"We can scare ourselves or inspire ourselves.
We can make the word "love mean pain or use it as a celebration of caring.
We can see people as objects of scorn or as human beings, though perhaps imperfect and capable of unhappy acts.
We are in charge.
We are the artchitects of our own attitudes and experiences.
We design the world by the way we choose it"

Oprah and Advice on Men

2005-09-03T21:21:00.000+05:00

HEAR WHAT OPRAH HAD TO SAY ABOUT MEN:

my favorites are in bold:

If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay

Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.

Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better.

Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.

If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends" A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. Don't settle.

If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.

Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

The only person you can control in a relationship is you. SO TRUE!

Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?

Always have your own set of friends separate from his.

Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you.

If something bothers you, speak up.

Never let a man know everything.* He will use it against you later.

You cannot change a man's behavior.* Change comes from within.

Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job.

Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.

Never let a man define who you are.

Never borrow someone else's man. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.

A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is two way street.

You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage... deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.

You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone
complimentary...not supplementary.

Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.)Definitely)

Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted.

Never co-sign for a man.

Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.

Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

so which ones do you agree with?

i love this quote

2005-08-28T18:38:00.000+05:00

i came across a post by kuwaitilady which was her favorite quote from sex and the city..

this is mine:

Carrie: When it comes to relationships, maybe we're all in glass houses, and shouldn't throw stones. Because you can never really know. Some people are settling down, some are settling and some people refuse to settle for anything less. Than butterflies...

What I want

2005-08-25T20:28:00.000+05:00

THE SCENE
They looked so cosy and safe in their small living room...snuggled infront of the fireplace, nestled in each other's arms..
she(looking up into his eyes): "i feel strongly for you..i really do..you're obviously a genuine, caring person..but i have been hurt so much in the past.. i'm afraid of being used"
he( looking down deeply into her eyes):"i know what you mean..i don't want you to be hurt either..i'd never hurt you."

She clings to him and her fears melt away..and their lips lock in trembling kisses

I get carried away by these sensual scenes. i'm a sucker for mushy romantic movies, and soft music, candle-lit dinners ..flowers, chocolates,
slow dancing....(sigh!)

Is it just me...?

My EX

2005-08-16T17:37:00.000+05:00

First off, Thanx everyone for your warm welcome..I think i'm going to love this "virtual neighborhood" ;)

i was back at work today and if found out that one my colleagues just got engaged. I was very happy for her, cuz her ultimate goal was to marry someone loaded and marry into a well known familia. As the custom goes here, All the girls from the other departments were coming over to wish her luck and joy and all that..When it was my turn, she gave me a sly look and told me "al-fal lich". For some reason, her look was saying something like i feel sorry for you..

I know that people at work had been talking about my divorce like it was a big celebrity scandal. Everyone thought we were the perfect couple until last year when they started to realize that i wasn't the sweet, talkative, vivacious girl i had been before the marriage. But for some reason the girls look they are almost glad that i am separated...like whispering behind my back and so. Maybe i am rambling on, but it really hurt me the look she gave me. I tend to be very discreet about my failed marriage. My ex was in a very selfish, shallow, egotistical maniac. I tried leaving him 3 times during the years we were together,but everytime he implores me and begs me to get back to him..Finally, after one holiday spent entirely with him, i decided that it can never be mended. I had lost all respect and love for him. I'm already in tears again recalling all of this. i will have to stop. until next post
