Look for the true relationship that exists. And you can extrapolate it to once you have cognition of relational and behavioral elements. It’s everywhere.
When you see a photo of Angelina Jolie with Brad Pitt following behind her; guess who has the real power and upper hand in that relationship?
She OWNS him in that relationship. Yes, the man who used to be a #1 bachelor.
If you choose a so-called ‘Aphrodite’; a wonder woman who is used to being the lead and stimulus in a relationship, you’re going to end up making all kinds of compromises just to be around her and accommodate her.
She has become this person who is so powerful; essentially like a man used to be. You can’t change her because she is now like a man. The older she is, the more she is set in her independent ways.
The best that most men do is just ‘cope’ with it or view marriage as ’she owns me’. I even saw that reference in a beer ad where the guys went out for the bachelor party and it was the last night before she ‘owns him’.
This is tragically sad. Marriage is supposed to be a blessing and a wonderful relationship; not the doom of man.
I went to rent a tux (I know, I don’t own one yet though) and saw the tongue-in-cheek shirts on the wall.
“I do.”
“I do what she says.”
That’s funny but tragically it IS the true relational reality that exists in many relationships especially in
America. That is no laughing matter because those men ARE repressing their full potential in that relationship.
If you choose a wonder woman, be prepared for all kinds of consequences. If you think you’re ‘lucky’ just to be around her (that’s a huge yellow flag); is that worth trading your manhood and destiny for?
So when it comes to dating, first of all STOP overrating these women. If you knew what it was really like to live with a diva, you would think twice.
As a man, if you’re not the stimulus in the relationship for her to accommodate you (the natural and traditional way) there is going to be drama. At best you could find an equal
ground and both make compromises.
So many couples get divorced and blame it on everything but the real reason; the development and empowerment of the woman herself.
I would daresay, in most cases it is not the man’s fault. Sure he may get a little more relaxed and slobbish after marriage but he’s being himself. Is he more to blame than the woman who starts challenging him, nagging him and instead of building him up and doing her part, breaks him down?
To the credit of women and maybe .1% would ever admit this; they ARE who they are because of Causality. It was their social environment, upbringing, influences and experiences that allowed them to develop into uniquely who they are (more than nature itself).
Once you can realize that all of this behavior and power at it’s root is always Causal, you’ll be able to start relieving some of this burden.
Not ALL relationships are screwed up. Not all women nag. For instant proof, look at cultural differentiation. Compare more natural or traditional women to the reality that you see everyday where women use and often abuse their power (look at the legal system).
Women who are more traditional and ‘less develop’ know how to take care of their man, support him, allow him to earn more, and keep the family together. It’s statistically proven. How are these women different? How are Asian-American women different from Asian women?
Because of their causal social environment. They had different influences, different roles models, different opportunities and even a different language (thus a paradigm of thinking).
And you can’t say that ‘independent women’ are ‘better’ because look at our relationship reality. A 50% divorce rate? Is that worth the price? In some ways, yes. In others, no. I love my independent girl-friends and X’s but to marry one and compromise my level of power and influence? No.
Just understand the reality of what’s going on and know your relationship to the root of this behavior so that you can live a free and empowered life yourself as a man.
Cognition of these social and relational dynamics will not only give you more power in life, but a lot more freedom to make the right decisions for yourself. In new relationships, you’ll be able to see yellow and red flags before things get too worse instead of remaining ignorant and then getting yourself in a depressing situation.
When you do have an awareness and aren’t ignorant to the true ‘power’ (and most women know they have it), you’ll be able to prevent or stop yourself from being abused or used and you’ll be able to lead the relationship like you’re supposed to or let her go.

