Sweet Love

Have you ever felt the feeling of being treated like shit? Being left hanging with a question mark in your head asking what you did wrong? When you feel used and trashed, thinking all you did was to please the person you love the most and that one, two or even three unreasonable mistakes you've done can actually ruin everything in just one snap of a finger? Even if you didn't do them on purpose? Harsh isn't it? How such pain and no matter how many times you beg for forgiveness and for him to want you back, he will still treat you like shit as if you never existed. He simply says "NO! I don't love you anymore" and then makes you wonder more if he really did love you or did he just use you because he thought you were the one for him.

Love is such a small word but can actually deceive you. It fades away so easily and to make it worse, it may break you into pieces like a puzzle that you, yourself, can never put back together. It is such a burden, so be careful with love. Know what it truly means for you. It may sound so sweet but can actually make you feel like shit. Such a sweet shit, eh?

Twitter Suspension

LOL Okay. So, as I have mentioned, I just registered to this new online tweeting thing about 2 days ago. And just this morning, when I got to work, I opened my internet browser and went to twitter right away. To my astonishment, there was this pink box right on top of the "What are you doing" box. And it says: "This account is currently suspended and is being investigated due to strange activity. If we have suspended your account mistakenly, please let us know. See Suspended Accounts for more information." I was like what the heck, what'd I do wrong? So, I immediately sent the Twitter an email asking them if I had violated any of their said rules. The last thing I remember about Twitter was that I was tweeting every 5 to10 seconds for about 5 tweets continuously. Was I wrong about that? Hhh..I'm really disappointed right now. That means no tweeting for me anymore...*sniff*

Enjoying Twitter

LOL LOL LOL That's prolly one thing I could say about Twitter.

See, I've just joined this Twitter thing and it's driving me nuts. I'm learning new stuffs and that's awesomeness right there!!! I feel like blabbing all day 24/7! Weee!!!

If you've got Twitter as well, then don't hesitate on adding me up for a little twit-a-twit!
See ya!

December

My siblings and I. LOL. (Aeron, Trizh, Me, Josh & Ivan)

The days are now finally coming to an end. And the next thing you'll know, we're on the 12th month of the year, it's December. The previous months came pretty much quick. And I could only remember a few things: Graduation, Dxb, & Baby Chesca. :)

Three days before completely hitting the end month of the year, will be my other half's glorious Natal Day. (& I will definitely have to blog about that!)

However, the biggest celebration of this month is non other than..tantararan... CHRISTMAS!!! Whether you're a Christian or not, you can still celebrate this season in your own way. The winter time gets you in that Christmas spirit, where for some it means rushing into the mall to buy presents. And that makes people tend to forget the true meaning of Christmas.

When I was in high school, my dad would bring my brother and I to Vegas or LA for the Holidays. I wouldn't say it sucked, but it's just that, I wouldn't feel too much of the spirit because the rest of my family was back in the Philippines celebrating on their own. I would always think that Xmas meant like, having big dinners and exchanging gifts near the Xmas tree or by simply being all together reflecting on the true meaning of the Holiday. My fam and I would never be complete during this time of the year, so it really pains me as much as it does to my Dad since he never really got to spend not even one Xmas with my younger sibling due to his business at work. But at the very heart of it all, what really matters most is that coming into the Christmas season with a grateful heart is the most essential thing to do during this special time.

Nevertheless, Decemeber will be December, and it will always hold its true meaning that Jesus gave his amazing gifts to us and we should spread cheer, joy, happiness & kindness, give others, sing along, and get together with the people we love and make the winter a little warmer by sharing the warmth of caring with them.

See you in a few weeks. ;)

Appreciation

Every now and then, the people that you once cared for the most are the ones you may or will, neglect the most. Sometimes you would take them for granted & sometimes feelings and aspirations of those closest to your heart will be easily forgotten just because you are always with them. But just a quick thought, appreciation takes too little time. Appreciating their presence in our lives is always something worth stopping for. I think it’s time to reflect and be thankful that this person is with us. It’s great to just open up our heart, hug them & let them know how much they mean to us.

