If you find yourself frustrated and unsuccessful in dating, it could be that you are really not ready for a relationship. You may feel a bit lonely or feel the pressure of family or peers to be a couple, but you may want to consider if being single for now is the better option for you.

You may want to take time off from dating or re-evaluate if it is realistic for you to be in a serious relationship. Perhaps embrace single life and its benefits. Here are the 10 signs you are not ready for a relationship and being single might be best for you right now.

1. You frequently list all the unappealing characteristics of men your age.

Your focus is on the opposite sex letting themselves go physically such as having a beer belly or protruding nose hair instead of looking for a fit and toned partner.

2. You never achieved closure with your ex or exes.

You flirt with getting back together with one of your former partners.

3. You engage in “friends with benefits” or casual sex.”

You don’t view sex as a deeply sacred connection, but rather recreation.

From time to time in a long-term relationship, we get annoyed and impatient with each other, but if your man criticizes you constantly you’re involved in an emotionally abusive relationship. And there are certain signs of emotional abuse to never ignore.

Slowly but surely, toxic partners will work to undermine your confidence in order to control and contain you. They criticize the way you look, the way you talk, the way you eat, the way you do pretty much everything. They’ll even criticize you for reacting negatively to their outrageous, emotionally abusive behavior.

My client Beatrice (not her real name) was living with her boyfriend of three years, Matthew. Matthew had been inconsistent and unreliable throughout the course of their relationship, but when they moved in with each other (which Beatrice thought would be a cure) his bad behavior ramped up exponentially.

He began getting home from work several hours later than expected and wouldn’t answer any of Beatrice’s texts or phone calls to explain his whereabouts.

One night at 4 AM, Matthew still wasn’t home and wouldn’t respond to texts or calls. In desperation Beatrice called one of Matthew’s colleagues, Jim, waking him up. Jim told Beatrice that he’d been out with Matthew at a bar, but that they’d parted ways at midnight.

Matthew finally returned home at 7 AM to discover an infuriated Beatrice waiting up for him, yet he somehow managed to steal her thunder.

“Did you call Jim at four in the morning?” he asked angrily.

“Yes, I was looking for you and you wouldn’t answer your phone!”

Matthew rolled his eyes in disgust. “That’s incredibly embarrassing,” he informed Beatrice. “You’re acting like white trash.

Oh yes, he did.

And Beatrice, who’d grown up in a home filled with inconsistency and infidelity, and afflicted with the low self-esteem that can breed, actually felt ashamed for embarrassing Matthew and acting like “white trash.”

Toxic men (and women, by the way) tear you down so they can control you, to make you think you don’t deserve all that you want and even what you need. It keeps you trapped by making you think no one else will take you with all of your flaws and confuses you by making you think that you’re the one who’s damaged.

That is some pretty toxic behavior, indicating you need to get out now.

It is absolutely unacceptable for a man to batter a woman black and blue. It is simply cowardice. Despite the domestic violence, some people will not speak out nor will they quit the relationship. They endure. They report to their religious leaders and family members who usually encourage them to stay. This is wrong.

They are not the ones who gets rape when he is drunk or who gets beaten every night when he is angry. This is same with your boyfriend.

We share reasons why you should never stay in an abusive relationship,

He will kill you one day

There have been many stories were husbands have beaten their wives to the extent that they died. That is extreme. You do not want to be in that situation. Your children need you alive to take care of them. So, if you have made effort and waited for him to change and he refuses, just quit.

The post 5 Reasons You Should Quit An Abusive Relationship appeared first on The PeepSpot.

Most of us will come across people who are drinking too much in social situations. And to be fair, who hasn’t — from time to time — had one (or three) too many drinks at their own birthday party? The summer season is nearly upon us. It’s time for holiday celebrations and barbecues at which keeping the wine and beer flowing is part of being hospitable.

For some of us, however, this season highlights a much more commonplace and personal issue because our close relationships are already overshadowed by the specter of problem drinking. We view celebrations with growing dread as they provide our problem drinker with what they consider to be a legitimate excuse for excess.

The following is a quick guide to managing drunken behavior wisely and minimizing its destructive impact. If you are out at a social occasion, try to remember that if your partner is behaving atrociously, he/she is embarrassing him/herself — not you. Don’t give yourself a hard time if you decide to leave early, take the car and leave your partner some money for a taxi home later. It’s simply putting up a boundary which is a very wise thing to do.

