First Love... Do We Forget About It?


There are plenty of different stories about first love. And I'm sure and everyone has experienced this fantastic feeling. In some cases, first love can be the real one that lasts forever. For other people, first love is an unpleasant experience that brings nothing but sufferings.
In my case, it is only positive emotions. I still communicate with my "first love" and we are real friends. I'm glad that those romantic moments of my life are associated with happiness. And I can't imagine another situation. And the reason is quite obvious. My "first love" is a real friend for me now. He is like a member of my family, like my older brother.
For me first love is like a fairy tale that I will remember forever. And I'm happy that I was a part of that fairy tale…

Starting Your Own Business

Yesterday I met my friend Matthew whom I hadn't seen for ages. We spent more than 3 hours talking about different things.
Matthew told me about his life and I was really surprised. He had a business of his own... I can't imagine it. I always thought that Matthew wasn't a person who would be able to achieve something. However, time changes people.
And his dream to achieve good results in his business can come true. He strives to do his best to make his business flourishing. Though it's not an easy matter to run business, I'm sure that he will cope with it. He takes new steps to achieve good results. His next step is to get a business credit card. He is sure that it is one of the main components of successful business. He even explained this fact to me.
Having spoken with Matthew, I know much about starting business. Probably, I will think about it and start my own business...

Saying Sorry...


I'm sure that most of us can't admit that we are wrong. Very often it is really difficult to say that we are sorry. The fact is that some people think that apologizing is the same as admitting their guilt and imperfection. Others are sure that saying sorry is a kind of surrender. However, only those who beleive in themselves can apologize. And saying sorry is not so difficult as it may seem. There are several useful tips on how to learn to apologize.
First of all, don't be afraid of saying sorry. The more you say it, the more comfortable you feel.
And another tip is not to wait too long to say sorry. Mind that the longer you wait, the less your apology will mean for people.
However, people are different. Some people want to win an argument even at the cost of their friendship. Others are ready to lose an argument and mantain good relationships.
It can be really difficult to say sorry. However, we should learn to apologize.

Our Dreams… Will They Come True?

Do you have dreams? I'm sure you have… Everyone has certain dreams and he or she hopes that early or late these dreams come true.
Some people think that dreams are only dreams that will never come true. Such people only dream about something and do nothing to achieve their aims. At the same time other people believe that everything is possible and they do their best to achieve what they want. And their dreams are not an exception.
Walt Disney says that all our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them. And I agree with it. You see, our dreams will never come true if we just seat and do nothing. We should do our best to achieve what we want.
Our dreams are like our aims and we should take certain steps to achieve them. So, do your best and your dreams will come true.

Is It Possible to Stay Friends After the Split?

It goes without saying that parting can be the most difficult moment in people's life. And very often it is almost next to impossible to stay friends in this situation. Of course, everything depends on people.
Some people who are still in love with their ex-lovers can't stay friends with them. They say that it is difficult to see that their ex-boyfriends or girlfriends are happy with others.
On the other hand, a person who was an initiator of the parting can remain friends with his/her ex-lover. Though friendship after the breakup can offer temporary relief for people, it can prevent people from starting a new life.
However, many people after the split not only remain friends, they become a kind of relatives to each other. They help each other to solve different problems and endure hardships.
They say that friendship after the split is almost impossible. However, it's up to you to believe in it or not. Our life is unpredictable and very often we can't avoid the breakup. In this case it is very important to maintain good relationships with your ex-boyfriend or girlfriend and not to hurt him/her.

Having Pets...

Today having different pets is a kind of hobby for many people. There is no doubt that having pets have both advantages and disadvantages. In most cases pets make you patient, for instance, when your cat awakes you at 5 a.m. or your dog has chewed up your favorite boots. However, all these unpleasant situations don't prevent people from having pets. The fact is that many pet owners think that their favorite pets will give them more than they receive in the form of companionship and love.
At present it is rather popular to have various pets. Most pet owners treat their dogs or cats like members of their family and give them special birthday foods and presents.
However, taking card of pets is not so easy as it may seem at first sight. You will need lots of money for those things that you will need to take care of your pets. Depending on what pet you have, the supplies differ.
For instance, for your dog you will need special food for dogs, bowls for food and water, collar, etc. And, of course, you will need a lot of patience. They say that the more pets you have, the more difficult it is to take care of them.
It's true that there are people who don't like pets. But for the most people pets have become members of their families. And children who have different pets are kind and more patient.

