all I want is you!

  

 

            

 

 

All I Want Is You
I'll tell it rather simply;
I'll say it plain and true-
A single thing is all I want
And all I want is you.
There are no other riches,
No treasures or possessions
That ever could compare with you,
My fondest of obsessions.
You are the very air I breathe,
The ration that sustains me.
You're all my thoughts tied up as one,
The laugh that entertains me.
You're all that life need ever give,
The maximum that's due.
If I could ask for anything,
I'd only ask for you.

I Will Wait For You

                                                                                                I                                                        
                                                                    Will Wait For You


Dear ....

I know we can't be together right now, we're just too far apart and I understand that. I also know that logically you will probably never see this latter either. But, the same part of me that knows we will be together always, regardless of the way things are right now believes that you will somehow find this letter.

I love you with every part of myself. I love you wholly and selflessly, and I know I am nothing without loving you. I will wait for you always and I have loved you since the day I met you. That night in my car, in the first 10 minutes we knew each other on the way to that party, I knew you were "The one." I had been hurt so much I didn't think I even believed in that "facade of love" anymore, but you made me believe, without even knowing it. I know somehow we will be together always and I will one day be with you again. I look forward to nothing more than spending the rest of my life trying to make you as happy as you make me, simply by being. I love you more than all words could ever try to say, and with this I end my love letter to you.

Yours always,

My Heart Beats For You

                                                

                                                    My Heart Beats For You


   Dear ....

I understand that we have not been together for very long, but I want to express to you the love that I feel. My life has been a hellish nightmare, one that haunts and never leaves me to peace. The day that I realized that I loved you, my bad dreams ceased.

What I feel for you is that awesome love that poets write about and that we mere mortals only dream of experiencing. It is the love that is considered unconditional and undying; so great that my heart seems to burst with the joy of it. I cannot fathom living my life without you - waking would never be the same without your sweet face to look forward to; I would not be living, just existing; sleeping would be impossible without you to dream of.

You have made my life worth every moment, every breath. I know that we are young, and as such are thought not to feel such intense emotion, but what I feel is true and blinding in its power. You have swept me away and proved to me that magic exists - in you.

We will be separated soon, but I believe and have faith that what we feel for each other will overcome and outlast the distance. My heart is yours, my soul in your keeping. Please treasure it. Mi amas vin!

Love always,

I Know You Can Make It

                                                                                                                 I Know You Can Make It
 
 Dear

Tomorrow's hopes and dreams will never die as long as you believe in yourself and follow your heart. The kindnesses in your heart will guide you to accomplish many things in life and overcome all challenges and all obstacles. Never give up, always have faith in yourself, and you will gain the greatest gift of all, the gift of hope and love you rightly deserve.

Whatever you may do in the future, never let anyone stand in the way of you pursuing your dreams. Know that you will always have family and friends to rely on whenever you need them. No matter what you may decide to do in life, I will be right there to help, support, and love you. I wish you only the best as you continue chasing your dreams.

Love always,

One Day

                                                                                   
                                                                     One Day
 
Dear        



From the very first moment I saw you I knew that we were destined to be together. It has been so long since a woman has captured my attention so fully or made my heart beat the way it did that cool day in May. Your smile lights up my entire spirit. Your laughter fills me with joy, and your mere presence will warm any room. I have no doubt you are the woman Heaven has made especially for me.

Thank you for the comfortable conversations and for asking me to be yours. Most importantly, thank you for sharing your love and wanting to make me your husband. No matter how slowly or at what distance our courtship developes, I know standing before God and our future family, vowing to be your partner for life, was the easiest decision I could have ever made.

Each day that passes makes our love for each other grow stronger. Although I know it’s hard for us to be apart, I know there is nothing that can keep us apart forever. Our desires will continue to stretch across any distance, over every mountain and ocean between us. Nothing can stand between us, and nothing will stop me from meeting you.

You are my future and nothing can ever keep us from our destiny. I miss you more every day. I am here with open arms where you will some day finally arrive... right where you belong.

Love Always,

For You, My Love

                                                                                           
                                                                 For You, My Love


Dear..

It's the end of the day and I was thinking about you, as usual. I want you to know how much I sincerely love the times we've spent talking. It means so much to me. It truly seems like I've known you forever and I honestly can't imagine life without you now. There will be no looking back, no second thoughts and no regrets. I want you and need only you ... and that love will only grow stronger. Do not be scared my love. Sometimes life hits you with unexpected things that take you totally by surprise. All I can say is you're the best surprise life has given me and your capacity for love, caring, and understanding never ceases to amaze me. I've truly been blessed by finding you and I'll never let you go even if I have to bring you back to Florida myself!