Sooo, to show my deepest gratitude and appreciation, I would like to take this opportunity to really thank the man upstairs for giving me this life and for surrounding me so many wonderful people one could possibly have. Secondly, my parents, especially my Dad. Who has been there for me since Day 1, loving me and providing me the best life anyone could ask for. (& I miss him a lot.) Next, is my other half who I'm grateful for because of the past obstacles & difficult circumstances that we've encountered along the way but still, he never gave up & managed to handle & worked through it. Last, but not least, my family & friends. I really appreciate the fact that they do actually listen when I ventilate out all my rage or when I get too annoying, not to mention my frame of mind a.k.a. as oppose to being fickle minded. Hehe. It really drives them nuts but I do, do, do feel gratified for all that life endeavors.

And for everyone out there who might care to read on my blogs, this is for you..

Happy Thanksgiving in advance.♥

Must See Happyslip

What is happyslip?

About three weeks ago, I came across the Youtube World. & I found an interesting channel to subscribe to. (I got hooked to her videos right away.) Not only that, I even dragged my Lovey to watch it with me. The next thing we knew, we were cracking up non-ssstop!

Happyslip a.k.a Christine Gambito is a Fil-Am comedian/director in the Youtube World (Or, I'd like to put it that way.) She does these really short videos which has several characters and acts them out all by herself. Actually, there's no need for an introduction, you should see her videos and I guarantee you, it's hilarious!!! :) (Esp. the characters of her family.)

Thou Shall Love Yourself

:) Living happy, healthy and in love all in one. But of course you need to take care of yourself as well. Here's some useful tips:

• Winter is fast approaching. Brr..it's getting cold outside. Keep skin from drying up. Switch to a heavier moisturizer.
• Yum!!! Chocolate!!! Hmm..Did you know that dark chocolate in small quantities stimulates endorphins; contains nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, vitamins B1 B2 D and E; cuts cholesterol; fights fatigue; has serotonin, an anti-depressant; and has phenolic which is associated with reducing the risk of coronary heart disease. Who would have known something so good could be so good for you! :)
• Stressed? Here's a few suggestions -- Listen to calming music at night, get a massage at least once a month, exercise at least 10-20 minutes a day, take a long walk in the evening, take vitamins and lastly, don't forget to smile. :)
• HONEY! - As sweet as it is, honey can be used to prevent a burn from turning into a blister, moreover, it can get rid of a bad blemish when applied overnight because honey is antibacterial. I bet you didn't know that, did ya? :)
• Wanna look thinner in pictures? Try this before posing.. Lift your chin, put your hands on your hips, stand on a 45 degree angle like a ballerina and lean into the cam! Say cheese!
• Do you know where your scent spots are? The throat, wrist and hair are the few places to spray your perfs to make 'em stay longer.
• Don't brush your hair too much. Why? Because too much combing or brushing will stimulate glands to produce oil.
• How to smell good longer? Mix a little bit of perf with your lotion and apply!
• TOO HYPER? Run your wrists under cold water for a couple of minutes to calm yourself down.

When the Going Gets Rough

After my high school graduation in California, my dad decided to give my 18th birthday back in the Philippines. And when I did, I chose to stay for a while and began my freshmen year in College. I lived with four of my siblings, my mom, our uncle who then was the one who drove us here & there and 2 maids. I had my own room, I would wake up in the morning where my bed would be made-up, breakfast on the table, & ready to go out. I didn't even worry about breaking a nail. I never washed my own clothes, I would have 'em vacuum my carpet & put up with all the mess that I've done. Life back then was as simple as it sounds. I will eat, sleep, watch tv, surf the net, sleep and then wake up the next day doing nothing. Clearly, I was living a life of a princess. Or so I thought I was.

