8 sings that your woman is DONE with you......all men should read this!!!!

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/broken-23.jpg"><img alt="broken 23" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-812" height="184" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/broken-23.jpg" width="275" /></a>No matter how shocked you feel by a breakup, your ex most likely sent a few distress signals before she kicked you to the curb. “People really disengage when a relationship is about to end,” explains John Gottman, Ph.D., an expert in divorce prediction and author of What Makes Love Last? “Women try to let men know that they’re not happy.”<br/><br/>That means you have a chance to salvage your relationship before she totally checks out—as long as you’re adept at picking up on her cues:  On average, women decide to call it quits after just 6 days of deliberation, according to a survey by SheLeft.Me, a breakup site for men. Translation: You need to act fast when you spot these signs of relationship trouble.<br/><br/>1. She criticizes your grammar when you fight.<br/><br/>Imagine this scenario: In the middle of a fight, you declare, “I could care less”—and rather than trying to understand your angst, your partner smugly replies, “Actually, you should say, ‘I couldn’t care less.’” She's not just being a grammar Nazi, Gottman says. “She’s saying it from a superior place. It’s an attempt to make you small and meaningless.”<br/><br/>This kind of condescension is a classic sign of contempt—the number one predictor of early divorce in Gottman’s research. “It’s a really acidic, destructive way of eating away a person’s self-esteem,” he says. Even if her words aren't scathing, you can see scorn all over her face: The signature expression is pulling the left corner of the mouth to one side, creating a dimple, often with an eye roll for extra effect.<br/><br/>2. She consistently cheats on your Netflix shows.<br/><br/>Your nightly Netflix ritual is about more than Mad Men. It’s about the two of you as a team, says Monica Lieser, a licensed marriage and family therapist. And that kind of connection breeds contentment: “When couples invest in creating and maintaining rituals, they have more longevity,” she says. So when your little habits—whether it’s a walk every night after dinner, or calling each other on your lunch break—start to dissolve, you lose a critical part of your bond. “A shared experience all of a sudden starts to feel like a chore,” she says. “The engagement somehow doesn’t feel good anymore.”<br/><br/>3. She makes sweeping generalizations about you.<br/><br/>“You always come home late” is a much weightier accusation than “You didn’t put the dishes away last night.” This kind of global criticism—marked by words like "always" and "never"—is a serious predictor of a split, according to Gottman’s research. (Another classic line: “What’s wrong with you?”) “The reason it’s so harmful is that it’s so non-specific,” he says. “It’s really damning the entire character and personality of the partner.” The result: You just feel attacked—which rarely, if ever, leads to a productive conversation about the relationship.<br/><br/>4. When you voice your concerns, she only gets defensive.<br/><br/>Relationship troubles go both ways—which means both of you will occasionally have to own up to screwing up. Unfortunately, defensiveness is a more natural reaction. And it’s a destructive one. “It takes two forms. One is the counterattack—I’m going to attack you 10 times harder than you attacked me,” says Gottman. “The other form is acting like an innocent victim, whining as you’re talking. Why are you picking on me? What about all the good stuff I do?” If your partner can’t ever admit to her mistakes, she’s placing the weight of the relationship entirely on your shoulders. And you can’t sustain that.<br/>5. She turns down requests for things she used to do.<br/><br/>Maybe your girlfriend used to willingly proofread your work emails. Or always offered to take your shirts to the dry-cleaner. Now she treats those little favors as infringements. Odds are she hasn’t just become suddenly selfish. There’s a good chance she no longer feels valued by you—a potent relationship killer—so she’s not interested in making your life easier, says Lieser.<br/><br/>6. You’re unable to talk about your s3x life.<br/><br/>You’d probably freak out if the s3x suddenly dropped off, but that's not the most pressing problem—it's communication. “Frequency is just a measure of behavior,” says Lieser. In other words, how often you knock boots tells you very little about the strength of your bond: Even if a couple only has s3x once a month, but have mutually decided what works for them, their connection can still be strong.<br/><br/>By contrast, if a couple messes around 20 times a month—but can’t talk specifically about their likes and dislikes—their relationship is likely lacking emotional intimacy, which creates desire, says Lieser. And as Gottman points out, if one partner starts to lose interest or feel dissatisfied, but can’t explain why, the other is just left feeling rejected.<br/><br/>7. You often eat dinner in silence.<br/><br/>Your relationship isn’t necessarily doomed if you dine in silence—but it definitely needs some work. “The foundation of a healthy relationship is friendship,” says Lieser. If you have nothing to talk about, you probably aren’t pals with your partner—which means your relationship can only last so long after the passion fades. And, in the long term, friendship breeds more than good conversation: It leads to playfulness in the bedroom and allows you to openly discuss your needs, s3xual or otherwise, says Lieser.<br/><br/>8. She's been having a lot of girls' nights lately.<br/><br/>That time with her gal pals won't kill your connection—but it will when she hangs with them in an effort to avoid you, Lieser says. So how can you tell when her nights out mean trouble? Ask about her evening when she comes home. If she doesn’t dish the details—say, some creeper bought her best friend a drink, or she tried an awesome new cocktail—then that shows she’s not interested in involving you in her personal life. And that probably signals a bigger issue, since “partnerships are all about sharing yourself with somebody else,” says Lieser.

