How to bring a girl home – Don’t use logic

I slam her ass against the car hood and Jam my mouth onto hers. Our tongues collide and she releases a whimper. Then I push her off and say, “Stop that!”

“What!? I didn’t do anything!” She replies.

“You know what you are doing. Come on, let’s go.”

It’s sitting pretty at just below freezing on New Years and there isn’t a cab in sight. I met my girl Blondie at a bar. One of many I frequent. She was wandering around with a giant grin on her face. I see them from a mile away—the ones that separate themselves from their friends, smile, play with their hair.


Make Luck Happen

I grabbed her arm and pulled her in saying, “Are you lost? You need a tour guide?” Five minutes later we are kissing, ten minutes later we are stroking each other’s junk. Sometimes you just get lucky. Sometimes you make luck happen.

Now its twenty minutes later and we’re going to my house. It’s cold, late, and a very long way home. “Are you sure there are no taxis? She pouts.”

“Hey don’t worry about a thing little girl!” I say sternly. Then I tickle her armpits and start a snowball fight. I let her win, and then grab her face and kiss deeply. Some strangers from across the street holler with approval. I give them a wave. We continue walking in the ankle deep snow.

“Baby, we’ve been lost in this storm for days, I don’t know if we will survive,” I say.

She laughs. “Yeah honey, I hope we make it ok.”

I grab her hand and whisper, “If I die…you can eat me.”

The snow is coming down a little harder and I’m starting to worry. That’s when I notice the glowing sign of hope. A pub! “Of course!” I yelp. “Alcohol is required!”

Always keep moving

I take her into the pub and order strong beverages. We warm ourselves on the nectar. A random douche attempts feebly to steal my prize with a lame comment, but I put my tongue in Blondie’s mouth and he wanders off defeated by superior game. Under the table she is squeezing my honker. Recharged…we head back into the cold night.

I continue to play fantasy games. First we are being chased by Nazi’s, then by a rapist dressed as Santa Claus, but the games always involve haste, and the prize of a warm rum and hot chocolate and pillowy soft blankets. She’s a trooper and has ceased all whining.

Finally, forty five minutes later, we arrive at my apartment. We sneak up the stairs and past my roommates’ bedrooms, into my den of joy. “This is my den of joy,” I say, and she laughs. Without the slightest provocation she strips off her clothes and jumps on my bed. Five minutes later I am in her mouth. It is one of the worst blow jobs of my life, all toothy and nasty. I pull out and scold her.

Lead the way

I flip her over and have my way. And she is very appreciative. I tell her she is a trooper for making such a dangerous trek in the snow. I sleep comfortably beside a beautiful girl I met only hours earlier. I wonder if it’s me, or if she arranged this whole situation. I quit thinking and sleep.

If you want to bring her home–realize that logic is not your friend. It’s much more critical to make the trip an adventure, a playful time with no expectations, no pressures. Keep her horny and in high spirits. Use the time to work her into a frenzy of expectation. Challenge her to be her best, most creative and sexy self, all the way home. Make her earn the right to be pleasured by you.

How To Rock Flirty Fake Lashes This Halloween


Whether you’re dressing up for Halloween or not, we highly recommend popping on a pair of false lashes to complete your weekend look. They instantly up your sexy factor in a way that just mascara can’t. Plus, with the right technique, they’re surprisingly easy to apply. Check out 9 other beauty tricks you need to know.

Whether you want to enhance your eyes with a set of classic black falsies or want to experiment with a feathery pink pair for the holiday, Make Up For Ever makeup artist Erin McCarthy shares the most goof-proof way to wear them so they’ll last all night long.

1. Curl your natural lashes and swipe them with mascara.

2. Take the lash strip in your hand and bend it a few times—the more flexible it is, the better it will conform to the shape of your eye, making it less likely to pop off your lids.

3. Then, using a hard stick like a Q-Tip wand or the blunt end of a makeup brush, swipe lash glue onto the lash band. Wait until the glue is tacky and almost completely dry before you apply the lashes — the glue is stronger and more adhesive that way. When it’s wet, it will be too slippery and your lashes will slide off.

