<p>We all can experience and identify with true love, but may not be aware of the various trends of love that we follow. When our relationship goes smooth, it obviously means that everything is fine. However, the smooth relation might take an unexpected turn anytime. In such case, it helps to know about love trend that exist and the kind of trend we follow. </p>
<p><span id="more-605"></span>
<p>The things that bring you and your partner together at the beginning of your relationship might not be the same later. This is because in any relationship the initial attraction is very strong and so it hardly matters as how one partner is seducing the other because the percentage of attraction is too high at that time.
<p>However, with time the relationship becomes strong and you start expecting your partner to love you in your unique style. You partner might match up with your expectations at times, but it is not necessary for every time. In such situation when it differs you should try and form a unique style together rather than feeling depressed.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<p>To identify the trends of love of your or your partner is not difficult, however it requires keen observation. The best thing is to make note of ideas of love that you consider as your love trends. This will help you to know what would you expect from your partner. Love trends can be varied and knowing them will benefit you to know the kind of lover you or your partner is.
<p>One such trend is emotional. The follower of emotional love trend is the one who shares his feeling with the partner and is sensitive too.
<p>Another trend is creativity. The creative one is more of a risk taker, who likes to experiment with new things and likes to keep the excitement intact.
<p>The most common trend is the traditional one who goes with the rules set by the social order. They are the ones, who are responsive, organized, pattern follower and great planers too.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<p>However, it doesn’t mean that a follower of one trend will have qualities of that trend only. There are people who follow one trend but carries characteristics of other trends as well.&nbsp;
<p>Nevertheless, when two people carry the same trend, it makes their relation perfect.&nbsp; But having different trends also works magic as it allows one to know the trend of the partner and so they have more ways of expression their love to each other, making it a great combination. </p>

<p>Marriage is that phase of life which can prove to be either very successful to some or a very bitter experience carrying which off turns to be really difficult. Many factors are there that rules in the success of a marriage and vice-versa. It is the combined effort of both, the husband and wife that decides whether you can make your marriage a success or not. Your desires will have to merge with each others’ in order to march on the same route. Also, you will have to be ready to affirm and acknowledge the thinking, behaviors and the perceptions of each other. A smooth starting with a firm understanding of one another will lead you to march on the right track. </p>
<p><span id="more-590"></span>
<p><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="successful marriage2" border="0" alt="successful marriage2" src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/successful-marriage2.jpg" width="463" height="308">However, it is a must that you realize certain important things before even getting married and the most important of those is to get over this misconception that finding the right person will let you get happy in your life. If you keep searching for the right person and then get married, you still cannot have the guarantee to be successful. But if you try to build a relationship of love and communication, then any person will turn out to be the right person to live with.
<p>Moreover, for being successful in your marriage and for giving better importance to each others love, esteem and self –actualization; you will first have to get rid of or fulfill your psychological needs that include air, water, food and safety<b>. </b>Patience and perception of the importance of a situation and also the importance of what you say to your partner matters a lot. Whatever you say to him/her, should be carefully delivered and see that it does not hurt his/her feelings. Remember that a comment once delivered cannot be taken back. So, you will have to check your behaviors, attitudes and manners to limit things from being understood the other way.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border: 0px;" title="love" src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/love.jpg" border="0" alt="love" width="347" height="346" /> Forgetting your first love is quite impossible. The first love is like an instant charm that lasts for a lifetime. It could happen at any age but it gives us a special emotional and mental feeling that is really difficult to surpass. In fact, this feeling remains with us and touches us forever. First love also draws a lot of curiosity and its fond memories open our heart with passionate and loving experiences.</p>
<p>There is a fine difference between first love of teenagers and that of adults. The teens are little more fierce than the adults as far as love is concerned. But, the love that happens in teenage disappears quite easily. Survey says that the first love of teenagers doesn’t stay beyond 3-4 months.</p>
<p><span id="more-449"></span></p>
<p>As per psychologists there are 3 different phases of first love namely lust, attraction and attachment. And when the intimacy in the first love increases it creates trust and sharing between the couple, which helps in the long run. An infatuation on your favorite star or player during childhood cannot be termed as first love. There has to be a romantic relationship or attraction involved.</p>
<p>Though most memories of a first love are fond and tender, there are cases when you might have a painful affair as well. So, to be safe, one must analyze all the good and bad aspects of the person you fall in love with before deciding on the future of your relationship.</p>