My dad, whom I stayed with in the States for years was even the one who would do my laundry when my grandma left. He would cook for me since I never had the time to stay home and learn about all the cooking stuffs. All I did was go to school, go to movies, swim and hang out with my friends. More over, when we had maids in the Phils., I was unable to do household chores.

Turning the tables around..

I'm done with College & now I'm working and living on my own. Independently...

So much has changed. When I got here in Dxb, I thought I would cry my heart out. I was washing dishes, doing my laundry, ironing clothes, and picking up after the mess I made. It wasn't easy for me because I wasn't used to anything like this. But I knew right then that I had to suck it up and deal with the fact that not everything in life was made easy.

There was even a time when I had to cook. & besides the recipes I knew from my Foods Class in High School which was pastry making, baking & cookie doughs, I was left with nothing. My first trial: Corned beef. Unfortunately, I failed. I thought you had to put water or something to it. Gross, right? :(

I went through a rough time during the couple of months of my independent living abroad. I thought my dad would always be there for me, if not him, my grandma would. But life isn't always like that. There were things I had to learn within myself.

Luckily, I have someone with me now who's been a big help. He taught me how to cook, do laundry and all that has to be learned.

Good Morning, Got your advert on here. Needed a PART-TIME representative within U.A.E to be my assistance since am presently outta the U.A.E to cast my vote in the USA will be back to U.A.E November Ending.I have an apartment within U.A.E & I want a representative to receive payment from my tenants. A compensation of 350aed will be paid daily. It Interested Reply Me Back with your Curriculum Vitae (CV), A copy of your Identity.

Albert Aaron Morrison Universal Communications SUITE # 6130, 11435 N.W. 34th Street, Miami, FL 33178 USA Telefax: (206) 984-2437 Dubai,U.A.E Tel: (+971) 509 270 359 London,UK Tel: (+44) 703 591 2067 Email: unicom562@ymail.com Http://www.multilinks.net

Done?

Seemed like a good part time offer huh? Same as what I thought it was. Clearly, it is a scam. Just like any other part time job hunters, I was fooled by this absurd ad. I was one of the few who have placed an ad on Dubizzle.com and recieved a malicious email like this. At first, I thought it was authentic. 'Til I replied and got answers which I knew were FAKE.

Thanks for the prompt message.I currently reside in Sharjah,U.A.E beside SUNRISE Hotel opposite Al-Madihya Supermarket.I've been presently outta the U.A.E since lastweek monday to cast my own vote for OBAMA in the USA since am a U.S.A citizen.I have apartments i lease out to clients and my tenants want to make a payment to renew another month.So, i now hereby seek a representative i could trust within Dubai to receive payment from my tenants and new tenants who wants to make payment.Will send the LEASE AGREEMENT & RECEIPT to the representative on my behalf and then receive payment on my behalf and either have it deposit to my account or make it transfer to me in the USA.Awaiting to read back from you if interested.

First of all, why on Earth would he get a representative to collect rental payments from his tenants? Couldn't he just make them send the money thru Western Union or something?

I don't feel comfortable been doing my work myself.My Agent has left the U.A.E to pakistan his country and he has been the one receiving payment for me when am outta the U.A.EThey have not Labour Papers been approved to transfer funds to me to the USA.Without No Labour papers they have no access/means of transfering money to me via Western Union or International Wire Transfer.So i seek a representative with Labour papers approved with a residential visa.

Secondly, I asked him if he had any other business here on U.A.E besides his apartment, (for another proof) and he said:

No.Got only Houses to LEASE out within UAE.

Which is apparently impossible..how can he get a flat in the UAE without any residence visa? Not unless he is a local of the country. Tssssssss.. THEN, I dropped the subject. I completely neglected his e-mail. I felt like a fool exchanging e-mails with a complete stranger who was asking for my cv & identity card. Hhh...Another waste of my time.

10 Tips to Get a Girl

This isn't how he got me. LOL. But some basic tips I thought I'd wanna share to y'all.

1. Always smile. (a grin is ok) Not in a weird or psycho way of smiling, just a sweet smile will do.
2. Compliment. We love that. Compliment her shirt, say something like "Hey, I think your shirt looks good on you." Or whatever you see in her. Say something nice, but mean what you say. More importantly, compliment her on the little things she prolly worked on for hours/days just to impress you. (Now, she deserves that)
   
3. Be her SUPERMAN! We like guys who'd stick up for us when bad or rude people gets in our way. It shows bravery.
4. Have manners. Show her that you have good etiquette's. Who'd wanna date someone who's mean and rude? (Not me!)
5. Don't be a jerk. It's a real turn off!
6. Dress appropriately. We like guys who have their own style. Do not forget to include: Shower! That's a plus! Looking good and feeling good: definitely pays off.
7. Look into her eyes when talking. Like what most people say, it's the window to the soul.
8. Show confidence whenever/wherever possible. But DON'T BRAG.
9. Show respect. You know what is right.
10. Lastly, BE YOURSELF. A genuine person will like and eventually love you for who you are.
    

Fairy Tattoo

:) LOL Okay. I may have despised it for once, but luckily, I got the hang of it. I, myself, had gotten a tattoo on my own. Just to see how the pain felt like. It was nothing compared to my bellybutton piercing. At first, I thought it'd sting like a bee or a bite of an ant. But hell, worst. The outline of my fairy wings seemed like a blade scraping the sheesh out of me. And well, the shading part, think of this, for all of those who have gotten a prick in the finger for laboratory purposes, it was like that 100x. Yeah. I'm not exagerating or anything. For me, that was how I felt when I was getting my gigantic fairy on my upper back. Hehe. So, last night, I couldn't lie flat on my back. I had to sleep lying on my stomach or just the sideview where my other side wouldn't touch the bed. And now, I'm at work. I have this blazer on and the stupid petroleum jelly is sticking to it. HAHA. I can't wait to get home and wear my tube top where it'd feel more comfortable. Hhhh...so yeah, there goes my medical career in the future. LOL. What a shame. If I do pursue Med in the mere future, and people found out I have a tatt, WOW! That would be awesome. HAHAHA! :) I'll post the finish outcome of my tatt later. ♥

P.S.
I wonder if my dad would kill me if he found out about this. *FINGERS CROSSED* Hopefully, he doesn't read my blog. Hehe.

Tattooed

Okay. Not every man needs to get one just so he can prove his masculine side. Not too long ago, he and I were having a little argument about his desire of getting a tatt done on his back. He wanted to get it before his birthday. Luckily, it's his birthday, so I approved just because. & voila. Last night, not a little sick anymore, he had it done on his back, upper left corner. Amazingly, it looked cool. So, yeah. Whatever. It's not like I'm not getting one as well. HAHA! Come to think of it, I came from a pre-med course and I used to hate it so bad cuz I thought it'd look gross when you get older since it would shrink and wrinkle. HAHA. & now, little by little, I'm startin' to appreciate it. Okay, I think once is enough. But from what I heard, it can get really addictive. Whew!BTW, I posted a picture of his tattoo from last night. HAHAH. & it's not wet, that's just petroleum jelly to prevent it from ...I dunno...LOL. Ask his tattoo artist! He did a great job. :) I can't wait to see it after a week.

I love the way..

I love the way you care for me
I love the way you make me feel safe
when wrapped in your arms.
I love the way you protect me
I love the way you'll always be there for me
So many things I love about you
It's hard to name them all
I love the way you kiss me
I love the way you look at me
I love your eyes
I love your smile
I love your voice
I love everything about you
You're perfect in my eyes.

BFF ♥♥♥

She and I go way back in h.s. We weren't seatmates or anything but we still sat close to each other. Close enough to gossip. :) Her name is Jan Margaret. Whom I spent my life venting out all the dramas and possible annoying disturbances that would make her get rid of me. But through it all, she never gave up on me and even loved me better at my worse. :) We may have been populars nor losers, but we made tons of friends along the way. But more importantly, we became the best of friends. Despite the times when we'd want to rip each other's head off, she's still the most important person in my life.

