She and he!

We are amazingly made! It is believed that the mind must inevitably prevail over the feelings, but in fact it is the feelings that dominate and control, and few of us are able to completely control them. One of the most “disgusting” and selfish feelings is, of course, love. It is love that can take away your mind and make you do stupidity after stupidity. While your heart is free, you look at your fellow lovers as not entirely healthy people. You snort contemptuously at a couple passionately kissing in the middle of the street, look disapprovingly at the teenagers hugging at the entrance, and don’t even suspect that you yourself are walking on the edge of a knife.

You teach your girlfriend in love to be proud and not show her suffering to the guy who easily traded her for football and a glass of beer with his friends. You tell her that there are a huge number of interesting activities in the world, much more useful and enjoyable than endless kisses under the moon. And finally, you describe to her all the delights of the free life that fate has given you.

But one day everything changes dramatically. At first, you just communicate with that guy from the supermarket who so nicely agreed to carry your huge package to the car. Then you meet twice a week, then three, five, seven... That's it, you're hooked! You want to see him every day. Parting now takes longer than a movie show. You write SMS to each other, chat on the phone at night. And now you already call him “your kitten”, and he calls you “baby”. You make plans for a happy future, selflessly kiss on the street, not paying attention to passers-by, and don’t even suspect what danger is already hanging over you.

And this danger is called – Selfish love! What it is? I'll explain now.

1. You start asking more and more often if he loves you, and even worse, how much.

2. You make a dissatisfied face and are capricious, like a small child, if he suddenly said that tomorrow he is meeting with friends and will not be able to come to you.

3. Your phone is always available to him.

4. He always knows where to find you in the evening, because every evening you sit at home and wait for his call, having lost all interest in previously loved ones: rendezvous with girlfriends, hangouts with friends, theater and discos.

5. You get offended if he doesn’t answer your SMS or doesn’t call back when he sees your unanswered call.

6. You expect him to remember the day you met every month and congratulate you, and you are terribly offended if he forgets about it.

7. And finally, you begin to single-handedly dream about your wedding and long-term family happiness. (Aelita.)

Waiting for you.

Meeting.

Two. Happiness.

Dance.

I'm offended

Psychologists say that most often people fall into depression after breaking up relationships with loved ones. Why is separation considered a terrible loss, standing almost on the same level as death? No one is safe from separation, just as none of us is safe from love.

At first everything goes great: flower-candy relationships, walks under the moon, first touches and kisses. What then? Even greater intimacy, unity of souls and... cooling down. But the worst thing is that the fire of love most often flares up with equal strength in both hearts, and cools down, as a rule, unevenly. You still love and make plans for the future, but coldness has already settled in the soul of your loved one. He is ruthless and gradually kills feelings, leaving no hope.

What to do in such a situation? Wait for that terrible phrase “It’s over!” to sound. or try to save the situation? First you need to understand, do you need this relationship or has your union long ago exhausted itself and being around is pointless? If you are sure that your love is a gift from heaven, and your loved one is simply confused and does not understand this, then fight to the end. How? Yes, very simple! Although, of course, this is not easy, because you are suffering, and in this snotty state you also need to implement your “Barbarossa plan”. But there is no way out, you want your love back?!

Unpleasant conversation.

While relaxing with a friend in a restaurant, we met two guys. They looked quite decent, so we allowed ourselves to be escorted home. My name was Andrey. He drove me to the house and suddenly started pestering me. No, this “suddenly” of mine sounds, of course, stupid, because all evening we danced and hugged. But then I felt danger. We were alone in his big jeep, the doors were locked, the windows were tinted, and there was nowhere to wait for rescue.

Andrey began to breathe heavily and crawled towards me with kisses. To my gentle resistance, he responded with force. I realized that I needed to act differently. Allowing him to kiss me, I leaned back slightly and in the most naive voice I was capable of said:

- Andryushechka, you are so good! I just can’t believe that men like this still exist!

He was taken aback.

- What? – He drawled, staring at me.

- Is it true. You are so gentle, so reliable! I feel very calm with you. “I feel protected,” I continued, feeling Andrei’s grip weakening.

-You don't know me well. In fact, I’m very angry,” he said, leaning back in his seat.

- I have a good intuition. It doesn't matter that we only met today. I feel that there is a huge kind heart in your chest. Next to you, I feel like a little princess, under the protection of a strong and brave knight. I know you are not capable of meanness or betrayal. “You are a very honest and noble person,” I concluded.

Andrey looked at me with completely different eyes. He was no longer a danger because he had become my brave knight. He kissed my hand and walked me to the entrance.

This is how you can sometimes turn an enemy into a friend. You just need to create a positive reputation for him that he himself will believe in. It’s not for nothing that we’ve all been familiar with the saying since childhood: “Tell a man he’s a pig, and he’ll grunt!” And if you tell the robber that he is a noble knight, then he will bow his knee to you. (Aelita)

Dance.

