show a connection in a relationship. <br /><br />
If they are on Twitter, read through historic tweets to see if the story
they tell matches up to the same the person you are prospectively
dating. Like Facebook, Twitter accounts created around the
same time as dating profiles should be treated with caution.</span></span>Mature Dating Over 40http://www.blogger.com/profile/07006749679849426744noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690664909226115820.post-9487140304972599892016-01-27T03:40:00.001-08:002016-01-27T03:41:01.909-08:00Warning Signs You May Be Dating a Married Man<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">You met in a bar. "If you are meeting for the first time in a
bar, that doesn't bode well. So many married men hang out in bars hoping
to get lucky," Sarah says.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He has an indentation or tan line on his ring finger. When
you first meet him, look for an obvious sign of a wedding ring that was
just removed.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He pays for dinners and drinks in cash. This could be because he doesn't want a paper trail or credit card bust from his wife.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He has more than one cell phone and won't give you both
phone numbers. "One is for his wife, and one is for his secret life,"
Sarah says. Also note if he always goes outside to take private calls
when he's with you.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He tends to call you while at the store, walking the dog,
getting gas " places he's dashed out to in order to call. "These are
places where he's escaped the family home to go out and call you, his
secret lover," she says.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He doesn't reply to your texts for hours and is not
available to talk freely in the evenings. He may ask you not to call
after certain times. "It's because he's at home with his family and
can't answer," Sarah says.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He's always busy on the weekends and doesn't want to make
plans for less than 10 days time. He can't be spontaneous when he has a
family to juggle.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He doesn't introduce you to his friends.
</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He finds excuses for why he can't invite you back to his
place. "My main message to women out there who might fall for these
things is to find a reason to go back to his place. If he won't take you
home, there's a reason why," Sarah says. </span></span></li>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">As
we travel through our life's journey, many
relationships will come into our lives. Some of them will be
wonderful and long lasting; others, unfortunately, may be short
term or unhappy. </span></span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Do
you tend to attract more negative relationships than positive?
Though we strive to develop good, solid, and happy
relationships, it seems we sometimes end up with
exactly the opposite. Wouldn't you love to attract
more positive relationships? The good news is, you
can!</span></span><br />
</div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><u>Try some of these simple tips to enjoy more positive relationships in your life:</u></span></span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>1. Patience.</b>
Wonderful relationships don't occur overnight. They
take time to nurture and develop into something that's
long lasting. To allow these relationships into your life,
you must have the patience to let them grow. </span></span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">When
you begin a relationship that you perceive as
being a positive one, don't rush it. You may be
very pleased to see what develops down the road.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>2. Believe that you're deserving of it.</b>
Be positive and avoid negative feelings or
perceptions about yourself. Know that you deserve to
have happy, stable relationships in your life. </span></span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
If you begin to think negatively, you must turn
these negative thoughts around immediately. Clear
your mind and regain your
self-confidence.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
Remember, positive attracts positive. When you
think positive thoughts, you'll be rewarded with
positive results. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
You'll ultimately attract positive relationships
into your life with the positive energy you're
giving off to others. So be a good example of the
friend or partner you look to attract!</span></span></li>
</ul>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>3. Be true to yourself and others.</b>
If you're not true to yourself, whether you believe
it or not, others will sense this. Don't try to be
something that you're not; this is a negative way of
portraying yourself to others. </span></span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
As mentioned before, positive attracts positive,
but negative attracts negative as well. Show
others your true self, including your flaws.
They'll appreciate your open and willing heart
and be able to form a strong bond with you more
easily. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Be
genuine to others and allow them to see your true
feelings and personality. Trying too hard to act
like someone else could lead to embarrassment for
you.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>4. Don't take relationships for granted.</b>
Remember to always give thanks for the valuable
relationships in your life. They may not be as
numerous as you'd like, but rather than complaining,
be thankful for the ones you have now and have had in the past. </span></span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
By professing your gratitude genuinely, you'll
have an easier time attracting future positive
relationships. </span></span></li>
</ul>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>5. Be honest.</b>
If you're in a negative relationship right now, that
will tend to keep positive relationships from coming into
your life. Be honest with yourself and others. Make a conscious
decision to either improve that relationship or end it. </span></span><br />

<div class="post-header">
</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: 18pt;">1: The Site DOES Matter</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The
site you choose to join does matter! Each site will potentially have
different types of people possessing different relationship goals and
it’s important to know this before you sign up for the site. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: 18pt;">2: People DO Misrepresent Themselves</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">I
know it’s difficult to fathom that some people lie but it’s true.