Flirting Tips for First Encounters: For Women

t doesn’t matter if you are at a local nightclub or in the grocery store, don’t take a chance of missing a first encounter with a man because you are unsure of how to start flirting. A few tips for making contact and flirting can eventually lead to a date. Consider the first attempts at flirting as practice. It may take a little time to get comfortable and even longer to get results, so don’t give up…eventually the odds will be in your favor!
Before beginning flirting in any location, identify the person of choice as actually single and available for a flirting session. Obviously if there is a ring STAY AWAY! Don’t add unnecessary drama to your life. Some conversation starters that will determine availability and possible interest:
If at a store look in their cart and if there’s no “girl stuff”-say “remember to get something for your wife/girlfriend.”
For a man sitting at the bar alone say, “you must be a great guy for your girlfriend/wife to trust you going out without her.”
In a store if a man is looking at an item of interest, like a pan-“do you and your girlfriend/wife like to cook together?”
Based on the answer, you will be able to determine if a man is available or not. Of course there are those men who are not honest about being single so be alert! Even if you aren’t ready to start flirting, look around and think of other conversations starters that could determine if a man is single and flirting can begin; for when you are ready.
The difference between casual conversation and flirting isn’t in the words as much as it is in the tone, the eye contact, occasional touching of the arm, and intensity of interest. Lots of eye contact is a strong indication of interest.
Flirting tips for first encounters in a grocery store:
Before you even leave the house, check your appearance. Don’t over do the make-up. Your hair should be clean and neat. Put it in a ponytail if it is unruly. If you spend too much time on your looks to go to the store, you could appear high maintenance. Smell clean but not over-perfumed.
When you find someone who is probably single, look for something in his cart to start talking about. Be genuine. If you end up on a date, you don’t want to him have a false idea of your interests. Then find something about his appearance to compliment him on.
If it is busy try to head towards the checkout around the same time to have more time to talk while standing in line together.
Flirting tips for first encounters in a bar:
Take the time to look good before you go out. Take the time to put on make up, do your hair, and wear clothes that are flattering. It is really important to have fresh breath and some nice smelling perfume.
In a bar, it is acceptable to be a little closer while flirting than in a store. While talking, lean towards the person and smile a lot. With the noise of a bar, it is a good excuse to get close to hear a little better.
You want to avoid the typical and worn out pick up lines. It can be a good conversation starter to ask about the worse pick up lines he’s ever used or talk about the worse ones that you have heard.
Flirting tips for first encounters in a park:
Before heading out to play, walk, or workout in the park, be sure your clothes are clean and you are wearing enough deodorant. It will be hard to start a conversation if you smell bad or if you get a little sweaty!
If both of you have kids, compliments on the kids are great conversation starters. Be sincere, because if you are not, it will show. Show interest in his and his kids’ interests at the park.
There is a difference between sounding desperately lonely and hinting around at having some free time available. Before getting close to the time when one of you need to leave, give some warning, so there is time to get the courage up for him to ask you out. Men often still like to be traditional and be the one to ask the woman out, but they will want to feel pretty certain the answer will be “yes” before they ask. During the flirting, there should be several comments that will assure him you’d accept an invitation out.
If at any time that there is no longer interest in the person, be ready to stop the flirting and move to another area. It is awkward for both people when there is a date requested and it must be turned down.
Flirting should be fun and pressure free for both people involved, if it isn’t, you may be trying to hard.

50 Couples Halloween Costumes

Not sure what to be this Halloween? YourTango's pulled together 50 fun, original couples costumes. We're not the only ones who can come up with great couples costumes, so leave us a comment and tell us how you and your partner have dressed up together in the past, or what you're planning for this year.

Inspired By Pop Culture

1. Meat Dress & Butcher (a la Lady Gaga at the VMAs)
Butcher: White T-shirt, white pants, white apron with blood stains (use red food coloring or fake blood), meat cleaver (can be real, or for a safer option, one made out of cardboard and tin foil).
Meat Dress: Take a plain white cotton dress and use red markers to create a "meat pattern" a la this outfit. Wear a long white wig, a sparkly necklace and bracelet, and any other over-the-top, Gaga-esque accoutrements.

2. Eat, Pray, Love
Partner one (Eat): Chef's hat, apron and mixing spoon, or any food costume. For example, wear brown, carry Hershey kisses and be chocolate; wear green, carry a bag of arugula and be lettuce, etc. To be authentic to Elizabeth Gilbert's book, be a bowl of pasta by wearing a red shirt festooned with several yards of pale yellow yarn and balls of mixed brown and red yarn.
Partner two (Pray): Any costume with religious connotation—a priest (long black coat, white collar, cross, bible); a Franciscan monk (brown bathrobe, brown hood, rope around your waste, cross around your neck); or a sari with a bindi on your forehead to represent India (where the "Pray" portion of Eat, Pray, Love took place).
Both: Then, when someone asks you what you are, kiss and say, "We're Eat, Pray, Love."

