Romance8 Ways To Rebuild A Broken Relationship by SleekyP(op): 1:25am On May 27, 2015
Even if you agree with Taylor Swift on “never ever getting back together,” you may also realize that it is not always possible to leave a relationship behind for good. If your marriage is broken and you have children together, there is seldom a full escape from that spouse — even if you divorce.

The broken association could also be with a parent, child, sibling, co-worker or long-time friend. Sometimes we get hurt and sometimes we hurt others, but we can’t always escape the people who hurt us. What do we do when we know we can’t leave a relationship, but we do not see how it can be repaired? Here are a few tips that will help in the rebuilding process.

1. Stop focusing on the negative and look for the positive

This goes for both you and the person you are struggling with. When you focus on the negative aspects of others, it is easy to hold anger toward them. But remember, none of us is perfect; we all make mistakes. It can be harder to focus on the good traits of a person, but it is well worth the effort.

2. Don’t expect them to change

It is never good to start thinking something along the lines of, “Our relationship would be much better if they would just … ” Expecting someone else to change is like expecting the weather to be exactly how you think it should be every day. We can not control some things, and need to accept that.

3. Set boundaries for yourself

It is crucial that you realize that you can only change yourself, but you are worth protecting. Set boundaries for yourself. Walk away for a while to cool off and collect your thoughts. Distance yourself emotionally when it becomes too much, and slowly work back into the relationship when you can handle it.

4. Serve

Serving the person you are having issues with is ideal, but any kind of service will make you feel better. We love those we serve. Sometimes service has to come in order for love to return.

5. Ask for help

Please don’t be afraid to ask for help. Pray and/or talk to a counselor. If you are struggling, a third party who is not involved with the situation can really be of help. They can see things you might have missed because your emotions were clouded with hurt.

6. Forgive cry

It is so important to forgive ourselves and others. When you do, you release a burden off of your shoulders. As the book by M. L. Stedman, “The Light Between Oceans” says, “You only have to forgive once. To resent, you have to do it all day, every day.”

7. Time

Do not expect an instant bounce back in your relationship. It takes time and there are a lot of ups and downs. Try to focus on the ups, and work through the downs with patience. Pushing or expecting things to be better too soon can be very damaging. Give the other person time to work through the situation also.

8. Realize that relationships change, and embrace it

Sometimes we want to get a relationship back to where it was before. People don’t go back. We are constantly changing, and hopefully improving. Move forward with the way your relationship is now and be happy that you were able to overcome the feeling of brokenness.

Relationships are hard, but being able to work through the hurt and disappointment shows real maturity and strength of character.

“The one thing most studies on happiness agree on is this: Family and relationships are the surest way to happiness.”

That does not mean we will be happy with all of our relationships all of the time. We need to work on them. Following the eight tips above will help lead to better relationships and happier lives.

*Side note: If you are in a harmful and dangerous relationship that is destructive to you and the people closest to you, please get help and leave. Your safety and well-being is very important.* cool

Work on healing the relationship of love you have for yourself by following the steps listed above.

Romance5 Reasons Why Nigerian Women Cheat And How To Prevent It (Must Read)!!! by SleekyP(op): 12:40am On May 27, 2015
SleekyP:
1. Age trigger

Decade and half-decade birthdays can be a hard time for a ladies. Women clocking such ages as 30, 35, 40, 50, etc might think about their life and its directions, and if it is not going the way they wants, she might want to correct this by having an affair.

Advice for men: be there for her. According to the statistics, there are two dates when any straight Nigerian woman wants a men in her bed: her birthday and the New Year’s Eve. Don’t leave her solo and don’t forget about the presents.


2. She got a promotion

Women, as much as men, love to achieve their goals.. And when she is able to conquer one of her job-related challenges, she might focus on another – her relationship. She might want to take some risk with her relationship, or might want to find excitement in the arms of another man. Also women who have big salaries are more likely to cheat.

Advice for men: be with your girl. Celebrate all her accomplishments, even those ones which you consider to be unimportant. When she feels like you admire and respect her, she will feel valued at home as much as she does at work.

3. You start to live together

Things change when you start to live together. When you share all the boring routine moments of your life, she can subconsciously think that you consider her to be boring too. And if there’s someone else around who finds her attractive and intriguing-and shows it-she might go for him instead. One survey found that 41 percent of women who’ve cheated did it with a coworker. Also, after moving in, women start dreaming about engagement or marriage.

Advice: Talk with her about the future and make it clear that you want her in your future.


4. She thinks you have cheated

Affair as a revenge is very common. Women sometimes do this to restore their self-esteem and feel attractive and desirable again.

Advice: If you cheated or are cheating, confess. Try to apologize. If you were not cheating you have got a paranoid girlfriend. Maybe she has low self-confidence. So you should try to compliment her sincerely and often. Make her feel better about herself.

5. She wants to break up with you

One more reason on why woman might cheat – She is about to dump you. So she may cheat to have a reason to do so.

Advice: Let her go. She is not your woman.

Health5 Things You Don't Know About Watermelon by SleekyP(op):
Watermelon is Life. It could be its refreshing sweetness or even the burst of color that adds a bit of brightness to your plate.

Thing is, there's more to watermelon than just its flavor: It boasts some powerful health benefits, too.

At 46 calories per cup, watermelon offers 20 percent of your daily intake of vitamin C and 17 percent of vitamin A.

Watermelon contains dietary fiber for digestive health as well as potassium, a mineral that helps keep blood pressure capped. No wonder there's a month-long holiday dedicated to it -- July is National Watermelon Month. Here are some other fun facts you should know about watermelon.

