Meaning Of Romance

         The meaning of the  Romance to me is building a commitment to someone. A couple that is wans to spend the rest of their lives together wanting and loving each other. It can be rather hard on some people because not everyone is the same. Everyone has different feelings for one another. I think Romance can be very stressful but at the same time it can help people make good decisions in their life just by having that someone. Romance is very useful at times and a pause for conscious reflection upon the real meaning of romance in intimate relationships. From the time we are young children, we listen to people talking about fairy tales of beautiful princesses being swept off their feet by charming princes who take them away to a better life so they can live ''happily ever after.'' 
       Their is so many ways romance can be there is intense, passionate and dramatic. People think in their hearts they have found their one true love and they will spend the rest of their lives with them. As we grow up, we hear this wonderful theme repeated endlessly in cartoons, movies, romance novels and hit songs. We grow very fond of this sweet tale, and can't wait until the day when Cupid's arrow hits its mark squarely in our hearts.
        And then it happens! We look into another's eyes and see something wonderful and mysterious that overtakes us. We feel a great joy that we have never felt before. It’s the greatest feeling anyone could ever feel. When we find our soul mate, our one true partner who will fulfill all our needs unconditionally, and our hearts and souls will dance and sing for all eternity. Do you think you found your soul mate? What does the word Romance mean to you? Do you think Romance applies to you?

Long Lasting Love

               Hey guys! It’s Danielle again! Last week I wrote to you about How to Love and this week I’m writing about Long Lasting Love. Long lasting love can be defined in so many ways. Over this past week or two, I found the guy that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. We dated back in 2007 and never broke up because of my parents were being so over protective with me and we just ended up not seeing each other.

Well not long after my parents lectured me about a million times me and that guy ended sneaking off again and seeing each other. Of course I got in trouble, but then after getting in trouble for the second time we decided to still be together and not see each other until I turned 18. Well now I’m almost 18 and the other day I was on my facebook and he sent me a friend request. I got so excited! I was so ecstatic! I told my cousin; she is like my best friend/ sister. She and I decided that maybe I should just get with him. The only problem with that is we can’t see each other until I’m 18.  L

After we messaged each other on facebook about a million times, he called me. It was a great feeling. He told me that he waited this long to talk to me what’s another 2 months and so many days. Then he can be with me. I told him “Yeah, your right!”  T o me that is long lasting love, waiting on someone all your life and still having the same feelings as you did before.  We always told each other that we would be together no matter what. I’m starting to believe him now! It’s a little strange because I thought he done forgot about me but I guess not. I think my feelings for him got stronger than before.

He made me realize that waiting on someone is really worth the trouble. We’ve been through a lot and that’s what makes our love for each other so strong. Reasons why I think he has been worth waiting on, because he’s not afraid to show his love and affection to me and he respects me and my family. If I had to choose anyone to be with I’d choose him. I think he is a great person, who loves me.

Ladies if you find a great guy keep him! Especially if they wait their whole life on you! What do you think about long lasting love? Is it real to you? Do you believe in it? Well I do! Thats why I'm going to be with him. :)

How To Love

              How to love? To love someone truly means that you love the person for who they are, as they were before, and exactly as they will be in the future. People will change all the time, but if you love someone so much, you will love them even if they become something you feud with. There is some many different ways of love someone. People love their children and their family is a type. There is also boyfriend/ girlfriend love. There is just so many ways to express your love.  http://theguide2.com/true-meaning-love/ 

 Some ways how to show love:

·         Buying flowers for the person

·         Sending a gift

·  Make a small box and in it put as many little paper hearts in it as you possibly can and one every little piece of paper write something special and then put it somewhere they can find and let them read one every time they get lonely.  http://iwant.on.ca/Purple/DoForLovedOnes.html     

·         Get a anti-fog stick and writing “I love you” on the bathroom mirror so when your loved one gets out of the shower the message will show up in the steam.

·         Spend at least 5-10 minutes with your loved one, when you first see each other just holding them and telling them how much you love them.

Some ways on how NOT to show love:

·         Being possessive

·         Jealousy

·         Lust

·         Fear

·         Keeping your partner away from their families

·         Spending all their money

·         Abusive. Physically, Mentally and Emotionally.

