Finally Lubrication Companies Start Helping With Foreplay

We have seen a recently move for companies to start changing up the normal lubrication we use for intimacy.  Long gone are the days when you had one or two choices.  Now you have a wealth of products to help build your excitement and foreplay.  K-Y has their line of Yours & Mine which offers a lube for male and female partners to experience their reactions together.  Durex has also chimed in with several different sensations in their lubrication.  There are many others out there doing the same thing telling us that there is a whole lot of foreplay going on out there.  Which is a very very good thing.  Check out all the different types of lubes on the market today and how they can alter your sensation for each intimate experience.  

Famous Kisses

There have been many famous kisses throughout history.  The one above in New York Time Square on VJ day is one that has been immortalized by Alfred Eisenstaedt.  Can you think of any others you have seen or witnessed?  The kiss that wakes Sleeping Beauty, the first time you kissed your partner, the kiss at your wedding or the first time kissed anyone.  What about the movies, when the Godfather would kiss someone good bye or even the episode of Seinfeld where Kramer kisses Jerry.  The point is kisses are memorable and the ones that stand out to you speak to your heart!

Laws That Hurt Your Relationship

Recently I was searching and cam across this silly fact.  In Colorado they had a law, and it still might be on the books,  that forbid a man from kissing a sleeping woman?  What kind of weirdo put the law in place.  I mean come on if you got up early for work you couldn't kiss your partner lightly goodbye.  What about that soft kiss when you come to bed and there is your beautiful partner sleeping.  I cannot imagine what person would dream up such a law at any time in history.

Think about what this law would have done to the simple story of Sleeping Beauty?  She would of never gotten woke up and if she did she would have only seen her Prince Charming being hauled of in handcuffs.

Maybe It's Time To Fix Up Those Single Friends, or Maybe Not?

Over 50% of all singles in America have not had a date in more than two years.

This is a very sad statistic.  I know there are some people out there that just don't want to date but so many of them would love to have a date.  Maybe it is time to fix up those two people you know that are single?  A word of caution here make sure they want to be fixed up, ask them before you make any moves.   If they both are okay with it then maybe you invite them both over to get acquainted.   Once you plant the seed let it grow on it's own don't over water it.  Let them continue if they wish without you having to hold their hands.  If there is something special there it will grow if not, so be it.  

Even if your friends don't want you to fix them up for a date you could still invite them over and spend time with them.  Invite them over to watch the game, or to enjoy the cookout your having.  Let them know they are special and a friend.  We all need love just some of us find it easier than others.  

Should Employers Question You About Your Relationship?

Approximately $6 billion in revenue is lost by American businesses as a result of decreased worker productivity linked to marriage hardship. Employees in a happy marriage, in contrast, tend to increase a company’s bottom line.^g


Knowing this information, should employers question you on how sound your marriage or relationship is before hiring you?  I am sure this would be considered unethical.  However I can see how a company would love to find people that have a wonderful marriage or relationship to hire.  You could also do this study to find dive deeper what about those that have a wonderful sex life, or those couples that laugh more often with each other.  These areas could affect the bottom line in a business as well.  As much as I know how important a healthy relationship is for us individually, I know new understanding of how our happy relationships benefit the entire world!

Love Shared Til The End

I stumbled across this photo on the internet and looking deep into the picture I see two people that obviously loved each other very deeply.  So much so that as the end approached for them they found comfort in each others arms.  I am not sure if they new that whatever happened was coming or if it was a surprise.  Which ever way the end came for these lovers the support was there.  

Many might look at this picture and think it was sad or that posting it was in bad taste.  I however see the beauty in that these two individuals must have found safety in staring into each others eyes for their final moments.  I see a love that must have been powerful and a love that was shared til the very last minute of their existence.  Together they left this world so that maybe together they would return.

Make Some Money As A Couple

Most couples could use a little extra money.  Wouldn't it be nice just to have extra cash to go out and eat on or take a vacation without dipping into your finances?  Problems however come in as you try to find time to do this.  Putting extra time into a part time job doesn't allow much time for your relationship to thrive.  Well what if the two of you find something you can do together to achieve this extra money?

There are countless numbers of things the two of you could work on together that are very simple.   Things such as having a garage sale, mowing the neighbors lawns, or doing simple repairs.  If you keep an eye on your local paper some people will pay for simple help and advertise in the paper.  Other things you could do would be create crafts, candles, or paintings to sale at local festivals.   Use you creative side and have fun together while you are doing this.  

You might even be able to find something using technology to achieve this extra money.  What ever you find if the two of you can enjoy doing it together that extra money will be even sweeter.

Give Your Partner The Bird

Okay we all know what the middle finger raised alone means.  Does that have to be an angry gesture?  Sure people use it for when they get cut off in traffic and when they want to express distaste for others.  However could the F**K YOU term attached to this gesture be a term of endearment for your lover.  Maybe you can flip the bird to your partner when you want them to f**k you and that isn't a bad thing in this case.  The two of you could turn this into a fun little way to express your desire for hot and passionate sex instead of the anger that is attached to this gesture normally.  Can you imagine your partner giving you this sign from across the room and while everyone else things they are mad at you, the two of you know that a fun time is in store for the two of you.