However, the real problems accelerate behind closed doors. Your drunk partner enters the house where social norms no longer demand his/her natural restraint and the real problems begin. So what do you do? As a relationship expert, here’s my advice:

Avoid Confrontation In The Moment

This is hard, particularly if you are in close relationship with the person who is drinking. For a start, you will be feeling understandably angry that your partner has moved to that point where the drink appears to be taking over. OK, we’ve all laughed at amiable, giggling drunks in our time, but the joke soon wears thin when it’s your partner doing it over and over again. Amusement is quickly replaced by concern, annoyance and — if it goes on and on — a deep rage, which those who live with compulsive behaviors will really understand. At that point, the temptation to sit your drunk down and give him a large piece of your mind feels almost irresistible, and it’s highly likely you have done just that!

However, more often than not, it’s like sticking your finger in a wasp’s nest. Out come the verbal insults and twisting half-truths that sting, frustrate and offend. You may feel better for a moment, but an argument with a drunk can quickly escalate to a new level of tension, aggression, and non–compliance. And even if your drinker is amiable and garrulous and wants to “talk deeply” (how often I’ve fallen for that one) the chances are he/she won’t remember a thing in the morning. There is a time to talk things through and express how disappointed, hurt and angry you are, but not when he/she is still intoxicated!

The chances are, if you are dating a bad boy, you are to some degree in pain. What is pain in a relationship?

Pain in a relationship is when you are suffering from some form of emotional or physical stress over a sustained period of time. Some of us are so familiar with being miserable within a relationship that we are unaware we are in pain.

Let me share with some of the warning signs that you might be experiencing pain in your relationship.

5 Warning Signs You are Living in Pain and Not in Love:

1. You make all the effort

You are the one putting the majority of effort into the relationship and when you ask him to get involved more you continually get ignored or overlooked. Often he says that you are too needy and you need to chill out.

The post 5 BIG Signs That Your Relationship Is Being Driven By Pain, Not Love appeared first on The PeepSpot.

Sometimes, in a moment of feeling abandoned, unseen, or treated unfairly by our partners, we protect ourselves with a silent vow: “Never again.”

“Never again will I let myself be hurt like this.”

“Never again will I allow myself to be so vulnerable.”

“Never again will I depend on you.”

Such vows may be fully conscious or barely at the edge of awareness.

We may not use the exact words “Never again” but whatever form the vow takes, we draw a line in the sand. We make a pact with ourselves but we don’t tell our partners. We may not realize the power of our decision until months or years later.

To be clear, I am not talking about relationships in which you are the recipient of destructive behavior such as emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. In relationships like that, vowing “Never again” is a sign of health.

You need to make sure the abuse stop either by the other person addressing their unhealthy patterns or by you leaving the relationship.

Rather, I am talking about relationships in which one or both partners cope with a disappointment or feeling of abandonment by mentally going away.

In my 25 years doing couples counseling, I have seen this many times. A couple enters therapy with one or both partners checked out. Fights go unresolved. Passion has left the relationship. They turn away from each other. They are no longer a team.

Of course, many things can cause partners to turn away from each other. But sometimes as we explore the relationship in counseling, one partner, at first hesitantly then perhaps tearfully, will bring up an event from years ago.

So how can YOU watch porn together and introduce it into your relationship to enhance your sex of your life without freaking your partner out (or freaking yourself out)? The following four steps make it simple:

1. Brainstorm.

The first step, for any woman who is thinking about spicing things up sexually, is to ask yourself what turns you on. What do you fantasize about? The answers to these questions will help you think about what kind of porn would be best suited for you. Bare in mind, seeing something your mind and seeing it acted out onscreen are different experiences so it’s OK if it takes some testing to see which ideas actually still arouse when acted out before your eyes.

Here are three of my own reasons for doing just that.

1. It’s not the be all, end all of relationships for me.

For a long time, I thought sexual intimacy was the purpose of relationships. But, over time, I realized there was so much more to my relationships than sex.

It’s having someone to come home to at the end of the day. It’s the emotional support that gets you through tough times, and the adventures you take together.

