Inspiring and motivating stories, tips and articles about love and relationship
Do you want to know if there is true love that exists within your romantic relationship? The following signs will give you confidence that the love you and your partner have in your relationship is real.
You are ready to give up your comfort zone, important possessions, self-centered ambitions, and even your own happiness to make your partner happy and your relationship healthy.
It’s easy to be in a relationship, yet it’s hard to keep a relationship healthy.
Sometimes, love is not enough to keep a relationship healthy. I’ve heard a lot of people telling me about their unhealthy relationships yet they still love their partners and chose to stay in that situation. I know it is very likely to have feelings of love for someone even if you feel like you’re caged. According to Readers Digest, 57 percent of those in unhappy relationships still find their partner extremely attractive.
But you can’t just have a successful connection between your partner behind those three words and eight letters (I LOVE YOU). It is also important to recognize that “Love” is just one part of a whole because there are other ingredients to make it solid and healthy.
Now, if you’re in a relationship and wondering what it takes to have a healthy relationship, try these key ingredients to make it stronger, happier and long-lasting.
Every girl has once dreamed of meeting their Prince Charming, their mighty savior on a white horse who can finally transform their fantasy into a tangible reality. The trouble with these kinds of fairy-tales is that they often end at the point where the relationship really begins. However, our ideal definition of a “perfect man” doesn’t really give us the genuine reality of finally being with that one person who will make our world magical – especially if we talk about long-term relationships.

“A sister is a gift to the heart, a friend to the spirit, a golden thread to the meaning of life.”- Badora James
When mom and dad don’t understand, a sister always will. Sisters are good, harsh, complicated, and everything in between. Having a sister is both a punishment and a gift any way you see it. You both share memories nobody else can ever connect within a special way. Your sister may inspire you or cause you a headache but she is your sister and nothing will come in your way that could change it. Being a big sister is fun but is also a great responsibility. So for you to be a good, loving, and better big sister you might want to consider the following ways.
“There is nothing on this earth to be prized than true friendship” –Thomas Aquinas
Friendships are the most valuable relationship that is not given to you but is for you to find them yourself and it’s the time we spent with friends that makes every moment more precious on earth.
They are the family we choose for ourselves, the people who will accept us and stay with us. How we will treasure them and the moments we share with them is up to us.
Through these simple but thoughtful gestures, let them know how happy you are that in this journey of uncertainty you have found true friendship in them.
Every individual expresses love differently and while some are good with words, there are just others who don’t have the ability to fully and effectively say what they feel especially when it matters the most. Such failure to convey emotions can often be a problem, especially in romantic relationships. In fact, it creates doubt and uncertainty that can often weaken the bond between two people in love.
If you’re one of those who are starting to feel uncertain or unsure about whether their partner still loves you or not, this is for you. This article will explore the different expressions of love and the complicated language in which it is spoken.
These are the signs that your partner is truly in love with you:
While some people are really private when it comes to their love life, there are others who just can’t help but tell the world about everything that’s going on with their relationship: from their recent romantic getaways, screenshots of the last text messages they’ve sent to each other, photos of their sweet and thoughtful anniversary presents, to the long and often grand status updates declaring their promises of eternal love for their partner, etc.
There’s nothing wrong with openly expressing your love for someone and many can agree that it’s such a sweet and romantic gesture to find your name or your photo on the Facebook newsfeed paired with the most thoughtful and sincerest words that anyone has ever written just to impress you.
However, happy couples don’t really need all the attention that most Facebook love birds crave. In fact, people in a strong and healthy relationship do things differently online and pretty much exert all their sincere and genuine efforts privately offline, away from the public eye.
To fully understand what we’re trying to say here, let’s first take a look at some of the things that truly happy couples don’t do on Facebook.
All relationships start from within you. It takes a part of you to be able to connect with someone other than yourself. You need to be emotionally stable to form a relationship. So my question is, are you emotionally ready? Do you think if someone sweeps you off your feet right now, you are ready to get to know the other person?
Take a deep breath. Find your inner self and reassess it. Ask yourself if you have these signs or traits of someone who is ready to be in a relationship.
The truth is, there is no established way of knowing the exact and absolute definition of falling in love. After all, we’re talking about something that comes in the most enigmatic and unpredictable form that it’s impossible to fully figure out what it really is and how it can change someone’s life for good.
In addition, while most people can tell if they’ve finally fallen in love, some aren’t that lucky to be in the most obvious and less confusing circumstances. Love being both mysterious and impulsive, can sometimes be unrecognizable, failing to give out the usually obvious hints that reveal one’s romantic attraction towards another person. The question is, how would you know if you’re already caught in the love spell? Is it really possible to not know that you’re actually falling in love?
To answer these questions, here’s a list of unfamiliar signs that you’re in love with someone.
The strongest of relationships are often built on three things: love, trust and respect. If you think about it, it’s a simple formula. Anyone willing enough to abide by their “unwritten rules” is on their way to finding an honest, unconditional and genuine connection that can last a lifetime.
However, long-distance relationships are a different story. The same love advice you often read about is not enough to manage its overlapping and more complex setup. This is because aside from the physical distance that couples have to deal with, the emotional and mental stress that anyone who is so far away from that person who makes their world whole is just too much – especially if it’s their first time to be in love.