B*tches Not Invited

I knew I just had to VLOG about this crazy little concrete idea of mine.

You see, it's been the longest four years of our lives. And yet, there's this neurotic ex-b*tch who just can't enough of what she already has. LOL. To my extended gratitude and to my overwhelmed nature, I still have no clue whatsoever why she keeps adding me on Friendster for the nth time. LOL. I just find it so foolish & funny that I kept rejecting her invites and yet, she hasn't got a clue what she's getting herself into. Has she gone out of her cramped mind or something? I don't know what she wants from me or my man. But whatever it is, I just want to tell her to: get a life. Cuz for me, getting even with an enemy was never a good move. WHY? Would I level myself down with a loser? Give me a break. Tss...

She is over and done with. There is no need for a connection or for fueling the flames again. Sheesh! Life is too short to stress myself with people who don't even deserve to be an issue in my life. TSK!

My life

Just a few minutes ago..

I realized - that I should not regret any day of my life.

Good days give me happiness. Bad days give me new experiences. Both are essential to life.. Happiness keeps me sweet. Trials makes me strong. Sorrows keep me human. Failures make me humble. Success keeps me glowing. AND most of all, he keeps me going. His love is my ultimate strength in life & the reason why I am here today. I've loved him from the very beginning and he is my life.

One Thing

Love waits for one thing.

...the right moment.

I won't be a hypocrite denying that I once lived my life and had boyfriends before I settled with the one. I was naive and I didn't exactly know what I wanted. So, I made mistakes and I mean really made mistakes of choosing my previous boyfriends. All were jerks. Not to mention, I wish I hadn't gone out with them for God's sake. Maybe if I was still with them, I wouldn't be here or was still at my feet not knowing what to do with my life. Worse, they were all the same.

Everyone's not afraid of trying again. They're just afraid of getting hurt for the same reason. But life is simply unpredictable. You'll never get the answers to your questions until you learn to risk some things. And I took that so-called risk to love again until I stumbled upon this one thing.

If I have learned something from it, it's that "no one should let themselves get used to anything. Give your heart a room for accepting that in life, nothing stays constant." And that means, boys are like bubblegums, you chew 'em up and spit 'em out. Hahaha...

No, seriously though, even a set of mistakes brought me down. I still managed to wait and VOILA!!! LOL. He came my way unexpectedly. And whuddyaknow now, we've been together for the longest. I feel that he's this one thing that came the right moment in my life. And I made a choice of risking to find love again.

P.S.
Life is about trusting our feelings and taking chances, losing and finding happiness, appreciating the memories and learning from the past. Life goes on. ♥

Feelings

There are times when I just couldn't help but wonder why. . . Trust is just too hard to give while jealousy is too easy to feel. :(

Loving Him

I've known him since freshmen year in College. We've been together for the past three and a half years. And we've been inseparable since then. I tell him how much I love him before we go to sleep, when we wake up in the morning and at random times. I intertwine my fingers with his when we walk together and cuddle up to him when we're sitting next to each other. I'm happy whenever I'm with him. And when I'm having the worst day ever, he's always there to cheer me up and tells me everything's gonna be okay. But when he's the one who's having a bad day, sometimes I hug him from behind as a surprise. In addition with my so-called little surprises, I slip him sweet sticky notes to cheer him up. Because at one time or another, stress and problems may occur. With us, we just goof off and let loose. Most of the times, we just chill and share inside jokes with each other. There's something very bonding about having a cute little secret only the two of us knows.

..to be continued.♥

Jealousy

"Love is not jealous, ... does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked."

Jealousy is when you react negatively towards the possibility of losing what you have to someone else. Unlike envy, it usually involves three people, rather than just two: you, the person who has what you want, and the person who threatens to take it away. It's an unhealthy habit that can make any kind of relationship crumble; if you're a jealous person, you've probably already seen how much damage it can do. But at the core of jealousy are some fears and expectations that are hard to shake, unless you make a conscious effort to cast them away.