My love for my partner didn’t rely on whether or not we had sex.

It was the late night pep talks when we were struggling, the Netflix marathons, the cozy nights cuddling and drinking tea, and trying new restaurants downtown, and wandering around the farmer’s market on a Saturday morning, and the comfort of sleeping next to someone at night.

That’s what mattered most.

Some folks think sex is an important part of their relationship. But what is most important to me – the time we spend together, the emotional bond we share – has nothing to do with how sexual we are, and how often.

Gone are the days of waiting for weeks for a love letter to arrive from your lover who is either near or far away. You do not need to go through this stress, you can simply call or send an instant message via WhatsApp or BBM.

However, as a result of this, there is little or no romance many relationships. You do not need to allow the digital age kill romance in your love life.

Below are the ways you can keep the love and romance fire burning.

1.      Words and pictures

To express your feelings for someone, you can simply use romantic words and picture messages. There is nothing new under the sun. Google some nice and romantic words as well as picture messages you can send to your bae. This seems simplistic but many people scarcely do despite its far-reaching effect.

Rihanna and Chris Brown’s romance may not be totally over according to an insider who spoke to OK! The insider claimed Rihanna’s family and friends want Chris Brown back into her life despite the previous assault which led to their breakup.

“It’s incredible that even after all this time and everything he did to her, many if not most of her family and friends back home are hoping for a fairytale ending between Rihanna and Chris,” the source claimed.

Speaking further, the source said; “Her family adored him like their own, and every guy she’s brought back has been a poor version of him, in their eyes. It gets on her nerves to no end”

As at the time of this report, neither RiRi who’s currently dating Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel nor Breezy reacted to these new claims.

You feel butterflies when you are around them and they make you feel excited about everything. The problem with people sometimes is declaring their undying love for a man/woman instead of just taking thing slow.

However there are certain guaranteed ways to get your crush to chase you but you must be sure that there is a flame between the two of you and not a made up chemistry. Try these things and see how fast things will go.

1. Don’t call or text first.

You can call once in a while. But if you truly want to know if your crush even considers you, then you ought to give him/her some time out and let them be the ones to look for you.

When you keep calling and texting them you look idle and desperate. If they don’t look for you then you will also know that they probably don’t like you.

Various factors affect the person and their personality throughout life, including family, environment, hobbies and even dramatic events. However, nothing affects the personality more than a relationship. Sometimes, a person you’ve known all your life can inexplicably change when they start dating someone. For example, a man used to be a cheerful guy, and now, he has turned into a dull henpecked man or a funny women friend has turned into a real jealous vixen. Such metamorphoses relate not only to the character because sometimes, you do utterly idiotic actions, which you will regret for a long time.

1. Sharing passwords from social networks.

Do you know these couples who give each other their passwords from social networks? It seems to them that this is the highest level of manifestation of trust. However, this broad gesture is appreciated only till one of them will not start scrolling down the entire history of the messages. Imagine what will happen when your girl decides to read your correspondence with friends? Have you promised each other that you will not cross the line and disturb anything personal? Forget it! Human curiosity has forced us to go into space so that your girlfriend is guaranteed to check everything on your phone. Each partner should have a personal space, a place that only they have access to. Nowadays, social networks are the very place. Sharing passwords is one of the weird things people do in relationships, and over time, it can destroy everything. You will hardly find a precise answer to the question, “Why do people lie in relationships?” You can ask 100 people and get 100 different reasons.

2. Letting a girlfriend drive a car if she cannot do that.

Any guy wants to impress the girl, showing his fearlessness and trust. Sometimes, it’s getting out of hand, and men give access to the most precious thing for every man, to his car. It’s even unnecessary to mention that police officers can stop you and etc. Let’s look at this situation from the other side. If a girl has the driving license, then it’s okay. However, to entrust the car to a lady who has never driven it and who considers the yield sign to be an inverted Masonic pyramid is one of the most stupid things guys do in relationships. It’s irresponsible. Firstly, you endanger the lives of other people because an inexperienced driver can confuse the pedals of gas and brakes in an extreme situation and in general, behave inadequately. Secondly, you risk your health, the health of the girl and the car. You can make a beautiful gesture in a different way, but do not do such nonsense.