If you’re one of the poor souls who are slowly failing the challenges of being in a long-distance relationship, don’t give up yet. Instead, let this article help you find your way back to a happier and more optimistic future with the person you love.
Here are some inspiring tips for a successful long-distance relationship:

There’s nothing wrong with being single. In fact, most of the happiest people have embraced singlehood and discovered the joys of living an independent and attachment-free life without feeling alone and lonely – but what if you also want to share your most memorable days with someone special?
Sometimes, the happiness and independence of singlehood aren’t enough anymore that some people tend to try their luck at finding love. Others easily succeed at it without even exerting much effort and finally meet the love of their life.
We all know that most of the time, destiny isn’t too willing to give us what we want. However, more often than not, it’s not destiny that’s the problem – it’s us. So how would we know if we’re the ones sabotaging our own chances of finding true love? Well, let this article help you figure it out.
Here are the most overlooked reasons why you are still single.
There are many reasons why couples break up and most of these can be prevented if only both parties have the willingness to see and understand the things that are really causing the problems in the first place. Some signs can be obvious, directly and instantly launching their attacks but others come in the form of small bits of negativities that can accumulate over time until it can gather enough strength to break even the strongest of bonds.
If you don’t want this to happen to you or anyone you care about, this article will help you point out some of the many things and habits that will destroy your relationship. More importantly, we’ll provide you with some realistic tips and long-term solutions on how to avoid and finally overcome them.
First of all, a relationship can be vulnerable to break up when:
In my previous article, I discussed 12 signs from the Bible that may guide single ladies in choosing the right guy to marry. The article received positive feedback and became quite popular so I think it would be nice to also write something for single men this time – an article that will guide them in finding the right woman to be their wife.
You might be wondering why there are more guides (20 vs. 12) in finding the right wife than in finding the right husband. I believe it’s because a woman who’ll become both a wife and a mother will have greater physical, mental and emotional responsibilities than a husband and a father.
I think it’s not unfair since most women who are naturally born to be good wives and mothers will not find them difficult to follow and fulfill. In fact, the majority of my friends naturally became good wives and caring mothers when they entered married life.
But of course, just like men, there is still a percentage of women whom single guys should avoid if they don’t want to live a miserable life with the wrong wife.
How do you differentiate between love and lust? You might be too consumed by your relationship now that you actually cannot identify what you truly feel for your partner.
If the reason why you wanted to be with the person was that you were attracted to his/her being ‘hot’, then maybe it was not really loved that brought you together. Probably, it was only the thrill of owning someone that could satisfy your needs and fantasies.
Here are 12 differences between love and lust that you should know to find out if you’re really in love with your partner or just physically attracted to him/her.
A husband is someone whom you will be spending with for the rest of your life. He will be the son-in-law to your parents and the father to your children. He is supposed to be the pillar of your home and the strength of your family.
Marrying the wrong man could mean a lifetime of suffering, not only for you but also for your future children. Unlike breaking up with a boyfriend which can be done in an instant, the separation between a husband and a wife is a different thing. Its wound is deeper, its cost is higher, and its impact on the people around you is greater.
Marriage is both a legal and a sacred thing, governed by the law of our land and the law of the heavens. Thus, ladies have to be extra careful in choosing the guy they should marry. This also applies in looking for a boyfriend, since a BF is the closest guy who can be their husband.
To guide you in finding the right guy whom you will be exchanging wedding vows with at the altar, here are 12 signs from the Bible that he’s the man you should marry.
How sure are you that what you feel for your special someone right now is true love? Is it just because you feel like the world stands still whenever s/he passes by? Or is it because you cannot get him/her out of your head?
Sometimes, what we think to be love is actually infatuation. It is too much admiration for someone that causes you poor judgments and pre-occupation. You feel so much attraction to the point that you become head over heels for that person. It is usually mistaken for love—but it is actually way different.
So, how do you know if what you feel is love or infatuation? Scroll down and read these 12 differences:
To find a true lover who can give you real love, you have to know what true love is. To attract and keep him/her, you have to give a genuine love in return. Knowing how to distinguish pure love from false love will give you wisdom on building a long-lasting relationship and avoiding the toxic ones. …
Yes, it’s possible to live a fulfilling life even after a painful breakup. There are still many reasons for you to continue living, even if you have lost the love of your life. All you need to do is see things with a positive outlook. How to be Happy and Strong After a Breakup Here …
How do you know if enough is enough? When do you know it is time to end a relationship? These are probably the questions that bother you right now.
When the attraction and thrill stage of a relationship wanes, some couples struggle in keeping their commitment to each other. Some think they fell out of love, so they want to part ways. Others discovered their personality and principles don’t compliment their partner’s, so they question whether to keep their relationship going or not.
Ending your relationship without wise judgment might cause you to regret it in the future. To avoid this, here are 12 questions that you better ask yourself before jumping into a decision:
It takes a lot of time to build trust, but it takes a minute to destroy it. Since trust is a foundation of a strong relationship, without it there is no guarantee of staying together for a long time.
Has your partner ever cheated on you? This is the most common cause of broken trust between couples. However, some, despite being hurt, choose to forgive and forget what happened. When you love your partner so much, you decide to stay and try to work things out even if there are trust issues already.
Is it still worth it? Should you try rebuilding your trust in your partner? Or should you choose to move on? Here are 14 practical tips that you can try to find out if your relationship is still worth a second chance:
