time for love

life is going so fast these days and most of us have so many commitments that it is even hard to find time to share love with our partner.  Like anything, the more time we invest in our relationships the more return we receive back from them.  This is of inestimable worth & value when our lives rush on towards the inevitable…… death!

too close for comfort?

how close is too close for comfort for you? We all have different requirements when it comes to how close we want to be to others. There is a cultural component to this, as different nationalities generally require different physical space between themselves & others.  Australians like myself have the biggest requirement for space between self & others, understandably as we are a small population in a very large country. The US follows Oz & also like to have lots of space between themselves & others physically. However when I moved to Europe years ago, I was struck at how much closer people are comfortable with others. Asia of course is similar as these areas in the world are where many people are located in smaller areas.

feeling comfortable with your partner?

When matchmaking, one of the major issues that needs to be addressed between two people is how comfortable they feel with each other. This is particularly crucial if the relationship may progress towards a live in setup. When sharing the same living space lack of comfort for either person can result in troubles within the relationship. When we are at home, we need to be able to feel comfortable and relaxed. It is a basic need and is the foundation for everything else in our lives. People have 4 basic different types of comfort needs and most of us would relate to one of these, at least generally.

left or right brain?

we all have different development as regards our brains and this can strongly affect how we relate and who we relate with.  It is helpful to understand & know our own leaning or orientation and what parts of the brain we may need to develop. It is often the undeveloped that we may be attracted to in others but it is important that we try to develop this so we can see all sides of the picture (or should I say brain?)