3. Stopping communication with friends.

There are also such situations in which marasmus reaches its apogee, and one of the partners demands from the other to stop communicating with friends. This behavior can be justified if the company really has a bad influence. If the girl will see that her boyfriend’s friends do drugs, then it will be normal to ask him to limit communication with them. Also, a guy who does not like the environment of his girlfriend, for similar objective reasons, has the right to lay down the similar requirements. However, it happens that a partner just doesn’t like friends. The reasons can be different, “they are too stupid/ noisy/ problematic or behave like children. However, the main reason is the partner’s selfishness. It is one of the bad things in relationships. Trying to isolate the beloved person from the society, you behave like owners who limit other people in communication. It is stupid to forget about your friends to please your woman. This is an important and integral part of every guy’s life. Thanks to our friends from online dating site for providing this article.

See there is this idea that men always need to do something super S3xy to woo a woman. It has to be S3xually related to making her go crazy and fall for you, head over heels. But that’s actually wrong. While there is nothing wrong in doing something S3xy for your women, you don’t always have to be lust-oriented. There are simpler and everyday things that can make a woman fall hard for you and drive them crazy. Not sure what I am talking about? Check out the list below.

1 Make her laugh

As the saying goes, there is nothing S3xier than a man who knows how to make his woman laugh. Ladies love it when their partners can crack jokes and make them grin from ear to ear. Sure, women will smile every now and then at your words and remarks but to truly make them laugh out loud is a difficult task and if you can manage to do it then your woman will go crazy for you and be even more attracted towards you.

The post 4 Non S3xual Things That Can Drive A Woman Crazy appeared first on The PeepSpot.

• Don’t spend the time talking about you. Do let her do most of the talking.
• Don’t badmouth your ex-girlfriends or wives. Don’t badmouth her ex-boyfriends or husbands, either. Do say positive things about your past relationships, or don’t say anything at all.
• Don’t overly compliment a woman, except maybe to tell her she looks nice when you pick her up or meet up, or that you had a good time at the end of a date. Most guys try to give ass-kissy compliments to get women into bed to the point that it comes off as being phony or a clinical diagnosis. It comes off as a bribe for sex if you overdo it.
• Don’t take her to extravagant places on the first date. If a guy starts spoiling a woman right away, she will come to expect that kind of treatment. Do take her someplace nice, quiet, intimate, and inexpensive, until you get to know her and know that she is really into you for you.
• Be careful talking about sex, even if she is the one to bring it up. Change the subject after a few playful sexual innuendos. Use it sparingly and then change the subject. Most guys just get themselves into trouble with this subject.
• Be a charming James Bond 90% of the time, and 10% of the time a naughty little boy. Same thing with teasing. Treat her like a bratty little sister no more than 10% of the time, or you will come off as just putting her down constantly. This makes you look insecure if you do.
• If she is pressing you about past relationships, don’t give in to her pressing. Say, I don’t kiss and tell, with a James Bond playful smirk.
• Don’t treat the service people badly. Many women have been involved in the service industry before, in one capacity or another, and if they see you treating another individual in a demanding manner, they will often read that as a sign of the demanding individual you may become later in the relationship.
• Do tip your wait staff appropriately. Some guys will short change a waitperson on tips. I have heard of women who will get embarrassed and slip extra money onto the table. It shows that you are cheap, and that you do not appreciate the things that others do for you

The post Never Do These Things On The First Date appeared first on The PeepSpot.

Warning:

The tips I’m about to reveal will be shocking and controversial to some. Readers’ discretion is advised.

So you’re playing the game of cat and mouse, steadily chasing the man in your life for his undivided attention?

Stop right now!

The truth is the harder a person has to work for something, the more they value it. So in other words, he should be the one doing the chasing, not you if you really want his unmatched devotion.

Let’s tilt the balance of power back in your favor.
Here’s how:

Tip #1: Embrace your options.

This is by far my most controversial bit of advice. However, it is guaranteed to produce results. What you want to do is show him that you have other romantic options. Whether it’s a guy that keeps flirting with you at work, or men out in public that keep trying to grab your attention. Make him aware that there are other men that desire you. This will trigger, “Loss Aversion” and “Social Proof”

Simply put. They teach you in psychology that:

    People intensely hate losses, and they especially hate losing things to competitors.
People take cues from others about how they should behave or what they should want by watching how other people behave and gauging the thing’s other people want.