3. Justin Bieber & Fan
Bieber: Unless she or he has anything like The Bieb's hair, the Bieber half of this couple must buy a Bieber hair wig, happily available at justinbieberwig.com. Pair that with a hoodie, jeans, some bling, big sneakers and a spot of fake blood around the temple where a bit of hair has been torn off by an adoring fan.
Fan: In addition to the costume's requisite lock of Bieber hair in hand, doll yourself up in fan-girl gear: a Bieber concert T-shirt, denim mini and an arm full of silly bandz.

4. House & Cuddy from House
House: A lab coat, cane and a perpetual scowl. Bonus: Limp and indiscriminately shout out obnoxious comments.
Cuddy: A skirt suit, high heels and cleavage.

5. Rachel Berry & Finn Hudson from Glee
Rachel: Borrow a cardigan from your grandmother's closet and pair it with a white shirt, a plaid skirt, black knee-high socks and a pair of loafers a la this outfit.
Finn: A red football jersey, jeans, and a firm conviction that a girl can get pregnant in a jacuzzi. 3 Things Glee Teaches Us About Love

Is This How All Men Orgasm?


As I mentioned recently, I've been reading Sabbath's Theater — a wonderful novel ... which is also wildly sexually explicit in some places, often in a way that made me pretty grossed out. It's about a serial adulterer and complete failure — a former puppeteer named Mickey Sabbath — who begins to have a nervous breakdown after his beloved mistress dies of cancer. Some of the suspense in the book hinges on the question of whether or not Sabbath will kill himself. For some people, I bet the fact that they are personally rooting for the arguably abhorrent narrator's downfall also creates tension.
Anyway.
At a certain point in the book, the favored mistress — a somewhat plump 52-year-old Croatian immigrant named Drenka who has plenty of paramours herself, in addition to Mickey and her husband — is describing to Sabbath, in vivid detail, the sexual relationship she is having with a young electrician who is new to town. She describes how, when they are having sex, he is like Mickey, in that he will say (as Drenka puts it): "'I don't want to come yet.' And then he says, 'Oh my God, I'm coming, I'm coming,' and then 'Ohhh. Ohh,' those big sounds he makes. And the relief, it's like they collapse almost."
I had to smile after reading that bit because it just seems so true to my experience: All men announce — in a way that sounds sort of childlike, sort of desperate, always very urgent, occasionally apologetic — when they are about to unleash themselves in you.
I always find this weirdly touching; it's a moment when men seem so vulnerable, and even kind of innocent. I always feel weirdly maternal in the moments after that, when they are spent and gasping for breath and physically weakened — like I just kind of want to pet them and tell them it's all right, take it easy.
Do I have some kind of point here? Or did I just want to talk about sex?
Well, maybe it's just that it strikes me as funny that when having an orgasm, every man is an everyman. There's surprisingly little variety.
Or do you disagree? Do Roth and I have it wrong? I mean, I know that when you settle into a more serious relationship, things change and you get to know another person's rhythms better. But I think, even then, it's fairly common that a man will let you know what's about to happen, almost as a way of making sure you're all right with his timing (or begging your forgiveness ahead of time if you're not).

Love Notes: The Scarcity Lure

Folks inform me that one of many issues that was most precious to them from my Soulmate Success Training program was learning about Dating Traps. So here’s one other one, the Shortage Trap.

The Scarcity Lure is one other on the Dating Traps that is straightforward to fall into and hard to get out of! However there’s hope! With a little bit consciousness and a few acutely aware effort you may stay out of all of the Dating Traps!

The Scarcity Lure operates on the premise that there’s a restricted supply of possible partners out there. This results in believing that you have to compromise and accept what you’ll be able to get. What number of times have you heard somebody say, “I’m not utterly glad with the best way issues are with Steve, but considering that at my age all the good ones are taken, I better simply grasp onto him.” Ouch! Who wants to be the opposite individual in that relationship? Or fill within the blank with every other circumstance, for instance, given what number of instances I’ve been married, since I’ve a child to boost, and so on…. it’s the perfect I may get. This kind of shortage thinking results in numerous unhappiness for each people. And that is one which we don’t typically reveal even to ourselves. So be honest this time, are you in a greater than nothing relationship? Are you falling into the Scarcity Entice? Be sincere, even if the reality hurts.