Not too long ago I experienced a really bad relationship where he took all my money and I never had anything to show for it. I wasn’t allowed to see either side of my family, we were always going to his and I had to pay for all the gas all the time. Which was really ridiculous?  In my opinion I must say there is not anything worse than having to buy love.  It was crazy. I regret every minute of the relationship.

Long Distance Relationships

                Long Distance Relationships

                                Hello everyone! Today I am writing, about long distance relationships. About 2 years ago I was on myspace and I started talking to this guy who I seemed to be interested in. Well after about 2 months of talking we decided to meet each other, he lived in Parkersburg, West Virginia and I lived in Athens, Ohio. So about an 1 hour and 1/2 of a drive up and the same back. It was crazy. After him coming down about 20 times a month for 2 months, he ended up asking me out. Of course I said "Yes". It was my first long distance relationship. We were dating for about a year and 1/2 then he went to the Army on July 4, 2011. It was very depressing and lonely. Nothing would keep my mind off of him. It was like he was constantly running through my head. I miss him more and more every day. Since we always did everything together such as swimming, going on long walks on the bike path, riding bicycles and going to the movies. We were always doing something together. He is the greatest person that has ever walked into my life. He is the most amazing person I know. He is very smart and intelligent person. He is wanting to start a life with me here soon within a month. I love him with all my heart and it doesn't matter how many miles away he is, I’ll always love him. He is very special to me. I would never want us to split up. On September 15th, 2011, I went to Fort Benning, Georgia to see him on his 56 hour family day pass. He graduated from basic September 16th, 2011. Now, he is in AIT training. I must say it's difficult him not being around and it tears me apart inside knowing that I’m here in Ohio and he is hundreds of miles away. It's very hard managing a long distance relationship but if you love a person so much you'll do anything. And I am that person willing to take that risk on doing anything. Only because he means the world to me and I would never let him down. I'm here to support him 100% of the way.

                                                    

So it depends how you react to a long distance relationship but here are some tips that could help time fly by if they are in the military:

1.       Talking to your partner on the phone.

2.       Talking to your partner on the internet regularly.

3.       Write your partner letters if possible. Let him/her know that you’re thinking about them.

4.       Explain your feelings in a letter. How, you feel about them and why?

5.       Be open about your feelings.

Just think about how many military families, girlfriends/ boyfriends, and friends are out there without their Soldier? In my opinion, there is too many.

                Just think we complain about how hot it is. We need to realize 1.) It isn't 109- 116 degress. 2.) We're not hundreds of miles away from home. 3.) We're not dressed in a full battle dressed uniform, helmet and carrying 70 pounds plus. 4.) There is a very little chance that anyone will shoot at us or that we might drive over a bomb on the road. But a Soldier does.  Special thanks to all the people who served or still serving our country! Stay Safe!

Romantic Idea's for Dates

                                                                    Romantic Ideas

              

                Some romantic ideas for couples would be going on long walks on the beach, while the sun is going down talking about when and how you to started dating, recreating the moments in detailed.  Your partner could also stare at the stars and looking into each other’s eyes, or go ice skating holding on to one another’s hand. Your partner could go out to a real nice fancy place and eat dinner. Your partner could also make a dinner for you and your partner.

 In the winter your partner could have a snowball fight or play in the snow by making snow angels or a snowman. If it’s too cold to be outside, your partner could go bowling or go to a movie theater and watch a romantic movie. Since its winter your partner could cuddle up on the couch or in the bed and keep each other warm.

In the summer your partner could go to the beach and go shell- hunting, talking about the things as a couple have in common. As a couple you could also go horseback riding in a big field or in a small town. Or go for a walk in the moonlit or talk about the stars. You and your partner could lie on a blanket under the sky and make shapes and imagines of the clouds. 

            You and your partner could go to a football game or a sports game. You too could talk about the how the game is going or talk about stories from each sport player, since most guys are into sports. You and your partner could play video games and relax. Most couples enjoy going to amusement parks, fairs, zoos or going on long walks. While enjoying how to plan a romantic date think about these questions:  Where to go? How to plan the event? What would you like to do and why? How to spend your free time with your partner?
