7 New Year's Resolutions for Couples

To that end, here are 7 suggestions for Couple Resolutions:

1) Remember first attractions - It's so easy in the general messiness of living with another person to forget about what attracted you to each other in the first place. This would be a good list to make and a good conversation to have every know and then.

It's been said by my favorite author (Author Unknown) that "When you are up to your neck in alligators, it's hard to remember the original objective was to drain the swamp."This applies here big time.

2) Fight for relationship - Couples fight sometimes. That's just part of the territory. So since you are going to fight, why not decide in advance what to for, yes? I suggest fighting for the relationship. Most folks fight to be right. Fight for the relationship.

3) Live below your means - Now I've gone from preaching to meddling, right? The happiest couples I know are not necessarily the richest couples I know. The happiest couples I know are those without significant money worries. The best way to achieve this is to live below your means.

4) Know love language - In what way does your partner best experience and feel loved? Is it actions like acts of service? Is it words? Is it being touched?

The best way to find out is to ask.

5) Speak love language - Once you know the love language of your partner, speak it. Radical notion I know, but it works. The temptation is to speak in our own love language. Often that is not the language of our partner. Know it and speak it.

6) Daily time together - I don't care if it's just 15 minutes. Couple need this time to keep the connection strong. In the hustle and bustle of each day, couple time is often the first thing to go. Schedule it if you have to, just make sure you get it in.

7) Regular date night - This could be the best couple resolution of all. You dated when you were getting together. Why stop? A regular date night allows you to spend quality couple time together, and gives you something to look forward to each week or month.

Gay marriage a threat to world peace, says Pope

VATICAN CITY (AP) -- The pope took his opposition to gay marriage to new heights Friday, denouncing what he described as people manipulating their God-given gender to suit their sexual choices - and destroying the very "essence of the human creature" in the process.

Benedict XVI made the comments in his annual Christmas speech to the Vatican bureaucracy - one of his most important speeches of the year. He dedicated it this year to promoting family values in the face of vocal campaigns in France, the US, Britain and elsewhere to legalise same-sex marriage.

In his remarks, Benedict quoted the chief rabbi of France, Gilles Bernheim, in saying the campaign for granting gays the right to marry and adopt children was an "attack" on the traditional family made up of a father, mother and children.

"People dispute the idea that they have a nature, given to them by their bodily identity, that serves as a defining element of the human being," he said. "They deny their nature and decide that it is not something previously given to them, but that they make it for themselves."

"The manipulation of nature, which we deplore today where our environment is concerned, now becomes man's fundamental choice where he himself is concerned," he said.

It was the second time in a week that Benedict has taken on the question of gay marriage, which is dividing France after proponents scored big electoral wins in the United States last month. In his recently released annual peace message, Benedict said gay marriage, like abortion and euthanasia, was a threat to world peace.

After the peace message was released last week, gay activists staged a small protest in St Peter's Square.

Church teaching holds that homosexual acts are "intrinsically disordered," though it stresses that gays should be treated with compassion and dignity. As pope and as head of the Vatican's orthodoxy watchdog before that, Benedict has been a strong enforcer of that teaching: One of the first major documents of his pontificate said men with "deep-seated" homosexual tendencies shouldn't be ordained priests.

For the Vatican, though, the gay marriage issue goes beyond questions of homosexuality, threatening what the church considers to be the bedrock of society: a family based on a man, woman and their children.

But the Vatican's opposition has been falling on deaf ears. Under then-Socialist leader Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, the largely Roman Catholic Spain legalised gay marriage. Earlier this month, the British government announced it will introduce a bill next year legalizing gay marriage, though it would ban the Church of England from conducting same-sex ceremonies.

Getting Back Your Ex Girlfriend - 3 Mistakes That Are Going to Push Her Away for Good!

There are some mistakes that you can end up making with an ex girlfriend that are really going to push her away for good. They are the kind of mistakes that you can't just take back or apologize for and they can end up being the main reason why she won't even give the idea of getting back with you a second thought. So, if you want to get your ex girlfriend back, it is a good idea to know what these mistakes are so you don't unknowingly end up making any of them.

Here are 3 mistakes that are going to push her away for good:

Being Stuck in a Bad Relationship and Afraid to Change

            You have probably heard a friend of yours carrying a monologue about her unsuccessful attempts at relationships. It might well be that few thoughts run through your mind as well, as you contemplate what stands in your way form developing a successful intimacy. Such a monologue and/or thoughts often take the following form: "I thought that developing a new relationship would help me escape my old failures. But it suddenly occurs to me that it just isn't so. That I will never be able to build a truly healthy intimate relationship. I will never be able to be totally free to express myself and be assertive. Why not? Because I don't really know, anymore, what I want. 

