A thirty-year-old with a child is much more likely to work out a relationship than a twenty-year-old looking for an adventure. Don’t dismiss women with children. She may be a diamond in the rough.

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

When we are children we do not yet have an identity. We learn about who we are through the mirroring that we get from our parents. It is called mirroring to describe the ability of good parents to gently hold up an imaginary mirror in front of the child until they learn to see themselves clearly without harsh judgments. If we do not get enough realistic mirroring during the years we live with them, we remain pretty clueless about who we really are.

Suffice to say we all want many things in life and any spouse we choose can offer only some of them.

We only truly fail when we cease to strive to be better. We only lose when we quit. Accept your mistakes and learning opportunities and pick yourself up and move on. Let the bad from the past go. Just let it go...

Letting go can feel like jumping out of a plane without a parachute. The relationship may have ended weeks or months or years ago, yet you can't get him or her out of your mind. We want to deny the relationship has ended. Letting go allows you to close one chapter of your life and to be able to start a new one with a clean page.

Promise rings are the middle ground between an official and long term commitment and a public announcement or promise that you only have eyes for each other. Hopefully this “one other” is the proud recipient of your promise ring.