7 Things You shouldn’t Put Up With In Your Relationship!

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Cheaters1.jpg"><img alt="Cheaters" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-703" height="159" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Cheaters1-300x159.jpg" width="300" /></a><br/><br/>Things like:<br/>1.Emotional abuse- A lot of people limit abuses in relationship to physical abuse and to them, any form of abuse makes the woman (only) the victim.<br/><br/>This is not true.<br/><br/>Men also can be victims of emotional abuse from their women and it can be as horrible as when it happens the other way round.<br/><br/>Someone who emotionally abuses you, takes you for granted, tells you in subtle or non subtle ways that you are not worth it, should not be held on to.<br/><br/>2.Cheating, especially serial cheating- There have been various reasons why people cheat. I have heard from the downright ridiculous to what seemed like a “reasonable” reason to cheat.<br/><br/>However, cheaters are not usually the best people to be in a relationship with. Your emotions are likely to go back and forth and you are most likely going to get hurt a bit too much.<br/><br/>Its usually worse when you are with a serial cheater, those ones who constantly cheat and with no reason whatsoever to.<br/><br/>You should not put up with this type of people, its never really worth it.<br/><br/>3.Lying- This usually goes hand in hand with cheating. A cheater most times, lies about everything he or she thinks would cover up their dirty habit.<br/><br/>A lying partner is one that would hurt you deep and the best thing is to leave this type of person be, because except you love being lied to, people like this hurt their partners a lot.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>4.Physical abuse- He hits you, she hurls the closest dangerous object at you when you are having an argument, He slaps you when he thinks you are being stubborn, she bites you or tries to steer the wheel in a dangerous direction when you fight… Whatever your situation is, physical abuse is a valid reason to quit your relationship.<br/><br/>It is not healthy for you and except you are both hoping to end up dead, then you should leave right now.<br/><br/>5.Makes you unsafe- Your relationship should be your safe haven. If you are not safe in your relationship and it is the last place you want to be every time, it means you need to leave like yesterday.<br/><br/>Your partner should be your team mate, the one person who cheers you on and always has your back. Not someone who makes you feel awful all the freaking time and who makes your relationship somewhere you always want to run from.<br/><br/>6.Disrespect- If your spouse loves and cares about you, then they would never disrespect you.<br/><br/>If your man/woman never respects you in your relationship then time is now to leave.<br/><br/>7.Never carries you along- And I mean from him/her hanging out every Friday night to making key decisions in his life without your knowledge.<br/><br/>Most times, we think its okay if our partner doesn’t tell us his/her plans for the weekend and several pictures surface days later to show he/she has been hanging with the buds.<br/><br/>Not like you should be updated every second, but knowing where your partner is, is very important and someone who wouldn’t tell you about things as simple as Friday night plans is not likely to include you when planning something big.<br/><br/>Oh trust me, it works like that.<br/><br/>He/she doesn’t let you in on the small stuff? then you would be surprised by the big stuff too!<br/><br/>There are more things an individual should not put up with in relationships, share your thoughts on other things you think should be a no-no and a valid reason to walk.

6 Things Guys Think When They See You Nekked ...

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/niude.jpg"><img alt="niude" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-684" height="127" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/niude.jpg" width="168" /></a><br/><br/>You've been seeing each other for a few weeks. You packed your toothbrush in hopes this date leads to an overnighter. So, what does he think when he sees you nekked for the first time?<br/><br/>1."She looks amazing."<br/>It doesn't matter how many other women a guy has seen nekked. The first time you get undressed in front of him he's going to respond like a kid unwrapping a Christmas present. He's likely been wondering what you look like nekked for quite some time, and no matter how much he's thought of it the reality is always going to be better than the fantasy.<br/><br/>2."Keep your sh*t together."<br/>There may be some anxiety on the guy's end. He may temporarily become self-conscious about his own body issues (yes, we have those too) or worry about his ability to perform at peak stamina or skill. He may also be a bit over-excited by seeing you nekked for the first time and doesn't want to give that away either.<br/><br/>3."Take a mental snapshot."<br/>He's going to want to remember this. If he forgets in the mind-blowing, glorious moment that is seeing you nekked for the first time, he will get around to taking a mental snapshot sometime soon. This isn't a casual, "Hope I remember this." It's him summoning some foreign aspect of his brain that acts as a camera to insure he doesn't forget the shape of your body.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>4."Those are amazing br3asts/n!pples."<br/>Each pair of br3asts are unique. Maybe one of your br3asts is smaller than the other. Or you have very long n!pples. Or surprisingly large areolae. Whatever it may be that the guy notices as "different" is not bad! In fact, new is often good and exciting. Just don't be surprised if your new guy seems to focus more of his attention there that night rather than other parts of your body. What may be your insecurity, might just be his favorite thing.<br/><br/>5."What in the world is that tattoo doing there?"<br/>If you have a hidden tattoo on, say, your bikini line his mind will immediately go to it and try to figure it out. The fact that you got it in an area you normally keep covered makes us think there's some deeper message attached, one that you wouldn't want people asking you about when they saw it on your arm, for example. Don't be surprised if he asks you within the hour after he first sees it; he's been trying to figure it out since the moment he laid eyes on it.<br/><br/>6."Oh man, I'm lucky."<br/>I have never met a man who sees someone nekked for the first time and turns to his friend the next day and says, "Her body was not nearly what I was hoping it would be." Quite the opposite. The first, second, and millionth time you strip down in front of him he will be counting his lucky stars. So don't worry about a thing; he's going to be excited to see you in all your glory.

You Can Tell if a Guy's Cheating Just by Using this single trick!

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/kinugu1.jpg"><img alt="kinugu" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-677" height="183" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/kinugu1.jpg" width="275" /></a><br/><br/>At one point or another, we've all wished we had psychic powers so we could know for sure whether or not our partner was cheating on us. Ideally, you trust your partner and red flags would never indicate that might be happening, but sometimes you date someone and some small part of you thinks, Maybe? Now there's a new study to help you out [via PSMag].<br/><br/>Brigham Young University psychologists studied 51 undergraduates (35 women, 16 men) who were in romantic relationships and asked them about their relationships, including whether or not they'd ever cheated.<br/><br/>Then they videotaped conversations between the couples and asked unbiased third parties to watch the videos and decide if one, both, or neither of the members of each couple had ever cheated. Their judgments were shockingly accurate.<br/><br/>Research team leader Nathaniel Lambert said of the study:<br/><br/>"I was personally amazed about what could be surmised about people after watching them on a video for just a few minutes," said Lambert. "First, I couldn't believe how consistent the observers were with each other at independently rating who they thought were cheating on their romantic partner. Second, I was surprised by how often they were right on the mark."<br/><br/>Lambert says it makes sense the ability to sense these things could come from basic evolution, since the ramifications of cheating can vary from financial to physical to emotional, so chances are, you don't need to be a genius to know if he's cheating on you. Just trust your gut, or your friend's gut. According to this study, they're probably right.<br/><br/>Via Cosmopolitan