But a survey claims that winter is the time when lovelife becomes tough. There are cases of a number of seperations that take place during winter. The reason, more or less, being the stress put on by the high &shy;intensity time period as well as a scientific theory that says that the cold weather reduces our energy levels and makes us moody. All these things make it dificult to maintain a healthy relation.</p>
<p><span id="more-443"></span>
<p>Though no one can fight the nature but we can always take steps to learn how to deal with situations that leads to the killing of a relationship. It seems, in winter the bad elements in us come cropping up, maybe due to lack of energy level in us. As per scientists, one reason for this lack of energy is because of the lack of sunlight during this season. The scarcity of sunlight in winters somehow worsens our level of mood regulating mechanism, which makes us irritated more often as compared to summer.
<p>So, to aviod such behaviour, scientists suggests that we should expose ourselves to the sun more frequently, as and when it is sunny. Even if for a short while, but exposing to the sun is very important. This raises our vitamin D and serotonin and help us get close to our loved ones. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border: 0px;" title="Is true love actually rare." src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Istrueloveactuallyrare.jpg" border="0" alt="Is true love actually rare." width="420" height="280" /> What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the two words- true love? If I am not wrong, for many of you true love may mean those extraordinary couples who are still madly in love with each other even after decades, lovey-dovey like newlyweds and loves holding each other’s hand. Though they may be in the sunset of their life, they still enjoy each other’s company. But is it so rare to find such couples who are truly in love?</p>
<p><span id="more-393"></span></p>
<p>Well, after years of research scientists have at last revealed why true love is such a rare thing and the answer in your DNA. In the human brain there are four minute parts that are believed to form the love circuit. These four parts are known as ventral tegmental area (VTA), the ventral pallidum, the nucleus accumbens and raphe nucleus.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/lovers.gif" alt="" width="464" height="472" /></p>
<p>The research was done on individuals who were in love newly and those who were in love for more than 20 years. When they were placed in a functional magnetic resonance imaging machine and were shown their beloved’s images, the VTA lit up. To sum up, it can be said that love is like drug addiction that works chemically in human brain.</p>
<p>Two more parts of the brain lit up along with the VTA in the men and women who were in true love- the raphe nucleus and ventral pallidum. The raphe nucleus pours out serotonin that &#8220;gives you a sense of calm,&#8221; while ventral pallidum is related to attachment and stress decreasing hormones.</p>
<p>True love is rare, but it does exist. Apparently, there are many who just aren’t persuaded to make love go on to such an extent. They either fall out of love or get bored. But there are people who indeed know the secret behind making love last for a lifetime.</p>

<p>Is there any connection between love songs and women’s likelihood to go out on a date? Well, researchers believe there is. According to some French researchers, women are more likely to go on a date after listening to love songs. They say playing the right tracks improve the chances of getting a girl out for date remarkably. This should come as a great relief for all the average looking guys who have to struggle quite a bit to get a date. </p>
<p><span id="more-355"></span>
<p>These researchers conducted an extensive study on the reaction of women as well as men to various situations. Violent video games and aggressive music stimulated aggression and on the other hand when men went to a flower shop that played romantic music, it made them stay much longer. <img title="clintblack_lisahartmanblack_h" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="300" alt="clintblack_lisahartmanblack_h" src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/clintblack_lisahartmanblack_h.jpg" width="400" border="0">
<p>The researchers Celine Jacob and Nicolas Gueguen, along with Lubomir Lamy studied 18-20 years old females (single) with romantic lyrics. The process was carried out by making these girls listen to romantic songs for a while and then were asked to go to meet a group of men in the other room and discuss food products with them. The results were quite impressive.
<p>Most of the guys were very average and stand very little chance of getting phone numbers of these girls. But courtesy to the love songs, the chances of these guys getting the phone number of these girls went up almost by 52%. Although there is more research to be done, it is more than obvious that love songs increases the chances of getting a girl out on a date.</p>

