Nobody wants to enter a new relationship with old
baggage. If you really like someone and have an
intention of forming a solid, strong relationship, it's
important to let go of things that are bound to cause
your relationship's demise.
Holly Riordan of All Women Stalk lists 7 signs that
you're in a mature, healthy relationship.
1. You rarely argue:
Every couple has arguments. You are two different #people with two different opinions and viewpoints. However, if you notice that arguments in your current relationship are few and far in-between, this is a sign that you're finally in a mature, healthy #relationship with
someone who doesn’t nitpick or stir up unnecessary drama.
2. Your arguments are easily resolved:
Not only do you fight less in this #relationship, when
arguments or disagreements occur, you’re able to
handle them like mature individuals. Instead of
yelling and talking over each other, you give
yourself #time to calm down and express how you
feel without belittling the other person.
3. You trust each other:
In the past, maybe you didn't trust your partner. Maybe you were cheated on, or perhaps your #partner was a habitual liar. If you absolutely, 100% trust the person you're with, this is a good sign that the #relationship is
moving in the right direction. You don't feel a need
to go through your partner’s cell phone or emails
to make sure he's being honest, nor do you feel
the need to question his whereabouts every
second of the day.
4. You give each other space:
Some partners are extremely clingy and want to be together every minute of the day. Everyone needs space. As you become older and start establishing mature
relationships, you'll understand the importance of
giving your #partner space, and taking space for
yourself. You have a life outside the #relationship,
so don’t feel bad about hanging out with your
friends or family alone, or exploring personal
interests.
5. You know how to communicate:
Good communication is important in any relationship.
Now that you're in a mature, healthy relationship,
you and your partner communicate in a way that
builds each other up and strengthens the #
relationship. There's no name-calling or belittling.
If you learn that your #partner doesn't like the
way you talk to him, you make an effort to change
the behavior.
6. You bring out the best in each other:
Another sign of a good, healthy #relationship is bringing out the best in each other. Your #partner might motivate
you to follow your paths and dreams, and you
might give him support or encouragement when
he's feeling down. When it's all said and done,
you want to be the best #girlfriend.
7. He puts your needs ahead of his own:
A selfish, one-sided relationship isn't healthy or mature. If
you think about your partner’s feelings more than
yours, and if you’re more than happy to put his
needs ahead of your own and vice versa, the
relationship will likely get stronger and you'll
become a closer couple. Relationships don't work
when people only care about their needs.

DO ME THIS FAVOUR - PLEASE SHARE My husband is an Engineer by profession, I love him for his steady nature, and I love the warm feeling when I lean against his broad shoulders. Three years of courtship and now, two years into marriage, I would have to admit, that I am getting tired of it. The reasons of me loving him before, has now transformed into the cause of all my restlessness. I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive when it comes to a relationship and my feelings, I yearn for the romantic moments, like a little girl yearning for candy. My husband, is my complete opposite, his lack of sensitivity, and the inability of bringing romantic moments into our marriage has disheartened me about love. One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I wanted a divorce. “Why?” he asked, shocked. “I am tired, there are no reasons for everything in the world!” I answered. He kept silent the whole night, seems to be in deep thought with a lighted cigarette at all times. My feeling of disappointment only increased, here was a man who can’t even express his predicament, what else can I hope from him? And finally he asked me:” What can I do to change your mind?” Somebody said it right, it’s hard to change a person’s personality, and I guess, I have started losing faith in him. Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered : “Here is the question, if you can answer and convince my heart, I will change my mind, Let’s say, I want a flower located on the face of a mountain cliff, and we both are sure that picking the flower will cause your death, will you do it for me?” He said :” I will give you your answer tomorrow….” My hopes just sank by listening to his response. I woke up the next morning to find him gone, and saw a piece of paper with his scratchy handwriting, underneath a milk glass, on the dining table near the front door, that goes…. My dear, “I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me to explain the reasons further..” This first line was already breaking my heart. I continued reading. “When you use the computer you always mess up the Software programs, and you cry in front of the screen, I have to save my fingers so that I can help to restore the programs. You always leave the house keys behind, thus I have to save my legs to rush home to open the door for you. You love traveling but always lose your way in a new city, I have to save my eyes to show you the way. You always have the cramps whenever your “good friend” approaches every month, I have to save my palms so that I can calm the cramps in your tummy

You like to stay indoors, and I worry that you will be infected by infantile autism. I have to save my mouth to tell you jokes and stories to cure your boredom. You always stare at the computer, and that will do nothing good for your eyes, I have to save my eyes so that when we grow old, I can help to clip your nails, and help to remove those annoying white hairs. So I can also hold your hand while strolling down the beach, as you enjoy the sunshine and the beautiful sand… and tell you the color of flowers, just like the color of the glow on your young face… Thus, my dear, unless I am sure that there is someone who loves you more than I do… I could not pick that flower yet, and die.. ” My tears fell on the letter, and blurred the ink of his handwriting… and as I continue on reading… “Now, that you have finished reading my answer, if you are satisfied, please open the front door for I am standing outside bringing your favorite bread and fresh milk… I rush to pull open the door, and saw his anxious face, clutching tightly with his hands, the milk bottle and loaf of bread…. Now I am very sure that no one will ever love me as much as he does, and I have decided to leave the flower alone… That’s life, and love. When one is surrounded by love, the feeling of excitement fades away, and one tends to ignore the true love that lies in between the peace and dullness. Love shows up in all forms, even very small and cheeky forms, it has never been a model, it could be the most dull and boring form.. . flowers, and romantic moments are only used and appear on the surface of the relationship. Under all this, the pillar of true love stands… and that’s our life… Love, not words win arguments… Credits:Prince Joy Joseph

It was once a rumour but does this new photo tells the truth?
Chris Brown and girlfriend Karruech Tran could be expecting their first child together!
Even though its still not comfirmed by any of the parties yet, a recent picture of the model with a portruding stomach yesterday in Los Angeles sparked pregancy rumours.
Brown's on-and-off girl was at the AIDS WALK yesterday and
an photog managed to snap a flick of her. The model seemed glued to her cell phone while her strangely bigger tommy was doing all the talking.
However this news comes when Brown has been accused of fathering a three year old child with a popular Atlanta stripper known as "Reign".

1. Be patient to your partner; avoid putting your lover on tension to do something which he or she is not ready to do. Let everything come automatically in the right time. No need to rush.

2. Always spare time for your lover; Cease telling your spouse all the time that you are busy. When will you have time for him or her? Recall in the past you had time to corn her, to call or text him but now why can’t you? Come on try to fix some time for your dude or babe, meet and have fun and some good memorable moments. 3.