Each of us dreams of true romantic love. This is probably correct, because a person is born into this world to be loved and loving. You are waiting for this wonderful feeling to overtake you, and in your thoughts you paint pictures of absolute happiness. You imagine coming home tired and seeing a path of candles and rose petals leading to the bedroom. And your beloved man lies on the bed in agonizing anticipation. His muscular tanned body is incredibly attractive and exciting. You fall in love, and in the morning you are woken up by the amazing aroma of coffee served in bed by your partner. Very beautiful and romantic!

It's strange why we dream of such inconvenient and unnecessary things as rose petals and coffee in bed. Who came up with all this?

In the evening I came home first. I decided that today I would just lie on the couch with a bag of chips and watch some stupid programs. My beloved came late. There was no longer any romance in his appearance or behavior. He washed his face and went to the kitchen to have dinner. And I, passing by, suddenly glanced at his tanned neck. It was as if some kind of fireball exploded inside me. I never thought that a man’s neck could be so exciting! I hugged my man and kissed him. He looked into my eyes and forgot about food. It all happened right in the kitchen, among the pots and plates. And there were no candles, no rose petals, or any other romantic paraphernalia. But there was wild passion and crazy sex.

So I thought, do we really need this kind of romance? Maybe you just need to find your soul mate, your beloved and only one, who will put you in a romantic mood with just one glance?

Dance for two only.

I'm waking up!

Hello sun!

Our life is so structured that we don’t want to be alone. Every bird, butterfly, bug strives to find a mate. But for some reason it often happens that the young man you like does not pay attention to you at all. And only all sorts of people who don’t like you pester you. What to do? Resign yourself and rely on their choice? In no case! You just have to go and take what you like. How? There are five proven methods.

1. Seven second method. One day my friend and I were sitting in a restaurant and were bored. Music was playing, but no one invited us to dance. We had already decided to leave, but then I remembered seven seconds. I chose the cutest young man and, catching his gaze, held it for seven seconds, smiling mysteriously at the same time. Then I turned to my friend and said that I already had a gentleman for a slow dance. A minute later I was already dancing in the center of the hall with my new acquaintance. We have tested this method many times. Works flawlessly! Of course, you can’t do it without training, but the result is worth it. Any man you like will be at your feet. The exception is the blind.

2. The “sucker” method. The evening was boring and bland. And I don’t like returning home in a sad mood. The plan matured in my head instantly. I didn’t take a taxi, but walked to the side of the road and, choosing a decent car, raised my hand. When the window went down, I saw a very handsome man. I gave the address and said that I only had twenty rubles. Naturally he asked why such a pretty girl ended up in the city center without money? And this is where my finest hour came. Feeling like an unsurpassed actress, I composed such an incredible story! My companion said that he had never had so much fun and I was simply a miracle! Of course, he asked me for my phone number. This is a very fun way. Even if you don’t start any relationship, you are guaranteed to get home free of charge.

3. The argumentative method. This is a very simple way. You just need to have courage and imagination. You choose a young man sitting alone, walking or standing (no lying down!). You come up and say: “Sorry, I need your help. My friend said I'm a failure because I haven't had a boyfriend for six months. I felt offended, and I lied to her that I had a boyfriend. But she doesn't believe it. So we argued that if I came to the cinema tonight with a young man, she would give me a bottle of champagne. Could you go to the cinema with me? I’ll pay and give you the champagne!” Rarely a man will refuse a bottle of this drink and a trip to the cinema with a pretty girl. True, you will have to buy champagne yourself, but most likely you will drink it together.

4. The “telephone maniac” method. You found out the phone number of the young man you liked. How to call, what to say? You are tormented and do not dare to dial his number. In vain! He doesn’t see you, so why be afraid? You call and shout into the phone: “Afonya (or whatever his name is?) Hello! How are you? What are you doing?" To him: “Who is this?”, you get offended: “Wow, he invited me to visit, said that I was the best of all! Now, who is this? Or are you kidding? Etc." The main thing is to talk a lot. Tell him funny stories, something from your life. So for several days in a row. And now he is already intrigued, drawn into conversations with you and wants to see you soon. Forward! You have already done the main thing, go and reap the benefits with pleasure.

5. The “fake journalist” method. You choose a victim, come up and say: “Could you help me? I am writing an article on the topic “Love at first sight”. I need to appreciate the male and female point of view. Do you believe in love at first sight? Have you ever felt this way? Etc." Firstly, you will immediately find out whether this man is free or not. Secondly, you will appreciate his intelligence. And thirdly... Look, you yourself will believe in love at first sight! These are the five ways to meet people. Of course, there are many more of them, but it depends on your imagination. Live easily and playfully. Even if nothing works out the first time, even if the man turns out to be completely different, in any case, you are guaranteed a fun evening. (From here)

Tenderness of two!

Baby!