<p>It is easy to get into a relationship but to sustain it with the same passion and dedication is the tough part. There are several factors to a successful relationship, love off course being the most important. However, the other not so significant factors also major also play a major role in the success of a relationship. One such factor is humor. </p>
<p><span id="more-340"></span>
<p>Over a period of time a relation is bound to lose steam and if we do not make a conscious effort to sustain it, we might end up loosing it. A bit of humor keeps the flame burning and the tensions and worries at bay. Some people have a natural sense of humor and there are some who don’t. But it doesn’t at all mean that if you do not posses it you cannot cultivate it.
<p><img title="laugh2" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="366" alt="laugh2" src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/laugh2.jpg" width="450" border="0">
<p>Being humorous doesn’t mean you have to be a comedian, but it means that you look at things with a pinch of salt and try to look at the lighter aspects of things. There are already thousands things to worry about, so if you can find a lighter side to problems life would be much better and it would reflect on your relationship too.&nbsp;
<p>It is all about knowing what makes you and your partner happy and using this knowledge in creating humor out of even serious things in life. You have understand that problems will be there in life as well as relations and by worrying and panicking you would do no good to anyone. Rather accept these problems, smile and move forward. A successful relation is one which has deep love and a bit of humor to keep things rolling. </p>

<p>Love is a wonderful feeling but can also be very confusing at times. It is very hard for one to be certain about the person with whom you are likely to end up. There is a possibility that you would find someone who has similar interests and outlook towards life. The two of you may also have a great chemistry and love each other’s company. But the question then arises is does the number of candles on your birthday cake determine the fate of your love. </p>

<p>Outer appearance and beauty is greatly responsible for cupid striking a person. However, you would find that there are so many other things that you did not consider before getting into a relationship. The age gap between two individuals is a very common cause for break ups. However, it is fairly common to see young girls dating an older guy than the other way around. There are some men who would choose older woman over young girls, who keep giggling on silly reasons.

<p>The relationship between two people with a certain age gap is also not very acceptable in some societies. It is certainly not traditional. You may come across younger people from the opposite sex who flirts with you. In such a situation, it is important to hold yourself back as any advancement from your side may prove embarrassing. Relationships in today’s world are being carried out in different ways and you must be aware of it in order to better fix your predicament.
<p>Well! I have chosen a guy an year younger to me in age. I believe that the success of every relation is understanding, care and love obviously. In case you have these ingredients, you gonna cook up the luscious dish of your life successfully. Even if one person becomes negative, it becomes the duty of the other person to stay calm and handle the situation keeping in mind the love you&nbsp; guys have for each other. </p>

<p>Proving the old adage of saying ‘we’ instead of ‘I’ increases the love between two people right, a research has suggested that spouses who have the habit of using the “we-ness” lingo are in a better shape when it comes to resolving a conflict than those who are not in the same habit. The study was conducted at the University of California in Berkeley and stresses the importance of using the word “we” in a relationship. Its use definitely leads to a much happy married life. </p>

<p><img title="NUP_100199_122" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="350" alt="NUP_100199_122" src="http://psyblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Couples1.jpg" width="300" border="0">The research concluded the findings on the analysis made on the interactions between 154 couples of middle and older age about the various reasons for their disagreement. It was found out that there was more positive response from those who used the terms “we”, “us” and “our” in their relationships and also had less psychological stress. The study, which was published in Psychology and Aging, read that couples who used pronouns like “I”, “you” and “me” seemed less content in their relationships.

<p>The study also found that facing and overcoming the various obstacles and challenges of life together over a long period of time gives the older couples a sense of togetherness which is not present among middle-aged couples. The sense of being a partner of each other and increased confidence gives the elderly couple a sense of mutual identity which is a natural consequence in a relationship. According to Levenson who is the co-author of the concluded study, in the individualistic American Society, giving up a part of “me” in the ambit of marriage is helpful.</p>
