A couple is the union of two individuals. It can be bound by interpersonal relationship, which can be physical or intimate depending on where the connection is coming from. It is a unique invisible bond that makes two different individuals one in spirit.

Love & Marriage

A couple expresses their love for one another through marriage. People marry for certain reasons, which include legal, social, emotional, economical, spiritual and religious. And yet it is also acknowledged that people marry for them lives on their own and build a family.

Marriage can also be called matrimony. It is formalized by a wedding ceremony which can be in a church or a garden or any place of choice sacred to the couples. The act of doing so creates an obligation between the individuals involved. They are joined by a legal contract and a promise that they will be together for eternity. And the violation of the terms of marriage is called adultery.

Till Death Do Us Part

Couples should work together on their marriage. If the situations demands, both should work on it as one, not individually. Sometimes a couple both know what the problem is but could not solve it because of pride or one's selfishness. And yet they learn from problems to make their relationship stronger.

Support and mutual aid with each other is needed to deal with problems. Problems should be tackled immediately to prevent from the loss of appetite for love and understanding. A married couple should not let the sun go down without talking about problems and fixing them.

Conversations and healthy communication is the key to a longer relationship with the one you love. Problems are inevitable, but as long as a married couple sees it as part of life as a whole, they will not be affected by it negatively, but constructively.

Happily Ever After

Getting married is about friendship. One’s loved one is also his best friend. They should see each other as their confidants. They share common interests and happy moments to create happy memories they could reminisce in the future. They talk regularly and share opinions, even healthy arguments. One opens up his secrets to the love of his life.

Getting married is a promise of regular good sex. It is a satisfaction that cannot be obtained from people other than your wife or husband. Married people are obliged to give pleasure to one another. It increases intimacy and bond. It means giving everything to the one you love most.

Getting married is about security. Security starts when you build a family, have your own home, raise kids and send them to school. You wait for them to grow up and raise their own families. Nobody can live forever, but everybody wants to have someone to hold hands with when they are old. In all of the worlds, people tend to look for someone to be with them during the most troublesome times, and share the good times of the past.

Being with the one you expect to love you as you have always wanted to be is the fulfillment of childhood dreams of princes and princesses. It is always thought that everything will be okay in the end, but life does not always have a fair weather. Though, in order for marriage to work out, both need to do their obligations and responsibilities. So in the end, we live happily ever after.

When I Sleep

2010-11-21T21:01:00.000+08:00

by Robert Kyle Newton

When the dawn turns to dusk,

My world suddenly feels right all over again,

For I know when I close my eyes,

You’ll be there next to me,

I could fall a million times and you would be there to lift me up,

I could cry the sorrows of my life,

And you would comfort me,

I could laugh and you’d be sharing my joy,

I could do all I wanted to do with you and you’ll be there,

And these are the times I treasure so much,

For the world will rejoice again at the break of a new day,

And you have left me, no longer there,

I would awake in tears for in my arms you no longer are,

And till the night comes again, would I see you,

Where the love of my life returns.

Marriage Separation Advice

2010-11-05T18:37:00.004+08:00

Do you or have you ever thought that your marriage with your partner might come to an end? In a house where couples are not happy living together anymore, and the fighting between them gets worse everyday, couples opt to separate. When we say separate, we mean couples break apart, and does not live together. As a Christian, we value to “living-together” of the couples, even if they seem not to co-exist anymore. They separate only in words because we value what the church thought us, what the Holy Spirit and church principles that we learned.

When couples separate, that does not mean both of them planned this. Especially those couples who has their children involved. They worry the impact their fighting would be to their children and thus agreed to separate instead of talking it over and make way to arranged it correctly. Couples who did separate in the spur of the moment didn’t think about counseling, what are their guidelines in seeing each other, or is there any timeline of separation.

Many believe that separation is one of the best way to save a marriage. If you are a real Christian, you should not embrace this principle. Because Christians are God-fearing individual, and as one, we fear that we may upset God by breaking our marriage he ordained to be our lifetime covenant. And all in all, we couples, our life should be God-centered relationship in its whole being.