            I am so used to do what others want me to do, to behave the way others expect me to behave, that I don't trust myself anymore to become able to change that. And I say this all with a lot of sorrow and sadness, because I don't love myself the way I am, but I know I don't have the inner strength it takes to change it. When it comes to men I know I am too dependent on them; too needy. I need their love and I need their company. I can't do without it, without them. I can't be alone. I just can't. I know this has driven me to many unhealthy relationships and to going out with many abusive men who thought they can control me - and they did! - but still, I feel powerless to do anything about it. 

How Can I Avoid Falling Into The Friends Zone?

Great question. When you first meet someone, you are constantly scanning and checking--consciously or subconsciously--and asking yourself,"How am I doing?" You show up to the bar, club or whatever venue well groomed, smelling clean, with your best pitch ready to throw out to all those lucky ladies. You are spinning your best rap and feeling the moment with her when she suddenly says those kiss of death words, "I just want to be friends," or "I'm kind of seeing someone right now."

You have now fallen into the Friends zone.

Here's the deal, guys: You should never be thought of as "boring" or "too nice" or "as just a friend". If you are, it is because you did not build VALUE into your spiel and women...great organizers that we are...immediately plop you into the friends box.

How can you avoid this?

First: Come across as fun and playful.

Second: Take the lead and make sure everyone is having a good time. If she is with a girlfriend or two, make eye contact and speak with each of them. If you don't the ones who are left out will start looking around, turn their backs, start to fidget and then they will all bail on you.

Three: Play a game with her. If you are at a bar and drinking, tell her you bet she's had too much to drink and tell her you have a sobriety test to give her. Tell her if she passes the test, she can buy you a drink.

Hold your hand out with the palm facing up and say, "Go like this", then place your hand, palm down, just over the top of hers and tell her to slap your hand before you can take it away. If she is giggling and seems to be enjoying it, then reverse the process.

By being gentle and playful, you are not being threatening. And since you didn't just say to her, "Let's play hand tag" you didn't give her a chance to say, "No." You are taking simple, small steps.

Now, it is a well known fact that women are attention whores. That's right. We like attention and when we don't get attention, we start competing for it. So if you are successful at this maneuver, you have paid some attention to us and we like that. But if you pay attention to us and then pull away a little bit, we wonder what happened that made us lose our grip on you. So, if you just slightly, and I mean very slightly, pull away while we are all laughing and having fun with the hand tag game, watch as we move forward toward you, or watch us start playing with our hair, fidgeting or touching you.

So then you say,"Who's next? Who wants to buy me a drink next?" And wink and laugh.
When the next girl in the group says,"Me!" playfully say, "I dunno. You look pretty drunk to me. Don't know if you can tag my hand," implying the challenge. Watch how fast she grabs your hand to play!

Think Twice and Enjoy the Singles Scene

Many people are of the perception that being single is not fun. They are of the opinion that marriage or romantic relationship is always full of fun. Getting married might be one of your future plans but you should enjoy single hood while you are at it. Do not direct all your energies into finding a partner. You should take some time to enjoy the singles scene. The independence is great and you can meet as many other singles as it is possible without being answerable to any one. This means late nights with friends, exploring your sexy self and trips out and about. Take advantage of being single and travel abroad. Swim in selfishness because it is allowed when you are single.

You should learn to enjoy and embrace singles scene as it is. You do not have to enquire or consult on most of the things you do. Visit your favorite clubs and listen to your favorite genre of music. When you have a partner you do not fill the room with rock music yet he likes reggae. It is a sign of selfishness. When you are single you can afford to make yourself happy without offending any other person. You can choose to be in closed or open relationship. You are at liberty of defining your relationship. You can also eat whatever you like without inconveniencing anybody. This is the beauty of being single. You can enjoy your freedom all you can. Dating a new person every night or weekend can be one of your adventures.

If everybody around you is talking about coupling, do not be influenced in any way. Sit back, relax and watch them as they get desperate for partners as you enjoy the singles scene. You should be able to see the positive side of single hood. Stop looking for a perfect match and start enjoying life. Find singles clubs or any singles group where you can enjoy some activities together. For instance you can go watch movies with friends. Enjoy your own company because pure happiness comes from within. Do not depend on people to make you happy. Rejoice in having a candle lit dinner alone. One thing you might have noticed is that, when you stop looking for love and focus on enjoying life, you become more attractive and love finds you.

