How to Train Your Husband Like a Dog...

Please give a little lee-way with this article's title- I am not anti men! This article made a lot of sense to me when I read it and I had made a lot of these changes slowly by myself. I think they are good pointers and I wanted to share.

Recently I had a conversation with my other half in which he told me that he felt like he was being taking for granted. I had been neglecting no. 4. (This conversation also helped me realise that my hubbies Love Language is Words of Affirmation.)

1) STOP NAGGING, STOP SHOUTING

I love Me First - I love You Second

(Taken from The New Happy Me)

The title may sound very selfish to some, but selfish is good when you consider the fact that it is impossible to love another, if you don’t love yourself first!

Makes you think, doesn’t it?

I just had an interesting conversation with a friend about love, romance, companionship and relationships in general. Being in the self-discovery and healing mode myself, I am not interested in companionship right now. I don’t miss romance and I am not looking for it. My sole focus is on learning to TRULY LOVE MYSELF.

In loving myself, I am learning to respect my needs without compromise. Women and mothers often tend to sacrifice themselves for others but end up losing themselves and no longer being able to care for their loved ones. What good is that?

In loving myself, I am learning my self-worth, how much my time, my energy, my body, mind and soul are precious. I do not give them away. I respect myself and in doing so, I teach others to respect me too.  

In loving myself, I teach others how to love me too. I deserve to be loved and to be loved well. I am love, I give love and when I receive love, I accept it.  Love is in everything I do, speak and feel. I surround myself with this energy to expand it to all around me. The results are marvelous.

Love & Relationships

Taken from : Sex, Love, Liberation

The severing of love runs rampant in our world. Irreconcilable differences. Conflicts of interest. Petty disagreements.

Any couplings that falter underneath such hardships were simply not taken to their fullest potential.

Love never fails. It waxes & wanes, of course, due to the maliciousness that monotony can sometimes produce in our lives. But love itself never fails.

Silly infatuation & half-hearted affairs do.