I came across these lines from the Bible, Apostle Paul in his first letter to the church at Corinth; "To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife. To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife" (1 Corinthians 7:10-16).

When couples separated, they can find their time to think, to cool off and analyze. During the separation, they can realize their responsibility for what has happened. Its like “let the dust settle”, and make time to make amends. In this period of separation, spouses can improve their problem-solving skills to counsel each other before moving back together. To much appreciate each other as a whole and to think of things that would make the marriage better the second time around.

Partners and couples should work on changing. We do not need to rush to divorce like it’s the only way we could resolve the problems that arises. This kind of separation does not promote to avoid each other; this is supposed to be the one that reduces the conflict and give each other some relief and space from arguments and pressures.

A Series of Miracles

2010-10-31T02:08:00.001+08:00

A woman and a man are involved in a car accident, it's a bad one. Both of their cars are totally demolished but amazingly neither of them are hurt.

After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says, "So you're a man; that's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days."

Flattered, the man replied, "Oh yes, I agree with you completely!, This must be a sign from God!"

The woman continued, "And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune. Then she hands the bottle to the man.

The man nods his head in agreement, opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman.

The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the man.

The man asks, "Aren't you having any?"

The woman replies, "No. I think I'll just wait for the police..."

Moral of the story:
Women are clever. Don't mess with them.

Your Smile, Your Touch, Your Heart

by Randall Drymen

Your smile awakens my soul,
As the sun awakens the day.

A kiss and my life is yours,
It seems a fair price to pay.

Your touch arouses my senses,
As the moon arouses the night.

Hold me and win me forever,
In your arms all things are right.

Your heart endures all emotion,
As the sky endures all the stars.

Love me and we'll have eternity,
There is no greater love than ours.

Eternity Of Your Love

2010-10-29T14:00:00.001+08:00

by Millette Addison

Your love is... an ocean,
Where sand meets the sea,
Waves of love rolling over me,

Your love comes to me,
As the tide comes to the shore,
Wanting and needing to embrace me more,

Your love is... the moon,
Shinning across the shimmering sea,
Deep, wide, strong, and calm.
Always there to carry me..

Your love is... my shelter,
My compass, my true north,
Where ever I go, your love is guiding me forth,

Your love is.... the fresh ocean breeze,
Gently sweeping across my face,
Touching me from place to place,

Your love is...
The salty air I smell,
Clearing my thoughts and thinking,

Your love is...
The life preserver that keeps me from sinking,

When I go there to the sea,
I am not alone, for your love is with me,

I feel you all around,
The beauty, the wind, the mystery,

Your love engulfs me,
Takes my breath away,
Holds me in wind's arms,

When I close my eyes,
Dancing memories of your charms,
Never escape my deepest memory,

So if ever our souls part to say goodbye,
Meet me there, where the sea meets the sky,

Your love will forever be with me,
Where the sands touch the sea,

Our love lives on,
Our love flows back out into all eternity.

On a plane bound for New York, the flight attendant approached a blonde sitting in the first class section and requested that she move to economy since she did not have a first class ticket.
The blonde replied, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, I'm going to New York, and I'm not moving."
Not wanting to argue with a customer, the flight attendant asked the copilot to speak with the woman. The copilot went to talk with the woman, asking her to move out of the first class section.
Again, the blonde replied, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, I'm going to New York, and I'm not moving."
The copilot returned to the cockpit and asked the captain what he should do.
The captain said, "I'm married to a blonde, and I know how to handle this."
He went to the first class section and whispered into the blonde's ear.
She immediately jumped up and ran to the economy section, mumbling to herself, "Why didn't anyone just s! ay so?"
Surprised, the flight attendant and the copilot asked what he said to her that finally convinced her to move from her seat.
He said, "I told her the first class section wasn't going to New York."

Funny Halloween Costumes for Couples

2010-10-27T09:47:00.005+08:00

Wearing costumes during Halloween is one of the most awaited parties of all time. Dressing to their scariest, sexiest and funniest costumes are carefully planned by

many. Couples are one of those people who are running out of ideas to wear during

this season. Choosing on the theme is one.