Abusive Relationships

You love him. He loves you. Everything is doing quite well..not until you find yourself caught up in an abusive relationship. It can be very difficult to get out of a situation like this especially if you have no idea where and how to seek help. Every woman should know how to recognize a bad relationship before it gets out of hand.

For an instance, there are guys who are completely very possessive and controlling. They are the ones who tend to be more abusive. However, abusive situations falls into different categories, such as jealousy, insecurity levels, violence, belittles, and bad behaviours.

For most boyfriend-girlfriend relationships, the most often form of abuse is hitting. Arguements and petty quarrels are inevitable. And rather gets out of hand when one or the other starts throwing things at each other. Hitting is unacceptable & is the most obvious sign of an abuser. If a man hits you--GO! There will be second time, a third time, a fourth time, a hundredth time. Until you leave, or die.

Sometimes, men will try and accuse us of not loving them. Do not be fooled. It is a tactic to make us feel guilty and stay with them. He will even try to cry and rationalize his behaviour but only to find out that he is using our symphaty to get to us. He may even manipulate us by making seem like it was our fault.

The best way to escape this kind of situation is to tell him that you do not tolerate this behaviour and if he apologizes one minute and then blames you the next, then he is NOT sincere. It is time to move on.

Trust

Trust is a very important factor for all relationships. When trust is broken, it is the end of the relationship. Lack of trust leads to suspicion, suspicion generates anger, anger causes enmity and enmity.well, may result in separation.

I'm Yours

I'm Yours

by: Jason Mraz

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it

I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted

I fell right through the cracks

and now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out

I'll be giving it my bestest

Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention

I reckon its again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me

Open up your plans and damn you're free

Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love

Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing

we're just one big family

and it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more It cannot wait I'm sure

There's no need to complicate Our time is short

This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror

And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer

But my breath fogged up the glass

And so I drew a new face and I laughed

I guess what I been saying is there ain't no better reason

To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons

It's what we aim to do

Our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more,

no more It cannot wait I'm yours

Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me

Open up your plans and damn you're free

Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours

so please don't, please don't, please don't

there's no need to complicate cause our time is short

this uh, this uh, this is our fate

i'm yours

No Overpowering

Many relationships fail because one party tries to overpower another,or demands too much. People in love tend to think that love will conquer all and their spouses will change the bad habits after marriage. Actually, this is not the case. There is a Chinese saying which carries the meaning that "It is easier to reshape a mountain or a river than a person's character."

It is not easy to change. Thus, having high expectation on changing the spouse character will cause disappointment and unpleasantness.

It would be less painful to change ourselves and lower our expectations.

Get Well Cakes

What is it with this whole cake thing? When for all I know, cake is just often a desert of choice for meals and for particular occassions, such as birthdays, weddings and even anniversaries. Well, there's a lot of cakes. And I'm talking about varieties of cakes. Some are sponge cakes, cheesecakes, buttercakes, fruitcakes..and the list just goes on.

However, just about a month ago, or maybe a few weeks back, as I cannot remember the exact date anymore, my significant other brought me a cake. And here is how the story went...

I was in bed. Lying flat on my stomach. Yes, I like to lie down facing the bed with my belly lying flat on the mattress. I don't call it weird,but you get my point. So anyways, I was just randomly thinking about a few things that went down with my week. And then I fell asleep for a couple of good minutes. However, my annoying ringing tone from my other Nokia mobile kept me awake for a bit when it started ringing. It was him.
He just said "hi" and wanted to know what I was up to. I said "nothing." Then he asked me this one IDK question. "are you sick?" I said, "Nah,just caught a cold this morning but it's nothing,really." And because my voice sounded like I just got up from bed..he thought I was madly sick. AND so yeah..a few hours later, he came over. And yes, you can guess it. He brought me a box of cake. I mean not just a small size cake but a huge chocolate cake that I would probably consume for about a week or so. I was puzzled for a moment asking myself, "Have I forgotten something? Like, an anniversary or occassion of some sort?" but when I opened this cake, as to my zealous surprise, the cake had an icing writing that says "GET WELL SOON." He swept me off my feet. Like seriously romantic as it was, I felt really captivated. Isn't he the sweetest thing? I didn't know catching a cold meant like a real ill situation that would earn me a cake. Hehe. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the rest of the day eating a piece of chocolate cake.Ü

