The other day I found myself 'inadvertently' eavesdropping on the conversation of some two young men. They were talking about Aids, sex and marriage.

The bride may rule the planning of her wedding and obsess over every minute detail but that doesn't mean she's doing everything herself.

Solving problems in relationships requires honesty, integrity and a downright simple understanding of where the answers are not...

Some people have a great relationship with a life partner. They have been happily married (or having been living with another) for quite some time; things are just perfect; and the living together flows like it travels on those fast trains: comfortably, efficiently, and bump-less.

As relationships mature, grow and develop people can sometimes forget the little things that can have a positive impact on the quality of the relationship. I put these in three categories: Simple courtesies, simple pleasures, and simple words.

Sleep deprivation affects over 50% of the western world. Its effect is devastating. Changing mood, concentration, happiness, health, vitality and emotional balance. Sleep deprivation is a hidden gremlin that lurks behind so many of our day to day problems. Depression, exhaustion, anger, frustration, laziness, mental fatigue, poor decision making, anxiety, fear, relationship breakdown, impotence, sexual performance drop, abuse, violence, alcohol addiction and obesity. Sleep deprivation affects over 50% of the people you know, and yet, they will say their problems are not associated with poor sleep or the lack of it. 50% of your friends will be visiting chiropractors, health food shops, health farms, yoga classes, exercise programs, beauticians, doctors and taking “magic herbs” to deal with issues that at their root, come from sleep deprivation.

Don’t tell her about other women. They really don't want to know about them. In their mind, I was sleeping with every woman I had ever written a letter to.

There you were, deeply involved in a relationship. It may have been stormy or you may have thought everything was running smoothly. Then it happened: Your significant other no longer wanted to be your significant other...

Some men go through three main phases before entering into a serious relationship. The second phase can prove to be most perplexing and misinterpreted if a woman does not understand the complexity of this phase. If a woman can understand phase two, she can then take steps, allowing the relationship to transgress naturally into phase three. Phase three, of course, is a strong, solid and committed relationship.

I have recently encountered the words 'Cougar Women' - a term dreamt up by some male or possibly jealous young female to describe an older woman engaged in a relationship with a younger man. The description 'Cougar Woman' infers a predatory mature woman (35-50+) who hunts, stalks, lusts after and imposes her attentions upon some innocent, inexperienced young male. The traditional description for the older male who does likewise is, 'Sugar Daddy' -- Would it not be appropriate, in light of today's touted 'equality of the sexes' to apply the description of Panther Daddy? Or, where the male is a cheating spouse, then perhaps 'Cheetah Daddy' may fit the bill?

Have you ever, wrongly, assumed that your partner shared your beliefs and attitudes? Do you make a point of gathering information about a new partner? Or do you just revel in the joy of a new relationship? If you allow love to blind you, what you don't know about your relationship, may harm you.

We often talk a lot about women-scams. These ladies meet men in the Internet and start telling they are absolutely empty and need so much!… Mother is gonna have an operation, father needs a new wheelchair, sister cannot continue her education and brother is desperate to start his own busyness (of course in a year it is going to grow up and you are certain to have your interests, trust her!), and she… she is modest and needs nothing, perhaps, except... payment for using Internet, translator service, visa, plain ticket...

Bars and hotels were remarkably smart when they created the happy hour. Reduced prices on drinks and free hors d'oevres quickly filled up tables that formerly sat empty during the late afternoon doldrums.But the food and drinks are only window dressing for the real pull of happy hour - the chance to unwind from the day,put work behind us, and slowly and comfortably ease back into the world outside our daily grind. Rather than spend this time with work associates, create your own wind-down celebration at home.