The first step in selecting a couples costume is to find the source or those stores that supplies costumes. You may consider the shops’ specialties, or collections. Consider a cheap but quality made costume. There are lots to choose from actually, maybe it on a local store around the corner or malls, or if you have the creativity you can just make your own costume and have them as pattern.

Here are some ideas we would like to share you all to lessen some of your thinking:

Some of the first-rate ideas are movies and fairy tales. Some think of famous duos, be it in cartoon or real life. Examples are: Mario and Princess, B1 and B2 from Bananas and Pajamas, Adam and Eve the very famous couple, Alladin and jasmine from One Thousand and One Nights, etc.

Salt and Pepper Shakers – what is good about this costume is that it is light weight and simple. Salt can be dress in all white (tops, socks, hat, gloves) and of course Pepper will be dress all in black. Don’t forget to put caption in your hat or at the back of your costume that you are Salt and your couple is Pepper.

Bowling Ball and Pin - This one is kind of bulky but cute and really funny, imagine the Husband plays the Pin and the wife is the Bowling Ball. Wearing this costume, you will surely be talk of the party.

Hotdog and Mustard or Ketchup and Mustard – these comes from the idea that Hotdogs are not yummy when mustard is out, and that Ketchup and mustard are a nice condiment for the Hotdogs. This costume is perfect for couples who are fond in eating Hotdogs.

Pizza Slices – Another idea for couples who liked eating Pizza. This one though is also bulky.

Bacon and Egg – Bacon for the husband and Egg for the wife, great breakfast duo.

There are more than what you can think of when it comes to funny costumes for couples. Hope some of you find this interesting and Happy Halloween!

Times In Love

2010-10-26T17:06:00.003+08:00

by Sherri Anderson

There are times when words aren’t enough
feelings can’t always be put into words;
because they are inadequate and often escape us
sometimes, there are only feelings.

There are times when all you need is a look;
a silent, wordless connection between souls
an understanding that needs no translation
a natural, knowing stare that says everything.

There are times when all you need is a touch;
nothing spoken - just the gesture of reaching out
touching, silently transferring your energy
conveying something that comes from within

There are times when all you need is acceptance
to know that you are valued as you are
that any changes you make only enhance you more
as you discover yourself.

There are times when all you need is love
no conditions or demands, only simplicity.
to know that for no reason at all
another chooses you over all others.
There are times when all you ever wanted,
was to be completed by another person.

There are times when you need all of these things
there are times when nothing else matters.

You Were Once

2010-10-26T17:04:00.001+08:00

by Lily Tchen

I once loved you so much
And for so long.
Why did you leave
When I did nothing wrong?

Your smile was once the sun
On a dark, rainy day.
It would clear up the sky
And keep it from being gray.

Your eyes were once the shine
Of the world's glowing light.
Or were they the twinkling stars
That once filled the night?

Your hands once had power
To give me the softest touch.
They'd always give me a slight tingle,
Which is why I loved them so much.

Your hugs were once the medicine
That'd change a frown to cheer.
A shiver would run through my body
Every time I feel your love near.

Your kisses were once the wind,
They were fresh and breezy against my face.
They were gentle, so gentle,
It's something no one will replace.

But, now you like someone else,
And it's driving me insane.
Although it's over for us,
The love we had still remains.

And so I tell myself...
Never again will I cry.
You were once everything to me,
That I can't deny.

But I couldn't keep my promise
And broke out in tears.
The hours I've cried feel like days,
The days feel like years.

As I bury my face in the pillow,
And cry my heart out and grieve,
I've learned to never give away love
If love I don't receive.

Mirror Me

2010-10-26T16:57:00.001+08:00

by Nicole Choiniere

My soul reflects yours
and transcends all doubts.

Creating an infinite love
our passionate feelings
intertwine with the common thread
found inside the linings of our hearts.

This filament could never be stretched or torn
unless the burdens of the outside world were to intervene.

Love has no mercy for those who seek it.

Let the angels guide us through
the labyrinth of our minds.