Your darling,

The Best Surprise

What Men Really Want

                                               
                                                           What Men Really Want

An insight into the mind and make-up of the opposite sex can be an invaluable tool, especially in relationships. As with most things, the subject of what men really want from women has been the topic of many debates... and quite a few arguments!
I am sure that many of you have heard a guy say something along the lines of, "I would sleep with her, but would marry her (another woman)." Well, what does that actually mean? It means that, when it comes to relationships, a guy has two main focuses: sex and companionship. The ideal woman, therefore, would satisfy both!
With regards to sex, contrary to popular belief, it is not looks that drives a man wild, it's attitude. He wants a woman to captivate his imagination. Someone that oozes confidence in every way: the way she walks, talks, dresses and looks. He wants a woman that, while she holds herself with class, also protrays that she wants him as much as he wants her. He wants someone that will play with his emotions sexually, someone that will tease him, force him to chase her and yet will also allow him to capture her... a little bit at a time :-)
On the other hand, he also, more than anything, wants a soulmate and a friend. Someone who is loving, caring, affectionate and tender. Someone he can talk to and also have fun with. He wants someone that will love him unconditionally. someone who is there for him when he needs her, yet also someone who he can be there for too.
He is looking for a best friend that will laugh at his jokes, no matter how dumb they are. Someone that will take an interest in the things he likes, even sports. Someone that will not try to change him, yet at the same time will help him to improve and grow where it is needed. He wants someone that will trust, respect and admire him, despite all his faults. His ideal partner will focus on his good qualities more than they criticize his faults.
If there were a set of guidelines for how to make a man feel special, I think UsedtobeBlonde expressed it best in our Male's Perspective forum:

1. Told him I wouldn't change anything about him.
   
2. Didn't interupt him when he spoke.
   
3. I was his biggest fan and had faith in him even when he doubted himself.
   
4. Listened to head banger music (even though I'm mostly country).
   
5. Laughed at his dumb jokes (even the blonde ones).
   
6. Watched NASCAR racing with him (and liked it).
   
7. Helped him launch the boat (even though it scares me and he knows it).
   
8. Baked him M&M cookies.
   
9. Respected him.
   
10. Trusted him completly.
    
11. Threw my cats out of my bed when he was here.
    
12. Drove when he was tired.
    
13. Looked in his eyes and listened when he talked.
    
14. Admired his muscles.
    
15. Always took his side.

                Who Is Your Ideal Partner

 In the dating world, it seems that everyone expects the love of their life to fall from a tree and knock them dizzy with bliss. The facts of the matter are hardly as hit-and-miss as our secret desires would like them to be. When someone has a spell of good luck, it’s rarely because of some undeserved, haphazard gift bestowed upon them. If you look back to the period prior to any favorable happenings, you’ll discover a lot of hard work and planning were most likely involved. There is truth in the belief that the effort you put into something will be equal to the result you receive. Where people usually go wrong with this formula is extending the wrong type of effort. The same is true for finding a life mate.
If you don’t discern what you want or expect from your life, you’re never going to get it. You wouldn’t expect a business person to start a new business without researching the field and discovering if it’s a suitable fit. Yet, people consistently dive into the dating pool without first making sure of what they want. The fact that someone shows a bit of interest does not mean they are a suitable match for you. In the end, it isn’t just strong affection or love that makes a relationship work. It’s how compatible you are and how you deal with the little day-to-day things that count. The only way to truly discover what you need from a relationship is to actually plan and research exactly what you want.
When you are ready to seriously begin your quest for finding your life mate, use the following steps to help you get started.
Step 1: Do Your Research
No great plan or endeavor can really get off the ground without research. Applying this to your love life may seem strange, but it really only takes a new perspective to get things going. First, analyze your past relationships. What traits or qualities did you really like about your previous partners? Write them down. Then take a look at what aspects of their personalities or your relationship that you disliked. Write those down as well.
You’ll probably get a fairly clear idea of your ideal mate at this point. However, don’t just stop with looking into the past. You’ll get an even more complete picture if you take a look at the people around you who have influenced your overall concept of the ideal relationship. Your parents or other family members' relationships will affect your opinions greatly. Do the same comparison of likes and dislikes for them. If there are other friends or role models, be sure to analyze those as well.
Step 2: Understand Your Desires
Truly knowing yourself allows you to understand all of your strengths and weaknesses. Once you’re comfortable with what those are, you can find ways to make them work for you. For instance, if you’d rather eat dirt than clean, you know you’ll always need a housekeeper. You also have some more insight on what traits your perfect partner needs to have, in this case a high tolerance for sloppiness. For some of you, the weakness may be an insecurity issue. In this case, while eventually you may get over it, you probably don’t want to get involved with a social butterfly. You’re going to be a lot happier with someone who is a little more reserved in public. Some traits or qualities wouldn’t be considered deal breakers, while others are must haves. Each person is different, so these qualifiers will be unique to each individual. Your job is to figure out the must-have characteristics of your ideal partner.
First, define what you want and need. You did most of this in step one. Now it’s time to expand on your discoveries and get a complete picture of your ideal relationship. Make sure to include small snippets of things you’ve always envisioned doing. For instance, do you imagine someone who enjoys cuddling on the couch while watching scary movies with the snow falling outside? Whatever it is, make sure to write it down so you can refer back to it and make changes as necessary.
Next, you need to determine what certain terminology actually means to you. You won’t be able to express what you expect from a partner if you don’t even know what it is yourself. Take a while and really figure out what exactly does love mean to you. What is your idea of "romance"? What are your views regarding sex? What does marriage mean to you? What about commitment?
Now it’s time to look at what specific requirements you’d like your potential life partner to have. How important is education? What about their level of independence or financial stability? What stage in their career should they be at? What about religious beliefs? Is having a different romantic style a deal breaker?
By knowing ahead of time exactly what it is you're looking for, you'll be able to tell early in a relationship if the person you are with matches your criteria. This will allow you to end bad relationships before anything progresses too far. In addition, you’ll be able to move ahead with more confidence when you do find that particular someone who meets your expectations.
Step 3: Put Your Discoveries into Practice
So, you now know what you want, but how do you go about actually getting it? Since there are shelves of books dedicated to this pursuit, I’m just going to give you a few pointers to steer you in the right direction.
The first tip should be fairly obvious, but it’s amazing how often it’s over-looked. You’ve just dedicated all this time to figuring out what makes you tick, so it’s time to use it to your advantage. If you’re looking for someone to date, don’t go to a place you’re not likely to meet anyone with those qualifications. Try to find the best possible places where the odds of meeting someone with your particular interests are higher. If you love to cook, join some cooking classes. If you love to read, join a book club. If you love dancing, take some dance lessons. A little research into what your city offers could pay off quite nicely. When you talk with someone you are interested in, try bringing up the hobbies and interests you enjoy. Get a gauge early on as to whether you actually have things in common. This is also a great conversational segue to asking for an actual date.
When you go on your dates, do things that reflect how you want your marriage or long-term relationship to be. For instance, if you enjoy shopping, take your date on a few trips to the mall. If you love the outdoors, let your dates reflect that. Not only will you be finding out if you both enjoy the same things, you’ll also be giving your potential partner a better glimpse at who you really are. Even if things don’t work out romantically, if you discover you share common interests, you’ve at least gained a friendship.

                                                                           
                                              

     10 ways to maintain a balanced relationship

Being in a relationship can sometimes feel like more work than play and there may be days when the bad
 seems to outweigh the good. But the most important element in a successful relationship is learning how to work through the tough spots. Arguments are inevitable but just because you and your significant other disagree doesn't mean you're doomed for splitsville. We connected with several relationship experts to get their thoughts on what truly makes a healthy relationship. 
Dr. Karen Sherman is a relationship psychologist specializing in premarital, on-going and married relationships and she's got this advice to offer couples:

1. "Make sure you know the skills to have a healthy conflict," she said. "When a couple is able to do this, they can actually have a more intimate relationship." So an argument from time to time can actually be good for a couple. Just don't hit below the belt!
   
   
2. "Never humiliate your partner publicly or throw something back in his or her face that has been offered to you as something private. These can be more a breach to your relationship than an actual affair." Lesson: what happens in the bedroom stays in the bedroom. Learn how to keep some elements of your relationship private.
   
   
3. "Do not expect your mate to fulfill all of your needs and take time to understand how your partner's needs are met through words and actions." The "you complete me" scene in Jerry Maguire may have had you sobbing like a sucker but learn how to take care of your own needs and nurture your partners – but don't live for them.

Best-selling author Dr. Bonnie Eaker Weil was named by New York Magazine as one of the city's top therapists. She prides herself on saving couples from all types of relationship peril, even adultery, and has a 98 percent success rate for saving relationships. Her tips include:

4. "Give verbal aphrodisiacs daily to your partner," she said. "Tell them they look good, that you loved the dinner they cooked." Who knew foreplay and wordplay went together so well?
   
   
5. "Try to go to bed at the same time every night," she said. "Even if one of you has to get up later for work."
   
