Have you ever thought you knew someone and then suddenly he or she turned on a dime? There are some traits which people can keep hidden well for a while – and then after we get to know them, “surprise!” Insecurity is a trait which can either be obvious from the beginning or kept under wraps for a long time. Have you ever met a guy that was caught off guard by a cool, collected girl that suddenly started crying, yelling, and accusing him of looking at another woman? Have you ever met a girl that thought she was with Prince Charming and then suddenly he became suspicious of every guy within a … [Read more...]
Major Turn Offs in Relationships – Bragging (Turn Offs, Part 1)
Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be talking about turn offs in relationships. It’s important to talk about these because what seems like a turn off to one person may not seem like a turn off to someone else – and it would be a shame for someone who would otherwise be an incredible match to not take the opportunity to get to know you better based on something you’re not aware is a problem. For example, I tend to be overly apologetic to people. At first, it may not be a problem, but after I apologize for the seventh or eighth time, it becomes annoying. This is not something that happens … [Read more...]
Never Give Up on Those in the Dark Side (Star Wars, Part 6)
Three cheers for me! I finished the entire Star Wars series, and if that doesn’t impress you – well, it should! ~smile~ For some reason, I have avoided watching the Star Wars series in its entirety for many years citing that I am just not a science fiction person. And though I’m still not a science fiction person (I will probably never learn Klingon or send my kids to space camp), I am proud to have experienced one of the highest grossing and most beloved series of all time. Most of all, I am glad to finally know what people are talking about when they quote Yoda. ~smile~ The final movie, … [Read more...]
You Don’t Have to Repeat the Sins of Your Parents (Star Wars, Part 5)
Yoda’s back! I missed him in Episode IV! I guess if you’ve only watched A New Hope (Episode IV), you wouldn’t know to miss him. But once you’ve enjoyed Yoda’s wisdom, how can you go back? ~smile~ Anyway, the Death Star was destroyed at the end of Episode IV and Darth Vader is obsessed with finding Luke. Think about the man you respect less than anyone else on Earth. Now imagine that you’ve just found out he’s your father! Luke seemed less freaked out to discover that Leia was his sister (but that doesn’t come until the last episode) than to find out Darth Vader was his father. Then again, … [Read more...]
Don’t Date Your Sister and Other Advice (Star Wars, Part 4)
I enjoyed Episode IV so much more after seeing the back story! And it’s always fun watching the beginning of a romance. I’m not talking about the Luke and Leia side of the love triangle, but rather Princess Leia and Han Solo’s relationship. (Though, when Luke first saw Leia on the hologram, he commented on her beauty. He didn’t know yet that she was his sister, but for me watching, it was weird just the same. ~smile~) In the beginning of A New Hope, Princess Leia and Han Solo’s relationship was characterized in Episode IV by sarcastic remarks, eye rolls, and constant jabs. However, there … [Read more...]