Shadows of ardor silhouette our hearts
and drench our souls with elated bliss.

Love is a canvas painted by God
and simply embroidered with our imaginations.

The Adopted Baby Boy

2010-10-26T16:05:00.001+08:00

Ted and Alice were thrilled when their long wait to adopt a baby finally came to an end. The adoption center called and told them they had an adorable German baby boy and the couple took him without hesitation.

On the way home from the adoption center, they stopped at the local college so they could enroll in night classes. After they completed filling out the form, the registrar inquired, "What possessed you to study German?"

"We've just adopted a wonderful German baby boy and in a year or so, he'll begin to talk. We want to make sure we're able to understand him!" the couple proudly explained.

Old Motor Running

2010-10-22T07:42:00.001+08:00

The marriage of an 80 year old man and a 20 year old woman was the talk of the town. After being married a year, the couple went to the hospital for the birth of their first child.

The attending nurse came out of the delivery room to congratulate the old gentleman and said, 'This is amazing. How do you do it at your age?'

The old man grinned and said, 'You got to keep the old motor running.'

The following year, the couple returned to the hospital for the birth of their second child.

The same nurse was attending the delivery and again went out to congratulate the old gentleman. She said, 'Sir, you are something! How do you manage it?'

The old man grinned and said, 'You gotta keep the old motor running.'

A year later, the couple returned to the hospital for the birth of their third child.

The same nurse was there for this birth also and, after the delivery, she once again approached the old gentleman, smiled, and said, 'Well, you surely are something awesome!

How do you do it?'

The old man replied, 'It's like I've told you before, you gotta keep the old motor running.'

The nurse, still smiling, patted him on the back and said:

Well, I guess it's time to change the oil. This one is black!

If I Were To Fall In Love

2010-10-12T13:57:00.003+08:00

by Ed Walter

If I were to fall in love,
It would have to be with you.
Your eyes, your smile,
The way you laugh,
The things you say and do.
Take me to the places,
My heart never knew.
So, if I were to fall in love,
It would have to be with you.

If I were to give my heart,
It would have to be to you,
For you bring things into my life,
So beautiful and new.
Love, so soft and warm beside me,
That I know it’s true,
If I were to give my heart,
It would have to be to you.

I was looking for an answer.
I was looking for a way.
To keep the magic that you bring,
To each and every day.
To live our lives together,
As only lovers do.
It started with a feeling,
And every day it grew,
So, when I knew I was in love,
It had to be with you.

Everlasting Whispers

2010-10-12T13:54:00.002+08:00

by Freida Martinez

Softly whisper your passion

Come to me my loving heart

I'll cherish your gentle tenderness

From this day forward I'll impart

My emotion of contentment

That grew instantly as we met

From the depth of my souls embrace

Straight to you for whom it was meant

Refresh your souls thirsting need

Come bathe in passion's bright glowing fire

As we dance the dance of eternal love

Wrapped in our flowing desires

Our need for each other so great

A timeless burning flame

As at last we have found each other

And our place together we claim.

A Passionate Kiss

2010-10-08T18:00:00.001+08:00

by Gabriela

A passionate night between me and you
I can't begin to tell you the things I want to do.
First we can dim the lights and get closer.....
No, wait, that's too fast, let's go back
and move a little slower.

I'll kiss your lips that are so soft and sweet,
then move on to your cheek that's so smooth and unique.
Then I'll move right along that little ear of yours...
Whoa... my, my... let me move along your chest...
Uh, oh I missed a spot, let me move back up to the neck
As I move my tongue around and around
you start to feel it as I go down slowly
and as I kiss your chest your hands go up
...but I'm not finished yet....
I go further down towards your navel...
As I move down past your waist line I begin to kiss....

Oh, I just wake up to realize it's a dream !
A passionate dream fueled by my deep love for you.

Where Is My Lovely One?

2010-10-08T17:58:00.002+08:00

by Bernard Kennedy

With her smile and swing of neck,
back - look as goodbye,
steals the evening joy trail.
Like a plane in the sky,
to holiday, summer away.
A clear blue sky
in the summer evening.

