Romance / What Make Up The Qualities Of A Good Wife Beyond The Traditions? by tkgz(m): 11:01pm On Nov 05, 2020
Marriages are not just about one person, but you can do your part by knowing what makes the qualities of a good wife in the present age vs. the 1950s.

The qualities of a good wife in the 2020s are not the same as a good wife in the 1950s. Back then a good wife was said to have dinner on the table when you arrived home from work. She always ensured the children were clean and quiet. She would put her husband’s needs before her own.

Well, a good wife in the 2020s is quite a bit different. She is independent. She is able and willing and more than capable of working. Plus, she is her own person partnered with a husband, not owned by him.

A woman can do a lot of things to be a good wife today, but none of those things should make her feel uncomfortable or less than her husband.

What is a good wife?

A good wife respects her husband and herself.

Yet, many still believe a wife should abide by her husband’s rules. She should know her husband’s needs and meet them and keep any issues in the marriage private. She should always look her best for her husband.

When you initially Google qualities of a good wife, you will see things like: shares your beliefs, selfless, attractive, and loves you unconditionally. This is an actual list of the qualities of a good wife. In fact, it is the first list that comes up at the time of writing this article.

Not one of these things is necessary to be a good wife. These things do not make a good wife, they make a bad husband in many cases.

There are plenty of successful and happy marriages where a couple has differing religious beliefs. No one is selfless. And unconditional love is wildly dangerous. These things hold women up to an unattainable standard when there are no requirements of a good wife.

A good wife is one who does her best and expects the best from her husband.

A good wife will demand respect from her husband and return that respect. She will have bad days where she needs more attention or space and will be there for her husband on his bad days too. She will be herself and be honest with her husband.

A good wife is what works for that particular marriage. There is no firm definition of a good wife. Sure, she is respectful, loyal, and kind, but beyond that, wives and husbands will differ based on their relationship and what it needs.

Romance / How To Stay In Love Forever With Your Lover by tkgz(m): 9:36am On Sep 27, 2020
Let’s face it, falling in love is giddily exciting but staying in love can be quite a pain. Find out how to stay in love forever by really understanding your relationship and your partner.

You may not voice this out loud or even talk about it with your partner.

But at some point in every long relationship, all of us wonder about how to stay in love forever.

Even in the happiest of relationships, it’s natural to get interested in someone else or find someone else attractive.

It may seem surprising, but it’s against human instincts to stay in a monogamous relationship or not find someone else sexually appealing.

But then again, social norms and societal pressures bind us to stay in a committed relationship.

How to stay in love forever
To understand how to stay in love forever, we have to understand the basic requirements of a romantic relationship.

And we have to accept that sexual attraction and love are two completely different aspects that come together in a successful romantic relationship.

Staying in romantic love with your lover doesn’t just depend upon intense love or affection for your partner.

If staying in love was all about fondly liking someone or loving them unconditionally, there’s no difference in the love you’d experience for a friend, a sibling, a child or even a parent. In these cases, love is unconditional.

But romantic love needs intense love and sexual attraction to work successfully. And to make a relationship work, you need to keep the relationship alive and relive the excitement of the first few weeks of love every day for the rest of your lives.

Of course, it’s rather difficult to trick your mind into recreating those fleeting glances of first love and those passionate first kisses, but it’s definitely doable if you use these simple relationship changing steps on how to stay in love.

Ways to stay in love forever
To stay in love forever, learn to keep an open mind and always exchange thoughts with your partner to create new exciting memories that can last a lifetime. And never ever forget the two things that are required to stay in love, affection and sexual desire. Find out how to use affection and sexual desire to stay in love with each other using these tips.

Get a great body

Yes, this is shallow. And you need to face it, sexual desire is shallow too! If you want your partner to love you and desire you, you really can’t expect your partner to desire your Michelin tires, can you?

In several extensive surveys, it’s seen that over 60% of Americans are either overweight or obese. In the beginning of a relationship, you pay attention to your physique and try to look your fittest best. But as the years go by, you know you have a partner who won’t leave you anyway and you just stop taking care of your own body.

To feel good in a relationship or to sexually attract your partner, you really need to like what you see in the mirror every day. You can’t expect the affection and sexual interest to stay on if you can’t arouse your partner anymore. It’s brutal, but you can’t laze like a slob and expect your partner to genuinely think you’re sexy and find you desirable!

Dress up and look your best
Looking fit and getting a great physique is the first step to knowing how to stay in love, but that’s just not enough to arouse the sexual desire in long term relationships. You also have to understand how to look good when you’re walking down the street.

Sexual desire is an evolutionary trait, but knowing that there are a lot of other people who give you a second glance involuntarily makes your own partner desire you more.