So, from then on, I dunno the meaning of giving cakes anymore. It doesn't matter what occassion it is, just as long as the person means a lot to you, then a cake will simply put a dazzling smile on their face.Ü

Cheers.*

Don't Forget About Us

Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby

Now everytime I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about

Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart
and I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us

I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us

Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it

There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about

And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like meShe'll never be MC
Baby don't you, don't you forget about us

Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.

Time Apart & Time Together

One of the fascinating traits in our nature being a woman is our ability to drown ourselves into the man that we truly adore. Women like us, somehow, has the capacity to become attached emotionally, some very off-the-wall, and believe that the man that we adore shares the same desires and feelings that we are experiencing. Nonetheless, this can be a sure fire way to push the "man of your dreams" out of sparkle, and worse, out of your life.

Certain things happen in relationships. Be it platonic or real romance. But being obssessive doesn't necessarily mean you really have to worship the one that you love. Most of the times, it just really scares the hell out of them. While most guys may enjoy the pleasure and the advantage of having an obssessive girlfriend. And I suppose, if you really wanna make things work out for the both of you, may I suggest that you avoid being an obssesive gf.

If you love him, you won't lose him. Don't go all the way out to him. Just accept him for who he is. It is such a deep respect for him that you would never want him to change in any way for you. A guy has so much to offer if he is given a space to be himself. Since space is a zone intended only for him, when he wants to chill with his friends, so be it. It's important to let him know that it's okay for you that he's having a good time and to spend time with his boys. (Even if it means for faking it.) You know deep within yourself that you'd rather be the one he spends his time with. However, if you force this to happen, it will only result into a petty quarrel or him pulling further away. Strengthening the relationship is the main thing, if you're able to encourage and support his space, it will build up his belief that you want what's best for him. Patience is a virtue. And in this case, he will surely appreciate this when the time comes.

As for us girls, it is vital that we also take the time off for ourselves. Even if it requires the thought that at this point, he won't be around but still supportive of you. It's all about personal growth and experiencing new things. It's not about focusing only on the one you love.Taking time for yourself isn't selfish. If you aren't the best person you can be, then you can't expect to be the person you need to be for him.

Afterall, this whole obssessive thing only begins in the first quarter of the relationship. To be able to keep a healthy relationship, you’ve got to keep it balanced. For instance, some couples spend time apart to be able to keep their individual identities. It doesn’t always have to be about both parties, but showing an interesting side of each personality. If he goes out with his boys, try going out with your friends as well. While he’s into his other side, it gives you the time to reconnect with old friends or relatives. After setting aside your guy for a while, it’s best to set up a time and day to bond again. Doesn’t it feel good when you miss someone and finally see them again? It will be like the same feeling, hence, when you get together it igives both people in the relationship to enjoy the time while each of you has a grounding point or rather the ultimate feeling of being back in each other’s arms.

While at certain point, there is a time apart and a time together, there is also another full stop to knowing when to back off and keeping it low. Learning his body language and instead of asking too many annoying questions, learn to listen to what he says. Men don't always come out and say how they feel, and may not even tell even if you ask a hundred times. If you feel that he may be pulling away a bit, do not force yourself on him. At this point, we tend to get clingy which drives them away from us. And the only left for us to do is to let him know that we're available when he wants or when he feels that it's okay to discuss the situation.

