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

One habit worth developing, is the habit of youthfulness. Avoid the collapse of old age, where the lower abdomen protrudes, the shoulders slump, the head drops forward. That is the posture of collapse into old age. Keep the neck muscles strong and your neck long, abdominal muscles firm (inner core muscles as developed in Yoga and Pilates) to support the internal organs. The potbelly on so many men is the true reflection, not of old age, but of collapse of the vitality of youth, the surrender to gravity. To overcome it, is simply a habit of youthfulness.

According to MSN Money (Sept. 2005), not counting Higher Education, which can mount to $150,000, and not counting private schools and hospital bills, a child costs $135K ($40K/year, income) ; $185K($40-70K/year income); and $270K (70K+/year, income). Children 15-17 years old are more expensive. Expensive? Mamma mia!

Sad as are, we did alittle research on the topic of anniversaries and to our surprise we discovered some very interesting things, firstly that the word anniversary is derived from the Latin language and that it means 'to turn yearly'? So, in literal terms, anniversary is a day that commemorates or celebrates some particular day associated with a specific event.

If your thinking is all messed up then acid is going to be produced. Can you see, the foolishness of separating the mind and the body in healing? If you walk around thinking acidic, then treating the body only, is just a money spinner for the practitioner

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

If you can get in a woman's head, you can get into a woman's bed. Fact or fiction?

I consider myself to be extremely lucky for having apart from two caring and loving parents, also a brother-who entered my life three and a half years after I was born-to turn to whether I am happy or in distress.

There are 2 types of missing people: the vulnerable and the non vulnerable. A large percentage of folks who go missing will return safe and sound within 72 hours but there are still tens of thousands each year who do not. If they are of adult age, the police do little to help unless there is reason to suspect foul play.

When you were dating you carved out time for each other, no matter the pressures of everyday life. You could not fall in love without that time together. This begs the question; don’t you think to sustain that love that you must also make time for one another even now?

Most marriages that are troubled have these giver and receiver roles firmly fixed. In marriages that are happy, these roles will fluctuate between the partners regularly, depending on where the need is greatest. Where does most of your energy go during a normal day?

Can a long distance relationship really survive. How difficult is it really to keep the love alive and what can you do?

Un-communicated feelings mean squat! People don't know how you feel until you tell them how you feel. Over twenty years ago my best friend died of cancer. Randy was 41. He was successful, competent, always positive and loved and lived life to the fullest then he was gone.

Almost every woman has a story about a man who drove around for hours looking for some place and refused her entreaties to stop and ask someone for directions. To women, this seems like the ultimate display of male arrogance and stubbornness. But what if it isn't?

Have you ever asked 10 women how they really like to be kissed. I did this the other week and was suprised about the feedback.

If you're looking for an easy, fun way to add a bit of spice back into your relationship, consider flirting! It's very likely that you flirted a lot at the beginning of your relationship, as you first got to know one another, and for a while thereafter. Flirting is a very basic human action.

Pen pals are gradually becoming more technology savvy. Days are gone when people used to write letter to their pen pals. The approach was very personal. People used to receive letters written on attractive stationery from their pen pals. Recipients would be so overjoyed when they saw a letter from their pen pals in the mailbox. It was a real treat. People share their thoughts, joys and sorrows with their pen pals through letters. But, with the introduction of Internet, handwritten letters have become quite an obsolete phenomenon. Email has pretty much replaced handwritten letters.

Here are some simple ways to induce romance in your own life or to pleasure your love mate...

All couples desire a happy and fulfilled marriage. The way a person interacts with their partner is important to achieve this harmony. Demonstrating feelings and expressing emotions helps partners establish a strong foundation for their relationship. Gestures such as giving gifts play an important role in this context. Romantic gifts are never the same for everyone. It is important for each individual to discover the best gifts at each stage of a relationship and learn how to select unforgettable gifts. A romantic gift should essentially communicate inner feelings and make the partner’s heart melt. When it comes to giving a romantic gift to someone, it’s not just about what the item is, but how it is given and how relevant the gift is to the personality of the recipient.

Okay, you have had a few hard times, but every one of those times, you've been able to work things out, so why not this time? Did he really love you? Is there someone else?

We all belong to a community of one sort or another. Nursing home - Assisted living site - village or Town. How do you connect to those in your community?

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

The Internet is certainly a great way to make new friends and find dates in your neighborhood, but what about all over the world? The answer is yes because the Internet is worldwide and you can meet individuals from anywhere simply sitting in your home on your computer.

A love that lasts a lifetime is not easy to find. However when you do find such a love and meet such a person that totally captivates you, there will not be any hesitation on your part to take the plunge and commit wholeheartedly. Such are the feelings of Paul Davis (USA) and Karla Ruzycki (Canada) who found true love in each other.