The singles scene is more interesting in the digital world. The status is more defined on online dating sites. Members write and declare their status and so you can easily find fellow singles. You get a sense of belonging every time you are among people you share something in common. If you are a single, browse through the Internet and you will be amazed by the dating facilities on the sites for singles. Approaching life with enthusiasm while you are a single makes all the people around you to get excited too. You discover new things together and enjoy every moment together without having to compromise. When love comes your way, it might end up changing everything. Enjoy your single hood so that you do not live to regret.

Why a Movie at Your House is a Better First Date Than Watching One at a Theater

Sometimes guys don't understand why inviting a woman over to your place to watch a movie is a much better idea than asking her out to watching a movie at the theater; which is understandable when you are looking at these two particular choices from a logical point of view of which one is better instead of the emotional point of view of which guy sounds better.

As a man, if given the choice between a movie at home and a movie at a theater given that everything is equal the movie theater sounds better because odds are its going to be on a bigger screen, with a better sound system, and a newer movie that you may not have seen yet.

However, most women don't go out with a guy based on where he is taking her rather she goes out with him based on what he has to offer.

When you ask a woman out to the movies at a theater you are essentially saying; "I don't really have anything to offer you so hopefully the movie will be entertaining enough for you to like me."

Yet, the man who just invites her over to watch a movie with him at his place is saying; "I am entertaining enough by my own self and don't need to prove anything to you."

Not to mention the fact that there is the whole time aspect of it as well.

Generally, movie dates at the theater are planned and give her time to think about it and whereas a movie at the house is a now type of thing which means she needs to give answer quickly and being that she doesn't want to miss out on anything the answer unless she doesn't like you or has something better to do is going to be yes.

In the end, if you really want to see a movie at the theater and cant go by yourself invite some of your friends along and then invite her to watch a movie or to do something afterward.

Does She Like Me Romantically? At Last! What She Really Wants From You Exposed

One of the biggest questions I get from my male readers is how to tell if a girl likes them romantically. Are there a series of signs, signals or hints that she likes you FAR more than as a friend? The simple truth that NO one wants you to know is that everybody is different....and different people give off signs that are NOT the same. Some are simple - some are straightforward and others are more sneaky or subtle..:-) The key to TRULY deciding whether she likes you more than as a friend is to show CONFIDENCE and simply make your move!

Confidence is Key

How to Make a Woman Love You

How to Make a Woman Love You

I'm going to shatter your hopes and dreams right here and now. There is absolutely no way that anyone can make someone else love them. If that's what you were hoping to learn you're going to be totally disappointed. HOWEVER, there are ways that you can influence women so strongly that the easiest thing in the world for them to do is to fall in love with you.

The first thing you have to do is know what NOT to do. Don't start out right away trying to impress her with your money. We all know women love money as much as we do. If you start buying gifts immediately you'll just send up a red flag in her mind. She'll be thinking that if you have to buy her affection you might want to buy something else!

Women like the game of love. They like to be chased. They like to be desired. They like to experience the feelings that the love game provides. This means that you're going to have to become an expert at the art of attraction.

Attracting a woman is a lot easier that you might think. The main thing you have to be careful about is not looking too smart for your own good. Show off a bit but if you show off too much you become a joke to them. They're looking for a refined balance of things.

Humor, confidence, excitement, and character.

Just as you prepare for a job interview you have to prepare for a love interview. Put forth the best picture of who you are and why you're the man for the job. Don't be a braggart but don't be shy either. Balance the strength within you with the tenderness and caring that we all want to share and you'll have a winning formula for lighting that bonfire of love.

How to Handle Men Not Calling - Dating Tips For Women

Men who don't call after a date is a common complaint heard from women. Actually the issue of men not calling often extends well beyond the initial stages of a relationship. Many women struggle with a boyfriend who just can't seem to dial her number on his cell phone. When it comes to men and phone calls, what exactly is going on? Why is it that men just can't seem to bring themselves to call a woman after a date?

There are many reasons for men not calling after a date. The most common reason is that the man in question is testing you. Men can tell a lot about a woman based on how she handles the issue of phone calls. If he says he'll call and then several days pass without word, he's likely just waiting to see how long you'll hold out before you'll call. If you call within the first few days and ask why he hasn't called, he'll see that as desperate. He'll think you're already putty in his hands and he will do little to try and impress you from that point forward. If you don't call him and a week passes and then another, he's going to find that much more alluring. Men are naturally inclined to want things they cannot have. If you pretend to be disinterested, he's going to be more interested.

