Self help is a paramount subject for any woman. In the past, women issues were not something that counseling centers, books and universities seemed to be working.
Today, self esteem is a movement and a significant industry. Women in many countries are taking up new values, thanks to what they learned by reading self-improvement books. They change the values of their traditional cultures and are not obedient to their husbands. The globalization of equality of gender seems to be here to stay.
Women had no clue about why their problems were not something that was part of the titles of books. The reason is that only men held jobs. The economy and industry were male driven too.
These are things of the past, for today women can find plenty of books about self esteem and many other subjects. Women can talk about these themes in the open as men do. They can now grow spiritually because none of us is perfect.
Women now can identify problems and support one another easily. Marginalization and objectification are some of the women issues that advertising and media are addressing every day. They need the help of women who are where they want to be.
Oprah Winfrey is addressing this issue in her show. She is offering extremely useful self-help information for women.
Self Help Information for Women - Final words
Oprah does not allow women use a negative language towards men; instead, she focuses her attention on the solutions that women need to overcome their problems. She also raises awareness about many more issues and not just self esteem for women.
An extraordinary book is The Ego and Mechanisms of Defense. Its author is Anna Freud, the daughter of Dr. Sigmund Freud. This book is one of the best that any woman may read.
... A HUGE PART OF BEING GOOD WITH WOMEN IS BEING SOCIALLY CONFIDENT. THE TWO GO HAND-IN-HAND. Social dud? Be a social stud--and attract women. DEAR VIN, EVERY TIME I GO OUT TO MEET WOMEN, I JUST GET REALLY AFRAID AND NERVOUS. IT'S LIKE I CAN'T EVEN WALK UP TO THEM AND SAY HI. I JUST FEEL LIKE NO ONE IS NOTICING ME, AND EVEN WHEN I DO START CONVERSATIONS, THEY JUST DON'T GO ANYWHERE OR IT'S REALLY AWKWARD. WHAT CAN I DO TO FIX THIS SITUATION? STEVE FROM AUSTRALIA Dear Steve, Without a doubt, the most common mistake I see guys make is wanting to learn seduction before having a grasp on their basic social skills. What I mean by this is that, too often, guys tend to want to learn about attraction and picking up girls and how to get them home before they improve their-what I consider to be fundamental-people skills. And that approach is totally backward. In order to gain confidence and skills with women, you first need to have good social skills. For guys like you Steve, my advice is to (FOR NOW) forget entirely about picking up women. Forget about trying to get them home or attracting them or even approaching them at any time or place. Before you can even think about any of that, you have to work on your fundamental social skills. Specifically, you have to be able to start conversation, make small talk, and talk to anyone-guys, girls, attractive people, unattractive people, etc. You need to spend the next six months overcoming shyness, getting rid of social anxiety, and building up your general confidence in various social situations. Start to get rid of any feelings of being self-conscious and not knowing what to say, and start to improve at things such as your general charisma, asking good questions, and talking to groups of people. Start by approaching people in grocery stores or shopping malls-just ask general questions or for advice. Practice getting any conversation going with different people in different places. Then increase this by approaching two people at the same time, then three, etc. By slowly practicing and increasing over six months, you will feel good through the process and, in the long run, you'll get results much faster with women. And a huge part of being good with women is being socially confident. The two go hand-in-hand. Think about it like this: If you wanted to compete in a triathlon for the first time, you wouldn't just show up on the day of the triathlon without having trained for it. If you did, you'd probably struggle like crazy, may not finish, and may not even complete it. When it comes to being good with women, your social skills are like the important fitness training you need to compete in a triathlon, like talking to people, being able to express yourself, and being able to influence people and persuade them. Essentially, you have to train yourself to be good with women, and this starts by exercising your social skills to build them up until you're ready for the triathlon.

Recently Massimo posted about Michael Shermer's misguided attempt to claim for science what traditionally - and rightfully - belongs to philosophy. It is another episode in a recently growing trend, as exemplified by Sam Harris' book-length treatment of the same matter in "The Moral Landscape". For anyone convinced that ethics is ultimately the proper domain of philosophical inquiry (though philosophical reasoning can and should be "informed" by our best science), it can be a very frustrating experience to have to continually combat this rising tide of incipient scientism.