10 Ways to Make the Best of a Terrible Date!

<img alt="" class="irc_mut" height="393" src="https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ5t_4Ngz_8fXZXH3jWYu6e0nS-9DJBAyapC0tjJM7_2o3GYi4r" style="margin-top: 0px;" width="591" /><br/><br/>1. Try every weird drink on the menu. Chocolate rum mudslide? Sure why not. Mango mojito? Down the hatch. Instead of hearing someone drone on about their day, you can hear someone drone on about their day and broaden your horizons.<br/><br/>2. Take a shot every time they ask you a typical small talk question. You might not have fun but at least you'll be drunk by the time they say, "So this weather, huh?"<br/><br/>3. Eat nachos. You're already out, and a day with nachos is never a bad day. Gandhi said that. No, sorry. I meant Guy Fieri.<br/><br/>4. Drag them to that movie no one else wants to see with you. The Zac Efron guilty pleasure you can't get anyone to go watch with you? Now you can go see it without looking like a creepy loner. Bonus: You're not supposed to talk during the whole thing.<br/><br/>5. See how long you can push the uncomfortable silence. Embrace it. Turn it into a game. Can you stare at a virtual stranger for five minutes without speaking? We shall see!<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>6. Treat it like a therapy session. You've already decided you're never going to see them again, so why not tell them all your terrible secrets and politically incorrect opinions. Just vent to them. You'll feel better and they'll be left a broken shell of the person they once were, but at least you'll be pretty much guaranteed they won't send you a text at 2 a.m. next week like, "hey wut r u up 2??"<br/><br/>7. Make friends with the waitress. If you make it really obvious you're on a first date and it's not going well, you might be able to score some free breadsticks. Maybe she'll even come over and hang out with you while you desperately try to avoid conversation with this guy.<br/><br/>8. Network. You might not have a love connection, but maybe you can have a business connection. It's worth a shot.<br/><br/>9. Go to some weird fusion restaurant. If you're not worried about making a good first impression, you might as well go try that place that combines Buffalo wings and cereal. What's the worst that could happen?<br/><br/>10. Have meaningless s3x. Your date might be a boring human, but if you're at least physically attracted to them, you can end your dry spell.<br/><br/>-cosmo

5 Things You Should Stop Saying In Bed.......

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/bedphoto.jpg"><img alt="bedphoto" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-640" height="213" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/bedphoto-300x213.jpg" width="300" /></a><br/><br/>1. “Was It Really Good For You Today?”<br/><br/>This quote can get nipped in the bud right now. If you have to ask the question, “Was that good for you?” — all signs point to that answer not being too good, Well, in bed – if it was good for her – she’ll most likely be screaming and moving spastically as well, so you won’t need to ask, either.<br/><br/>2. “Have Never Done This”<br/><br/>This one is kind of vague, but can only really allude to two things:<br/><br/>As in sleep with a girl on the first night, which means – in the most respectful way possible – that you simply lack that next-level caliber of game. Or “You never do this,” as in you’ve never slept with a girl, which means you’re a virgin. For the lady you’re with, I feel like hearing that probably feels like paying for sushi and learning after you ate it that the guy was watching a YouTube tutorial called, “So it’s your first time rolling sushi, huh?” behind the bar.<br/><br/>3. No One Should Know About This.<br/><br/>Don’t have sex if you can’t deal with the girl geotagging her Instagram from last night with your apartment building.” It’s the same premise.<br/><br/>4. This Won’t Happen Again.<br/><br/>If this “can’t happen again” because you have a girlfriend – keep it to yourself.<br/><br/>If this “can’t happen again” because, I don’t know, it was terrible – just keep that to yourself, too. Whatever the reason, there’s zero rationale to vocalize how “it can never happen again.” Just don’t do it again. You know?<br/><br/>5. That Was The Best Have Ever Had<br/><br/>If the sex was legitimately the best you’ve ever had, and you’ve rated each sexual encounter you’ve ever had and cross compared them all – then, maybe, and I mean maybe, you could freely drop this line in bed. Otherwise, I don’t respect the overrating.

10 Reasons Why Guys Who Dance Make The Coolest Boyfriends Ever..

There’s no first date awkwardness around them. They wouldn’t take their date out to a fancy (read: boring) restaurant. They’d rather go out dancing. The dance floor is a great ice-breaker and that almost always makes sure there is a second date.<br/><br/>2. Because they know what it takes to surf against the tide and make a career out of something so unconventional, they don’t expect their girlfriends to conform to any sort of conventions. They’re much more understanding and supportive than most other men.<br/><br/>3. They’re fun people who like to celebrate every important event in their lives. They will always be up for partying all night on birthdays or celebrating festivals the grand way.<br/><br/>4. Weddings and parties are double the amount of fun for women when they have a dancing partner. They aren’t the kinds who act spoilsports standing in a corner, scoffing at people dancing or the kinds who are just too shy to mingle with people. They’d join their girlfriends instead and dance the night away.<br/><br/>5. They are the life of every party. They own the spotlight. When they dance, the world watches. And, which girl doesn’t like popular guys who have everybody’s attention all the time?<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>6. There is not a single boring moment around them. They know how to make even spending lazy, unproductive days at home super fun. They will just put on some foot-tapping music and dance till they drop.<br/><br/>7. The only motivation for a dancer to stick to his goals despite how the world sees it is his undying zeal. Not just while dancing, they are passionate people by heart. And, they display immense levels of confidence too. And, there cannot possibly be a bigger turn on for a woman than confidence in a man.<br/>8. Needless to say, a dancer is much fitter and agile than the average man. He dresses up better, exercises regularly, has got immense physical strength and of course, a set of abs that would leave every girl drooling.<br/><br/>9. Men who can dance just know how to flirt on the dance floor. They really know how to make their girl feel special in front of a hundred others. Girls simply love it when their boyfriends take them to the dance floor and set it on fire.<br/><br/>10. They’re the most uninhibited people ever. They love themselves for who they are and there is not even so much of an iota of pretence in their personalities. They’re carefree, chilled out and true to themselves.

The 6 types of men that always cheat!