Generally individuals fall into the Shortage Entice even when they are not in a relationship. In actual fact that is the most common from of all. I ask, “So are you dating anyone right now?” “No not likely,” comes the reply, “I’ve just kind of given up looking. All the nice ones seem to be taken.” And there it is. Trapped!

The way in which out of the Scarcity Entice is to look at the facts, the actual facts. There are extra singles on the market at the moment than at any time in history! The inhabitants of the United States is slightly below 300 million people. Determine roughly half of these are men and half are girls, so divide in half. Take out 25%are youngsters and 40% are married and 10% who’re homosexual and you might be left with 37,500,000. Do you think that inside that many people there may be somebody for you? Certain! There are plenty of good individuals left!

The roots of the Scarcity Lure lie within the media and standard culture. The issue is that once we buy into this type of considering, we are likely to settle for somebody who just isn’t right for us. But here is the thing. You don’t have to settle to be in an amazing relationship!

And so long as you are busy settling, you’ll not be obtainable when the correct person does show up.

Ask yourself what you have to do to ensure that you don’t settle? Now this is the key. Clearly outline what you want as a way to be joyful and really feel loved. What are your absolute “Must Haves” and “Deal Breakers”? Trust that in case you apply your self you’re going to get what you really need in life. Perceive that you must be capable to say “no” to what you don’t want, so that you will be out there to say “sure” to what you do want. And perceive that finding the correct relationship takes time, so don’t get impatient. Be taught thus far to make mates and have fun first. Then after you’ve got taken my Soulmate Success Coaching program, you should use the knowledge you get there and your Personalised Relationship Plan that can assist you stability you head with your heart and discover your Soulmate!

Take A Fun Friendly Date Tomorrow Before They Date Someone Else


What is the reason behind online dating’s success? Is it not incredibly obvious? Consider the other options. You could try arranged marriage… maybe not. Do you like using those lame lines at bars? Besides, you can have a lot of thrills with bar dating. Perhaps you are past the age where bars are really all that appropriate.

What about waiting on your best friend to fix you up with that special someone they know you just can’t live without? Do you really have that kind of time to wait? Besides, blind dates usually don’t have a happy ending. Church is often said to be the place to find that perfect person. I’m curious though…exactly how do you go about meeting someone in church? Do you try to silently fit in a conversation during the sermon without seeming rude to the preacher?

Or perhaps the work scene is more to your taste when shopping around. You know that’s a REALLY bad idea, right? Let’s face it, if the relationship goes sour, you still have to see that person on a daily basis – no getting away from that one!

These scenarios are just a few of the reasons that you should give online dating a try. Not to mention the fact that it’s the main scene for most everyone these days. Dating online is the best short cut for cupid’s arrow! Roughly 37 million people come looking for love online on a monthly basis. Can you imagine 37 million prospects!? Aside from the whopping number of love seekers, online dating sites allow you to pick and choose through a variety of criteria, such as the color of eyes or hair. If you don’t like pets, you can pass by the ones with furry companions. Say you want to meet someone from North Carolina, then you can search only in North Carolina! With so many people utilizing online dating sites, you maximize your odds. Surely out of 37 million love seekers, someone should fit the bill as your potential significant other.

You will not have to sniff out people’s intentions when you meet them; you will know right away exactly what they are after and you can then proceed. You will know that they want to find someone as well.

Types of yoga


Shoulderstand is all about alignment, alignment, alignment. Sure, you could say that about any yoga pose (and I do), but it's particularly important here since incorrect alignment can put too much pressure on your neck. In my opinion, using a blanket under the shoulders but with the head and neck off the blanket is essential. I often see students in shoulderstand with their legs too far forward, in almost a pike instead of perpendicular to the floor. This can be hard to judge at first, so have a friend or teacher adjust your legs to the correct position so you can get a feel for it.

How to Make Love Last


In June, during the first warm days of summer, we behold the most popular month to get married, while in the frosty winter month of January, we witness the most divorces. Throughout the wedding season, many of us are filled with feelings of optimism and hope for lasting romance. Yet, weather aside, by the time a colder season sets in, many people are left asking themselves what causes a marriage (or any serious relationship for that matter) to turn icy and warm feelings of love to freeze over.