But, of course, that doesn't mean we stand back and assume that the opposing viewpoint will ultimately exhaust itself. On the contrary, we should be "more" inclined to criticize positions that are becoming successful (i.e., popular); at the vey least responding to others sharpens our own way of thinking. In this sense, I must admit to a love/hate relationship with people like Sam Harris. Although I disagree with many of his positions, I have to admit that I admire his tenacity and his courage to stand alone and be criticized. And his popularity (or at least his controversial public persona) helps create the necessary conditions for a vigorous dialectic - and "that" is a good thing.
Harris' central premise, which is essentially the same premise shared by Shermer and others in that camp, is that questions of value can "at least in principle" be reduced to facts about the well-being of conscious creatures, and that these facts "and their interpretations" fall within the purview of science. Harris further maintains that the most relevant discipline here is neuroscience.
Back in August, 2012, "Philosophy Now" published an essay by philosophers Julian Savulescu and Ingmar Persson entitled "Moral Enhancement", where they essentially argue for a nascent program of eugenics, what they call the "biomedical means of moral enhancement," or "moral bioenhancement." Their reasoning is that the evolutionary course of the human species has left us ill-equipped to deal with specifically modern existential challenges like global climate change or warfare that may involve weapons of mass destruction, thus threatening to eradicate all sentient life on the planet. This echoes Sam Harris' motivation for writing "The Moral Landscape": "changing people's ethical commitments... is the most important task facing humanity in the twenty-first century."
But, just as with Harris' book, where he admits that concepts like "well-being" and "flourishing" are notoriously difficult to measure, Savulescu and Persson also acknowledge that "it is too early to predict how, or even if, any moral bioenhancement scheme will be achieved." What these authors do have in common is an unflagging confidence that science will be able to figure it out. I understand this feeling of confidence. In fact, I share this confidence concerning many if not most things science tackles. But ethics isn't one of them.
I think that moral reasoning and the related dialectical activity is the most important thing we can do in life. I believe this not only because of obvious existential threats we face, but because knowing "how to live and what to do," to paraphrase the late poet Wallace Stevens, seems to be the most indispensable and perhaps even the oldest need of our species - going back possibly to the earliest emergence of self-consciousness in our evolutionary lineage. I mean, so far as we know, other animals don't experience ethics (broadly conceived) as a "problem"; every aspect of their existence is determined or ordered by instinctual behavioral patterns. Obtaining sustenance, finding mates, avoiding dangers: these aren't problems for them in the way ethics is a problem for "us". We still face the same issues, of course, but our nature as social creatures and more critically our capacity for "knowing that we know" (and knowing we have the ability to choose between alternatives based on reflection), creates the possibility for "doubt" about which course of action is best, whether it's deciding which personality type would ensure the best marriage or which hobby or career would give the most satisfaction in life. We humans do more than wonder which action is the most "utilitarian" (lowercase "u"); it's also about which action is the most "rewarding".
Despite Harris' confidence in his moral realism, there is a streak of relativisn in his own approach as articulated in T"he Moral Landscape". In my own annotated copy of his book, I've marked six significant concessions to the variability of the concept of "well-being." Most tellingly, when comparing moral well-being to the notion of physical well-being (i.e., health), he says that science "cannot tell us why, "scientifically", we should value health." Of course, Harris doesn't see this as a knock-down punch to his general project; he goes on to say that "once we admit that health is the proper concern of medicine, we can then study and promote it through science." Yes, that's true; but the key words here are "study" and "promote." Just think about the voluminous yet conflicting scientific pronouncements on health from sites like Medical Xpress: one week there's a report that "coffee will make you live forever!", and the next week they report that "coffee kills you faster!" (Full disclosure: I truly believe coffee will allow me to live forever. Of course, my cognitive apparatus may be compromised by addiction in this case.) Reading any of these medical news aggregation sites illustrates perfectly the amorphous nature of "well-being," whether physiological or psychological.
And as a professional dog trainer, I have to ask: whatever happened to good old operant conditioning, the discovery that a system of naturally-occurring rewards and punishments determine and shape behavior? The principles of operant conditioning apply to all animals, humans included. There are four basic "quadrants" delineated by this concept: 1) positive reinforcement; 2) negative reinforcement; 3) positive punishment; and 4) negative punishment.
