If you are searching for love and romance in your life and want a healthy relationship, you are in the right place.

I would like to share with you the article written by Professional Romance & Relationship Matchmaker for Women Jonathon Aslay to help you understand yourself and what you might need to have or find a happy lasting Relationship relationship.

As a professional romance and relationship matchmaker coach, I’ve helped many women with dating and relationship issues.  This has led me to identify a few client “types,” and coaching methods that tend to work best for each.  Three types I often encounter are what I call the Woman of Yesterday, the Woman of Today, and the Woman of Tomorrow.  While I enjoy coaching them all, I find it most rewarding to work with the modern day “Woman of Tomorrow.”  In my experience, she is uniquely positioned to find lasting love and true partnership—which, any dating coach will tell you, is the brass ring.  Allow me to elaborate.

The Woman of Tomorrow is defined by her self-awareness.  She knows what she wants, goes after it, and invests in it.  She does virtually nothing in life out of necessity, but out of desire.  She has choices, and knows it.  This differs from the Woman of Yesterday, who is less independent and self-sufficient.  Yesterday’s woman embraces her femininity in a traditional way, viewing men as protectors and providers. She depends on her partner for security, and is happiest with a man who is fulfilled by supplying it.

The Woman of Today “has it all,” but subconsciously lives life according to society’s template.  She is smart, strong, feminine, and successful, yet often struggles to balance career, family, and personal time.  Today’s Woman reacts to life, deriving satisfaction from being a flexible multi-tasker.  Her true partner is likewise an achiever and takes pride in accomplishments.

But, the Woman of Tomorrow has something more.  She is the Woman of Today, minus the template.  Instead, she is guided by an internal compass.  Her thoughts and plans leverage her gifts, and are fueled by her desires.  She has confidence in what tomorrow will bring because she has already envisioned it.  To have a lasting romantic union, she must be with a man who is her true partner in everything—someone who fully appreciates her core being, has similar values and interests, and will evolve alongside her.

The Woman of Tomorrow prefers solitude to a merely “good” relationship.  She leads a full and satisfying life and only accepts a partner who will enhance it.  Tomorrow’s woman has a soft, feminine side that likes to be courted by the man she is dating.  Her ideal guy is secure, financially stable, continually self-improving, and emotionally available—all things she is.  As a couple, they are best friends and passionate lovers.

Tomorrow’s woman dates with purpose, and brings the man she desires into her life.  She thrives on using empowering know-how to take fate by the hand and maximize her potential—making the brass ring fully within reach.

Are you a wishing – good – night person? Do you normally wish Good Night to your partner, parents, or in-laws and friends when they are around?  Good night wishes are important because they can warm up people’s hearts, make them feel special and loved and can be used as one of the best insomnia remedies and stress remedy and relief techniques.

What about a Good Night Kiss routine? We are certain in the importance of good night kisses and hugs for our children, but what about us, adults? Is a Good Night Ritual as important for kids as for adults? Apparently, studies show that it is…

Don’t forget to Listen to our Podcast above for Some Laughs

If we do certain things every day, they become a habit, turn into routine, and we don’t feel appreciated any more. Well, maybe. But I truly believe that most of routines are very beneficial especially for kids, dogs and husbands .

When people know what to expect, they feel safe, confident, relaxed and happy; they become more organized, manageable and more efficient. As for us, things we repeatedly do on a daily basis save us time, keep us focused, help us be more flexible and goal oriented, minimize our stress and frustration level which can save us several migraines and headaches, lower our blood pressure, and of course, help us handle any out of control situation better.

Sometimes we do take things for granted and are not grateful for them any more; sometimes we simply stop doing certain things assuming that they are not necessary any longer. But they are… We do need a human touch, hugs and kisses on a regular basis to feel happy, loved, and appreciated.

Can you imagine: if we start with one Good Night Wish and soon after Good Night Hug and Kiss on a regular basis, we’ll receive extra 365 kisses and hugs within a year? For some people this is exactly what they need to feel appreciated and loved. It might improve our relationship, sex life, health in general, and even business, because happiness makes us healthier and more successful.

• Happiness is like a kiss – it feels best when you give it to someone else. ~Author Unknown
  

And if sometimes we have to remind our partners about this extra kiss and hug, so let’s do it!

• A kiss that speaks volumes is seldom a first edition.  ~Clare Whiting

Let us be wise enough to enjoy extra hugs and kisses by giving, receiving and sometimes reminding….

And whatever we do let’s always remember to breathe, smile and be happy.