1. It has more lycopene than raw tomatoes.

In just one cup, watermelon has 1.5 times the stuff than a large fresh tomato, 6 milligrams compared to 4 milligrams. That matters because lycopene is thought to act as a super antioxidant, stopping free radicals from damaging your cells and messing with your immune system. Some research even suggests that lycopene, typically found in red fruits and vegetables, may help fight heart disease and several types of cancer. Pro tip: To retain the most antioxidants in this delicious superfood, store your watermelon at room temperature before slicing.

2. The juice can relieve muscle soreness.

A Spanish study in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that drinking watermelon juice can actually be quite soothing after a gruelling workout. Athletes who consumed a little more than 16 ounces an hour before exercise had less muscle soreness and a lower heart rate within a day.

That may be because watermelon contains a natural substance called citrulline that's been tied to improved artery function and lower blood pressure. In fact, its ability to relax the blood vessels led Texas A&M University researchers to say watermelon has Viagra-like effects.

3. It's a fruit and a vegetable.

Talk about an overachiever. Like most fruits, watermelon is the product of a seed-producing plant and has a signature sweet taste. But it can be traced back to the squash, pumpkin and cucumber family known as Cucurbitaceae. Remember how you can eat the rind? The dual nature of watermelon makes it all edible, so there's no excuse to leave any part behind.

4. It's packed with, well, water.

Now this is a food with some serious hydration power. Watermelon is 91.5 percent water that's a big deal seeing as how being dehydrated is bad for your health. A study published in The Journal of Nutrition found that women with even mild dehydration experienced headaches, poor concentration, fatigue and worse moods. More reason to whip up some watermelon recipes, stat.

5. There's a yellow variety.

It's hard to believe there's a watermelon that's not pink on the inside, but there's another variety, known as Yellow Crimson, which has a sunny interior and a sweeter, honey-like taste. Thing is, the two are nearly identical on the outside, so unless you're reading the signs at your grocery store or farmers' market, it can be hard to tell which is which. If you want the regular pink watermelon, ask for a Crimson Sweet.

Just keep in mind that no one really knows what, if any, nutritional value the yellow variety offers. Most research has been done on the pink kind, so its best to stick with that or round up a good mix of both.

SleekyP:
Many guys have been left wondering what women really want, what they can do to make women notice them.

Well, the truth is that even women may not really know what they want – they are complex and sometimes only know what they want when they see it.

There are however some things that the average woman may get turned on by.

Here are 9 of them:

1. How you look – your general appearance can get her tuned into your channel. The problem here is that different women like different kinds of men. But the general rule is to look clean and dress neat… never unkempt. wink

2. How you eat – women hate sloppy eaters that smack their lips like sick dogs when they eat angry. Eat like a king and she’ll notice you cool

3. How you talk – women generally love funny guys and polished language. Noisy, empty joke makes don’t count

4. How you address them and others – women like men with some amount of authority and yet calm and respectful. Don’t be a bully and don’t be an underdog, just tough and cool in the right mix

5. How you smell – ever wondered why some men use expensive cologne? Well, your scent, natural and artificial, matter a lot

6. How you look at her – believe it, women love attention. If she notices your glances, she’ll be affected. Now, don’t stare, just give her the regular bold and mature look once in a while

7. How you spend – women are also moved by men who spend. They want you to buy them the world but also want you to spend with sense (the bad ones don’t care tho). They HATE cheapskates! grin grin

8. How you treat people – women, being very emotional and soft, like kind men. So let her see you being nice to people, doing favours and helping the poor

9. How you react to provocation – ah, women don’t want the beasts in us. Do you explode like a bomb when provoked? If yes, you’ll get noticed and then ignored…
There you go bros…Take my advice smiley

Patience Jonathan’s “There is God” video Nigeria’s most viewed YouTube clip ever – Google

The famous, “There is God,” video skit by the first lady, Patience Jonathan, is Nigeria’s most viewed non-music footage ever on popular online video site, YouTube, the site’s owner, Google, announced Thursday.

The video, published in 2014 by Channels TV, showed Mrs. Jonathan breaking down at a meeting over the abduction of about 276 schoolgirls by Boko Haram insurgents in Chibok, Borno State, in a dramatic display of emotion that drew global attention.

The meeting was the First Lady’s first public acknowledgement of the Chibok abduction, one of Boko Haram’s mass kidnapping that shocked the world.

Addressing a group of women, and the principal of the secondary school where the girls were seized, Mrs. Jonathan launched into what seemed a stagy show of grief, scolding the principal for her handling of the insurgents’ attack.

She questioned why the principal hesitated to honour her invitation for a meeting in Abuja, and the circumstances of the kidnap.

With not satisfactory response from the principal, the Frist Lady exploded, “All these blood you people are shedding, there is God o, there is God o, God…o….Chai, there is God o,” she lamented repeatedly before dabbing tears from her eyes with a handkerchief.

Mrs. Jonathan’s outburst was also transcribed to imitate her inflection as, “All these blood you people are sharing, diaris God o, diaris God oooo, all this bloods you are sharing, chai, chai, chai diaris God oooh”. grin grin

The video drew wide attention across the world, at a time the international community was fixed on how the Nigerian government was responding to the abduction.

The girls remain in captivity more than a year after.

The video ranking was released by Google on Thursday as YouTube celebrates its 10th year anniversary.

The most watched videos in Nigerian were ranked in the music, non-music and advert categories.

Mrs. Jonathan’s video came first in the non-music category.