Disadvantages of Searching for Love in the Internet

It's not a secret that today there are a lot of single people. Probably, their loneliness is one of the main reasons why they strive for finding their love. Usually, those people who have failed to find their love in real life look for other ways of finding suitable and reliable partners.
And one of the most popular ways is finding love in the Internet. But this way is not reliable. Are sure that looking for love in the Internet won't hit your wallet? You see, there are many situations when people suffer from different matchmaking services. As a rule, people visit different online dating sites after someone has recommended it. And these people think that at such sites they will be able to find a man/woman of their dream…
For instance, my cousin's friend Martin joined an online dating site and… met a woman of his dream. He was sure that it was so… They were ready to talk on the phone several times a day. And they did it. She was so attentive, she understood his feelings… But then she asked Martin for money and assured him that she would pay him back. And, of course, Martin couldn't refuse. As a result, he hasn't seen her and his money since that very day… Unfortunately such situations are not rare. Why does it happen? Maybe people want to believe others or they just want to be happy. And this happiness can cost them a lot.

Internet and Credit Cards

We can't deny the fact that today there are a lot of different things that make our life easier and more comfortable. And Internet is one of them...
Just imagine that today we can make purchases without leaving our home or office. All we have to do is to visit special sites where we can buy different things. And in such situation credit cards are of great help for us, as without them we won't be able to make these purchases. Credit cards are also those devices that make our life easier and more convenient. Today almost everyone uses plastics.
However, there are people who want to get a credit card but they are sure that they will spend a lot of time applying for it. And there is a wrong assumption. Fortunately, Internet helps us in this situation. There are a lot of websites where people can compare different plastics and fill out online credit card applications. Be sure that it won't take much time.
Nowadays people have an excellent chance to use different devices that make their life more convenient. Unfortunately, some people miss this chance, as they are afraid of using something new. And it can be their main mistake...

Ways of Solving Problems

Unfortunately, sometimes people can't avoid different quarrels in families. They say that such quarrels are quite natural, as people get accustomed to each other. And probably they are right, as people should tell each other what things annoy them.
However, quarrels differ from each other. Unfortunately, many people can't control their anger when they are annoyed and they shout and even fight with their spouses. Such quarrels can have awful consequences and can lead to divorce.
Those people who don't want to spoil relationships with their spouses use other ways to inform them about annoying things. For example, my friend Jessica prefers one of such methods. When she is disappointed with something and she doesn’t want to quarrel, she writes about everything in her blog. And her husband read it at work. When he comes home, they talk about the problem and solve.
As for me, I am against quarrels, as they bring nothing but troubles. At the same time we should tell about the things that annoy us. And the best way to solve our problems is to talk to each other.

Do Men Tell Lies to Their Wives?

It goes without saying that there are situations when people tell lies. And men are not an exception. Though some of them don't admit this fact, however, they have to lie in some situations. The fact is that it happens when either they don't want to hurt their wives. For instance, a man can lie when he tells his wife that the sweater she has bought for him is wonderful. Though, in reality it can be awful. Or when he explains to his wife that he is late because he has had an important meeting.
But lie can be of different types. Some men tell lies to avoid different conflicts with his wives and to get what they really wanted. Other men lie to spare their wives' feelings and they do their best not to hurt their wives.
In some situations, it is better to hear his lie than to hear the truth. Because the truth can hurt us and destroy our good relationships. I'm sure that no one would like to hear from her husband that the dinner is awful or that he is not satisfied with her clothes, etc. Though it doesn't mean that men are ready to leave us… But it is still difficult to realize that there is something in us that annoys our husbands.
So, it is better to lie in some cases not to hurt the feelings of others. So, think twice before deciding to lie or not.