Often, when a couple comes to therapy dissatisfied with or worried about their relationship, there are certain patterns that can be observed. A shift has often taken place within the couple that has left them estranged from their early feelings of tenderness and attraction. This shift involves a slow movement away from the romance and closeness they originally experienced toward a more routine and conventional style of relating. The initial allure or desire that drew them together and allowed them to appreciate one another for their unique qualities and attributes has been replaced by an illusion of connection, or what psychologist Robert Firestone refers to as the "Fantasy Bond.

The fantasy bond is a mode of relating in which couples interact in a manner of form that enables them to imagine that they are close while maintaining emotional distance. Individuals in these realtionships are acting on an unconscious fear of intimacy that influences them to not be vulnerable to their partners. Couples in a fantasy bond are often impersonal, treating one another as though they are extensions of themselves. Within this imagined connection, people no longer exhibit the attributes that once drew them to their partners. Eventually, they are no longer the independent individuals who once respected and admired each other. They are acting on old, destructive defenses that keep them at an emotional distance, even as they share the same activities, responsibilities or beds.

So what formulates a fantasy bond? How does it interfere with real feelings of love and affection for a partner? How can people escape the trap of this relationship hazard? To see if a relationship has taken the form of a fantasy bond, it is helpful to ask certain questions about the ways a couple relates.

You can start by looking at how the two partners communicate. You can ask: Can you speak honestly to your partner? And how honestly do you allow them to speak to you? When you offer feedback, is your partner open or closed to your opinions and perceptions? How open are you to their communication? Do you intimidate them by acting defensive? Or silence them by using their words to be victimized, overly apologetic or self-hating?

It is important to understand that being truly honest does not mean relaying and acting on irrational, negative or excessively critical reactions toward a partner. Rather, honesty means that each member of the couple knows their self and what's really going on with them personally. When a person is upset or angry, it is valuable to consider: Does this reaction reflect how they really feel or is it more based on negative programming from their past? Is it based on what is going on in the here and now or on old emotions that have been triggered? By thinking about their reactions, people can weed out the rational from the irrational, separate the present from the past, and distinguish the real from the distorted.

When a person approaches their partner from a realistic perspective they are more likely to have a compassionate and accurate view of their loved one and to be less phony or destructive in their style of relating. They care if their behavior or reactions hurt their partner in any way. They are also interested in and curious about any feedback their partner would have for them.

It is also advisable to investigate how a couple behaves. This can be challenging because people who have substituted a fantasy bond for real relating often fail to notice the ways they have begun acting out of habit. It is helpful to ask: in what ways has a person's behavior with their mate become routine? What loving behaviors are they withholding? What are the activities that they once enjoyed that they have given up since becoming involved in a relationship?

As a relationship becomes more serious, it is advisable to ask the following questions: Has this couple come to rely on each other to make up for any inadequacies in the other one; are they using each other to complete themselves? Is each one maintaining their independence and individuality or is either succumbing to just going along with activities that the other one is interested in? Are they being supportive of each other's interests and individuality, or are they, more often than not, doing things together out of obligation?

Most important, does what is being said within the couple correspond with what is being done? Honesty and integrity are crucial to long lasting relationships. When a person's words don't match their actions, their partner's sense of reality is distorted. In that sense, what is done matters much more than what is said. The perfect example of this is the couple who incessantly argues with or complains about each other but then continually say "I love you" in spite of the tension and anger that comes across in their behavior. When both members of a couple make their words and actions an honest reflection of how they feel, a real sense of trust is established in their relationship.

A good rule for staying together is to live a fulfilling life as an individual and to support your partner in doing the same. A union based on equality and respect is the perfect environment for love, romance and spontaneity to flourish, while a connection based on neediness and dependence creates an atmosphere of suppression, resentment and defensiveness. It is the difference between expressing genuine love and living an illusion of love, between creating a new life by continuing to develop your ability to love and recreating an old life by reliving past hurts, between accepting warmth and acting cold... and sometimes e

New Mineral Make-Up Turns Cosmetics World on its Head


A California cosmetic company has introduced a breakthrough in mineral makeup. Formulated with natural, finely ground minerals and powerful peptides, this new high-performance makeup created by RAW Natural Minerals provides flawless coverage while actually improving the condition of skin over time.