Positive reinforcement is the idea that when a subject receives a reward for doing a particular action, then that subject is likely to perform that action with more frequency and more vigor in the future, and it results in "lasting" behavior modification in most cases. A classic example of this is the pigeon in the lab pressing a lever and receiving a pellet of food every time it does; the bird will peck the crap out of that thing!
Negative reinforcement, on the other hand, is the idea that "removing" an aversive stimulus will increase the frequency and vigor of a desired response. As an example, think of that godawful buzzing noise you hear if you don't buckle your seatbelt when driving.
Positive punishment is by far humanity's favorite method of behavior modification (despite its inadequacy), and it entails "introducing" an aversive stimulus in order to decrease the frequency of an undesirable behavior. I hardly need to cite an example, but think of smacking someone's hand when they reach for the cookie jar.
Negative punishment, on the other hand, is the removal of a desired stimulus or reward in order to decrease an undesirable behavior. Think of taking away your teenager's video game privileges because he's been bullying his sister.
The unique and most fantastic consequence of discovering these principles is that we are in a position to intentionally manipulate and exploit them, whether with other animals (consider the history of animal domestication for human benefit) or with our fellow human beings. We don't have to simply rely on naturally-occurring environmental circumstances to trigger a behavior that we "hope" will happen. We all use these four quadrants in varying degrees every day, without really being aware of what we're doing (or why), and without the sense that if we apply a little sophistication to our approach, we may be able to make more effective use of them.
Of course, I think there is a bit of difference between changing "behavior" and changing "beliefs"; but if behavior flows from belief, then the principles of operant conditioning should be able to accomplish what we desire from moral philosophy, assuming we're assiduous enough and creative enough to apply them properly. If we can succeed in changing behavior for the better, do we need to change beliefs? If we can succeed in indefinitely deterring Iran from using nuclear weapons against Israel or us, do we need to change their belief that we're the Devil Incarnate?
I think those in Harris' camp believe that "science" - particularly neuroscience, but possibly even evolutionary psychology and the like - is a powerful shortcut to the type of behavior modification we're all seeking. Harris contrasts the type of "science of morality" that psychologists like Jonathan Haidt and Joshua Greene do with the kind Harris envisions. He believes that theirs is important but ultimately insufficient. I also believe that the work of those like Haidt and Greene is important; but I think that it's up to philosophers to be aware of and utilize the findings from "this" science of morality in their moral reasoning.
Interestingly, there was an article entitled "The Folly of Scientism" in "The New Atlantis" by biologist Austin L. Hughes, who takes Harris and others to task. Hughes blames in part the discipline of philosophy for abdicating its prerogative with regard to some intellectual matters, allowing the louder voices of the hard sciences to take over discourse on things like "values" and such. I'm not a part of academia, but based on published books, essays and blogs by philosophers, I don't think Hughes is correct here. It seems more likely that scientists have simply become emboldened by and enamored of the success of their respective disciplines, and are thus riding that wave onto the shores of philosophical discourse, where they come crashing impudently down.
Unlike the dispute between religion and science, where most people believe the two approaches have nothing to say to each other, and where Stephen J. Gould famously sought to establish an ideological Switzerland with his notion of N.O.M.A. (Non-Overlapping MagisteriA), philosophy and science "do" overlap; and I believe the best course forward is to maintain and "enhance" the dialogue currently taking place between philosophers and scientists. Having prominent (or at least popular) thinkers like Shermer and Harris and others stake out their positions with verve, and having others muster an equally vigorous critique of their positions carries on the ancient Greek tradition of the "agon", a good way of getting clear on how to solve the problems of our age.
Harris and others seem to be desperately seeking a way out of this intellectual morass we call moral philosophy. But why should we expect it to be anything "but" a morass? Why should we expect definitive or clear-cut answers to ethical questions? Instead of trying to settle once and for all the questions upon which humankind has meditated since time immemorial, we should strive for the best "approximation" to sensible answers, which will of necessity be moving targets (at a minimum, insuring job security for philosophers!).