Look your best, whether you’re at home or out with your partner at the movies or at a restaurant. Groom yourself and awe the people around you, and your partner will love you more, respect you more and definitely sexually desire you more than you’ll ever know!

Give each other space

As the relationship grows older, lovers start to spend time with each other a lot more than they would at the beginning. While spending every evening together is a great way to bond, it’s not good for the relationship.

If you really want to know how to stay in love forever, you need to learn to give each other space in the relationship to grow as individuals. Create your own hobbies and explore your own interests. Enjoy something that you love doing, be it playing video games or gardening, and grow your own passions. Keep your own lives interesting, and you’ll be able to have better and more interesting conversations with your partner.

Romance / The Big Things That Ruin A Relationship & How To Watch Out For Them by tkgz(m): 10:44pm On Sep 16, 2020
Relationships are not self-sustaining but can be self-destructive. Watch out for the things that ruin a relationship, however unimportant they may seem.

Once you get into a relationship, you may think the hard part is over. You survived the ghosting, the first dates from hell, and the messy kissers. Now you are settled with someone you actually like. Simple, right? Wrong. There are things that ruin a relationship that you may not even realize until it is too late.

Once you’re in a relationship, there are a lot of things that come easily. You don’t have to deal with new quirks. You know the person and are comfortable with them. But, just because you don’t have to deal with the annoyances of dating doesn’t mean that the hard work is over.

If you want your relationship to last, stay aware of these things so you can get ahead of them and keep your relationship healthy and thriving.
Staying aware of the things that ruin a relationship
You know that relationships require work, trust, communication, and respect to last. But, just because you know that doesn’t mean it is your daily focus.

Everyday stresses like family, work, and money get in the way of sustaining a relationship. When that happens, we take things for granted and forget to be on the lookout for red flags. The things that ruin most relationships are usually not purposeful or cruel intentioned. They happen because there is a lack of focus on sustaining the relationship in its healthiest state.

People get comfortable and forget to make their relationship a priority and things that relationships need to survive fall through the cracks.

Being aware of that and reminding yourself to check in on how your relationship is doing can help you prevent something from ruining it. You might even read the rest of this article and think, okay, this list is locked in. But within hours or even minutes, you get distracted and forget to turn those reminders into action.

We consider our relationships as part of our everyday life. They exist. They are there, and sometimes they make things easier and other times they are what cause us stress.

But, just because they exist daily doesn’t mean they are cared for daily. Make your relationship a priority just as you would your job, your kids, or even your house plant.

Taking the time to care for it keeps it thriving. And when you do that, you can stay ahead of the things that ruin a relationship.

Romance / How To Tell If Your Friend Is Fake: The Signs You Just Can’t Miss by tkgz(m): 11:27pm On Sep 13, 2020
Fake friendship is not something you should waste your time or heart on. Learn how to tell if your friend is fake and move on quickly!

Not every person in your life will be there for the right reasons. It’s sad! But it’s an unfortunate fact of life. Fake friends have the power to make you miserable, so it’s vital to know how to tell if your friend is fake. Then, work to cut them out of your life.

You don’t need a fake friendship. The chances are that you have many friends in your life who are true, genuine, and want the best for you. A fake friend is likely to come into your life like a whirlwind. They’re likely to want to spend every second with you, making you feel wanted and needed, but there’s something altogether darker behind it. In fact, they’re not friends with you in truth. They just want something from you or use you to make them look good.

HOW TO TELL IF YOUR FRIEND IS FAKE
It’s harsh. Unfortunately, it’s a sad reality about the human race. Not everyone always has the best intentions. The good news is that you can learn how to tell if your friend is fake by spotting a few tell-tale signs.

You probably already have an inkling. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be reading this and trying to figure out the answers for yourself! In that case, let’s help you put together the clues. Then, you can form an action plan to move on from the whole situation.

#1 You know they talk behind your back. A real friend doesn’t diss you when you’re not around. Instead they always have your back. If you’ve heard that this particular friend has been throwing shade when you’re not around, it’s one of the biggest signs for how to tell if your friend is fake.

It will hurt, that’s a truth. But it’s better to know now than to waste more time on a friendship that really is only for convenience.

#2 For some reason, you just don’t trust them. There’s a lot to be said for gut instinct. If you just have a slight inkling that you really can’t trust this person, listen to it. In the past, you’ve probably told them secrets and felt a little uneasy about what you said afterwards. It’s your gut telling you that there’s something not quite right about this person. [Read: How to Start a Conversation with Your Crush & Excite Their Mind]

#3 Everything seems one-sided. A fake friend will be selfish and focus on themselves, rather than the friendship itself. Fake friendships are often conditional – i.e. they’re happy while they’re getting what they want and the attention they need. But, if you focus on yourself or spend time with someone else, they’ll quickly turn sour.

