This Goes To Every Woman Who Needs To Realize That He Doesn’t Deserve Her

By
Riley Cooper

When it comes to dating, I truly believe that when one relationship is healthy, strong, and happy, there’re no buts. I truly believe that when two individuals are genuinely and deeply in love with each other, they don’t question their partner’s feelings for them. They don’t wonder where their relationship is headed. They don’t wonder whether they’re meant to be together.

Are you wondering how I know this?

Well, I have to admit that I’ve had a couple of relationships which taught me some lessons about love. Yes, I’ve learned some valuable lessons about love and the world of modern dating the hard way. Why?

Because I was the kind of girl that used to give her heart, soul, and mind to men. Yes, that’s right. I used to wear my heart on my sleeve and fearlessly undress my soul in my relationships. I used to fight with every fiber of my being for those I loved from the bottom of my heart. And I also believed that people could change.

Call me naïve, immature, or stupid, but when I love someone, I love them deeply, intensely, selflessly, and unconditionally. That’s why I don’t regret being in these messy, failed relationships. Because no matter how difficult and painful experiences they were, they all taught me something – they taught me how I deserve to be treated. They taught me what kind of person deserves a place in my heart.

Therefore, this one is for every woman out there who needs to realize that he doesn’t deserve her. This one is for those that doubt their self-worth and don’t think they’re good enough. This one is for those that need to hear that he’s just not worth it.

Yes, he’s not worth your attention. Your support. Your affection. Your tears. Your effort.

Therefore, stop believing that he’ll change one day. Stop believing that if he understands how much you love and care about him, he’ll start looking at you in a different way and liking you more.

Because the truth is that some people don’t want to be changed or fixed– they consider themselves perfect the way they are.

Stop making excuses for his false promises, lame excuses, and lies. Stop tolerating and justifying his crappy behavior. He’s not worth it.

Stop allowing him to disappoint you every time you give him a new chance to make things right between you. Stop allowing him to play with your feelings and take you for granted.

Stop waiting for him to look at you the way you look at him – with eyes full of warmth and affection. Stop waiting for him to treat you the way you treat him – with kindness, compassion, respect, and dignity. Stop waiting for him to love you the way you love him – selflessly, wholeheartedly, and unconditionally.

Stop waiting for him to realize who you really are. Stop waiting for him to see your strength and qualities. Stop waiting for him to look beyond your outward beauty and see the beauty of your soul. Stop waiting for him to realize how worthy you are.

Stop allowing him to destroy your faith in love. Stop thinking that love always has to be hard, messy, and painful. Stop thinking that you’re not meant to be loved. Stop thinking that true love is something you can only dream of.

Stop letting him string you along. He’s not worth it. He doesn’t deserve you.

Yes, darling, you deserve to be with someone way better than him. You deserve someone who will never make you question his love for you and where you stand in his life. You deserve someone who will choose you every day and show you that you stand very high on his list of priorities.

You deserve someone who will treat you and love you the way you deserve. Someone who will always be there for you when you need him. Someone who will stick with you through thick and thin. Someone who will be willing to fight for you. Someone who will never make you doubt your worth.

You deserve someone who won’t have to lose you first so as to realize what an amazing person he’s had by his side.

 

Local Bus Driver Saw A Boy Standing In The Cold, Crying And This Is What He Did Next

By
Stephanie Reeds

A local bus driver in Washington is being praised for helping one of the students that usually ride on his bus. Why? Well, his amazing act of kindness touched the hearts of many people and gave them hope that there are good people in this world.

John Lunceford who is a U.S. Army veteran has been driving buses for Kennewick School District for over 6 years now.

One day, one of the boys who boarded on his bus was crying. When Jon looked at him, the boy was shaking from cold and his hands, ears, and nose were frozen and red. The little fella had been waiting for the bus for too long. He had been standing for two hours in the cold with nothing warm to put on his head or hands.

