4 Signs Your Marriage Could End

Have you ever wondered what would cause your relationship to end? Or even wondered what signs to look for when you suspect things may be heading in the wrong direction? Psychologist (John Gottman) claims he can predict the strength of a marriage by just a few minutes of observing the couple interacting. Over the past years he found out four characteristics, which if present predict the long-term success of the relationship. These characteristics are: criticism, defensiveness, contempt, and stonewalling. These four things, if present in a relationship, are, according to Gottman, signs that it will not last long. Constant criticism  has the effect of bringing your partner down. The ideal ratio of positive to negative utterances should be seven positives to every one negative thing said. This is similar to when you were dating and almost every other thing out of your mouths was "sweet nothings" as we call them. If you remember the language of being ...

Every Man's Biggest Fear

Some marriage proposal stories are so amazing that you can literally  feel  the love a couple has for each other as you read through it. When the man is the one writing the beautiful proposal story, it makes reading it that much better. That being said, here is one of my favorite “How I Asked” stories yet… As a professional mechanic, I have gotten used to pretty girls batting their eyes at me in hopes of coercing me into performing free car repairs. Heidi was a different story. In fact the first time I met her, she completely shut me down. After being introduced through mutual friends, I mustered up the courage to try and talk to her. She, in turn, did everything she could to let me know how uninterested she was. Ironically, not too long after that, the little orange “Check Engine” light on her dashboard illuminated. For me, it was a little beacon of hope. I ended up spending 6 hours working on her car one Saturday afternoon. She sat there watching me work the entir...

I Want To Travel Abroad But My Husband Is Against It, What Do I Do?

My husband and I had been making plans for leaving the country since when we got married, but getting a visa had always been hard. During this long struggle, we met a friend of ours who told us that she was awarded a visa lottery to America. Of course, we were jealous of her luck but we pushed it down and asked her for help.  We applied separately because we thought that would give us a better chance of getting it, at least one of us was bound to get it. We were both called for interviews on separate days and we prayed fervently to get it. We just wanted to build a good life for our unborn children, so it was imperative that one of us got the visa.  Each day we would check our emails to see if there was anything from the embassy but there was always nothing. We were about to give up until one day, I saw something in my email. It was a letter of approval, I had been approved for a green card. Immediately I saw it, I started screaming, dancing and praising G...

You always want to make sure that you’re keeping yourself protected as much as possible. You always want to make sure that you’re not becoming invested in someone who is only going to use you for your body and physical pleasures.

IT should cut so much deeper than that. There should always be a real emotional bond and connection between the two of you. But the thing about men these days is that they’re so good at masking their evil and malicious intentions with sweet flowery words and romantic gestures. So many women are victimized every single day by men who prey on their gullibility and openness. Yes, when it comes to love, you always wan...
