Search For Love – A Beguiling Insatiable Love Story

Sometimes recurring dreams seen in the childhood get cemented in the memory never to go away. I cannot forget the outstanding Sea Beach House and its striking staircase that led to the second floor from the outside. A terrific memory of an awe-inspiring romance touches my soul and gets me carried away by a familial intense pleasure. Slowly, as I delve into the depths of memory a silhouetted male figure unravels. Gently as the colors of dark grey and black lift, I get a vivid splash of the dewy eyes in despair and emptiness. I drown in tears and wake up with an unknown pent of emotions, a heartache no one can fathom. Feeling of helplessness surrounds me as I remember him in chaos, gloom and anguish. I could perceive he was all alone, it was getting cold and there was no one to hold. Thou...

Get Through The Holidays As A Single Person

This can be a strange time of year. There are songs, commercials, shows on the television, movies and articles in the paper about the spirit of giving, loving, blessings, and the joy of family and friends. You see visions of couples holding hands, snuggling into each other on a cold winter's night or buying the perfect present for the love of their life. But what if you are single?

Ending The Relationship Merry-Go-Round

Breakups are hard and they hurt. But culture, and our friends, tell us that if we fall off the horse, we need to get up and get right back on. So what do we do next? Our friends drag us to clubs and parties trying to find the next Mr. Right. Why is it that we think when one relationship ends, we need to jump right back in and find another one? It becomes an endless cycle of failed relationships that can only be stopped if you get off the ride and take the time to evaluate them. If you have been through a series of failed relationships, you need to face the fact that they all have one common denominator and that is you. Your relationships end up the same way because you've created a pattern. You start the relationship the same way; you behave the same way during the relationship until i...

Is Sexting A Sign Of A Committed Relationship? – It Might Actually Be

Why do people sext? Why do they send racy or naked photos or videos and sexually loaded texts? For a short-term hookup, sexting might seem like a direct way to get what you want – or at least try to. But according to my research, sexting is actually most likely to occur within a committed relationship. Some research suggests that people often engage in sexting after being coerced by romantic partners or to avoid an argument with their romantic partner. So perhaps anxiety and concern about what your romantic partner thinks about you promote behaviors like sexting. As a human development researcher who studies how technology influences relationships, I wanted to understand if people who are anxious about dating or about what their partner thinks of them are more likely to sext. So where d...

When Does Dating Become A Relationship?

When I talk about dating, I refer to initially meeting a person that there is an interest in, then getting to know and learn that person mentally, intellectually, and eventually romantically. More often than not, dating begins with two individuals being physically attracted to each other. This is usually the first step. Those two people then begin talking. The conversation gives each person an indication of how the other one thinks and rationalizes, although that is only a small indication. The initial conversation usually determines whether future conversations or interactions will take place between the two. Sometimes it only takes two minutes for someone to realize that they are not interested in getting to know the other person any further. Therefore, it stops right there, even though ...