These lies can range in severity from over-exaggerations and twenty year
old photographs to flat-out lies about their relationship status (you’d
be surprised how many singles really aren’t). You should approach
online dating no differently than you would if a stranger walked up to
you in a bar and offered to buy you a drink. Don’t rush into anything.
A healthy dose of scepticism combined with a balance of expectation and
reality will not only help to ensure your safety but will also increase
your chance of success!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: 18pt;">3: Different Places, Different Paces</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">It’s
important to keep in mind that everyone has different lives outside of
dating. Be patient and understanding that some people don’t check their
online dating email every day and you may not receive a reply right
away. I always recommend taking the high road when it comes to
communicating online. If you aren’t receiving responses in the amount
of time that you’d expect don’t disregard the contact. Take it as a
sign that they may not be that interested, they simply have a slower
pace or that the timing just isn’t right and move on. You just never
know who may come back around when the timing is better, but you’ll
never know if you burn those bridges.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: 18pt;">4: Perfect on Paper Isn’t Always Perfect</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">It’s
important to understand that it’s ok to not be into someone for reasons
that you can’t define. Chemistry can be something that’s there right
away and it can also be something that takes some time to develop. In
either case, if you’re not feeling the spark when you feel you should
don’t drag things out. You deserve a match that deserves you! As
always, a healthy dose of balance between expectation and reality is
important.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<b><span style="font-size: 18pt;">5: Some People Won’t Respond</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Online
dating is much more anonymous than meeting people in the real world.
If you were approached by someone in public and they said “hi”, how
would it look if you ignored them? This standard does <b>not</b> apply
to online dating. You should prepare yourself to not hear from
potential matches that you reach out to. Try not to take this
personally; it doesn’t mean that you’re undesirable it simply means they
are not interested. I would also advise against highlighting people in
this area. It makes you look like an idiot and will only provide you
with temporary vindication. Besides, you never know how busy someone
is, or if your paths will cross in some other way and burning bridges is
rarely a good idea.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you've lost a significant other, then it's time to stand up, brave
your heart and continue a course that has long been forgotten: DATING.<br />
Granted, it should be understood that age does not necessarily equate to
maturity, but most seniors (hopefully) have come to view ideas and
events differently than they viewed them in their 20s or 30s.</span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b><br />
Are you ready for mature dating?</b><br />
According to an online suite 101 article, there are many benefits of age
that may naturally be implemented in mature dating. Opinions to the
contrary, this isn't necessary a bad thing. Many Seniors take time to
explore their talents or simply to observe more deeply than perhaps they
have ever observed in their lives.<br />
Take time to walk in beautiful gardens or to listen to music as you sit and talk softly.</span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
Some questions that will revel your date's interests and personality:</span></span>
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">What is your most treasured possession and why?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Which is the last book you read?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Which is the one job in the world that you would love to do?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Do you believe a cup is half empty or half full?</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">If you could travel through time, what single mistake would you correct in life?</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Mature Dating: less worry over physical appearance!<br />
That's freedom - Take time to love who you are. </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">With the right person, being involved is such a blessing, but being single does not necessarily mean being lonely. Avoid these "singles" habits and you will be on the way to recovering from a divorce or separation and a starting point to getting a life back:</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Looking back and living in the past-</b> you can never move forward if
you try to hold on to the past, a bitter one at that. It prevents you
from seeing the beauty
of the possibilities that lie ahead. Hatred /bitterness clouds the
psyche and drains the spirit. It is always counterproductive and will
never do any good. Let go of the negative and start working on positive
energy.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Letting go of taking care of yourself -</b> when we feel low and lost, we
tend to neglect our physical appearance, health and fitness. Self
confidence 101 starts with feeling good about yourself: don't get me
wrong - physical isn't everything nor the main thing, but if we can help
our self-esteem by
improving what we can in the physical aspect, it will always be a bonus
and a start to building your confidence. Get into shape, be active, eat
healthfully to make you feel lighter and better. Get a good haircut,
dress well to make you feel good, treat yourself to a spa and some
pampering.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Neglecting other aspects of your life -</b> It may be hard to concentrate
on your family, career or your favorite activities, but to neglect
these things will definitely spell disaster. Rather, use the opportunity
of being single to concentrate on your kids, career and favorite
activities to keep your mind busy and further add
to your self-confidence. Just because your personal life is low doesn't
mean you should let other parts of your life take a downhill path as
well.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Retreating into your own world -</b> while there is always some value in
having time alone, doing this for an extended period of time and sulking
or wallowing in self-pity and bitterness will only make you feel worse.