But if your guy isn't too attached to his mother and has a tumultuous relationship with her, you can bet that he isn't the kinds who will stay around for too long (think Charlie Harper from Two and a Half Men). If you've heard him talk badly of her (even though he's only known you for a short while) or even if he insults or yells at her when you're around, he doesn't respect her and neither will he respect you.<br/>2.The mystery man: His mysteriousity may be the reason you fell for him in the first place, but if he is secretive at all times, gets jumpy when you as much as touch his phone and has an empty message folder - cheater alert! People who cheat are secretive about things, he will never tell you where he is going or what he has been upto. But yes, he will love knowing all about you. He is a good listener because he doesn't want to talk anyway.<br/>3.Affection, what's that? He can charm you in a matter of seconds and flirt in such a way it will make you melt into a blubbery mess, but when it comes to affection he is aloof. He's excellent at physical intimacy but if a block of wood has more emotion that he does, you better run, because he isn't going to be around for too long.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>4.Honey, I forgot! If he forgets to show up on dates or calls to cancel last minute, he is definitely a cheater. He probably had a better option than you, someone who he doesn't have to go to watch a chick flick with or go shopping with and so he royally dumped you at the last moment. Steer clear of such guys, all they are is trouble.<br/>5.Possessive and protective: He loves to control you; he likes to know where you are without giving out his own info. This guy is just trying to make sure where you are so you don't bump into him with someone else. But he is never going to tell you where he is. If your boyfriend asks you to stop hanging out with certain friends at the start of a relationship, it is time to get a reality check on him.<br/>6.He keeps you a secret: This one's a sure shot giveaway, he wants to keep the relationship a secret until it's the 'right time'. So you've never met any of his friends, but he's met yours. This is probably because he wants to make sure he knows there faces, lest he bump into them with his other girlfriend. His facebook status is single and if a girl flirts with him, you only assume she is doing so because she isn't aware he is taken.

Who knew an “R” could be rolled that way!<br/><br/>9. Foreigners are oh-so-sophisticated. Whether they grow up on a farm, in the city, poor or rich, they just have an air of sophistication about them.  They simply can’t help it!<br/><br/>8.  He thinks I am fascinating. When we met in Ireland, he didn’t realize how completely common I am in my home country… too late now!<br/><br/>7.  I have an open-ended excuse to travel.

See #9 above… Need I say more?<br/><br/>3.  Chocolate and more chocolate. I finally have an excuse to indulge in that high quality chocolate (the kind that melts in your mouth like nothing else in the world) that he can’t live without!<br/><br/>2.  I love a challenge. Who would want to have a simple, normal, easy relationship? Especially after our children arrived, things got really challenging (and it wasn’t the decision of whether to use cloth or disposable – that decision was the easiest: cloth!).<br/><br/>1. True Love! It just couldn’t be any other way! Meeting in Ireland, breaking up in Versaille for an excruciating 10 minutes, meeting the families, being separated for a year to finish college… it was all worth it and made our relationship even stronger.  After all of that, there was no way I could let him go, ever!

That's when a friends-with-benefits situation can work and everyone can experiment with relationships as they grow up.<br/><br/>But you aren't in school anymore and grown, masculine, mature men want feminine women. They want to feel like they have to be on their best behavior to impress a date. Men fall in love when they feel that a certain woman pushes them to be a better man. And the best way to do this is to be a classy, elegant, confident lady who doesn't accept "hang-out buddies with perks" as a substitute for a real relationship.<br/><br/>Lie #2: Men Hate Emotional Women<br/><br/>We've all heard how men shut down when a woman gets emotional. Most of us have been referred to as irrational and even crazy. However, men don't hate emotional women, they just hate when a woman can't communicate her feelings in a safe, simple, direct way. Communication in relationships is key. What men want is to feel like they can hear you, understand what comes out of your mouth and then help you to feel better. When a man can soothe a woman's feelings, he feels on top of the world. But when he feels overwhelmed by tears and screaming, he feels like a failure and withdraws.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>Lie #3: Men Love Mystery<br/><br/>This is one of the biggest misinterpretations of the dating world. Men don't want to be left wondering who you really are and what you're actually doing when you elusively say you're "just busy." Keeping a man interested by keeping him feeling uncertain is not going to lead to love. What men want is to be caught up in the mystery of your femininity. Men love how foreign we can seem: all those beauty products, so much empathy and softness, such ease in expressing vulnerability, such luscious sensuality. Feminine mystique is the kind of mystery a man loves.<br/><br/>Lie #4: Men Don't Appreciate Smart, Funny Women<br/><br/>There is a time and a place for certain types of jokes. If your jokes are more spiteful and raunchy than endearing and goofy, maybe you need to step back and take a better look at yourself. What men want is to feel emotionally safe with a woman and have a good time with her. If your sense of humor puts him on the defensive, then he's not going to appreciate your humor.<br/><br/>Lie #5: Men Only Want What They Can't Have<br/><br/>This goes along with the lie that men love mystery. A mature, commitment-friendly man who is looking for a wife and wants a family isn't interested in chasing your skirt. He wants to know you more. Men who only want what they can't have are unaccountable boys.<br/><br/>What men want is to feel like the women they date have worth. And that starts with your self-worth. If you respect yourself and you politely and kindly demand only his best behavior, a great man will scramble to please you and will work hard to take you off the market. She doesn't have to play games.

4 Reasons You're a Girlfriend and Not a Wife...

<img alt="" class="irc_mut" height="390" src="https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRxAhSPdbAscLf6dDQ1X-6LM9zi5NgPTMfrGhPws6d4wOxM22AV" style="margin-top: 2px;" width="832" /><br/><br/>1.If your relationship is built upon s3x instead of an emotional connection, it's more likely you'll remain girlfriend status. One of the reasons online dating actually works is due to the long emails and getting to know each other well prior to intimacy. If you think the guy is someone you really like, take your time with s3x (take your time with it in all situations; women who have s3x when they feel best about it are much happier).<br/>2.You move in with them in hopes it will turn into something more. Living with someone may be cheaper, but it's not the best situation. Women are wired to be heart creatures and although work is important, women thrive on emotional connection. Women who live with their partner prior to marriage are creating a living-together scenario that they believe will lead to marriage. Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. Keep your own place. It's the best money you'll ever spend.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>3.Weak boundaries and always being there at his whim. When you make your life about someone else and no longer invest in your own interests or priorities, you're setting yourself up to be taken advantage of. People born into homes with poor boundaries never have structure, personal space, or respect for one another. Clingers or needy women tire their partner. Keep your own goals, interests and dreams intact. Don't change your life to accommodate theirs, and encourage them with your upbeat behavior to aspire to yours.<br/>4.women are s3xy to insecure men. Women tell me frequently they are passive, quiet or dishonest because they don’t want to upset their boyfriend. What? Lying to your partner is not okay, and if you feel the need to lie, you're not in a positive relationship. Advocate and stand up for yourself and your needs. Strong, smart women do not intimidate men who are secure in themselves.

