Are adults more sensitive than children?




Research has proven that indeed adults are more sensitve than children. Some of the reasons are as follows:


When children are not feeling well, regardless of the reason, they are often doled with attention and pity. However when an adult is not feeling well or grieving, they are still expected to perform at top level.

Children can get away with making some decisions using their emotional state strictly. However, adults are expected to be able to pay close and careful attention and make decisions irregardless of their emotional state, which at times is not often easy.

Children have more room to vent when they are upset. When adults argue and fight, even when they agree to make up there is still usually some resentment or hostility. But, when children get into fights or arguments usually they can find a quiet room to listen to the radio, aplogize and move foward with the friendship.

Adults have more responsibility than children. Often children can fantasize about what is happening and about the future and live in a state of euphoria. But as adults age, old defenses and ways of coping with problems and issues can wear away causing even more problems and emotional turmoil.

As adults age and mature the stakes become higher. For example a teenager is expected to date more than one individual, be indecisive about what they want to do for a living, and they have some room to find out who they are. But by a certain age, an adult is held more accountable for their actions by their peers, employers, friends, and the universe.

As a result, adults can live in constant fear of not being able to survive or not being good enough. Because adults relationships are expected to become more serious as they age, it raises the discomfort level as for as becoming intimate is concerned.

What do to when he says goodbye?



Breaking up can be difficult for both people ending a relationship. You may feel many emotions including anger, disappointment, jealousy, envy, guilt, and sorrow. However, you can't let these emotions determine whether or not you are able to survive and move on with your life. Following these tips will allow you to continue to hold your head up high and move on with grace.

Acknowledge the fact that the relationship is over.

You may feel like arguing with him or begging him to come back. You may also be tempted to make promises you can't keep in order to keep him from leaving. But, you should accept the fact that the relationship is over. Your mate may know this even if you don't. The reasons why are unimportant at this particuliar time.

Think about the advantages of being apart

Maybe you really wanted to be single all long. Here's your opportunity to get out on the single's scene. If you wanted to pursue a new career, at this time you may be able to do so. Or perhaps you enjoyed lounging around the house. You no longer have to worry about him telling you what to do or when to do it.

Think of it as a learning experience

If it was a bad relationship, you should view the relationship as a chanceto find out who you are and as a opportunity to grow. Accept the lesson and use it to improve your future relationship.

Affirm the positive

Don't think that you will never meet someone else that will love and care about you. Instead affirm that you have been loved before; and therefore you will be loved by another mate. If you were hurt, know that you will get past the pain and begin feeling good again.

Take care of yourself

Continue to eat properly. Perform household chores to the best of your ability. Visit a spa and let someone else pamper you.

Look for new opportunities to find love

Don't immediately begin to search for someone who looks like or reminds you of your ex. Get to know different people. Spend more time with your children doing the things that they love. They will probably give you joy also. Buy a vase of flowers or get a pet.

What Does Your Child Really Want?

Why Do I Want It So Much?






Sex can be a wonderful experience for many people. But, as good as sex can feel, the hangover is not always sweet. What do you do when your relationships always end on a bitter note? Does the after taste stick to you like a piece of bitter sweet chocolate lingering on your tongue? These tips will help you to pick up the pieces and move on to finding lasting love and intimacy.

 

Don’t mistake sex for love

Many women attempt to measure how much their mate loves them by the amount of time they spend having intercourse. But, unless you two share some genuine, warm feelings for each other, you are no closer to finding lasting love than a bird trying to fly without wings.

Men are often excited about and enjoy having sex with different women. So, just because he’s in a good mood or performs very well doesn’t mean he has feelings for you conducive to a serious, love relationship.

 

Don’t think sex can substitute for love

Remember Romancing the Stone. In this movie, the leading stars appear to have loving feelings toward each other, although they are constantly on the verge of killing each other. You don’t want your romance to leave you with emotional repercussions. Nor do you want a tragedy. It’s okay to try and keep thinks heated in the bedroom. But, if your mate is not spending quality time with you outside of this area, you may want to keep your options open.

 

Don’t ignore the way you feel

Lots of people, because of the way they perceive their childhood experiences, grow up feeling as if they are unlovable or incapable of being loved. These people can’t stand their own company because they don’t like themselves very much. As a result, they try to keep as many people around them as possible. However, unfortunately, they often are drawn to people who will ultimately abandon them or break their hearts in some other way.

 

Don’t neglect other areas of your life

Sex cannot replace your career, children, money, friends, or a good mate. Balance is the key. Your romantic life is only a small piece of the pie. Doing so will keep sex from meaning so much that it becomes detrimental to your emotion, physical, and emotional well being.

Are You An Impulse Shopper?






How many times have you gone into the store and without much thought picked up an item and placed it into your cart regardless of whether or not you could really afford it or not.

You are known to be an impulse shopper. Someone who’s subconscious desires and other emotions lead them to shop.

However, how many times have you put back a new item thinking that you already have one or too many only to discover later on that you needed it? For example, you put back that new bottle of bubble bath, just to discover that your kids have pissed you off quite terribly. Or maybe you already have an assortment of hammers only to discover that the one you really need is missing.

Could you be an impulse shopper or is the universe just helping you out. And if so how can you tell?

If the item is something that you will really need, you will zero in on the item without being able to walk away immediately?

Once you walk away from the item, you sense that you need to go back and pick up?

You continue to notice the item in other people’s cart, almost as if it is staring you in the face?

If you answer yes to all of these questions , then there is a good chances that God’s heavenly angels are with you.