A "science of morality" should result from the best efforts of philosophers, psychologists, neuroscientists, sociologists - and even economists - working in the most open, mutually-beneficial manner possible. I think that is what is actually shaping now, despite a growing tidal swell of scientistic sentiment coming from some skeptical quarters. And scientism needs to be countered both because it's intellectually misguided and because it engenders endless misconceptions about science in the public at large.
Shermer's piece was a response to John Brockman's annual question, "What should we be worried about?" In my opinion, we should be worried about the usurpation of philosophy by scientists.
"Give by "Barbara Anastacio"
Time was FilmLinc to start with asked to sit down with New York Wash down Festivity director Kent Jones, the goal was to look back at the fest's 52nd arise. And the same as that actually came up, the conversation evolved into no matter which remote bulky. NYFF twisted a obstinate for topics ranging from how he approaches interviews with personalities like David Fincher and Kristen Stewart, progressive (and not-so-recent) capture on film history, and the habitual question of "themes" that tie films together in a squad.
Jones has devotedly said that at the same time as programming the NYFF, he and the well-chosen appointment all right troop films regardless of how they may or may not correlate to each far-flung. Now in retrospect, he sees some consistencies as well as, conceivably, a destiny or two. In Wing 1 of the try-out, Jones likewise delves into the sometimes marshy topic of the intersection of art and occupational.
"FilmLinc: In deliberation, what confine been some of your lovely moments of this year's New York Wash down Festival?"
Kent Jones: I'm intensely happy with the mix of films in the festival. I'm intensely happy with the feeling of the festival. I'm intensely happy with the fact that we're playing lobby music. I assumption the people in the booth could not be as happy, being I'm getting them the music like 10 seconds otherwise. You alert, I think it's passionate. I like that.
For me separately... Olivier Assayas and I confine freely available each far-flung for 20 sparkle now. We thoroughly met in the vicinity of at the capture on film festival at the same time as he was show "Off the cuff Pond". "Off the cuff Pond "was reach by Denis Lenoir, who likewise reach [Mia Hansen-Love's] "Eden". [Both are] films about mope that confine a strong music component-or based in love of music, love of art. And Mia is Olivier's partner in life. It's neutralize to see all that.
And it's nice to see audiences. Ron, the conquered from Debra Granik's doc "Rove Dogs" came with his stepsons who are likewise part of the feature. It was a capture on film that people were bowled over by. Seeing him acquaint with and having a back and forth [later than the presentation] destined a lot to people, and it destined a lot to him as well. Vastly place with Seymour Bernstein in Ethan Hawke's "Seymour: An Unveiling". Fill with are gear I may perhaps point to.
"FL: I've seen you customarily at the festival leading panels and thought on stage. How do you go about getting artists and performers to open up about their work?"
KJ: You alert, anyone is eccentric. Everyone's mind works differently. Whichever individual's come back with to being in public is eccentric in how they approach discussing their work. People [distribute messages] with their connection and body language as well as hesitations and articulations. So that's a human place. As a result acquaint with are people that I alert intensely well, like Olivier or Paul, Fincher. They're eccentric in the judiciousness that we already alert each far-flung well.
But Kristen Stewart and I had never met and she did the press high-level meeting [for Assayas's "Smoke of Sils Maria"]. She was not just speak but convincing and excited by the idea of talking about the making of the feature. The feature is intensely very particular to her. She doesn't confine the fluke to work that way with American filmmakers. And that was great.
[The far-flung night "Foxcatcher" director] Bennett Miller and I did a place corner to corner the street and Bennett takes his time thinking about gear. He closes his eyes the way Marty Scorsese does, thinking put on the right track his answers. It's a matter of listening. Time was it's a conversation amongst me and outfit moreover as two group who are alleged to let somebody have temporarily to a conference, that's one place. But at the same time as I'm interviewing outfit, what I say isn't that carrying great weight. It's a matter of listening.
"Give by "Adele Disgusting"
"FL: I alert you don't all right films input themes, and that "count" is a sort of bound to happen question. But acquaint with are so countless films, conceivably 10 or 13 this blind date, which deal with the intellectual method in some feelings. Did that topic come up at all inside the well-chosen process? Do you think something's in the air right now?"
