Life without emotions
I have watched a film (Equals) and a series (Brave New World) recently and they are both about very similar topics. In these dystopian futures, people live without emotions. Sometimes they suppress their emotions by taking pills, sometimes they declare it a virus if someone has any emotions surfacing and treat it with a vaccine.…

The physical and mental blockages of the lifestyle change
In my previous article, I wrote about that the term lifestyle change – which is so fashionable these days – is about much more than we might first think. In addition to the physical dimension – such as exercises and diet -, which is often equated with lifestyle change, there are two other dimensions to…

Dimensions of the real lifestyle change
When the term ‘lifestyle change’ is mentioned, many people immediately think of exercising, diet and the suffering that comes with it. It is a very fashionable term these days, but the full picture is much more nuanced than that. As the exercising and dieting are just two of the elements of one single dimension of…

Is the aggressive man the “real man”?
I believe many of you have heard about what happened between Will Smith and Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscar Gala. For those of you who haven’t, I’ll start with a brief summary. Chris Rock was presenting an Oscar award in one of the categories at the gala when, as a stand-up comedian, he made…

Women only ever want the bad guys… – or maybe not?
I’ve heard men say that before, as a complaint. Obviously from men, who felt they did not belong in that category. They were nice and kind men instead. And they complained that women didn’t appreciate their kindness. Because women want someone – they think – who is a Bad Guy, who is rude to them,…

The fear of spending time alone
It can often be observed that some adults have the fear of spending time alone. They can even be terrified of it.

The King of Flirting
I have already written in previous articles about those different negative behaviors of men that I have encountered with.

Top 5 epic dating fails of men – from a female perspective
Dating is an evergreen topic – both for men and women. When two people meet for the first time, there is only one chance for a first impression.

Blocking behaviour mechanisms of the relationships
Relationship is an important topic in the lives of most people. Either because they are in one, or because they are not. A relationship, or the lack of one, reveals a lot about a person’s soul. Many suffer – either next to their partner or because they can’t find him. There are many thoughts and…

As a grown-up becoming an Adult
Every child grows up once. This is an unmistakable fact.

The psychological game of ‘floating’ through the example of my dating partner
In the professional literature it is also called as “push-pull” game; in my own dictionary I use the term “floating” for such situations. But what are these situations like?

As a wolf in a relationship
I saw a beautiful picture. A wolf among the Native Americans. Sometime long ago. She was with the people voluntarily. She voluntarily decided to go with them, to accompany them.
