I truly believe that people come into our lives for different reasons. I also think that we are faced with challenges to learn our life lessons. I met a very special woman recently who was generous enough to share her wisdom with me. She inspired me, made me think, and helped me grow.
A few days ago, I received a spam email addressed to Discreet Cougar. Yowzer. I am hoping I am neither, though that hope is likely in vain. My age qualifies me as a "cougar", I know. Though whether my looks do or not is up to the beholder. Are cougars well maintained? Or just ungracefully fighting the aging process? Are they pathetic or bold? Or both?
When you think about your relationship, are you completely satisfied? Do you find that you are bored? Well, the good news is that you’re not alone.
In a survey of 3,341 people in monogamous relationships (1,418 men and 1,923 women), a study found that a quarter of respondents were bored in their current relationship. Another 25% reported being on the brink of becoming bored. Do the math. That’s 50% of the respondents surveyed -- all BORED.
She has finally had enough. The character modeled on the likes of the wife of the former New York governor, Silda Spitzer (who stuck by her husband after he resigned his office amid a call girl scandal) and other politicians’ wives whose husbands publically cheated on them and humiliated them, has been pushed too far.
Marriages are crumbling around me. Two friends of mine, within a year of one another, left their husbands for other men. Another married friend of mine admitted--with not a lot of compunction--that he’s had a girlfriend for years, and sorta can’t wait until his youngest child (age 12) leaves for college so he can divorce his wife.
Relationship violence is certainly not a fun or comfortable topic to discuss, but it's increasingly a subject of immense importance. A recent Glamour magazine survey revealed that 29 percent of respondents reported having been in an abusive relationship, and an additional 30 percent admitted they had not been in an abusive relationship, but had been degraded, threatened with a gun or knife, or harmed by their partner at some point.
I walked the red carpet last week at the US Weekly Hot Bodies party…No I was not included in the issue, thx very much US! Guess I need to hit the gym a bit more often, LOL!
Men are from Mars, women are from Venus - or so they say. Many social scientists, bloggers, and authors today still take the stand that men and women are inherently different due to simple gender differences, which influence how they interact with each other on a daily basis.
Fast forward a little more than a decade, replace that e-mail in your AOL inbox with a red Facebook notification, and you’ve for yourself a modern day “You’ve Got Mail” scenario.
I loathe having a television in our bedroom. I don't like to watch TV before falling asleep. I like to read. My bed partner, however, loves watching TV before bed and claims that he can't fall asleep without it. That's a hot steamy pile of turd, because on the few times when he didn't watch TV, and instead read, he was out like a light in less than 10 minutes.