Where does she move and how?
When she goes to someone else
does she move like that too?
or do they see that.

It is a lovely thing to fall,
fall, fall in love.
in love with a girl,
enchanted lips of smiles,
and happy eyes of light,
not even Anthony saw in
Cleopatra this shine.

Twenty seven kisses,
for twenty seven days,
of this months meeting,
in her arms, empty and emptied.

Twenty seven roses for my love.
Love, a prism of crystal light
a rainbow through a glass
refracting colour light, bright.

Ah my lovely one, .
of twenty seven kisses,
of twenty seven roses,
and will she think of me?

Will she think of me
after the perfume waft has faded,
and I a shuffling slow breathless
and no longer handsome.

Will they be pressed twist pages
where this poem rests,
close to our breast.

For love is not foolish,
nor do roses fade.

A Perfect Companion

2010-10-08T17:57:00.001+08:00

by Mondal

A silent ebony night
still no fear, no fright
coase I am not alone
There is someone who is known.

They are the tiny drops from the sky.
who are so pure that they connot deny
They quitely listen to all that we say
then, touch the earth or vanish in a bay.

I love to walk in the rain
cause no one can feel my pain.
No one can see me cry
cause tears mix with them and finally die.

I have zillions of such companions,
but still alone in the battalion.
Fighting against fear and lonliness,
And fatigue of the ruthless passiveness.

Will any one even come to ask?
To remove this fake cheerful mask.
Or these descended fays are the only one,
to support me in this lonely run.

Still my life leaves a question,
will anyone come to heal this repurcussion?
or i will also become like the drops from the sky,
and will mix with the earth and finally die.

Lonely, Lonely, Lonely forever...

When I Fall In Love

2010-09-27T18:17:00.001+08:00

by Melvin Lee

When I fall in love,
I want to be
with her
always;

In happiness,
to smile with her,
and be the one
to hug her near.

In sadness,
to cry with her,
and be the one
to dry her tears.

When I fall in love,
I will spend my
every waking
and sleeping
moments
with her

and catch each
moment in its
eternally
lovely
form.

When I fall in love,
I will miss her
the very moment
I say 'goodbye'

and my heart
will yearn for
the very moment
I say ‘hello'.

When I fall in love,
all my old hurts
and pains
will seem
lost and
faded
away

and I will be
strong and
brave
once
again.

When I fall in love,
I want you
to be happy
always, ever

and feel like
the happiest
person
of them
all...

Because that's

what I will feel,

when I fall in love,

with you.

Angel of my Life

2010-09-27T18:16:00.001+08:00

by Manuel

I love you so much that words can't explain
this joy that I have for you.

When I am at the weakest point of my life
you are there encouraging me to run this race
because I am not only cause you are there with me.

You are on my mind day and night.

When we are apart I picture you gracious smile and gentle hug.

I can let my feelings out to you and won't regret it
because no matter what is you are always on my side.

I thank God for sending me someone like you who is precious and loving.

So I can truly say that you are the Angel of My Life!

Couples Costume Ideas

2010-09-23T15:20:00.003+08:00

A lot of couples love to be match in all things, be it in the like for food or shoes, but mostly match in shirts and outfits. Since the Halloween is fast approaching, we have come up with some couples costume ideas. Be it just for fun or you plan to attend to a costume party. Firstly, select the theme you both like; it can be funny, scary, or sexy. There are lots of costumes you can choose from, all in these categories.

Scary Costumes

When it comes to spooky costumes, Gothic Theme is number one in line, a classic one. Coming to a party wearing Goth Vampires is really cool; especially when both make-ups and accessories are believably true. Men’s costume can be composed of a cape, a black hair with dreadlocks, and complete it with a blood coming out of the mouth with those fake fang dentures. Women can be very sexy with a gothic princess type costume. Look dazzling with a wig, a waist and bust tight fit strange period costumes. Added jewelries can be a match too. A wig may add to the appearance, and always remember to look pale and brooding, so wear a lot of make-up for this theme.With the Goth theme costumes, you can be sexy, scary, elegant, alluring and for some – beautiful.