Makeup with a purpose

Founder Christina Marcaccini, who has been featured in Lucky, W, and SELF Magazine, created RAWMinerals to fill a gap in the cosmetics market. She aimed to formulate a line that delivered beautiful color and youthful radiance while refining skin's texture, smoothing fine lines and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

RAW Natural Minerals has proven to be a highly-effective makeup with major skincare benefits. In an independent, 6-week clinical study of RAW Natural Minerals,

80% said their skin appeared more luminous
79% said their skin appeared healthier and renewed
74% saw improvement in lines and wrinkles within the first 5 minutes of application
74% experienced an improvement in skin moisture
71% said their skin appeared clearer
The key to younger-looking skin

The key to RAW Natural Minerals' advanced performance is VitaFirm Complex. Rich in natural botanical peptides that have been proven to dramatically minimize the signs of aging, this innovative complex helps protect collagen to keep skin firm and tight. Pure plant extracts combine with these peptides to fill in facial lines, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and absorb excess oils.

According to the company, VitaFirm's moisture-boosting ingredients also give RAW Natural Minerals a distinct advantage over liquid makeup and powders. The lightweight minerals work to improve skin's elasticity and boost radiance with an ultra-hydrating texture that won't cake, crease or dry skin out.

The solution for all skin types and tones

RAW Natural Minerals' natural, botanically-infused formula makes it ideal for all skin types. Mineral makeup is recommended by dermatologists for people with sensitive skin, rosacea and acne because the ultra-fine powders allow skin to breath and won't clog pores. Many users say that RAW Natural Minerals is the first makeup to ever improve the condition of their skin.

Unlike some brands, RAW Natural Minerals comes with a shade match guarantee, delivering seamless coverage to all skin tones. The company's website features an easy-to-use color-matching system that makes choosing the right shade simple.

Sex up the missionary position


pening your mind and second, by following a few of our super sexy tips. Oh, and you will probably have to undo your pants as well!

So, if The Missionary is your favourite sex position, try these simple steps to enhance the pleasure.
Raise your legs

Get your legs over your guy's shoulders. Remember, the higher you lift your legs, the deeper the penetration. So, in order to make it more pleasurable for you, get your legs over his shoulders instead of the usual around-his-body position.
Use a pillow

A pillow under your bum will alter the angle at which your guy is penetrating you, making it a new and enjoyable experience. Also, it’s good if you’re lazy because you won’t be able to move much. He’ll end up doing most of the work and you can lie back and enjoy.
Stay face-to-face

The main reason a woman prefers the missionary sex position is because she feels connected and emotionally closer to her partner as she can see him face-to-face.

THE CORRECT WAY TO APPLY THE BLUSH MAKEUP


Mineral pigments can give your skin a healthy glow that looks natural and, unlike traditional makeup, adheres to your skin all day without the need for touch ups, even if you perspire or go in the water. Mineral makeup blushers are used primarily to give the cheeks color, whereas mineral bronzers can be applied anywhere on the face and body that would normally develop color from being in the sun.

Steps for Applying Mineral Makeup Blushes and Bronzers
Step 1: If Your Skin Is Dry, Use Moisturizer before Applying Mineral Makeup - Minerals will best adhere to skin that is well moisturized. Whether starting with a base foundation or merely using blush or bronzer to enhance the tone of your skin, if you have dry skin, apply lotion to your face and neck a few minutes before you begin applying the mineral makeup.

Step 2: Prepare Your Brush - Mineral blushes and bronzers come in powdered form and are best applied using a high-quality brush. Angled or flat top brushes both work well.

You don't want to use a lot of product, so carefully pour just a bit of mineral powder into the lid of your jar of blush or bronzer. Then swirl your brush in the lid. Make sure that the mineral powder adheres evenly to the brush, and then gently tap the brush on the edge of the lid to remove any excess.

It can take a few moments for the minerals to warm up and blend onto your skin, so be very careful not to over apply. Minerals are highly concentrated pure pigments, and a little bit goes a long way.

Step 3a: Applying Mineral Blush - After the blush is loaded onto the brush, buff the minerals into the apples of your cheeks using an out-and-up circular motion. Buffing the blush onto the skin with a repeated circular motion helps the pigment blend.