By him seeing that you have other romantic options and that he could possibly lose you to another man, he will intensely begin to crave you.

No man wants to lose his love interest to another man.

And by seeing that other men want you, he will take the subconscious cue that you are immensely desirable to others, intensifying his own desire to be with you.

Now that he’s alert to the fact that you have other options, and that you are desired by romantic competitors, let’s move on to how to further make him crave your affection.

Tip #2: Embrace your femininity.

Research has shown that staring at attractive women lights up the same part of the male brain as a hit of cocaine.

Seriously, to the male mind, female beauty is a potent drug.

Just take a look at the biological reaction a man has when a beautiful woman catches his eye:

    Reward centers in the brain fire off, releasing positive feeling chemicals such as endorphins and dopamine, triggering feelings of pleasure, motivation, and reward.
Testosterone and arousal levels spike, encouraging risky and impulsive behavior.
A man’s hypothalamus is stimulated. Resulting in faster heart rate, high sexual arousal, and perspiration.

As you can see from the list above, whatever you do don’t discount the fact that your feminine beauty drives men crazy! Embrace your femininity, you don’t have to dress provocative to do it, just wear something that gently accentuates your figure. You will drive him wild on a conscious and subconscious level.

Tip #3: Be more self-confident!

People are attracted to confidence. Don’t second guess yourself, be confident in your appearance, be confident in who you are. Not only will this make you more attractive to others, but it will also make you feel better about yourself.

Tip #4: Don’t over text or call.

This tip is mainly for woman that are just starting a relationship with a new man. He should be the one initiating calls and text most of the time. I suggest a 2:1 ratio. Once again, you want him to work for your attention and affection, that way he will appreciate it more when he finally receives it.

Tip #5: Never compete with other women over him!

If you sense the slightest hint that he’s trying to make you jealous, don’t fall for the trap!

Take a step back, give him his space, and let him decide who he wants to be with. Let him know you want him to be happy, and to let you know when he’s ready to be a one woman man. Period. At that point, he will either step up or step off. Either way, you will win by not falling into the tendency of competing against other women for his attention.

Tip #6: Love yourself no matter what.

Never change your look, or wear clothes that do not represent you for a man. Embrace the “take it or leave it” approach when dating. Once again, your self-confidence will shine through, making you more desirable to him.

Tip #7: Don’t share every detail of your life with him.

Let your answering machine catch his phone calls every now and then; do not broadcast every minute of your existence with him. Limit your availability and keep a hint of mystery in your relationship, especially in the beginning.

Conclusion

It is my opinion that no woman should have to chase a man for his attention. However, it very often happens. These 7 tips are sure to shake up a few of those relationships. Use them wisely ladies.

The post Ladies Make Him Chase You Today. Here’s How appeared first on The PeepSpot.

Men who are dissatisfied with their relationships are horrible at hiding it. Often they send little signals that something is wrong without even realizing it, growing colder and more detached as time goes on.

To help you discover the more or less hidden signs that your boyfriend might be unhappy we came up with a list of frequent behaviors and actions that signal he’s hit the emotional eject button on your relationship.

See how many of them you can identify, but remember not everything is always what it seems – reasonable explanations for behavioral changes do exist. So before you jump to conclusions, take your time and analyze everything carefully.
4 Things A Man Does When He’s Unhappy With His Relationship

Sign #1: He barely talks to you when you eat together.

If while you sit at the table for breakfast or dinner, he suddenly becomes as silent as a mime, you have one of two scenarios on your hand:

    You have reached the stage in your relationship where you have told all the stories, understand what the other is thinking, and can nearly read each other’s minds. Or….
He’s just sick of talking to you, and probably also sick of seeing you.

When a man feels the relationship is not meant to last he will slowly start to grow apart from you, and a lack of communication is one of the clear signs that the process has begun.
If you are the one doing all the talking and he only responds with one-word answers, “Yes” “No” “Maybe,” he is probably unhappy and ready to move on.

Sign #2: He stops listening to your side of the argument when you get into a fight.