KJ: You would confine to glib it. Since acquaint with are so countless films about the intellectual method after that conceivably there's no matter which in the air. I mean, NYFF takes a preferably small number of films compared to far-flung festivals. As we were goodbye put on the right track the well-chosen method it's not like these gear... sometimes they get nearer to us, but they're in all honesty tangential. It has minute allowance to do with the well-chosen method. And after that afterwards, you can look at it and say, "Fascinating." [For example,] "Smoke of Sils Maria "is about a middle-aged actor and "Birdman" is about a middle-aged performer.
"FL: They're both therapy with plays..."
KJ: Yeah, and the Joseph L. Mankiewicz conservative screened" The Barefoot Contessa" [1954]-that would ratchet gear up to 15. It's just the way that it works. Last blind date we had comedies, this blind date we essentially didn't. Our open presentation was a comedy [Noah Baumbach's "Period We're Juvenile"], and a intensely good one, but essentially they just weren't acquaint with.
Alike acquaint with was the fabulous flowing together of films by the occasion of doc filmmakers freely available for movie theater v'erit'e. Albert Maysles's "Iris", Frederick Wiseman's "Civilian Lanai", Les Blank's "How to Aroma a Rose: A Inhabit with Ricky Leacock in Normandy", and Ed Pincus's keep up capture on film, "One Cut, One Excitement".
We likewise had the two Flaherty films presentation in our revivals [sidebar], "Moana with Justifiable "and "A Evil of Storytelling". Flaherty statistics extremely well in [Les Blank's] capture on film about Ricky Leacock being [Leacock] reach Flaherty's "Louisiana Mess about" [1948] and Leacock gave him a job at the same time as he was young, which was an brainstorm to people. Fill with films were [coincidentally] just acquaint with in the festival, so that's endlessly gripping. You can tell me about the themes just as remote as I can tell you.
"FL: That's gripping, being it seems as if the industry is in an dubious move or a stage of insecurity conceivably in part being of shifts in section and financing. At hand are likewise questions of equality and representation with sundry groups in relation to Hollywood in careful... Is the broader topic of introspection symptomatic of better seismic shifts that are on the minds of filmmakers? "
KJ: Intentionally, I mean. Contest representation...
"Give by "Silvia Saponaro"
"FL: I don't want to over-emphasize..."
KJ: No, no, I mean that's an old one. It reminds me of two gear. One place is, [the far-flung night] at our on-stage conversation with [this year's NYFF] Supervisor in Area Lisandro Alonso, outfit said, "I'm from Cuba. We confine a hard time marketing our films. How do you think we must exit our films?"
Intentionally, you alert, what does that mean? Lisandro Alonso's a great filmmaker. So the question of marketing for him is in opposition to the point. Yes he has Viggo Mortensen in his feature, but that's the first time he's worked with [a freely available performer] and perchance the closing. For Lisandro, it's like, "I just make the films, you exit them." In all probability he would sustain an call in marketing his films. Some filmmakers do, like Shane Carruth, in the way that he handled "Upstream Blemish". Fincher takes a very, very active call in how his films are marketed. But far-flung people less so and Lisandro not intensely.
Time was you position the question like that, after that you're not talking about filmmaking anymore. You're not talking about this capture on film and you're not talking about this artist. You're just talking about marketing. "I made a feature so how do I exit it?" Intentionally, what does that mean? Since did your feature mean to you?
I'm saying this not to be unkind, but after that it is unkind. Newly being he made a feature doesn't mean that anybody has to like it.I don't want to single him out. That's a very improper kind of question. But of cascade, this is a real question and for people coming from a set down like Cuba, "marketing" presents its own difficulties. I'm not saying those don't frame. Even so, the question has no tiresome on Lisandro, his feature, or his identity as an artist.
Here's the second place. I heard Helen Mirren charitable an try-out on the radio, and the interviewer said to her, "You've habitually talked about the representation of women in capture on film." She said, "No, I haven't habitually talked about it. People confine habitually asked me about it. I endlessly give the extremely rejoinder and the rejoinder is: acquaint with will be an even representation of roles for women in films, and in the manner of the camera as well, at the same time as women confine bigger jobs in every far-flung corner, cubicle, and recess of society. As a result you'll see bigger."