At that moment, Jon took off his hat, gloves, and scarf and hand them to the crying boy. He helped him find a warm spot on the bus and told him that everything is going to be ok.

But he didn’t stop right there. As soon as he dropped the students, he went to buy 10 pairs of gloves and 10 hats. After that, he went back to the school’s library and found the students gathered and studying. He then told them that if any of them are on his route and ride his bus but don’t have gloves or hats, he would take care of them.

https://www.facebook.com/lovewhatreallymatters/posts/1334395166582878:0

“I’m a grandfather, you know,” he said. “No one wants a kid to suffer like that.”

Many of the kids actually accepted his offer.

“There was a little girl who said, ‘I don’t have a hat,’” John recalled, “and I said, ‘I’ll take care of you, sweetie.’”

Seems like there is still hope in this cruel, cruel world. People like Jon are truly rare, but these people are very real. They are the ones who sit next to you on the metro, the ones you see every morning on your way to work and sometimes the ones that you would least expect to do something like that.

They are our real-life superheroes!

Woman Leaves Her Two Dogs In A Wire Cage Right Beside Bags Of Trash After Being Evicted From Her Home

By
Riley Cooper

A woman in Barstow, California, was evicted from her home and before she moved, she left a pile of trash bags filled with unwanted clothes and old blankets at the curbside for the morning trash pickup.

Alongside the mountain of trash, the woman also left behind her two pups in a wire cage. Both dogs were very scared and baffled as to why their owner had abandoned them alongside the curbside all by themselves with no water or food.

Thankfully, Allen Boartfield, who works as a volunteer for Dream Fetchers: Project Rescue, got informed that two frightened pups were found in a wire cage and he immediately drove to the location where the dogs had been left.

Source: Facebook

Once Boartfield arrived there, he named the two pup siblings Treasure and Catch. He tried his best to win the petrified dogs’ trust. While Treasure got used to him fast, Catch nipped him on the hand a few times while trying to protect Treasure. Being a trained and experienced volunteer, Boartfield quickly realized that Catch was traumatized but also very attached to his sister.

Source: Facebook

The two pups were rushed to Camino Pet Hospital in Irvine where they were carefully examined. In addition to both pups feeling upset and brokenhearted, it turned out that Catch’d caught a cold and therefore had to be isolated for treatment. As for Treasure, her fur was so matted that she could barely move without feeling pain.

Luckily, after a couple of days, when Treasure was bathed and spayed, not only did she warm up to the vets, but she transformed into a friendly, happy dog.

Considering what these lovely pups went through and how much they suffered, I believe everyone will agree that they deserve a new, warmer, better, and forever home.

10 Telltale Signs He Is Ready To Leave You But Doesn’t Have The Guts To Tell You The Truth

By
Stephanie Reeds

Loving is hard. Not being loved back is even harder. I know this from personal experience. And I believe that most of you do too.

The thing is, sometimes we are not strong enough to accept reality the way it is. Sometimes it is very painful for us to realize that our relationship is hanging by a thread and that thread is our love for that person. Because sometimes pretending that everything is fine is the only thing that gets us through the day.

Sadly, this is something almost everyone I know has been through.

But that doesn’t mean that you have to do that too.

There will come a time in your life when love won’t be enough. Denying that fact won’t make things better; it will only break your heart to pieces.

Here are 10 telltale signs that he is ready to leave you but doesn’t have the balls to tell you the truth:

1. He gets addicted to many harmful habits. There was a time when your partner maintained a healthy and balanced lifestyle, but now it looks like he has completely surrendered himself to vices. If you notice that your partner is suddenly having a drinking/smoking problem, this may be a sign that he is holding something in.  

2. He suddenly starts working all day and all night. When a man suddenly starts working long shifts or comes home very late from work because he went for a beer with his buddies, take this as a sign that he may be sending subtle signals that he no longer wants to be with you. It’s simple. As bad as this sounds, if he loved you, he would have done everything to spend more time with you.