Romance / How To Start A Relationship: 13 Steps For A Healthy Beginning by tkgz(m): 12:20pm On Sep 10, 2020
You want to know how to start a relationship? Good for you! Well, you’re about to find out right now how to get a relationship off the ground.
The advice you’re going to read may be a bit of a buzzkill. Sorry to break it to you. Right now, all you’re thinking about is seeing your new lover and wondering if they’re thinking about you as much as you’re thinking about them. But if you want to know how to start a relationship, one that’ll last longer than a week, you should consider some things.

So, if you want your love-dovey romance story to turn into a series, well, this is what you should keep in mind.

How to start a relationship
When you’re starting a relationship with someone, there are a lot of things going on in your mind. Do they like me? Can I see myself being with them in the long-run? Are they the one? These are tough questions. They can make you feel a little anxious *trust me, I know*. This can make you feel unsure of what to do or blind you from seeing the red flags.

Ah yes, the red flags. But let’s put those to the side for now. When we’re starting a relationship, everything is blissful and lovey-dovey. You’re on cloud nine and thinking this love will last forever and ever. Now, that’s not to say it won’t last forever. But let’s not jump too far ahead.

It’s time for the fun to start!

#1 How does the relationship make you feel? Before anything, check-in with yourself and see how this relationship is making you feel. Does this person bring out the best in you? Do you feel you can be yourself around them? Does this person support you? Write down how you’re feeling, so you can reflect on things later down the road. [Read: How to Read the Signs of Self-Centered People & Learn to Avoid Them]

#2 What do you want? If you want to have a happy and healthy relationship, you need to be true to yourself. Don’t jump into a relationship knowing this person isn’t the one for you. Of course, being in a new relationship can blind you a bit from seeing your needs, but this is why you need to check-in with yourself.

#3 What are your deal breakers? We all have deal-breakers, and now it’s time for you to think about them. Do you want kids? Do you want to get married? How do you feel about family? These are important topics you need the answers to. If your partner doesn’t want to get married and you do, then this may not be the relationship for you. [Read: How to Read the Signs of Self-Centered People & Learn to Avoid Them]

#4 Be yourself. I know you want to show them the best version of yourself, but this is somewhat of a white-lie. Be yourself. Don’t pretend to be someone you’re not. If you don’t like spicy food, don’t pretend you like it. They’re going to find out the real you eventually.

#5 It’s time to listen. It’s always time to listen, but right now, since you’re trying to figure out how to start a relationship the right way, really pay attention to your partner. Don’t get distracted by the passion and romance.

Focus on what your partner is saying and whether or not you two truly fit together. Romance is amazing, but it fades with time. Then reality kicks in.

#6 Be honest with what you want. If you want a long-term relationship, tell your partner that! Don’t stick around and hope they’ll change their mind. This is only going to hurt you in the end. Be honest with what you want and make sure they understand what you’re looking for. If they don’t want to commit, that’s fine. You just saved yourself a lot of wasted time.

Romance / 12 Real Reasons Why Couples Drift Apart Over Time by tkgz(m): 7:19am On Sep 05, 2020
Are you drifting away from your partner? Use these 12 reasons to find out why couples drift apart and what you can do to prevent it from happening to you.
A few relationships happily stand the test of time.

And many others, well, they start out perfectly, but somewhere along the way, the lovers start to drift away and fall apart even before either of them realizes what’s happening.

Have you ever been in a relationship where you love your partner, but surprisingly, don’t see a future with them?

You’re not alone.

Several lovers experience the same feeling, where they love their partner but can’t imagine getting married to them or living through the rest of their life with them.

Experiencing this kind of a relationship can be really stressful, because you may want to break up, but have no idea why you want to do that in the first place!

Falling in love and drifting apart from each other

When you fall in love with someone, the infatuation both of you experience towards each other would help hold the relationship together.

It’s a happy time where both of you don’t care about the differences or each other’s flaws.

The world just seems perfect, and you believe you’ve found the one. But once the excitement wanes, the couple needs to make the subconscious effort to please each other and keep each other happy. It’s the only way to keep the relationship exciting and alive for several years.

The turn from bliss to boredom

Intentionally or otherwise, many lovers don’t try to change for each other over the months and the years, nor do they try to please each other and woo each other.

They just let the relationship be, and they sink into the comfort of their own individual lives.

Both partners may love each other, care about each other and live under the same roof, and yet, they may be leading two separate lives.