If you want a natural look, avoid applying blush all the way to the hairline or in the hollows of you cheeks. If you are not sure where to put your blush, just smile, and the apples of your cheeks, usually directly below the center of you eyes, will become more apparent.

Step 3b: Applying Mineral Bronzer - Bronzer can be applied either before or after blush. The order you choose for your makeup routine, should be based on what you personally prefer. Choose a bronzer that is just a few shades darker than your natural skin tone. And, remember that you only need a very tiny amount to start with. You can always add more bronzer later.

After the bronzer is properly loaded on the brush, so that it evenly adheres to the bristles (Step 2), apply it to the areas of your face, or your body that would normally tan when exposed to sun-your cheeks, forehead, nose, chin, shoulders, even a little on your ears (ears usually get quite tanned, but are often missed when people apply mineral bronzers).

Use a repeated swirling motion to smoothly blend and set the mineral bronzer. When your brush has just a little mineral left, and is just about ready to be reloaded, work from your face to your neck to help the color blend and look more natural.

Step 4: Double-check Your Application to Ensure That It Looks Natural - When you are done applying mineral blush and bronzer, your skin should still look like your skin, only better. The color should be evenly applied and blended so that it appears natural, not made-up. If you have applied too much mineral or applied it unevenly, don't worry.

Just take a clean cosmetic cotton square or puff and blot your face wherever you see excess product. Once you've removed the excess, resume buffing and blending with your brush until you have achieve the right look.

Looking for Love Online

Some people think that sending a picture is the solution, but according to Cyberflirts, "The most important thing to remember is that a single picture of a person may not tell the whole story. [] When you meet them in person and they could be completely different then what you pictured. You may feel let down and like you never really knew the person..."

When in doubt, ask your online suitor or love interest to send a recent photo. Or even better, ask them to install a webcam program so you can see what they look like live. It is amazing how much you can tell about a person, just by their gestures and eye movements.
The site asks if you would log on to the Internet if you knew it meant, "You would find true love. You would make wonderful new friends. You would discover a new addiction. You would lose every cent you ever saved. You would be stalked in ways you never imagined. You would be betrayed and deceived by strangers you called friends. It's not only possible! It's probable."

Safedating.com is full of first persons stories, sent in by women who were led down the garden path by con-men, married men and perverse persons they met in chat rooms and through message boards.

ERA, an Electronic Relationship Advice site, puts all this in a nutshell on their website, when they say, "most people are fascinated by the process ... their fascination is fueled by the same motive that makes people turn and look at dead animals on the road."

In other words, most people who are on the net are just curious, not serious when it comes to romance. On ERA, the uninitiated can find information about everything from cyber-cheaters (men who talk dirty to someone else beside you on the web), women who pretend to be a lot thinner than they are and men who lie about the size of their assets.

What about liars, cheaters, con men and long distance relationships? There are no statistics out on this either, but my suspicion is that your chances of meeting these on the web are not only similar but probably greater than meeting this kind of person in a bar.

I guess when it comes to human nature, you can change the medium, but you'll still get the same old messages.

Is He Still Interested?

Where the problems start however, is when one person in the relationship is still expecting this heightened level of new relationship interaction after a longer period of time. Your boyfriend doesn't think anything is wrong, because to him, what he`s doing is normal when he`s comfortable with someone. As well, he may be needing a bit more time to himself than previously to work out how he really feels about you. Eight months is a long time, and he`s probably wondering where things are going, just as you are. Problem is, he most likely needs some space from you to figure it out.

If still you think your boyfriend isn't interested, here's what I suggest you do:

Focus on yourself for a while. Don`t worry about what your boyfriend is doing, whether that's working a lot or playing video games nonstop. Think about the people and activities you've left by the wayside temporarily while the two of you were forging your relationship, and slowly start incorporating them back into your life.

Take a look at your relationship expectations during your time away from your partner. A quick review may show you that your needs have changed and a discussion is required with your partner. Alternatively, you may find that yes, your expectations have become unrealistic.

Don't call, email, or otherwise contact your boyfriend for a week. Give him some space and time. In fact, if you are able, don`t contact him until he makes contact with you, first. Fill your life and time with other things that aren't related to your boyfriend, and see just how long it takes him to miss you. If your relationship is going anywhere, he will call you soon enough, and the two of you can reconnect lovingly. If, however, he does not make contact within a predetermined amount of time (say, a month), you will know that the relationship is over.