Long or Short

Truly, there are 2 forms of love. A strong, long-lasting one and a short, but initially just as strong love. Before you make the decision that you really do love this person, give it some time and a lot of thought. :)

Falling Inlove . . .

Hello world! If you have ever fallen inlove, then you know that you can feel 'happy' or 'miserable'. If you don't take the chance then you will never know how a loving feeling feels. Right? :)

Love can either make you happy or rather can cause you great pain. Loving someone that loves you back is the goal of every relationship. The first thing to know is, if that someone really feels the same way as you do before going out and before becoming too emotionally invested. Try building a relationship first. However, some people do not like a person to be too giving. This will just cause a break-up because then, it becomes an advantage for that someone to use you. It might also overwhelm someone and that will scare them off and spoil the relationship. Take time and enjoy each other, mingle around, date, and if in time, you fall out of love or don't see it working, just accept it. There is really nothing you can do to change it. Just sieze the moment aand then go on with the flow of the future.

However, if you really do love that someone, try go get back on track. DO NOT BEG! Just talk and see if there is a slight chance of getting together again. If the answer is no, accept the fact and go on.

Do not let the situation get into you. Do'nt be afraid of loving someone new.

How to Find Your Soul Mate

Many people feel that there's one person out there who can enrich your life in a way that no one else can. If this is true, how can you increase your chances of finding this person? And when you meet him or her, how will you know it's your soulmate?

Be the person you would love to love. Instead of waiting for your soulmate to appear, make yourself the person you would like to find. Work on becoming the unique individual you're looking for. Just as you would want your soulmate to be comfortable in their own skin, work on just being yourself. You'll stand a better chance of getting noticed if you are comfortable, confident, and happy to be you. Expressing your individuality is the closest you can come to advertising your soulmate potential. Not only will you stand out, but you'll also be doing things that are more likely to bring you closer to your soulmate, who probably has similar interests and goals.

Remember that your soulmate might not be what you expect. If there's only one person in the world who can be your soulmate, what are the chances that they'll live in your town, look like the people you grew up with, or even speak the same language? Your soulmate does not have to live in the same country or even the same hemisphere as you. Be willing to span the globe for your true love. Also, if you're expecting your soulmate to be love at first sight, you might never find what you're looking for. So keep an open mind. Part of the romance of having a soulmate is being pleasantly surprised. Never change who you are inside.

Be patient. Life doesn't normally work on the schedule you envision. Your soulmate might cross your path when you're 8 or 80 years old. Don't be surprised either if there is a considerable age difference between the two of you. Yes, you might look forward to spending the majority of your life with your soulmate—perhaps buying a house, getting married, starting a family—but things do not always go as you plan. Your soulmate will color your world no matter how old you are, so don't rush into things, or else you might end up forcing the wrong person into the soulmate box, which will cause pain for everyone involved.

Accept people for who they are, not who you want them to be. When you've got all these fantasies flying around in your head about how wonderful and special your soulmate will be, it can be easy to look for those specific characteristics and features in anyone you get involved with. Unfortunately, unrealistic expectations can ruin a relationship, and might even chase your soulmate away. Whoever it is that you think might be your soulmate, appreciate their individuality and trust that if this person is your soulmate, they'll never need to change who they are for you, just like you'll never need to change who you are for them. That doesn't mean that you can't encourage them to try something new or help them to grow as a person, just don't force things on them that they are not comfortable with.

Weather the storms. Contrary to what popular media would have you believe, meeting your soulmate doesn't guarantee "happily ever after." Things won't get easier when you find that special someone, and in fact, they might get even harder. Ultimately, a soulmate is someone with whom you can grow, and the only way to grow together is to face challenges together. So if you put your heart and soul into a relationship, stick with it through the ups and downs, even when you question whether it's meant to be, and you might look back decades later and realize that you were with your soulmate all along. True love with your soulmate does not grow on its own: it must be cultivated and continually nurtured. So be lovable, and be willing to love like there is no tomorrow.
