FBI: Airline bomb threat to keep husband from mistress


Participating in a intimate relationship can bring out the best in us. They can also trigger extremes in our emotions felt ranging from overwhelming feelings of elation to anger which makes a person act in irrational ways. When others observe a individual feeling content beyond belief most are so happy for them, however if it is anger or sadistic feelings expressed, there could be criminal consequences.

The Leading Man Role in You

Are all the good men left as compassionate as we hope? Yes. The topic of a compassionate male is rarely discussed. Nor, is it something we frequently read about in the media, or see featured on the big screen, with exception of Lifetime and Hallmark Channel weekend marathon movies.

By Dr. Lawana Rene’ Lofton, PsyD

Most Romantic Comedies’ leading male roles feature a assertive, yet sensitive, humorous, approachable, charismatic male, often depicted as more than willing to risk either pride, or humility when called for to obtain the object of their desire.

The drama unfolds however in the preceding moments when the male character struggles with conflicts, and to question if he really wants to compromise “something” before he actually decides to compromise pride, or humility to go after the gorgeous side kick making things more complicated than need be.

Our Fascination with Relationship Lists

How To Apply Them To Reduce Relationship Conflicts
 
Relationship Lists summarize complicated information down to a sound bite. Gender specific “secrets” men and woman keep catch our attention because we hope to learn something new about the opposite sex.

By Dr. Lawana R. Lofton, PsyD

In reading Relationship Lists we hope to find some kernel of information, familiar, to explain why encounters with the opposite sex can be so challenging at times. More importantly, we harbor hope of finding new information regarding the intricate details which make up the ever elusive complexity of relationships, Self Help, and even reassurance we are doing things right in our existing relationship.

Many lists with titles “The Secrets Men Keep” or “ 9 Secrets Woman will never tell you, but wish you knew” never lose their ability to be recycled, and we are drawn to them. We tell ourselves “I am a rational person and knows how the opposite sex functions” but still we suspect there maybe a bit of secrecy left hidden about the opposite sex these lists can shed light on updated for a modern society.

If really nothing has changed about the opposite sex over the decades, have you ever wondered why there is a need for so many recycled Relationship Lists?

History