3 Common Mistakes When Looking For Love....

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/fake-orgs.jpg"><img alt="fake orgs" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-524" height="225" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/fake-orgs-300x225.jpg" width="300" /></a><br/><br/>1. You break your own rules.<br/>How many times have you changed your mind on a date and let yourself be persuaded to break your own rules? The rule I see women break the most often is about when to have s3x. You know what I’m talking about. You’ve determined that you won’t go to bed with a man until you both agree to be monogamous.<br/><br/>You’ve promised yourself not to sleep with a man who is also sleeping with other women. But, as soon as you begin to date a man you’re attracted too, you get caught up in the moment and like an impressionable young girl, you give in. You get intimate too soon with a man you could really care about. It changes everything and you’ve hardly gotten to know each other. Breaking this rule rarely works out in the long run.<br/><br/>Here are some other rules you might find yourself breaking:<br/><br/>You pursue him instead of being patient<br/>You give more attention to him than he’s giving to you<br/>You lose yourself and make his needs more important than your own<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>2. You don’t fix what’s not working.<br/>Human beings tend to like the familiar. We have a comfort zone we find hard to leave unless we’re really pushed. Life-changing experiences like illness or a car accident will propel you to make new and daring choices. But when life is just going along as usual, you can get lazy and avoid making the changes you need to be more successful with men.<br/><br/>One example is the fear of “making waves” in a relationship. Instead of speaking up for yourself, which can be a real challenge, you’ll go with the flow to keep the peace. Or if you’re used to having your guard up around men, you don’t risk being hurt by allowing yourself to be vulnerable. You just stick to being the way you’ve always been because it’s easier than facing the fear of the change you need to make.<br/><br/>3. You haven’t handled your subconscious sabotage.<br/>We all have subconscious sabotage; it keeps us eating too much, buying what we don’t need and pushing good men away. Yet, it’s something you can change once you become aware of it. The subconscious controls your habitual ways of being in relationships. For example, it will show up as a lack of self-worth or confidence, which makes it hard for you to set boundaries.<br/><br/>You have to recognize what the habitual thoughts are that aren’t working for you and change them. When a subconscious belief that is hurting you is made conscious (when you become aware of it) it will get “neutralized” and no longer “run you.” There are many ways to get at your subconscious beliefs, but three excellent ones are hypnotherapy, coaching, and guided imagery.<br/><br/>Looking for love is a serious business. If you’re really serious about looking for love, you have to take the bull by the horns and do these three things. They will require courage. You have to stop breaking your own rules, change the things you do that you know aren’t working, and finally, find out how you’ve been subconsciously sabotaging your relationships.<br/><br/>If you take your search for a good man seriously and do these 3 things — when you find him, you’ll know exactly what to do to keep him.

40 and single???maybe you are telling yourself these 6 lies......

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/single-n-happy.jpg"><img alt="single n happy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-518" height="183" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/single-n-happy.jpg" width="276" /></a><br/><br/>1.All the good men are taken.<br/><br/>This is what I hear most frequently from clients. However, thinking about this statistically, there just has to be good single men available since half the adult population in the U.S. is single. Men get divorced for the same reason women do; they grew apart from their wives, their wives cheated or circumstances just changed. Some men had their heart broken earlier in life and are just recovering and ready now. There are lots of reasons why good men are single and looking for a woman like you. The fact is that now, more than any other time in history, there are a lot of people in their 40s, 50s and 60s who are single and looking for love. So don’t believe that there are no good men out there!<br/>2.I already had my one shot at love.<br/><br/>Widows often believe this, particularly if they had a wonderful relationship with their husbands. They come away thinking that they will never find such a good man again. However, this is exactly the reason why it is possible; if you found great love once, you can certainly do it again. You have the track record for success. Consider your circumstances differently and recognize that you are a magnet for love, since your energy is filled with loving thoughts from your past.<br/>3.Looking for love is not worth the trouble.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>Dating is tough and you may reach a point when you feel that it is too exhausting and too much effort. But that feeling is just a symptom of your belief that you don’t think it’s possible to find love. On the other hand, if you really believe that you will find love, then you know every man you meet brings you one step closer to finding the right man for you. I dated 30 men in 15 months to find my adorable husband. Was I ever sad, disappointed or disgusted? Of course! But I would remind myself that I was on the path to find love and nothing was going to get in my way. So nothing did. It took dating 30 men, but it was completely worth every bad date and heartbreak along the way. Dating is a process.<br/><br/>4.Be in it to win and find the love you deserve.<br/>If the guy’s not a 10, I can’t be bothered. If you feel this way, you will surely be single for a long time! After 40, the chances of Mr. Right knocking on your door are zero. You are going to have to get off the couch and do your part to cross paths with lots of men. Dating is a numbers game so the more men you meet, the better your chances for finding the love you want. Will every man you meet be perfect? Of course not! Most of the men you meet will not be right. But you don’t need them to be because you only need one. In addition, no man is perfect (and neither are you). The perfect man does not exist; he is a myth and a fairytale. However, I guarantee there is a man who is the right one for you. Get over this idea of perfection or you will stay single.<br/>5.He’s not as great as my girlfriends.<br/><br/>I’m often surprised when a woman compares the men she dates to her girlfriends. Seriously? How could a man ever compare to your girlfriends? Men are not like women! They are dramatically different. We are not brought up the same, we have different innate skill sets and our brains are wired differently. We may be equals, but that does not make us the same. Expecting a man to be like your girlfriends means he is bound to fail. Most men will never be as thoughtful or have the same depth of understanding as your girlfriends. However, that doesn’t mean that men don’t have their own amazing contribution to make to your life. The right man expands and enhances your life in ways your girlfriends never will. My advice is to let go of this idea, because it will prevent you from finding the love you want.<br/>6.Most men are liars, cheats and players.<br/><br/>Women who have been burned by a man (or know people who have) tend to believe this, which I can understand. As your dating coach, I ask you to consider whether it can really be true that all men are like this. Mathematically, it is just not possible. There are definitely men who do not cheat, lie or refuse to settle down. Personally, I found a man who is not like that, and I have many clients who have also found a fabulous, moral guy. When you believe that all men are terrible, you will look for evidence that your viewpoint is correct. If you believe men are wonderful, you will see examples to support that. Start looking for examples of quality men and you will notice that they are all around you.<br/><br/>-psychcentral.com

