Dear Men
Letter written by a my new hollywood fascination. Either way came across it and found truth in it. some things some women wouldn't admit but i think believe in a lot of what's written is true. ha!
Dear Men,
We love your body. If we're in love with you, we love your body. Your potbelly, everything. Even if you're insecure about something, we love your body. You feel like you're not this or that? We love your body. We embrace everything. Because it's you.
Speaking of your body, you don't understand the power of your own smell. Any woman who is currently with a man is with him partly because she loves the way he smells. And if we haven't smelled you for a day or two and then we suddenly are within inches of you, we swoon. We get light-headed. It's intoxicating. It's heady.
We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women. When you mention in passing that a certain woman is attractive — could be someone in the office, a woman on the street, a celebrity, any woman in the world, really — your comment goes into a steel box and it stays there forever. We will file the comment under "Women He Finds Attractive." It's not about whether or not we approve of the comment. It's about learning what you think is sexy and how we might be able to convey it. It's about keeping our man by knowing what he likes.
Never complain about our friends — even if we do. No matter how many times we say a friend of ours is driving us crazy, you are not to pile on. Not because it offends us. But because it adds to the weight that we carry around about her.
Remember what we like. When I first started dating my husband, I had this weird fascination with the circus and clowns and old carnival things and sideshow freaks and all that. About a month after we started dating, he bought me this amazing black-and-white photo book on the circus in the 1930s, and I started sobbing. Which freaked him out. I thought, 'Oh, my God, I mentioned this three or four weeks ago and talked about it briefly, but he was really listening to me. And he actually went out and researched and found this thing for me.' It was amazing.
Stand up, open a door, offer a jacket . We talk about it with our friends after you do it. We say, "Can you believe he stood up when I approached the table?" It makes us feel important. And it makes you important because we talk about it.
Dear Men,
We love your

In a Rut
Have you ever felt just stuck in a rut. YOu find yourself in a bad mood and dont know why? you find yourself arguing w/ people for stupid things. you find yourself just annoyed at the littlest thing? well welcome to how I've been feeling this month.
I dont know if it has anything to do with Retrograde but I'm in a rut. I can't put my finger on why but poor Adam's been getting the bad end of the stick. I've been off my game at work making minor mistakes and just getting frustrated with little things. I'm hoping that I can come out of this feeling really soon. I hate being like this especially to others.

Burnt Biscuits
Got a chain forward email from someone. and there was an important msg that stood out to me.
You know, life is full of imperfect things.....and imperfect people. I'm
not the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries
just like everyone else.
What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each others
faults - and choosing to celebrate each others differences - is one of
the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting
relationship.
WORD!!! UNDERSTANDING IS KEY TO ANY RELATIONSHIP!!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
I love the way you know me and things about me that nobody else knows.
The way you can tell when I'm upset or want to talk, before I even say a word.
The way you know when to let me go or pull me close,
and how you make me laugh when I feel like I'm losing my mind.
I love the way you keep my secrets safe and my dreams alive.
I love the way it feels to be known
and loved
and accepted by you
----- just as I am.
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY BABY!!!

If you want a good man get it together. If you have a good man keep it together.
I was having this convo w/ a co-worker and her friend. The friend was complaining about how all the men are dogs. They always cheat on her and they treat her like crap. And while I was sitting there listening to her talk all I kept thinking about was this video that I came across somewhere online. Till this day I can’t find that video or can’t remember for the life in me where I saw it at. But anywho the message was powerful and the freakin true!! one of those things i really remember like if i just saw it. lol.
This woman was saying how women walk around saying there are no good men out there, all men are dogs, all good men are taken or gay….yada yada yada. but she said that there are plenty of good men out there. But they’re not going to walk into your life if you’re not ready to BE what a good man wants. DEEP right?!
That was just the beginning. She went on to say that if you’re in a place in your life where you’re not doing the same things that you want from a man then you’re not gonna get one. Plain and simple. Women have list ..they want a man who has a nice car, makes a lot of money but when you look at yourself – what do you bring to the table. You want a man that looks good but you’re out of shape. You want a man that has money in the bank but you’re broke or your credit is bad. Make sense right?!!! She was on point. She said something like we have to really find out what we want and see what we’re doing to attract that. Because whatever we’re complaining about & saying what we don’t want- that’s what we probably got. Crazy I know!
It goes back to the old cliché if you want love you have to love yourself first. you have to know what it feels like to love yourself so that someone else can love you. WORD!
Now I don’t have a perfect relationship (god knows I don’t) and I’m not claiming to no one that my relationship is the best thing ever. BUT I have been w/ my Adam for 10 years. We’ve seen ups and we’ve seen downs. And even after all these years after I watched and listened to this video I was flabbergasted by how much truth she was speaking. try it..try her way of thinking. If you want your man or guy in your life to treat you a certain way or you want them to do something then do that something or treat them like what you want and you’ll see they’ll return it to you. Crazy but it works. Trust me!!!!
