The Top Five Characteristics Of A Healthy Relationship

If you haven’t had much chance to see how healthy, loving relationships work on a daily basis, taking some time to really study the characteristics of healthy relationships can give you a much better chance of having one yourself. There are lots of different styles of relationships that can work just fine, but all those successful relationship styles tend to have a few things in common.

Respect!

Respect is the one of the main characteristics of a healthy relationship, whether it’s friendship, dating, or marriage. A partner who respects you is willing to listen to you in a non-judgmental way and considers your interests when making any mutual decisions. Any partner who disrespects you by making belittling comments about you, criticizing you in front of others, or disregarding your feelings is one you don’t need.

Support!

After respect, support comes in next as a critical characteristic of a healthy relationship. You and your partner should be encouraging each other to go after important goals and dreams and giving each other enough freedom to do so. When times get hard, you back each other up instead up tearing each other down.

That doesn’t mean you can expect support for everything you do, though. If your partner is nagging you to quit smoking, eat better, or not stay at the office until 11 o’clock every night, they’re probably doing it out of concern for your well being.

Trust!

In a strong, healthy relationship, neither of you should become suspicious or jealous without clear cause. If you have a niggling feeling that you can’t trust your significant other, your relationship will go downhill fast.

That sense of trust doesn’t develop overnight, though. It comes from each partner keeping their promises and sticking to the implicit rules of the relationship (no sleeping around, no lying about major issues, etc.) consistently over a period of time.

No manipulative behavior!

Negotiating is one thing, using threats, guilt, and lies to manipulate a partner into doing something is another. No one should have to put up with being bullied this way. If your partner threatens to leave you, withhold physical affection, or in some other way “punish” you during every little disagreement, you may want to reconsider the relationship.

Discover Herpes Dating Sites

Large scale general dating sites were the first to reach the internet, gaining a lot of popularity. Once these dating sites had saturated the online dating market, the next step was to create dating sites that focused on specific niche audiences. Herpes dating sites are one example of these specialized niche dating sites, catering to specific people that have something common amongst them.

People who have herpes may feel uncomfortable looking for friends and potential mates on general dating sites, because admitting that they are suffering from a sexually transmitted infection is not always easy. However, by signing up for herpes dating sites rather than general dating sites, these people can feel more comfortable with the dating scene.

Herpes dating sites are designed to cater to people with Herpes. When two people suffering from Herpes date, it is obviously much safer as there is no worry about transmitting anything from one person to another.

Not only do herpes dating sites exist to provide an avenue for dating for people who have herpes, but they also tend to provide a wealth of information relating to health and wellness and other topics of concern for people who use the site. Some Herpes dating sites, like MPWH (Meet People with Herpes) have as many as 68,000 subscribers, meaning that there is a real community out there that you can become a part of.

In addition to dating resources, herpes dating sites like the above also offer information on:
•    diet information
•    helpful advice
•    about how gentile herpes affects men and women differently
•    mistaken conditions and properly diagnosing herpes
•    scientific and statistical information about herpes
•    prognosis of disease
•    prevention
•    symptoms
•    outbreaks
•    safe sex / transmission
•    and a great deal more
The focus of these herpes dating sites is to create a true community for people who are dealing with herpes, rather than making them feel left out in the dating scene.

Dating Service Women Perspective On Online Dating

Have you ever thought about using a dating service? Women and men both use these services, but the ratio is that more men will pay to get hooked up with a gal.

For instance, on Match.com, a dating service, women made up 40 percent of the dating pool while men made up 60 percent according to a recent survey. Also, men are more likely to pay for dating services with many paid programs allowing women to register for free while men have to pay a hefty fee.

Why is it that when it comes to a dating service, women are so reluctant to “put themselves out there?” It boils down to women not wanting to be seen as the aggressors in a relationship.

Women want to flirt, to be teased, to have a little bit of a dance before a date is made. On a dating website, these women have to come out and say “I want a date. Here are the things I want in a man. Here are the things I offer.” That’s too blunt for many women.

But that doesn’t mean that men should despair about using dating services. For instance, while many women won’t start by putting up a profile of their own, they may browse through the profiles men have created. Once they see someone who looks interesting, they may be willing to create a profile so that they can contact the person.

Further, while the odds are stacked in favor of the women, there are still a fair number of women in the dating data banks.

Dating Websites Online Give Your Love Strategy a Boost

The love letter generation, the chocolate giving period and the long courtship age is long gone; written in the history pages of dating. A lot of people now prefer to browse dating websites online. These types of sites are the newest and hottest form of dating. They allow you to browse through different personalities from coast to coast in just a few clicks of the mouse. This is what 21st century dating is about: bold, more elaborate, and more exciting.

If you attempt to use one of the many dating websites online as part of your new strategy to find a kind of love that you never found, or a new love; then you need to consider these few, but important facets that are part of most dating websites online:

Your Photo

Your photo, most of the time, will be responsible for making your first impression on others at the dating website you choose to become a member of. Always use current pictures of yourself; it is also necessary that you try to make a good impression by posting the most flattering pictures you have of yourself. Your photos should capture your personality. It's best if you can have a good mix of tasteful, candid, shots and professionally done photos.

Aries As A Boyfriend

·    Aquarius – You are both fun loving and adventurous. Your friends love having you around. Beware of trampling on each other’s individuality though.

·    Aries – You’re both fired up by the energy of Mars, but beware of butting heads. Find personal, non-conflicting activities to keep your individuality.

Advice For A Broken Heart Heals Like Magic

Advice for a broken heart can work like magic and help to heal you provided you’re willing to listen and take the advice to heart. The primary thing is to use your common sense as you evaluate the words of wisdom given to you. Read on to find common sense words of healing that come from the heart as well as the brain.

The feelings of loss that come with a breakup can be really intense. Healing a broken heart following the loss of a love can take quite a lot of time. Nothing quite comes close to the sadness and the despair that are felt following the dissolution of a longstanding relationship. Sometimes you are simply going to want to get back with your ex, and sometimes you are going to simply want to forget them completely. Either way, it will definitely take some time for you to handle your broken heart. Regrouping and finding a way to get your emotions in order again is vital.

Rushing into a relationship for a rebound is rarely going to work out on a long term basis. This is the reason why rebound relationships are regarded as they are. Rather than rushing into something that is only to create more heartbreak, it would be wise to settle down your feelings and take things slow for a while so you can feel better. You can date if you feel comfortable doing so, but take it slow rather than rushing into something that will cause harm more than good. Don't get serious too fast if you want to recover from your broken heart rather than allowing it to rule you.

- Pause and take the time to regroup rather than rushing into dating, or rushing into trying to find a replacement relationship. If you come off as too needy, you will appear unappealing to most people out there. Take a dating time out, instead, and allow your emotions to be settled a bit before you make any rash decisions regarding your love life.