7 Reasons Why Moving In With Your Partner Isn't A Good Idea!

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/couch-sex.jpg"><img alt="couch sex" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-509" height="300" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/couch-sex-191x300.jpg" width="191" /></a><br/><br/>1. The Ugly Truth Of Live-In Relationships<br/>It has been seen by relationship counselors that compared to married couples, cohabiting couples argue more, have more trouble resolving conflicts, are more insecure about their partners' feelings, and have more problems related to their future goals.<br/><br/>2. The Mystery Fades<br/>Once you move in together, whatever sense of mystery you had about the other person quickly begins to drizzle away. You (unfortunately) can see her putting on face packs and bleach on her face, looking like a ghoul while she can hear you crapping out loud after the first cup of coffee. And while that's exactly what will happen after marriage too, somehow the level of commitment in a live-in might not be enough to endure all the good, bad and the ugly of your partner.<br/><br/>3. The s3x Magic Disappears<br/>When two people are dating, their chemistry gets deeper as their s3x gets better. But when you live together, the s3x doesn't get prioritized as it should be - because you know you will both be around tomorrow night, and the next night, and the next. A little tired after work? Want to catch up on that novel? Suddenly s3x can wait. And wait ... and wait .... and waaaaaait...<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>4. Increased Dependency<br/>People get very used to each other after moving in together. And while int!macy is a great thing, too much of it is actually harmful to the relationship and for the couple's mental well being. Increased dependency creates more room for fights as people start expecting a lot from their partners.<br/><br/>5. Mismatched Lifestyles Come Into Play<br/>When you don't live together, all of those differences between the two of you are part of why you like the other person. But suddenly when you're dealing with her grumpy mornings, or his messy habits, those differences make for some really, really compelling and batshit crazy fights.<br/><br/>6. The Inertia Effect<br/>Once a couple is living together, it's more difficult for them to break up because of the greater investment. This is known as The Inertia Effect. This is problematic when it forces people who are not healthy partners, to become more committed to each other and enter into a negative spiral.<br/><br/>7. The Move Towards Marriage Quickens<br/>There is a strong pressure from at least one partner to culminate the live in by entering the wedlock. Living in is recognized as a strong predictor of marriage, in part because people get so used to each other. However, if even one partner isn't ready, it takes a very heavy toll on the relationship.<br/><br/>So, what should it be? Should you move in with your partner, or not? As in most cases, the answer depends on you and your partner, but it's important to know what you are getting into before it takes a toll on your bond!

How Much Time Should You Spend With Your Partner???

For example, women tend to spend more and more time with their romantic partners, and at the same time decrease the amount of time spent with their best friends.<br/><br/>Intimacy Overload: When friends complain they never see you anymore, and family wonders where you’ve been, know that it is essentially important to find that balance!<br/><br/>2.Avoid Overdependence on Each Other<br/>Many people get dependent on their partners for all their needs; their social life starts revolving around them, their weekends comprise only of their partners and themselves, and their only friend becomes their him/her – this actually becomes a dangerous level of intimacy and results in both partners becoming overly dependent on each other. It also creates over expectations, thereby threatening to destroy the fragile fabric of relationships. Depend on one another but ensure that you maintain your level of independence too.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>3.You and Your Partner Need Time Sans One Another<br/>Time spent alone is only as valid as your other needs. Many people benefit by engaging in activities they love to do by themselves, or with their buddies, away from their partners! Even though the relationship means a lot to you, engaging in a little bit of self-care is equally important.<br/><br/>4.Keep the Balance<br/>Spending a healthy amount of couple time is essentially about finding a balance in which both partners are happy with the time they spend together, are maintaining hearty friendships and family relationships are progressing towards their professional goals, and giving the relationship a chance to flourish.  Needless to say, that’s a lot to getting balance right!<br/><br/>-mensxp

5 Reasons Why You Should End Your On- Off Relationship Now!

<img alt="Reasons Why You Should End Your On- Off Relationship Now" id="ed-img" src="http://media.mensxp.com/media/content/2014/Jul/reasonswhyyoushouldendyouronoffrelationshipnow3_1406006334.jpg" title="Reasons Why You Should End Your On- Off Relationship Now" /><br/><br/>1. It Has Been Clinically Proven To Be Disastrous<br/>Evidence from psychology suggests that a pattern of separations and reconciliations is toxic to both relationship and personal well-being. The more frequently couples cycle back and forth between being together and being apart, the more their relationships tend to deteriorate to involve negative interactions, less satisfaction, and less commitment.<br/><br/>2. It Makes You More Vulnerable<br/>People involved in on-again/off-again relationships have conflicting emotions when it comes to their relationship decisions. They might care about the other person, but the relationship ends up hurting them.  Instead of deciding at once to put an end to things, they give into their partner’s reassurances of changing their behavior and participate in a reunion that again leads to disappointment and ends up hurting them, once again.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>3. You Cannot Rationalize Bad Behavior<br/>There are some characteristics of your partner that can be worked upon. However, there are some that you just can’t compromise on. If this person is a serial cheater, or consumes drugs, or is involved in anything fundamentally incorrect, you shouldn’t give them a second chance. If there’s something about this person that upsets you, no matter how beautiful your relationship is, you should make a firm resolve to never get back to them.<br/><br/>4. Don’t Get Addicted To The Adrenaline Rush That Comes With It<br/>One woman recently confided in the author that she loves on-off relationships just for the thrill that comes with it. She found normal relationships boring, and constantly designed fights with her partner just to feel the intense highs and lows in her relationships. This type of behavior is not just self destructive, but can also wreak havoc to the other partner’s feelings. If there are set reasons why you and your partner break up continuously, then there rare high chances that the circumstances will not change, and you need to put an end to things.<br/><br/>5. You Cannot Put Up With A Bad Relationship Just Because You Are Used To Them<br/>Comfort can be kryptonite when it comes to on-and-off relationships. Many of us have stayed in or returned to toxic relationships simply because they are familiar and preferable to being alone. However, it is time to understand that you can always get a better, more deserving partner. Anyone can find a more compatible person if they wish to.  Never fool yourself into believing that this relationship is the best thing that could have happened to you. Another word of advice: A lot of people waste time thinking that they can stay friends after a breakup, however the best way to move out of an On-Off Relationship is to strictly cut off all communication.