And when this happens, it’s only inevitable that one or both lovers would want something more from life, something more exciting and passionate, and most importantly, more meaningful.

This is the clearest sign that both of you have started to drift apart *probably too far apart to even fix the relationship*.

After all, when one partner starts to believe that the relationship is suffocating them or preventing them from experiencing happiness, it’s only a matter of time before confusions, doubts, and second thoughts start to creep into their mind.

12 real reasons why couples drift apart over time

Has your partner started avoiding your calls? Or are there more awkward silences in the conversation? Or are you starting to get bored with the relationship?

You may be married or you may be dating, but the restless confusions feel just the same when you’re drifting apart from each other. You may not know the reasons or even when the drift started, but you can sense it from the unhappiness you feel in love.

Read these 12 reasons to find out why most couples drift apart over time, and chances are, you’ll see your own life in one or more of these reasons. And once you do find out where you or your lover went wrong, you can choose to correct it, or walk away for good.

#1 Non-communication. Communication is by far the single biggest aspect that holds lovers together or tears them apart. Do you still talk to your lover the same way you once did at the start of the relationship?

People change with time, and you may assume you know everything about your lover, but chances are, they’ve changed and they’re not the same person you once met several years ago. When you start to take communication for granted in a relationship, it’s only a matter of time before the inevitable drift takes control of the relationship.

#2 Suppressed emotions. Does your partner ever tell you to dream big, or quit your job and find something better, or anything else that makes you feel small and weak? How do you react to it? Do you communicate with your partner and express just how you feel about their ideas, or do you subtly grind your teeth, roll your eyes and just nod your head to get away from a discussion?

Many couples drift apart, not because they don’t love each other, but because they suppress just how they truly feel about the things their partner says. Your partner would assume they’re communicating with you. And you, on the other hand, would tell yourself that your partner can never understand you. Can a relationship ever work when such confusions play out every single day?

Romance / If You’re Regularly Asking Yourself, Am I A Bad Person: Read This by tkgz(m): 9:58pm On Sep 03, 2020
Do you find yourself musing, am I a bad person, on a regular basis? Do you find that you blame yourself when something goes wrong? You’re not alone.

When you’re constantly surrounded by negative events, it’s easy to start wondering, am I a bad person? If things seem to be falling apart for you at the moment, or you’re not spending as much time with those you care about as you normally would, repeat after me—you are NOT a bad person!

The world is a strange and uncertain place at the moment. The Covid-19 situation has changed everything about our lives and turned the whole thing upside down. It’s no wonder that many of us are feeling a little low or even anxious about what’s going to happen and whether things will ever return to that thing that we used to call ‘normal.’

Why you might ask yourself ‘am I a bad person?’

It’s not just coronavirus that’s got us all in a spin either. Look at the world we’ve living in, it’s such an unfair, upside down, backwards place sometimes. Why can’t we all just be friends and get along? It makes you wonder, that’s for sure.

Within all of this, mental health starts to suffer.

When things go wrong, one thing after the other, it’s easy to assume it’s some kind of cosmic karma, but let me tell you something—I know countless wonderfully positive and kind people, and for some reason nothing goes right for them either. They would never fall into the ‘bad person’ category, so it’s very likely to be the same situation for you.

Life can be like that sometimes. Let’s look at why you might start to wonder, am I a bad person.

Are all these things connected?

A year or so ago, a series of events left me wondering whether all the negative things in my life were connected. I questioned whether I was actually some kind of undercover narcissist, or whether I was actually being punished for something I’d done in a former life.

I had a string of friendships that ended rather abruptly. My relationship went a little strange for a while. I had no energy and couldn’t focus on anything for long. I wondered whether all of this was somehow my fault. Was I a terrible person and a terrible friend? Was I really to blame for everything negative that went on around me?

It might sound drastic when you’re not in the situation, but when a series of negative events occur in your life, within a short time scale, it’s very easy to wonder why. At the time, the only so-called ‘reasonable’ explanation is that it’s down to you. You then question, am I a bad person, and you come to the conclusion that you must be, somehow.

Of course, the chances of this actually being true are extremely remote. I now know that I was simply going through a rough patch. I can’t be blamed for the fact that a few friendships ended for no specific reason. Of course, I might have been to blame in some small way, but it was probably mutual and maybe those friendships had simply run their course.

Deep down, I know now that I’m a good person with a kind heart, and sometimes a run of bad things just happen in life. What makes the difference is how you cope with it and how you bounce back.

What you should be asking yourself

If you often sit and ponder, am I a bad person, ask yourself these questions:

– Do you deliberately set out to hurt people?

– Do you think about only yourself and don’t care about anyone else?