Use this time to specially bond with your kids, they need you more than
ever as they are affected somehow with their parents' divorce. Get out,
go with friends to have happy times ( not sulk with equally low friends
- keep each others' spirits up!). Indulge in activities that will allow
you more social interaction like group sports, dancing or socio-civic
activities. For your times alone, reading worthwhile books
will help - the Bible can do you wonders to reconnect spiritually. Or
indulge in a favorite hobby, one that really gives you fulfillment.</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b> </b></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Coping with divorce
is a long gradual process, but bottom line is always to move forward and
strive towards using this negative experience to make one a stronger
and better person.</span></span>Mature Dating Over 40http://www.blogger.com/profile/07006749679849426744noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690664909226115820.post-41609165593596626392015-07-14T07:54:00.001-07:002015-07-14T07:54:26.106-07:00Mature Relationship Advice? Don't Fake It. Ever!<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGJEeUBCIj5pDqgMTGu15B2fGhf8YMc2RdVH9cD2a-gmcIAiesbYCx67mRKaJMF7HqTnVDutalaN5WnuUcbndlA67lHD9oJn21HzfMU3uRHNeUhucutho9hT10x7bCx4r_Mm3jdWpxKi4/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGJEeUBCIj5pDqgMTGu15B2fGhf8YMc2RdVH9cD2a-gmcIAiesbYCx67mRKaJMF7HqTnVDutalaN5WnuUcbndlA67lHD9oJn21HzfMU3uRHNeUhucutho9hT10x7bCx4r_Mm3jdWpxKi4/s1600/4.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">There are few exceptions to this rule and at the moment I can’t even
think of any! If you’re faking it in any area of your relationship it’s
only a matter of time before it comes back and bites you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Once you’ve faked it, you’ve painted yourself into a corner with only two options: staying in the corner or walking away and messing up the paint.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b><a href="http://maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">MATURE DATING OVER 40 - UK</a></b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Here’s a really good example of making things hard for yourself by faking it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Have you ever been with a man you really liked but who you didn’t
feel connected to sexually? When you’re with him you just don’t feel the
chemistry. So rather than telling him you’re having a problem feeling
sexual, you decide to fake sexual pleasure instead. You really like him,
but have to pretend he’s a great lover and that you’re sexually
satisfied. But there’s a catch, as you continue to see him, you have to
pretend to enjoy sex every time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now your options are limited. You can’t tell him you have a problem
without making him wonder what’s been going on with you all along. So
the only other alternative is to keep going on with the sham until you
can’t stand it anymore.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">There’s relationship advice
that will tell you to “fake it till you make it,” but in this case and
in many more; it’s like using a band aid to cover up a deeper problem.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">There is only so long you can fake it,
eventually you’re going to want more from your intimate experience with
him but it will very touchy when you ask for it. He will wonder what’s
you’ve been feeling and when the idea that you’ve been faking sexual
pleasure gets into his head it will hit him hard. It will be a blow to
his ego and his manhood. The fact that you’re now being honest with him
will be unimportant. He’ll only be able to focus on the fact that you
lied, and it will cut him deeply. You’ve taken away from him the
opportunity to do better and work on the problem with you. He will begin
to question your love and your loyalty.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Relationship Advice you can trust: When a man learns you’ve been dishonest in one area, he’ll begin to doubt you in all areas.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Let’s be honest, you fake it because it’s the easy way out; the path
of least resistance. The more you find you can get away with, the more
tempted you are to avoid discomfort and make things easier. Rather than
have the courage to tell him the truth in the beginning and do something
about it, you avoid the truth out of fear.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">There are many fears you have to face if you’re going to be honest:
fear of being judged, being unkind or being wrong. But none of the those
fears is worse then the pain you cause by betraying a man who cares
about you.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Be honest in your relationships about who you are and what you
need from the beginning. If you have issues about sex, money, or
lifestyle address them from the start. If you fake it you’ll end up not
only hurting your man, but you will be paying the price of living a lie
and in the end not having the relationship you really want.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Perhaps asking if you are ready to recover from divorce is a rhetorical question but so often what we say isn't really what we are feeling. We think we want to heal after divorce
from the heart ache and yet the anger feels as though it's serving a
purpose. In fact, anger does serve a purpose in releasing the tension
and emotional turmoil that is felt when we aren't living in alignment.