10 Signs Your Girl Might Be A Gold Digger...

<img alt="" height="301" id="irc_mi" src="http://africapublic.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/gold-digger.jpg" style="margin-top: 46px;" width="450" /><br/><br/>1. She Is Excessively Interested In What You Do For Living & Your Financial Status<br/>It is quite common for a person to ask about your work and what you do. When two people talk to each other, a lot of the conversations will be about work and your interests. However, when she is just looking for your cash, you will find that there is a level of obsession taking place.<br/><br/>Typically, unless the two of you are very serious, she should not be interested in your financial status. When she starts asking about how much you make, when you will move up in a company or what your current debt levels are, the girl is simply too interested in cash.<br/><br/>The only exception to this rule would be someone in the same field as you that simply wants to see if their salary is aligned with what a man receives.<br/><br/>2. She Lacks Any Career Aspirations<br/>Aspirations are something that every person must have. In fact, you had an aspiration to find out of if your woman is a gold digger or not.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, we are no longer living in a time where women will not work, or at least think about it. The reality is that she will likely have to work and you should not be with her if all you are is an ATM machine.<br/><br/>If she has no career aspirations and would rather stay at her dead-end job instead of bettering herself, chances are you would be supporting her throughout the relationship.<br/><br/>3. She Asks For Expensive Gifts<br/>Have you heard the expression “it’s the thought that counts?” Well, when giving a woman a gift, she should never ask the price or ask for a more expensive alternative.<br/><br/>If her birthday or a special holiday is coming up and she asks for an really pricey gift, she is simply in it for the money. You never want to be with a lady that asks or demands costly gifts.<br/><br/>If she loves and respects you, she will be happy with a gift of both $5 or $5,000 value.<br/><br/>4. She Gets Mad If She Does Not Get What She Wants<br/>A woman that goes ballistic or gives you a guilt trip when she doesn’t get what she wants will simply get worse over time. Unfortunately, this is a sign that is so evident that you will want to run the other way.<br/><br/>There is no price tag attached to love and if she can’t handle not getting what she wants in a mature manner, it is not worth the effort to stay with her.<br/><br/>5. She Is Always In Financial Trouble/Crisis<br/>Financial crisis is a little tricky to discern when it comes to a detecting whether she is just after your cash. A person that just lost their job may be in a money crisis, but they are not necessarily after your finances.<br/><br/>However, if she has a good job but is always broke, you may have a woman that simply has no financial responsibility. This will lead to her asking you for cash, or if your relationship gets serious, she will be the one causing debt and leading you to financial instability.<br/><br/>Younger girls may have budgeting issues, but older women should not. If she can’t control her spending habits, she may just be using you for money.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>6. Her Friends Are Gold-diggers As Well<br/>You can tell a lot about a woman by meeting people from her closest circle. If a girl has a lot of friends that are only after men for their money, she will likely have this same attitude.<br/><br/>People attract others that they have things in common with. If her buddies, especially her best friend, is a gold-digger, you need to tread lightly.<br/><br/>Keep In Mind: While she may not emulate her friends, many women do in this regard.<br/><br/>7. She Never Wants To Pay For Anything<br/>Traditionally, men pay for the bill, but times are changing. While you may do so when going out to a fancy restaurant or when you invite her to go out to eat, you should not be the one paying the bill if you go out for a cup of coffee or she wants to stop for a snack when you are not hungry.<br/><br/>The idea that you have to pay for everything is simply fading away. If she demands or asserts that you must be the payer of all bills, she is stuck in a time that no longer exists. It is okay to pay for the bill, but it should never be something that is always done or expected by her.<br/><br/>8. She Is A Clothes-Brand Freak<br/>How much do brands matter to you? Like most men, you probably do not pay much attention to the brands that you wear. Women, on the other hand, may like a certain brand that scream expensive.<br/><br/>Gucci, Prada and various others cost more than some people’s entire weekly paycheck. If she is wearing only the best of the best brands and will not settle for less, she may feel entitled or she may be unwilling to choose items that are less expensive.<br/><br/>9. She Does Not Use Words Like Please & Thank You Too Much<br/>“Please” and “thank you” are simply words that mean a lot when they are said. When you break down this meaning, you will see why these are so important to a person.<br/><br/>Please – Asking for an item in a polite manner shows respect and general courtesy. This is asking for something versus demanding.<br/>Thank You – Appreciative in nature, the words “thank you” indicate that a person is appreciative of an action you took.<br/><br/>If she does not say these two words, she simply expects things to be done for her and doesn’t respect you or your feelings.<br/><br/>10. She Is Obsessed With Acquiring High Social Status<br/>Social status is definitely an indicator that she may be a gold digger or very high maintenance. When she wants to acquire a new level of her status, she may have an unrealistic view of who will be the one footing the bill for such an acquisition.<br/><br/>Going to a gala or driving a car that is well out of her budget are good indicators of a problem with her social status. In this case, she needs a slap of reality or she will be expecting you to pay for her way to a new level.