In a world where family members live in all corners of the globe, more often than not, planning a wedding will involve out of town guests. And while your visitors truly want to help you celebrate, they may end up a little bit stressed because they don’t know the area or your other guests.
Solution? Personalized gift baskets ready and waiting when they arrive, filled with your best wishes for a wonderful visit. Whether you use a professional service or do some assembly yourself, gift baskets are an affordable, fun way to say “Thanks for coming, enjoy your stay. We’re glad you’re here!” Here are three possibilities to get you started:
1. Welcome Basket: This basket is perfect for guests who don’t know the area, especially if they’re coming in a day early or staying a few extra days after the big event. Help them out by including a local map and brochures. You can also prepare a “don’t miss” list of attractions and events. Printing it on attractive paper or stationary is a nice detail. Include a few samples of local treats, and your guests will be well prepared for their stay.
2. Goodie Basket: Have you ever arrived at your hotel ready to eat anything that wasn’t nailed down? Your guests might too. Flight schedules, road construction or cranky kids sometimes make stopping out of the question. Let a Goodie Basket greet your guests and tide them over until they can get settled and out for a good meal.
You can include non-perishable items representative of the region such as crackers, dried fruit, nuts or candy. Gourmet tea, coffee or cocoa add a nice touch too. If you know what their favorite snacks are, provide a surprise weekend supply. Mini baskets are also great for families with kids. Tuck in a small toy, book or crayons to keep little guests busy.
3. Rest & Relaxation Basket:
While most hotels provide basic bath and shower essentials, your guests might enjoy some extra special pampering after their trip. Fill this basket with handmade soaps, or herbal lotions for gals and soothing shaving creams for the guys. Tie the scent in to your wedding flowers or overall theme. Put in a few truffles or other decadent nibbles, and the worries of the road will be gone in no time.
Lastly, remember to include a personal note from the bride and groom or a small wedding memento to make your welcome basket complete.

Some time ago, a young lady was complaining that the wedding day is near the corner and she has problems in winter with her over-dried skin. Many people, including me, have terrible skin problems during this season. Why? Because the over-dried skin generates more oil to make a balance, and that’s the component that clogs the pores. So it isn’t a good idea to over-wash or to be too eager to splatter around astringent containing alcohol. My advice is, if you’ve never used moisturizer, try it now!
If you’re in the same situation and you decided to do your own make-up for your wedding, then go to a make-up counter on a very bad skin day and choose a foundation presenting a full coverage. The key is to use a foundation that is targeted to cover yuckies, an oil-free foundation that hides everything. So that you can put it on a nice light layer, rather than adding more of a translucent foundation.
If the breakouts are mainly on your forehead, then the right hairstyle can cover them. But take care, this is a solution just for one day. Wearing permanent your hair that way, you will encourage the development of breakouts, but just in one single day nothing very important will happened. When you go to make-up counter, do not forget to buy a lipstick to add more color to your cheeks. But take care not to choose a pinky-red one as your blemishes, because a wrong lipstick use can make a blemish look five times worse than it is in reality.

When your birthday comes around you probably expect to get a birthday card. A lot of time and thought can be spent trying to find the perfect card. We are going to try and provide some tips to make it easier for you to find the perfect birthday card.
When you’re first buying a birthday card try to think of what kind of personality the person has who your buying it for. Some people will not like humorous cards while others will love them. This holds true for standard and decorative cards as well.
After you figure out what type of card you want to get the person then you need to go out and buy it. There are a lot of places that sell Birthday cards. However, most of these stores have big differences in location, cost, and store type.
One of the more common ways to buy birthday cards is to just go ahead and pick them up at your local grocery store. This saves you from having to travel out of you way to get cards and you can usually find what you need in a grocery store.
Another great place is your local dollar store. By shopping here you can get cheaper birthday cards which will still get the message across to the recipient.
If you want to really show someone how special they are you can shop from a place that specializes in birthday cards. These stores are usually located in a mall are cater to people who need to find birthday, greeting, or most kinds of cards. These stores also tend to be a little more expensive than some other stores with their cards.
The most important thing to remember when buying a birthday card is to now go too far out of your way to buy one. The card may be cheaper at a farther away store but you can easily use more gas to get there.
