All About Love and Dating

1. He’s superprotective of his gadgets. "The main way that trysts are found out is through the discovery of incriminating e-mails, IM chats, cell phone texts or bills," says Belisa Vranich, PsyD, a clinical psychologist in New York City. So if he’s being unfaithful, he may guard his gadgets or act really defensive when you innocently touch his phone or computer. It should be a giant red flag if he readily gave you passwords in the past, and now he’s more evasive.
2. He steps up the grooming. This is so obvious, but it’s a sign many women miss: "If your man starts grooming more without you requesting it, that could be an indication that he’s getting intimate with someone else," says Vranich. You can actually thank modern mass media for this tipoff. Guys today are used to viewing manscaped dudes onscreen, so if he has another chick to impress with his appearance, he may emulate those ultra-trimmed guys. Another clue: He’s spending more time at the gym.
3. He smells different. "When he comes home, if he doesn’t smell the same as he did in the morning, and it isn’t the scent of soap in the gym or at your home, it may be because he’s showered at her place," offers Vranich. So pay attention, because in this case, that old saying "the nose knows" might very well be true.
4. Nothing fazes him anymore. "If he was short-tempered before, a combination of added intimacy and attention could be making him way more relaxed, even downright giddy," Vranich says.

"It’s so hard to say, ‘I love you,’ and not draw back in tears. Its so hard to know that your not there to help me face my fears. It’s so hard to know the phone’s at reach, but I cannot hear your voice. It’s so hard to see you laughing when I’m crying deep inside. It’s so hard to just find feelings and now have to make them hide. It’s so hard to live without you, when I need you more then words. I want to scream how much I love you but hold back and not be heard. It’s so hard to go to sleep at night when I cannot dream of you. It’s so hard to think that you might fall in love with someone new. It’s so hard to not start crying when I hear your favorite song. It’s so hard to sit and wonder, where did I go wrong? It’s so hard to live without you, if I only would have known, I will never love another, I would rather be alone."

"It’s when I’m standing six feet away from you and not being able to find the words to tell you how much I love you and how much I miss you that I want to just scream to the whole room that I’m still in love with you. It’s when I’m sitting alone with the phone in my hand dialing your number and hanging up that I would trade a thousand tomorrows for just one yesterday. Then I could just call you to tell you goodnight. It’s when I am really sad about something and need someone to talk to that I realize you’re the only one who really knew me at all. It’s when I cry myself to sleep at night and it hits me how much I would give to hold you at that very moment. It’s when I think about you that I realize no one else in the world is meant for me."

"I’m trying really hard not to cry because every tear reminds me that I can’t let go."

"I want to say I’m sorry, I want you to know I care. I want to say I’m blind for seeing something that wasn’t there. I should have been more trusting, and listened to my heart, cause you’re the only thing I need and it’s tearing me apart."

"Pride can stand a thousand trials, the strong will never fall. But watching stars without you, my soul cried." - Des’ree

"There’s no love like lost love, and no pain like a broken heart. There’s no love like you and me, and no loss like us apart." - Ben Harper

"And it sucks because I know he’s out there falling in and out of love with girls that aren’t me." - Dawson’s Creek

"Of all the things you’ve taught me, there are still two things I don’t know. I don’t know how to fall out of love with you and I don’t know how to let go."

"A thousand words couldn’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried. Neither could a thousand tears, I know because I’ve cried. You left behind a broken heart and happy memories too. But I never wanted memories, I only wanted you."

"I saw you out last night and you seemed so surprised that I could walk right by and not blink an eye. Look at me. you probably think I’m doing fine. Good thing that you can’t read my mind." - Mindy McCready

As I look back on all that’s happened..growing up, growing together, changing you, changing me — there were times when we dreamed together, when we laughed and cried together. As I look back on those days, I realize how much I truly miss you and how much I truly love you. The past may be gone forever..and whatever the future holds, our todays make the memories of tomorrow. So, my lifetime friend, it is with all my heart that I send you my love, hoping that you’ll always carry my smile with you, for all we have meant to each other and for whatever the future may hold.

“I miss you when something really good happens, because you are the one I want to share it with. I miss you when something is troubling me, because you are the one who understands me so well. I miss you when I laugh and cry because i know that you are the one that makes my laughter grow and my tears disappear. I miss you all the time, but I miss you most when i lay awake at night and think of all the wonderful times we spent with eachother;for those were some of the best times of my life.”

I try to talk to you, but I don’t know what to say. I am afraid you don’t want me to say anything. So I don’t. But inside of me there are words waiting to come out.And tell you how I feel-like how I miss you. And how I love you despite my broken heart.And how I need you in my life. And especially how much I want you.But those words may forver stay in my heart-locked inside.Sometimes I wonder if there are words locked inside you too… but I’ll never know.