"Give by S"ean Diserio"
The idea that the entertainment industry's representations of social problems must come first is a skeptical announcement to begin with. And the idea that positive representations [of careful social groups] will lead to positive luggage on society I separately think is garbage. Having been input Marty Scorsese for such a long time, [I'd see him] get all this crap like, "You're reflecting the essential in Italian-American teaching..." And he'd say, "Realize, this is what I grew up with. This is the way it was. These people frame. If you don't like it, you don't confine to see it. It's not a opinion on Italian-American teaching." I think that's of course the axiom.
That's not to say that acquaint with aren't films that don't cruelly enlarge stereotypes, and perpetuate them in order to unwind a viable suspense allot, or that don't insinuate sexist stereotypes. But you alert, acquaint with are all kinds of stereotypes. At hand are stereotypes that are sexist. At hand are stereotypes that are racist. At hand are likewise stereotypes that are just on fresh level... It's relatively simple. You don't need a degree in marketing to understand that.
In vocabulary of the question of insecurity, in section and financing, I would say that financing for obsessed films is endlessly untrustworthy. I think it endlessly has been and I think it endlessly will be. I alert that acquaint with are these moments people endlessly point to [as "blond ages"] like the '70s, and yes, that's true. At hand were a lot of films inside that time in the wake of "The Graduate" and "Entertaining Situation" that were inventively obsessed and transnational. No one can make a feature like "Chinatown" now. It may perhaps not lob. No one can make a feature like "Burning Bull" now. It just wouldn't lob.
It is likewise true that in the wake of the shortfall of "Heaven's Proceeds" and "Burning Bull", which were very fatty films at the time-they were dissatisfaction successes, but poster failures-things did change. At hand were films like "Orifice", "Recognition Wars", and "Enormous"...[but] to me "Ghostbusters "was the one that set the template.
Quentin Tarantino is a real artist, makes real films, and [likewise] wants to concern people. When you come right down to it, he doesn't confine it every way. He firewood to his arms, and I may not be the biggest fan of revenge as an ultimate count. But like a lot of people I feel that "Jackie Evil" is one of his best films, and one of the best films everybody has made in 20 or 30 sparkle. All the extremely, there's this paranormal that you can confine no matter which, that you can concern critics and audiences and make a lot of savings [at the extremely time].
On the far-flung give away, I assumption while the writers' bump acquaint with has been a degree bit of a sea change in what the big money's goodbye to not blame and what they're not goodbye to not blame. Greatest the success of the "Transformers" chain, while it's bigger of the extremely, announcing itself as bigger of the extremely, presenting itself as bigger of the extremely, and intensely being minute allowance but bigger of the same-all hats off to Michael Bay, and he would perhaps say as remote.

Hi all, just looking for opinions. I have recently been reading about abusive marriages, and I'm feeling unsure if my situation could be labeled as such or not. He doesn't fit the classic criteria (controlling, isolating me, etc), so I'll just rattle off this list of his behaviors and get opinions. His actions over the final two years of our 18-year marriage:1) He told me he didn't love me, then told me he did, then changed his mind and again told me he did not. Constant yes I do, not I don't. 2) He conducted a very intense EA with another woman, but wanted to be "honest" with me about it and not hide it. He felt this was the ethical, moral thing to do, rather than sneaking around. So he pretty much paraded the relationship in front of me, telling me how "intense" it was, how different she was from me, what great conversations they had, etc.3) He complained every time I hugged him. I was not doing it right, other people hugged ("melted with him") better than me, that he could feel my "barriers". Needless to say, hugging him became rather nightmarish.4) When I would initiate sex (which he said he wanted me to do more of), he would complain that I was acting "mechanical". He would demand "intense eye contact" during sex, which I tried to accommodate (albeit with some degree of discomfort), but when we were finished he'd say "That's not quite what I was looking for". Always a complaint, never a compliment or encouragement.5) He went on to have several PAs, after getting my permission. This after a year of being generally treated like crap by him, and finally giving in. I'd agree to anything at that point, just to get him to be nice to me again.6) Throughout the span of the marriage, he would have temper tantrums and blowups, raging around the house swearing. Never hit me or threw things, just yelled. Our daughter and I would retreat to the bedroom and avoid him.7) He complained constantly that I was not meeting his "needs". Not once did he ever ask me about mine.8) He complained about my basic personality - that I was too quiet, that I read too many books instead of feeling and experiencing life, that I didn't have a strong personality, that I was boring, that he wanted me to change. (Yes, he really did say these things to me).The effect on me:I was afraid of him - of his temper, of what he might say that would hurt my feelings.I became afraid of sex, and even hugging him, as I feared being criticized when done.A constant feeling of "walking on eggshells", that I had to be very careful in what I said and how I acted around him.Sleep disruptions, trouble eating due to upset stomach, crying jags.My greatest loves - reading and writing - withered and died. I had no energy for them while this was going on. A slow erosion of my self-esteem. Feeling very down on myself, depressed, unworthy, unlovable.BTW we are now seven months separated, so I did finally get out. Now working on rebuilding my life and my self-esteem. It's a work in progress. Almost feeling as if I have PTSD - some of the symptoms seem comparable.So I'm just looking for opinions/feedback. Was he emotionally and/or psychologically abusive, or was he just an "unskillful" guy, a bull in a china shop?Thanks all!