If he does call and leaves a message you must also be mindful of how you handle this. Calling him back immediately isn't the best approach. You'll get much better results, in the form of his being really interested, if you wait a day or two to return his call. Never give a reason for why it took you so long to call back. Just say you're returning his call and let him lead the conversation. You always want to appear relaxed and unconcerned with men not calling you back. If you do, you'll be much more appealing to any man you date.

You need to always remember that men and women view phone calls, emails and text in very different ways. If you make the mistake of calling too frequently, at the wrong time or before he's ready to hear from you, you can actually turn him off. Women unwittingly ruin their chances of a future with a man because they are too over eager to hear from him. Don't let this happen to you. For more answers to the age old question of when you should and shouldn't be calling the man in your life, visit this helpful site

You may think that there's no consequence when you pick up the phone to call the man you're interested in, but there is. Men pay close attention to when women call them and they'll make assumptions about you based on that. Learn when the perfect time to contact him is so that he'll find you irresistible.

Have you ever felt as if someone from your past was still holding on to you? Or maybe you felt that you are still holding on to them? Or hope of getting them back?

Free yourself and them and allow yourself to make room for someone better to come into your life.

Consider how much more energy and focus you will have once you learn how to free yourself from the baggage of past relationships.

You can do whatever you want with this extra energy and you may find that you have made room for someone new in your life. Done correctly, you may actually release pain, anger, fear and resentment from the past and make room for someone special to come into your life.

Imagine, doing something simple and effective that makes you feel a whole lot better about yourself AND which has the added benefit of attracting someone into your life who is better suited to who you are now.

In this article I will share this simple yet powerful technique that has its roots in Shamanic ritual and native American tradition. NYC Prime Hypnosis combines powerful techniques, practices and disciplines and combines them into a user friendly approach to being your BEST SELF!

You will need and open mind and some things for this ritual :

1. Toilet tissue ( burns easier )

2. Pen

3. 30 minutes of quiet/alone time

4. A candle ( matches )

5. Bathroom with the toilet lid opened

Give yourself a few minutes to write down the name and whatever emotion you are feeling about this person from your past. Write this down on the toilet tissue ( I fold it several times and place a book underneath for easier writing )

It is best to start with the one relationship that feels like it is holding you back the most. This way you can get a feel for the ritual and how great it feels. Then the next time you can make a longer list of names and do a longer more complete ritual.

You can write something along the lines of :

"I now release ( write their name ) this person and forgive them and myself for whatever happened. We did the best we could with what we had at the time. For the best of all concerned, I honor the good times and the lessons learned. I now resolve any and all unhelpful emotions related to this person and relationship. I keep the lessons and leave the bitterness behind. I free myself and them to move on with our lives on separate paths towards happiness...and make room for someone better suited to enter into my life." etc.

You can start with just writing this and naming one person whom you feel is somehow holding you back from happiness or is somehow keeping you stuck in the past or in a destructive pattern.

The way I do this ritual is by standing in my bathroom with the toilet lid opened and lighting a candle. I make sure there is a clear space where nothing can catch fire. ( the water puts out the flames and relates to the elements in nature and in alternative healing )

Then I take my toilet tissue that I wrote on and I tear off a section of it relating to that person/relationship and I very carefully touch the paper to the candle ( which is set on the top of the toilet tank )

I take a deep breath and think of that person and feel whatever the emotion is relating to them that may have been keeping me from my full potential. Then I exhale as I touch the paper to the candle and drop it carefully into the water in the toilet bowl. You may feel as if you are releasing the unwanted or painful emotions and making room for something better.

You can see the past baggage going up in flames and smoke and then being cast into the water. There is a sizzling sound as the flames hit the water and you can see, hear and feel that something powerful is happening.

Every time I do this ritual I feel a tremendous sense of peace and serenity as well as feeling energized the next few days afterwards.

It feels as if I have let go of the past and forgiven myself and those from my past and I am thankful for the lessons as I feel a clear path in front of me that leads to greater success and happiness. There are many ways to release emotions and blockages and this is just one of the simple and effective methods that is easy enough to learn from reading.

Blow out the candle and flush the toilet and let yourself feel that same wonderful sense of peace. As if all is right with the world again.

P.S. You may be pleasantly surprised to find someone new and special entering into your life within a few weeks of performing this shamanic releasing ritual. And for some people they meet someone special even sooner!