It is far healthier to release the anger than to hold it within. It is
how we release it that makes all the difference. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Releasing means letting go, not giving a little away and needing to
re-fuel by taking more in. Anger is not something you want to
continually feed and expand. This can be done in many ways as well.
Unreleased anger can result in illness, disease, lack of sleep,
frustration, revenge, over-eating, self-indulgence, excessive drinking, depression
and years of unhappiness. No one intentionally sets out to become this
way. It is the lack of knowledge, support and desire to change,
perhaps combined with learned beliefs that have been a pattern in life
that feels comfortable that holds you back from changing and living with
true purpose and joy.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There are stages of grief that occur from any significant loss. Going through a divorce
is a loss. You are the only one who can make the conscious and
deliberate choice as to when you are ready to recover. Your mind may be
feeling one way and thinking another. Your ego may be resisting
letting go. Your learned beliefs as to whether or not you deserve to be
happy could be holding you in resistance. </span></span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It will take much longer to heal from divorce and become empowered
from the experience if you don't believe you can or should be happy,
healthy and have an abundance of everything you want but it is possible. If you truly want to recover from divorce, enrich your life with complete joy, love, ultimate health and prosperity then make a decision now. Take action and make the commitment that despite set backs you are ready.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Do whatever it takes and get support so you may feel empowered and
self confident that you will not allow yourself to waste any more time
feeling less than fantastic. Get coaching, counseling, find new
supportive friends and start living to your full potential.</span></span>Mature Dating Over 40http://www.blogger.com/profile/07006749679849426744noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690664909226115820.post-30434351331239802142015-06-23T06:50:00.001-07:002015-06-23T06:50:17.759-07:00Keep Yourself and Your Date Happy - With Friendly Dating<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Dating is the best way to get to know someone and if you’re single,
increase your chances of finding the right relationship and partner.
Over the years, the concept of dating
has evolved and people now take a date as a casual affair as opposed to
a form of courtship as it once was. People can now go out on dates to
the movies, mall, restaurant, and bar or just about anywhere without
having to be formal toward each other. If you’re already in a
relationship, dating
more often than not will help strengthen the bond with your partner. As
a guy, surprise her by taking her out on unplanned dates to places she
likes visiting. For women, you could surprise your man by asking him to
take a walk with you but luring him someplace that he has always wanted
to visit.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It is important to maintain <a href="http://www.maturedatingover40.co.uk/" target="_blank">friendly dating</a>
to keep the relationship strong and lively. Couples who take each other
for granted will either get bored or eventually decide on parting ways
due to lack of spice in their lives. After all, it is human nature to
desire for interesting moments in our lives as it helps break the
monotony or our mundane daily affairs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Friendly dating
can also be maintained by pre-planning which places you and your partner
would like to visit. Laugh, smile, joke and be happy with your partner.
That is the best way to have a healthy relationship that will last for a
long time to come.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">For singles,
finding the right partner can be a bit of a challenge. However, with the
use of the internet taken for granted in our daily lives, you will
always be able to find a date through various dating sites. If it’s
friendly dating you’re looking for, you could make it clear to everyone
that you’re not yet ready for a serious relationship and would prefer to
get to know the person first.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The most important characteristics that you or anyone will generally
look for in a date are a strong and interesting personality, a high
level of understanding, a good sense of humor combined with a sweet and
friendly smile. </span><br />
