When I stared writing this blog back in June, I set aside a little section called “Date Movies” where I began to list some great movies that you could check out with your date or significant other (in fact, it was the first blog post I ever wrote). Needless to say, I have neglected this portion of the blog…even though I promised to feature a different movie each week. So without further ado, I will start of with one of my favorite romantic films, Say Anything.
Say Anything (ROMANCE - 1989 – Starring John Cusack and Ione Skye): Written and Directed by Cameron Crowe, Say Anything is a feel-good romantic comedy about first love. Lloyd (John Cusack) is an optimistic High School graduate whose only certainty in life is that he wants to be with Diane (Ione Skye), a straight-A student whose future is all planned out by her over-protective father (played by John Mahoney). Is their love strong enough to withstand their differences and Diane’s disapproving father?
Let’s face it, movie critics can have a lot of power and what they say can either bring in visitors or keep them away (most of the time). But have you ever decided to keep track of those critics who can’t seem to get it right?
Infidelity is one of the hardest things to go through in a relationship. What may even be worse then finding out that your boyfriend is cheating on you, is wondering if it is happening or not. At first, you may see signs and begin to have doubts. You may even ask if there is someone else. He empathically answers no and assures you that everything is ok, but still you continue to have your doubts. You may even feel as if you are going crazy or feel upset that you don’t trust your boyfriend. Well, before you decide to elicit the help of the “Cheaters” team, here are some things that you can look out for to help determine if in fact, he is cheating on you.
You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Therefore, what happens on a first date can set the course of your future. If you want to ensure that your first date is a hit and leads to a second, then you may want to curb your topic of conversation and stay away from some issues that are sure to stir up the waters of debate. Controversy is not a great subject for first date dinner discussions (unless both parties are members of a debate team) but even then, it would be better to stick with general and more pleasant dialogue. Here are some issues that should be avoided at all cost when on a first date.
When it comes to romance, everything hinges upon that first interaction. When you are first attracted to someone it may be something as simple as a gaze, or locking eyes that let’s you know there is plenty of chemistry between the two of you. But without ever having the opportunity to communicate, you may never find out if that person may be Mr. or Mrs. Right.
You may have been friends for years. You shared secrets, talked about each other’s relationships, and knew you were always destined to be buddies. But now it seems something has changed. First, you notice that you can’t wait for your best friend to call. You get nervous when you are around each other, and the thought of your best friend with another love interest is invoking feelings of envy and jealousy. You ask yourself, "Is it possible? Have I actually fallen in love with my best friend?"