Instead of listening to you and trying to actively sort out your problems, he tells you “Whatever” or “I don’t want to hear it.” Of course, no one likes to fight, and most people try their best to avoid conflict, but there are times when arguing becomes unavoidable and even mandatory.

It is highly recommended to have minor arguments from time to time to sort things out, (and why beat around the bush? The makeup $ex afterward is amazing lol). But if your boyfriend constantly plays the “I don’t want to hear it card” when you have a disagreement it might be more than him trying to avoid conflict.

He might be showing signs that he doesn’t care about the relationship anymore and your feelings are no longer on his list of priorities.

Sign #3: He has tons of fun with his buddies… But none with you…

Have you gotten used to going to the same places every weekend, eating at the same restaurants, ordering the same food, and watching the same TV shows every week with your man?

Same ol’ same ol’ for you and him…

But when he’s out with his friends… It’s a blast! There is no telling what they are doing next and where they are going. It’s a never-ending adventure with them, and your man seems to enjoy every second of it.

Your boyfriend not trying new things with you doesn’t necessarily mean he is unhappy with your relationship, as you have already created intimate rituals you both love and feel comfortable with. But it could definitely be a sign that he is no longer satisfied with the things you are doing together, and he feels the need to try something new… And his buddies are the ones he chooses to do those new things with…

Sign #4: He talks about his female friends/co-workers a lot.

If he keeps going on and on about the same coworker or female friend more often than he used to, something might be off. But pay attention to the context of which he speaks about this woman.

Knowing about a female friend’s marital problems or weekend activities should immediately signal warning signs. Why the sudden interest and focus on this woman? Why is he getting so involved in her life? Why does he care so much?

You might think him telling you all about it means nothing fishy is going on behind your back – he wouldn’t dare cheat on you with her and then come home, look you in the eye and share office stories about her… Would he? It might mean nothing, or it might mean that he has started to shift his attention to this other woman… While at the same time losing interest in you.

Conclusion

If you feel your man might be growing unhappy in your relationship, I suggest you sit down and talk to him. Lay it out on the table and tell him, to be honest about how he really feels. At the end of the day, you could be worried about nothing. However, a sudden change in behavior is rarely ever a good sign in a relationship. So you have every right in the world to wonder what’s really going on.

While the guy and the lady ought to take responsibility for the success of their relationship, this article seeks to focus on guys and how they ruin a good relationship without even knowing it.

Below are 6 behaviours guys have that destroy their relationship

1. YOU DON’T GET CLOSE ENOUGH

Not getting close enough to your partner might destroy your relationship because a lady longs to connect with her man. Being affectionate only when you need sex or something from her is so wrong and destroys your relationship before you know it. Make your girlfriend feel close to you by talking with her, hugging her often, holding her hands, kissing her unexpectedly, sitting close to her, asking her how she’s doing and spending time alone with her. Doing this would help her feel connected to you and when she feels connected to you, she would be more willing to engage with you on a more intimate, sexual level.

The post Top 5 Ways Guys Destroy Their Relationships appeared first on The PeepSpot.

One established fact is that partners, especially the ones that have been together for a while, usually have their moments of differences.

Sometimes, these issues are quickly sorted, and sometimes not.

Sometimes these issues are little, inconsequential and infrequent, at other times, they are a lot frequent and a lot more problematic than normal.

One of such really problematic issues is money. Or, in better terms, the lack of money.

According to a survey of  5,000 people in UK by Relate, Relationships Scotland, and Marriage Care, the negative effect of lack of money in a relationship cannot be downplayed in relationships/marriages.

Money, a real problem which puts pressure on relationships

26% of the people report money worries as their biggest relationship problem, followed by  lack of understanding,  differences in sex drive, and a lack of work-life balance.

The survey also finds that the longer you’ve been together, the more likely you are to argue about money.

“Usually, when couples argue over money, it is because both individuals have very different spending habits,” explains Marriage Care counselor, Jenny Porter.

Couples sometimes have differing ideas on how money should be spent

“For example, one person may be more risk-averse and want to put more money away for retirement, while the other person may be more focused on spending for today.

Although many couples find it awkward to talk about finances, it is essential to talk things through together to ensure both partners are on the same wavelength and to prevent problems from escalating.”

The survey’s result says the longer you’ve been together with a partner, the more likely you are to argue about money.