7 Ways to Emotionally Satisfy a Woman!!

Heart-to-heart conversations<br/>There will be times when she will drop hints on the ‘need to talk’. You have to keep your eyes open and break the ice by intiating conversation. Leave behind the four walls and go out to grab a cup of coffee or go for a morning/evening walk and speak to her. Find out about her day, talk to her about things that make her happy, take her to places where she feels at peace. All these things will make her open her heart out to you. Remember, communication is the most important part of any couple’s relationship.<br/><br/>2. Domestic support<br/>Share the responsibilities of running the household. Whether your partner is a working professional or a homemaker, she still needs your involvement at home. In fact, your involvement must increase manifolds if you have kids. Co-parenting will be comforting because she will not be the only one running around kids all the time. Your involvement at home will comfort her and will keep her emotionally happy.<br/><br/>3. Make love, not s*x<br/>Well, physical intimacy is not limited to just one goal! Snuggle up to her, pour in your emotions when you are with her, indulge in some foreplay, and put some thought into playing some fun bedroom games. This will help you cut down the monotony that might be crawling into your bedroom act. And, do not doze off after making love. According to a study in s*xual behaviour at Albright College, Pennsylvania, post-coital cuddle tops a woman’s list of to-do because at that moment she tends to become more emotional.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>4. Travel together<br/>Make the most of the times you can take off from work and family, and spend time with each other. Do not starve each other of attention. There can be no better way to shower your love and attention on her than while vacationing together. Surprise her with a weekend getaway (if you don’t have much time in hand) or plan a week-long vacation together. Travel the roads of your relationship together.<br/><br/>5. Downplay ogling<br/>If you are out with her make sure all your attention is on her. If there is a pretty woman who crosses your line of vision, it is best not to ogle. Why on earth would you spoil the evening for a glimpse of a stranger. Try to put yourself in her shoes; how would you react if she was the one staring at some other man? Ouch! Did we hear your heart sink at this very thought? Let us keep things simple, folks. You have got a beautiful woman by your side, treasure her.<br/><br/>6. Admire her<br/>Admiration is one thing that makes a woman feel happy and loved. Whether she is 25 or 50, she will always love compliments, especially when they come from you. So, admire your woman. Compliment her on her looks, her dressing style, her smile, her eyes and everything else. Go beyond the physical attributes as well. Admire her for how she takes care of you and your family, how perfect she is for you, how you love the way she looks at you and handles every problem that arises. All these things are bound to make your lady feel loved and happy.<br/><br/>7. Make her laugh<br/>A woman wants to be with a man who can make her laugh. Sense of humour is an attractive quality in men, and we all know that women really dig that. So, tickle her funny bone and she is all yours! Your woman wants you to uplift her spirits when she is not feeling too well.

5 Women Every Man Should Date At Least Once...

<img alt="Women-Every-Man-Should-Date-The-Anybody-But-Her" class="greyBg lazy" data-original="http://media.mensxp.com/media/content/2013/Sep/womeneverymanshoulddatetheanybodybuther_1380110942_652x304.jpg" height="304" id="ed-img" src="http://media.mensxp.com/media/content/2013/Sep/womeneverymanshoulddatetheanybodybuther_1380110942_652x304.jpg" style="display: inline;" title="Women-Every-Man-Should-Date-The-Anybody-But-Her" width="652" /><br/><br/>1.The Alpha Female<br/>If you believe in power play, then perhaps you should steer clear of her. She's definitely more experienced and hence, wiser too. Immaculately groomed at all times and expects no petting, she knows what she wants (bedroom, included) and it's incredibly hot! Date her at your own risk though: her success  and confidence may faze you.<br/><br/>2.The 'In' Thing<br/>She prefers staying home to cose up to you, likes house parties more than club-hopping, and cooks for your friends when they come over. She avoids drama or conflict and won't ask for an 'open' relationship. None of it sounds bad. Okay, no club-hopping sounds sad after a point. That's exactly why you would want to move on after a while.<br/><h1><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Continue Reading on Page 2 Below</strong></span></span><!--nextpage--></h1><br/>3.The Hot Hipster<br/>She's not dirty, but she's not what you can call well-groomed. She wakes up by noon (or later), stays up all night, has a carefree attitude and not a worry in the world. Your dates would probably end up in a club, accompanied by a completely sloshed night. She is not looking for a boyfriend; she's looking for a party-buddy. Don't expect a long-term relationship, but a lot of fun in that short period is guaranteed.<br/><br/>4.The 'Friend'<br/>You have spent nights talking to her about the new hot chick in your office, and she has given you tips on how to score her. You've always liked her, even fancied her a bit, but considered her one of your bros rather than girlfriend material. And then one night both of you get drunk and get talking, and one thing leads to another. Next morning, there can be two things: You either wake up thinking she's hot, makes you laugh and might actually be The One. Or, you'll regret that "Ek hi bhool" and ruin one of your strongest friendships.<br/><br/>5.The Anybody-But-Her<br/>Now, we are not going to define that for you. Every woman NOT in your list should be part of this. The cheeky, hot 40-something single mother, your boss, best friend's sister or even your ex-anyone off the radar fits the bill. Moral policing aside, dating someone who is totally wrong is one of the things you could indulge in once at least. Firstly, life's many important lessons can be learnt from such a liaison and secondly, what the heck! A man's gotta do what he's gotta do, right?

Age Differences – Does it Really Matter Anymore?

<a href="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/5.jpg"><img alt="5" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-404" height="200" src="http://themidnightfantasies.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/5.jpg" width="300" /></a><br/><br/>“Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.” – Mark Twain<br/><br/>The question is simple, as life expectancy goes up and people take better and better care of themselves, do traditional notions of appropriate age differences in relationships matter? Are we just making it harder on ourselves by refusing to consider potential partners who are outside our age limits? Or are the cultural similarities that occur between people of similar ages important enough to be deal-breakers?<br/><br/>Of course, if having children is in your plans and you’re a man, the age of your partner matters. There are certainly ways for older women to conceive children, but most men who want families tend to try and date women who are younger than 40.<br/><br/>Aside from that scenario, however, is there any reason that a 30-year-old woman can find love with a 37-year old and not a 44-year-old? How about a 50-year-old? Knowing that there are men of that age who are in great shape, physically attractive, interesting and successful is there a reason to categorically exclude these men?<br/><br/>Men often pursue younger women, even if they aren’t interested in a family. The typical reason being, “that’s who I’m more attracted to.” But again, the “sex appeal boundary” gets pushed out further and further as women in their 50′s and 60′s find themselves as public sex symbols. Kim Catrell of Sex in the City fame is 55. Jane Seymour is 60. Jaclyn Smith is 62. And while most people aren’t as attractive as these, it is certainly possible to meet someone significantly older who is sexy and attractive.  Is having a policy against it a good idea?<br/><br/>Women in their 50′s will often narrowly restrict their dating range because they have a fear of meeting and falling in love with an older man – and then having to deal with his health issues. Men certainly have a shorter average lifespan than women, but this doesn’t tell you anything about a particular guy. Is it wise for a woman of 55 to consider a relationship with a man who is 65 or 70?<br/><br/>Finally, there’s also the impact of “the marketplace”. Like it or not, there are ages and individuals who feel that their value in the dating world is so high that they can have success with a very narrow set of criteria. It might be easy to think of a very attractive 25-year-old man or woman saying, “I can date whomever I want, and I only want people who are within two years of my age either way.” While any person is free to do what they like when looking for a relationship, is it to the benefit of the searcher to cast in such a narrow fashion?<br/><br/>These are all interesting questions that reflect a real change in the way people age and date. What do you think?