   
6. Ladies and gentlemen, it should come as no surprise. Sex is just as important as communication. Thank you, Dr Weil! "Make sex a priority," she said. "Schedule it in. Take turns developing a sexual adventure for your partner. Use sex as a stress buster!"

Susan Barnes is a relationship expert who has appeared on numerous TV and radio shows across the country including Everyday with Rachael Ray and Playboy radio. She specializes in teaching people the art of spiritual romance. She's got this to offer couples"

7. "Put your partner first," said Barnes. "Put yourself in their shoes and try to think what it's like to be them before making any judgments. Most importantly, trust them." So, the next time you want to go out and party with the girls instead of following through with your set dinner plans, try to think how you'd feel if the tables were turned.
   
   
8. According to Barnes, the language of love comes in many different forms. "There is a fine line between being honest and being cruel. Be honest with kindness and use soft language, don't be brutal." So the next time you're ready to explode, take a step back and reconsider your approach. "And every night before you go to bed, tell your partner seven things that you are grateful for in your relationship."
   
   
9. "Become unbeatable together. Stay strong together under any circumstance and be each other's rock. You are each other's best friend, lover and confidant. Be loyal to one another and don't let anyone talk bad about your partner."
   
   
10. We've always heard it's important to pick your battles and Barnes definitely agrees. "Stop criticizing and complaining to your partner. If you have complaints try writing them down in a notebook and read them later. You'll be surprised how petty they really are.

                                                                 My Confession

                                                           My heart still wheeps
                                                          But they are tears of joy
                                                          From the streams of love you send to me
                                                          And the beauty in your eyes as bright as light
                                                          Puts me in a dilema of love and plight
                                                          Delicate but real
                                                          Wonderful and still
                                                         Your beauty makes my senses go to sleep
                                                         Tight as a clip feels the power of your grip
                                                          From the moment i saw you my heart came falling
                                                          Into depths of love
                                                          So steep and so deep, yet so conforting
                                                          That my entire body
                                                          Wishes to sleep along
                                                          Never minding the depth I'll be falling
                                                          Or the fear that I might be crash-landing
                                                          For from that blessed day you looked into my eyes
                                                          I felt like my life
                                                          Had found its way to the hights
                                                          So I make this confession to you my future bride
                                                          Please accept my it
                                                          My heart will never lie to you 

                                                                                                                                

Thank you

                                                                                              


                                                              Thank you

                                                           I was hopeless to find another
                                                           love and I never thought I could
                                                           love again because I've given all
                                                          my best while I failed. I thought
                                                          I was sleeping when you walked
                                                           in like a dream, and you made me
                                                           touched your body as am touching
                                                         the moon and kissed your lips as
                                                         if am kissing the stars. I wasn't so
                                                         sure maybe I was dreaming and I
                                                         looked into the sky, I realised that
                                                        the moon and Stars were too far
                                                        away from my reach, and that was
                                                         when I believed that you were real
                                                        to me and am not dreaming.
                                                       You were the one that gave me new                                                     

                                                      hope, brought me back love and am
                                                      indebted to you because I can't pay
                                                      you all what you have done for me.

                                                   

Only You

                        

                      

                               

                              Only You

Dear Mike,

Although sometimes I question things, deep inside I know that you are the only one for me. When I'm not with you, you are the only one I'm thinking of. Everything about you tells me that we can be together forever. Only you can make me feel like time STOPS when I'm with you. Only you can make things better when it feels like the end. Only you can be the one to smooth my fears away. For this I'm grateful and I hope you never leave. I love you.

Love always,

Eliana

How Much I Love You...

                   

 

                                  How Much I Love You...  

From: Jolene

Dear Chris,

I am just writing to show the world how much I love you. From the moment that we met, 'til our last kiss I have always loved you... I have never stopped loving you. You are one of the most remarkable people I've ever known. You're kind, caring, compassionate, loving and incredibly sexy.

When I am with you, I feel alive. You bring to me a happiness no one else has before. You bring to me a love I have never known before. I could not imagine what my life would be like without you. I know that I don't want to even imagine. You have touched my heart in ways no one could ever comprehend. I love being with you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. My caveman, my sexy monster, there is nothing on this Earth that I could ever give you that would ever come close to how I feel about you. I want to be with you for the rest of your life, and I hope you feel the same. If only you knew how much I want to stay in your life.

Is it wrong to be so young, yet feel so strong about you? I do not know what love is. But if it means caring for you, respecting you, believing in you and putting your happiness above my own, then I am in love. This is not lust or a silly crush... I really do love you. The past year and a half we have spent together have been incredibly romantic. I hope that there are more great times to come. I love you, Cave....

Love always,

Jolene