3. The sex is not the way it once was. He always falls asleep on the couch. You barely make love. And even when you do, it no longer feels the same. He is no longer trying to please you. The passion you once shared has turned into purely physical pleasure.

4. He doesn’t touch you with the same passion that he touched you before. He no longer gives you neck kisses. He no longer hugs you and snuggles with you before you fall asleep. For some reason, you feel as though he avoids holding your hand in public. It is almost like you are in a relationship with a stranger.

5.Every time you ask him how he feels he is always ‘great’. But there is both sadness and confusion in his eyes. Something about him tells you that he is not fine. He is just pretending to be fine because he has no idea how to leave without breaking your heart.

6. He is more and more distant. You feel alone. Even when you are right there sitting next to him. The more you try to get closer to him, the more he pushes you away.

7. He fights with you for no reason. He has never been the type to actually get mad for something silly like you eating his dinner, but now it seems as though he has changed. If your man picks fights with you for no reason, this is a sign that he may not love you the way he used to.

8. He ignores the conversations about your future plans together. It’s not that he has forgotten about it all. He simply stopped bringing up the future you two had planned because he no longer sees himself beside you.

9. He is constantly moody. One moment he seems completely fine and then the next minute he is immediately annoyed by everything around him. His mood swings are constant, and they are completely unpredictable. If you feel as though you no longer recognize your own partner, this a sign that he may not love you anymore, but he’s just too afraid to tell you the truth.

10. He is a completely different person. You can feel it in your heart, and you can feel it in your gut. You know that he has changed. And you can guess why, but it is too damn hard to face the cold-hearted truth because facing it means accepting that reality.

Is the concept of the “right guy” a dream?

By
Elizabeth Williams

All we want is to find our true love, but in this process, we sometimes end up getting lost. As a result, we get into relationships that are wrong for us.

How to identify the “right guy” from the “mistakes”?

To help you girls make the correct relationship choices we Invited John Santana from TheAbsoluteDater.com to share certain common signs that would help you to evaluate whether he is the right guy for you:

An anxiety free relationship

Relationships that take too much work, are difficult and frustrating. But if you find your partner making things easy for you, making sure that he needs you in his life and puts a lot of effort to make you happy, only then he is the right guy. 

Positive support and encouraging

Well, for a relationship to be healthy, both the partners must accept each other as who they are. So if he is supportive and doesn’t make you feel lonely and frustrated, then he is your guy, if not then he isn’t. 

Being a best friend

True love must be rooted in a good friendship. But if he isn’t your best friend, then things become a bit formal and boring after a certain period and you are bound to lose interest in him. 

Treating you with respect

True love involves a lot of respect for each other. But if you find your partner physically, emotionally or psychologically abusing you, then he is surely not the right guy for you. You must decide about the future of the relationship because there is no place for disrespect in true love. 

An undeniable attraction

The attraction is the most important thing that can hold a relationship together and also break it apart. Not necessarily it has to be physical all the time, but mental, emotional and psychological attractions are also necessary for a relationship to flourish. 

Does he give you enough time?

You both must be inseparable from each other and be comfortable with each other in a mental and emotional, physically as well as psychologically. Even little things like taking you to the doctor’s office, visiting grocery stores with you, etc. are enough to make you attracted towards him. 

Having similar goals in life

Yes, too much of similarities are boring but when it comes to goals in life, certain similarities are required to keep you attracted towards each other. 

Stays away from ego classes

Ego is the most dangerous weapon that can tear apart a relationship. A committed and sincere guy will never bring his ego in between his relationship, but if he does then he surely isn’t the right guy for you. 

Making himself available for you

The right guy will always be there beside you in both your happy days as well as tough times. He will be with you irrespective of the condition and the outcome.

 Involving you while making any and every decision

The right guy will be your partner, not a dictator. He will always take your suggestions while making a decision, no matter how big or small it is. That’s his way of showing you respect.