It turned out to be that the new dating method for most men became online dating. Seeking a match on the Internet, men usually prefer COUGAR DATING. According to the survey, they select all: those who never married or divorced, and of course cougars. It was found that about 70% of all applications online are MARRIED WOMEN. That is why there are so many cougar dating websites.
Usually married women or that have been divorced are looking for a distraction from their boring life. Registration for these women becomes free and more to that they got premium access to all the options of the cougar dating site. Among the most attractive qualities listed in the questionnaires, cougar dating websites offer all users to fill the gap in conservatism, education, openness and liberal choices.
When you start looking at the profiles of the cougars you can see that they are not some old hags that use online dating for fun. Women are looking for a partner even though that had many disappointments in the previous relationships. They are slender, in good shape and smiling. These women are not the types of women who are after your money, or asking you about your status, work and preferences.
True, there are women with exaggerated demands. But it is their right. Why not? COUGAR DATING WEBSITES offer some amazing features not only to the women but for men as well. Communication becomes available and relationships become reliable and promising. This is how modern women are looking for happiness these days. All people have the right for happiness so why not looking for that happiness on the internet?
As Christians, we are used to being different from those around us. We make different choices about how we spend the Sabbath, and how we prioritize our time. So it's no surprise that when it comes to Christian singles dating, our choices are different as well.
Since what a Christian is looking for in a dating relationship is usually different from what others are looking for, it can be difficult to find partners. The first challenge in Christian singles dating is finding the right person to date. There are some tips that can help.
Look at church for other singles. Ask around your congregation, and look in the area for other congregations that you could visit. Some may have single-specific activities you could attend.
This certainly doesn't mean you give up your own church, but you need to put yourself in places where you can get acquainted with others that share your beliefs. As one pastor said, you can't marry someone you never meet. So Christian singles dating is made easier if you attend events with other single Christians.
Another good way to meet others is to get involved in service. There are lots of organizations that serve. Some are connected to churches, but others are community organizations. You'll likely find others who share your values and are interested in Christian singles dating.
If the people you meet aren't single, they will likely have a Christian friend or relative who is also single. Networking is the way to get to know people. It works for dating as well as business.
Going online is another great way to meet other Christians. Using an online dating or personal ad service is a quick way to meet other single Christians. There are sites specifically set up for Christians that are easy to use.
When dating Christians, it's important to let them know the kind of relationship you are seeking. Many single Christians want to find a life marriage partner. If you are not interested in that kind of relationship, it's best to say so upfront. It will save hurt feelings later.
Dating is the place to practice good relationship skills. It's important to look for the best in a partner. Learn to compliment sincerely and overlook minor difficulties.
However, dating is also the time to discover exactly what you want in a partner. You may discover your partner has different values and commitments. It is good to identify those during the dating process and decide if they are differences you want to live with long term.
Christians should set limits on physical contact. If you set limits up front, then you'll find you don't have the physical desires cloud your emotions and lead you to poor decisions you'll both regret.
Simple rules include staying out of bedrooms and always dating in public places where lots of other people are around.
Prayer and meditation are also important aspects to Christian singles dating. Ask about this person and ask if the relationship is on track so you can make great decisions about dating and life.
