There will come a point that serious relationships will be put towards the test, sometimes becoming so intimate that couples will soon want to take it to another level. While sex is not usually the immediate reason why people get into relationships, a lot have lead towards making sex a common happening for people who want to try out something more adventurous.

Have you ever been minding your own business when suddenly, out of nowhere someone contacts you and unexpectedly bursts into a fit, demanding that you do something you have no idea what is and then, because you can't give them this one thing, this person starts calling you names among doing other nasty things?

This is the 21st century. There are so many more factors and issues that add stress to relationships. There are more demands on time, higher expectations, more toys and gadgets, high-stress careers or profession. Each member of a family need more space, more independence and freedom

Having a birthday is actually a wonderful thing. Why do so many people freak out? I am happier now than I was 20 years ago.

We can so easily judge ourselves, and our lovers, against some ideal. This usually relates back to our judgments on our parents. They are the key. If you can’t love your parents, you will not find love for yourself or your loved one. Unblocking love for one person is unblocking love for every person and no one affects this equation more than your parents.

There is a big difference between pain and suffering. Pain is when you cut your hand. You don’t worry about your hand if you know it will get better. Suffering is when you’re not sure that your hand will heal, and you worry about what is going to happen. In relationship, pain comes and goes, and this is normal. Suffering in relationship comes when you hold back love because you are worried about whether your relationship will survive the pain.

If you can get in a woman's head, you can get into a woman's bed. Fact or fiction?

Society is plagued with the man going after the woman. There are obstacles the person will have to overcome in order to have guts to make an impression on the girl and hopefully become a couple.

Having a relationship or being married is actually the same in relation to women's expectations. Women want their partner to behave in a certain way and also expect from their partner to understand their point of view, agree and next time act without needing any guidance from their part.

Curiosity doesn't always kill the cat. As Isaac Asimov wrote in his New Guide to Science, 'almost in the beginning was curiosity'. Now, relationships are as far removed from science as a Van der Graaf generator is from a blender, but the same rule applies.

Meeting future in-laws can be intimidating. You hope that you will like them and, more importantly, that they will like you. While it may seem like the most uncomfortable of situations, there are a few things that can be done to increase your chances of survival.

Can you say that you do not have any emotional baggage? Do you know why certain behaviors or words hurt your feelings? Recognizing the emotional wounds - especially those that are unhealed – is the first step in identifying unmet needs in your relationship. Both partners have wounds and unmet needs. To Co-Create a Conscious Relationship you must learn to identify these wounds, see how they impact your relationship, and rectify the situation. This assessment begins the revealing and, at times, painful, experience of healing wounds.

The art of seduction is all about triggering the right feelings and emotions from the very first time you meet. When seeking a new relationship my advice is to pay attention to your appearance and learn to emanate the right body language which will quickly draw her attention and then it’s all down to charm and personality.

Guys serenade her by getting up in the middle of a fully crowded restaurant (not a cheap “all you can eat” type) and declaring your undying love for her in front of a bunch of “I don’t need a man to make me happy” man-hating women. Blaring “our song” outside her window in the middle of the night after you’ve had a nasty fight will get you back in the house quicker than you can say “Halle Berry”.

Has your relationship gone dry? Is it becoming drab after these long months or even years? Here's 5 steps to exciting a relationship. Keep it fresh and exciting!

As I get older, I am starting to realise that it is difficult to keep a woman happy in the bedroom. These are a few thoughts that may be worth considering.

Instant Karma is delicious served with bird poop and a dirty tissue. How my Internet relationship led to sweet revenge!

Unspoken expectations. These are the silent killers that tear down communication, destroy intimacy and leave our love lives unfulfilling. We all expect our partners to be psychic and know exactly what we want. Stop and think how silly this is.

Despite the relative tastelessness of kisses, they are usually referred to as sweet. Tasting of wine, strawberries and honey are some of the most common descriptions of lover's kisses.