It’s all about your choice. A wise choice will hugely determine the future of a relationship. So choose the correct person whom you want in your life and avoid making a mistake for which you will have to repent in the future.    

Key Information On Chiropractic Treatment For Relief Of Lower Back Pain

By
Elizabeth Williams

Chiropractic refers to a type of healthcare which focuses on the connection between the body’s

 Chiropractic refers to a type of healthcare which focuses on the connection between the body’s structure, mainly the spine, and function. Chiropractic doctors, also known as a chiropractor or chiropractic physician, make use of hands-on therapy (also referred to as adjustment or manipulation) as their primary clinical procedure.

Key Points Relating To Chiropractic Care:

  • Chiropractic is most commonly used for treating musculoskeletal issues such as problems with joints, bones, muscles and connective tissue, also known as tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
  • Researched studies are inconclusive about the efficiency and quality of chiropractic treatment for lower back pain. However, the consensus is that conventional medical treatments and chiropractic treatment are equally helpful when it comes to lower back pain.
  • Risks associated with complications arising from chiropractic adjustment for treating the low back are very low. However, the risk is higher for adjustments made to the neck area.
  • It is essential to notify all your healthcare providers of any treatments that you are undergoing or planning to do, including chiropractic treatment. This will ensure that every provider is familiar with all aspects of your healthcare to work in unison.

What is the meaning of Chiropractic?

The word “chiropractic” is a blend of the Greek words “cheir” meaning hand, and “praxis” meaning action, and this refers to “done by hand.” A Chiropractor in Massapequa can provide an alternate medical practice, offering a different approach from traditional medicine in relation to making a diagnosis, classifying the issue and providing treatment for medical conditions.

The elementary concepts of chiropractic can be described as:

  • The body’s powerful self-healing ability.
  • The close relation between your body’s structure (principally the spine) and function and how it can affect your health.
  • Chiropractic therapy is given with the main purpose of normalizing the affiliation of the body’s structure and function to assist with the body’s healing process.

Lower Back Pain Chiropractic Treatment

Lower back pain is a natural medical condition which is affecting up to one-quarter of our population annually. Most people experience severe back pain at least once in their lifetime. Several studies revealed that in most cases, acute lower back pain would improve in several weeks irrespective of the method of treatment used. Most often, the cause of back pain is unfamiliar, and it can vary significantly in terms of how individuals experience it and how professionals diagnose it. This makes it a difficult medical condition to study effectively. When you receive treatment from a chiropractor, he may choose to perform one or more adjustments.

A manipulation treatment is a manual therapy which is delivered by the hands. Being performed mainly to the spine, chiropractic adjustments encompass applying a sudden and controlled force to a joint. They are performed to increase the quality and range of motion in the area that received treatment. Other healthcare professionals such as sports medicine doctors, physical therapists, orthopaedists, physicians, naturopathic medicine doctors, osteopathic medicine doctors, and massage therapists can perform different types of manipulation and in the United States chiropractors do over ninety percent of manipulative treatments.

Top Tips To All Round Healthy Body And Mind

By
Elizabeth Williams

A healthy body and mind is something that we all wish we could achieve. However, there are several reasons why this may not be achievable. With many diet plans and other tips and tricks out there that don’t always work, but we have the perfect solution. Here we are going to look at top tips for a healthy mind and body all year round.

Exercise Regularly

When exercising regularly, there are a number of benefits. Not only does it help you to feel better mentally, but it can raise your metabolic rate and begin to help you lose weight. In addition to this, it can also help to increase blood flow around the body, helping to reduce common problems such as erectile dysfunctions. Though this is not effective for everyone, there are alternative methods such as opting to buy sildenafil online that can be used to help with the problem. This is something to consider when exercising and can help you in the long term.

Get Enough Sleep

Another way to keep your mind and body healthy is to ensure that you have enough sleep. This is vital to your overall health as sleep is at the core of every process in our body. Without sleep, the body does not function as it should, therefore leading to the potential to contract diseases as well as develop immunities and other health issues. By getting enough sleep per day, you also reduce the amount of stress that you experience as well as boost your concentration overall.

