By the way, all three Colorado fugitive siblings had a criminal history including domestic violence, topic that will strongly be also discussed in the novel.

The Salvation Army in Florida serving Lee, Hendry and Glades Counties reported that last year they served 14, 000 meals, according to Wink News in Florida.

Line many other homeless people, Terry Norberg is a homeless man who lost his job where the restaurant that he worked at closed.  That's why he is part of his local Salvation Army meals program. The Salvation Army has reported a 25% increase in serving meals since year 2009, and mostly it is because of the way that the economy has impacted the country.

The terms above are just some of the words that you could have typed on a search engine before I arriving to this post: maybe you think you are in a manipulative relationship, or  maybe you're just conducting general research on manipulative men signs. It is absolutely hard to be in a manipulative relationship, but first, you need detection. At first, you might feel like you're not even in a manipulative relationship  but it isn't until something really huge happens that you finally admit that you are in a manipulative relationship.  All the manipulative men signs can vary from men to men 'cause each one is different. However, here you can find some particular examples of manipulative men signs: Check out what happens on Life is Like a Box of Chocolates, an Inspirational Novel:

How to recognize a manipulative or controlling relationship?

• Do you feel like you can't be yourself anymore within the relationship?
• Does it always go his / her way?
• Does him / her seem too  jealous or too possessive?
• Does he or she constantly say: "I'm sorry, I'll never do it again," but keeps reflecting the same unacceptable behavior?
• Do you seem to become sometimes defensive when someone asks you about how well your relationship is going?

Those are just only some of the ways you can be able to recognize a manipulative or controlling relationship. Now, if you think that you are in a manipulative relationship and you're asking yourself, ho to change a manipulative person, the truth is that it's extremely hard to change a manipulative person! I'm not a therapist, but it's never healthy to be in a manipulative relationship.

I really hope that you enjoy reading my novel when it comes out, and I hope it helps many women and men out there recognize whether they are in a manipulative relationship or not. The first thing that a manipulation victim needs to do is work on himself / herself, love himself/ herself, and make the right choices by knowing when to end a manipulative relationship. This post is open to discussion, so feel free to open up about the subject. Do you have a story to share? I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

This morning I saw a report on the Today  show about a couple that had a really nasty custody battle. But here's what the problem is: The husband decided to make the nasty custody battle public by creating a blog about it on thepsychoexwife.com. The website is down upon court order, but apparently the ex husband had utilized that tool to completely defame his wife. Now, this incident puts everything into question because he does have the right to speak and express himself like anybody else in the country, but apparently the way in which he did it, by directly criticizing his ex wife on a blog, caused problems in court. There are other ways in which he could have channelized his emotions, perhaps by creating a blog with general features on nasty custody battles, or maybe by writing a book on a story on  nasty custody battles and somehow using different names, cities in which they lived in, changing some information up a little bit, but at the same time, never  saying it was his own story (within his manuscript),  could have been a better way for him to let go the pressure off his chest. But to create a blog and say: I'm the one going through a nasty custody battle and my ex wife is like this and that and representing yourself as you are the person going through the nasty custody battle, and on top of that criticizing his wife directly can actually raise a lot of concern. Is he appealing to get the website back upWhat do you think about this nasty custody battle situation? Did he go too far? How would you channelize your emotions of a nasty custody battle if it was your case? By the way, the topic: custody battles is just one of the many other topics that we will be able to read on:  Life is Like a Box of Chocolates: An Inspirational Novel. Stay tuned!

Can you fall in love with a stripper? Are you falling in love with a stripper? What if you are in love with a stripper? Do you think that you will become a target of ridicule and mocking? Because of the way that the society is being shaped, probably yes. But before we get any further, I'd like to add that you will actually be able to read and experience a type of scenario like this on Life is Like a Box of Chocolates, An Inspirational Novel!. What happens when someone seems to be falling in love with a stripper? The person might feel extreme fear because naturally, the chances that they will stumble upon a stripper that does not care about anyone but getting high are pretty HIGH. However, among a large crowd, there could be a handful or two of strippers that have not being able to make it any other way in life but to become one for the sake of surviving and being able to raise their child / children. To some this is virtually not an excuse to become a stripper, but the people that have been in that position or have someone really close who has been in that position only know that this has been their only option. A lot of the times they have become strippers because they feel abandoned by their relatives, they lost their home, they went through a really bad divorce, and that is the only way to get out of the hole. Then after those strippers have been able to reach a certain amount of money saved, they're done and consecutively leave their stripping career. Unfortunately, that is not the case of every stripper. Still, the stripping career makes the stripper extremely vulnerable, and you'll be able to read and learn so much more about what goes inside the mind of a stripper and why she particularly does that in the novel.

You'd be stunned to know the amount of strippers out there that have incredible capabilities, possess college degrees, don't do drugs, alcohol, and don't even smoke! But still, whether a stripper does anything or not, is it possible to fall in love with a a stripper? It's absolutely possible. The problem is, if you decide to be with that stripper, will she leave her stripping career for you? Yes, she could. However, there might be some things that might get on the way. If you are dating the stripper that you are falling in love with she will probably ask you several things such as: "Can you help me financially until I get back up on my feet?" If your answer is no, then she most likely won't leave her stripping career because she needs to buy what her kids need and she needs to  have a roof to sleep under;  so those elements will be more important than your suggestion; for the moment. Now, if you are willing to support her financially until she gets back up on her feet and get a different job then she will most likely accept it due to the real reason behind her immersion into the exotic dancing career; a circumstance caused by a financial crisis that never seemed to get any better while working as a waitress, as a cashier, or as a childcare worker. Again, we're only talking here about a case scenario. More below this photo:

 

So if you are falling in love with a stripper / dating a stripper, how do you introduce her into your circle of friends or family members? One always shouldn't start dating someone without getting to know them well first. However, if after you've found out that for example that stripper was genuinely telling you the truth always about everything, regardless whether she has or not an education, yes, she is definitely dateable. But if I were you, I would not not tell anyone so close you  that she is a stripper, because then you could become an object of misjudgment and discrimination. If you know for sure that you are falling in love with a stripper and you are actually dating that stripper, my best advice is, it's not necessary to say anything. You are the only one that knows exactly what she's going through, and you are the only one that knows her feelings and her true daily habits. Depending on what both of you discuss as far as goals goes, then it's just better to keep it as private as possible. Now, if the stripper does become officially your girlfriend, how is it like dealing with the career of a stripper? Would you be able to handle being with a stripper? When you read Life is Like a Box of Chocolates: An Inspirational Novel you will be surprised at all the possibilities. You don't want to miss it! Stay tuned for the release of the novel! I'd like to know what you think, you don't necessarily have to agree to what this special edition article says.

Can friends make a couple break up? Can friends cause a break up? Let's take a look at the Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez break up rumors: According to multiple online sources, Selena Gomez dumped Justin Bieber because of the influence that some of his biggest friends who are hip hop stars might be having on him. Read all about it here. Chris Brown got in trouble for domestic violence towards Rihanna, Lil Wayne was in prison for possession of a weapon, and then, we got Sean Kingston who apparently got pulled over last week along with Justin Bieber by a cop who thought that it was quite suspicious that two really young men were driving such an expensive car.

How do you know if a friend is a positive influence on a relationship? How about jealousy? Are you jealous of your boyfriend's friends / girlfriend's friends and the attention that your love is giving to them? Is it fair that your boyfriend / girlfriend dumps you because your friend told him / her so? Wouldn't that be also ironic? Tell me about your story and views today!