If you want to be really scary, wear a lot of dark make-ups, be extra creepy with those black tops and dresses. When thinking about gothic theme, think about sex appeal, fear, blood, darkness and everything in between that is eerie.

If you don’t like the idea of darkness and blood sucking couples, you may want to try the Adams Family Costume. Women play as Morticia wearing a skin-tight black long dress, and with long hair. Men play as Gomez, her adored husband wearing a coat with tie. You may also try Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride theme, wherein couples wear a wedding gown and coat, the usual wedding costume with a spooky look.

Foxy and Sensual Couples Costumes

For some ideas on this type of costumes for couples, there are numerous to think of. Here are some examples:

1. Sexy Devils Theme – Couples wear devil-like costumes. Men could wear red briefs with cape and his devil wand. Of course don’t forget the horns and the make-up. You can paint your body red too for added sexiness. They can also try the tight fitting black trench coat with high collar cap and with matching body hugging shirt and pants. Accessories could be an attached devil tail and a horn, and pentagram necklace perhaps. Women have different varieties to choose from in this theme, they can also bring a small devil wand, and wear something from red tone 2-piece suits to very alluring and sexy lingerie. Combination of red and black colors is recommended. Very important is the red lipstick and the seductive eyes effect of real sexy devilish lady in you.

2. Military Costumes Theme – Armed Forces or Martial? Men can play as a Military Captain, and can wear tight fitting camouflage jumpsuits with complete accessories of hat and dog tag necklace. Another suggestion could be playing as a Military Sergeant, wearing a sexy green camouflage pants and a sleeveless matching vest, including the hat too. Women can play as a combat girl wearing a combat camouflage dress-skirt mini with matching hat and combat pointed shoes with heels. Dress can be zippered front for added sexiness. She can also wear like a G.I. Joe Babe in super mini camouflage jumpsuits. Open front revealing her cleavage, a deluxe costume with matching choker and hat as accessories.

3. Boxing Arena Theme – both husband and wife can wear like a referee only sexier. For the wife it could be a zipper front romper with belt and thigh high. She also acts as a Round Girl, wearing mini balloon skirt and sexy midriff top shirt, a flash card as accessories. The husband could wear a typical referee outfit, with a suspender for added sexiness, tight fitting jeans, and accessories included is of course the whistle.

4. Robin Hood Theme – wherein the husband acts as Robin and the wife as Maid Marian. Suggestions for the outfits could be mini balloon skirt with tight tops and revealing cleavage for women, accessories could be brown leather high boots and a hat. For husband could be a macho-looking usual Robin Hood costume. A green tunic top, a pair of hat with red feathers and a cover boots is perfect.

Funny Costumes (For Conservative Couples)

There lots of humorous couples costumes to think of.

Petals Of The White Rose

by James Haley

Dreaming by the morning moon
protected in a tight cocoon
so pale in the gloom
Petals of the white rose

Stretching at the sun light smiles
reflecting on its dew drop tiles
a glow that's seen for miles
The waking of the white rose

Delicate as the summer breeze
pearly white of royal genes
a queen within the garden green
the blooming of the white rose

Soft as love you give it when
hearts should touch a frail friend
before the gift of life might end
The message of the white rose

As we cry these tender woes
and say goodbye to them we know
they'll fly wherever spirits go
On petals of a soft white rose.

All My Life

by Raven

It was not so long ago
when I thought I'd never meet someone like you.
Wrong was I, thinking I'm in control
Believing I'd never fall.

All my life I thought no one would
melt a heart like mine, a heart so cold,
a heart hardened by the past,
protected by shields so vast.

Slowly I was falling
without even knowing.
Only to find out too late
I have no choice but to accept my fate.

I could dream, I suppose
forever, I could hope
there will never be any 'us', that's our destiny
so I wake up to reality.

I lied when I said
I didn't love you,
that my feelings for you
are through.

I lied
not because I wanted to
but because I love you
and I still do.

I wouldn't do a thing to hurt you
but I just have to let go.
I can't hold on much longer
'coz for us there's no forever.