Drink Water Frequently

Believe it or not, staying hydrated has a whole number of benefits for both the mind and the body, and is an essential part of keeping yourself healthy, particularly as the weather heats up. The recommended daily amount of water that you should be drinking is around 2 litres per day – this then helps to increase the water intake as well as ensuring that you are hydrated for normal bodily function. This is particularly beneficial for the hot weather as sweating can cause you to become dehydrated much more quickly as a result.

Make Healthy Food Choices

Rather than going on a diet, it is important to adapt your eating habits and make it more of a lifestyle choice. Rather than cutting out all the things that you enjoy, enjoy them in moderation and ensure that the calories that you burn outweigh the ones that you are eating. This will enable you to lose weight gradually, helping you to maintain a healthy lifestyle also. By making it a lifestyle change, rather than a diet, you are much more likely to keep the weight off, allowing you to reap the rewards in the long term. Though this will take time to perfect, this will be highly beneficial for you in terms of overall health.

With all this in mind, it is vital to keep your hair as healthy as possible to ensure that you are more than ready to tackle every day with your best foot forward, which of these will you choose first?

  1. What About His Credentials? Are They Genuine?

Pool Party: Is This Addition Right For Your Home?

By
Elizabeth Williams

If you live somewhere with serious summer highs, installing a pool may seem like a no-brainer, but think again. Appealing as a pool can seem in the moment, especially when you’re sweating your way through another 100-degree July, pools are more expensive than most people realize, and they may even be a barrier to selling your home down the road.

Poolside Pleasures

Besides hot weather, why do people install pools in their backyards? One of the main reasons is that people think that installing a pool, along with a deck, will serve to make their backyard an entertainment hub. What’s more, for families with kids, having a pool can ensure they stay entertained all summer. Kids don’t outgrow a pool the way that they outgrow a swing set or a trampoline, making it seem like a good investment.

The Buyer Perspective

Even if you’re happy to absorb the costs of having a backyard swimming pool, you need to consider a potential buyer’s perspective before you make a decision. That’s because, even if you plan to remain in this home for years to come, you never know when your circumstances might change and you may have to put your home for sale. And if you need to maximize your home’s value, then a pool could prove troublesome. In fact, according to the property management specialists at Green Residential, installing a pool may drive down your home’s sale price.

In addition to maintenance and repair costs, one reason that buyers often rule out homes with pools is that they’re worried about potential safety issues. While you may have older kids who are confident swimmers, other families might have young children and worry about accidental drownings. Some also worry about potential liability if neighborhood children sneak into the yard to use the pool to get hurt. Typically homes with pools carry a heavier insurance burden than comparable properties, and that’s a big extra cost to take on, especially for new homeowners who haven’t had an opportunity to save for it.

Make Better Use Of Your Space

If you’re feeling torn between installing a pool and choosing a different design strategy for your backyard, it’s worth considering just how much space you have overall. Over and above safety issues, one of the main reasons that new buyers don’t like properties with pools is that usually a pool takes up the entire yard. You may have thought that a pool would be the perfect place to entertain, but it doesn’t serve much of a purpose if there’s nowhere for your guests to sit.

Families with children would also typically prefer a backyard where their kids can run around all year to a pool that they can only use a few months out of the year. Even if you live in Florida or Texas, there are going to be entire months of the year when a pool is useless, and the kids can always go to the local swim club if they really want to go for a dip. Having a backyard to play tag and catch or to host birthday parties can be so much more useful and bring people together.

There will always be buyers who are interested in a property with a pool, whether it’s just a buyer who likes to swim laps or someone who has fond memories of growing up with a pool of their own. Still, it’s important to pause and decide whether you want to narrow your potential pool of buyers by making this improvement. If you really want a pool and your family will enjoy it, there’s no reason to deny your family this pleasure, but just know that it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.
