Being stuck in the habits
Making certain things in your life out of routine is actually not necessarily a bad thing. You don’t have to invest extra energy in the topic, it’s almost a robotic process, you don’t have to think about it. It gives you a chance to rest a little, to “numb out”, as I like to put…

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… – 2nd part

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 – 2nd part
In the first part of the article I wrote about how to identify people who are afraid of spending time alone, where their fear comes from and how they can behave in a relationship. Now you can read about how the partner of such a person might react to this within a relationship, what the…

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. And now I don’t mean that they are afraid of retreating for weeks, with no human contact, being isolated from the outside world. But I mean completely everyday things, like spending half a…

What is a Man-child & how to tell if you are one
Being born as a male doesn’t necessarily mean that the person becomes a Man, when he grows up. There are many men I see, who are acting as a man-child, even though they are already grown-up. When these man-children are in a relationship, it has a really unique pattern, both for the man and for…

Toxic women: how to recognize them & what to do about it
When it comes to harassment and abusive behavior between adults, most of the time the examples and stories are about men. However, this is absolutely not the full picture. Women can also be abusive and harass men – I have seen this myself. It is a fact, that it happens from this angle as well;…

Are you living with a narcissist? Signs of this toxic relationship
Many people (unfortunately too many) live in relationship with a narcissistic person. Men and women likewise – as this is one of those things which doesn’t depend on whether you have XX or XY chromosomes. In my coaching practice I see many men and women struggling beside a narcissistic partner. And this struggle can be brutal.…

“If you loved me, you would know that….” A typical female sentence revealed
Gentlemen, have you ever encountered this sentence, said by your girlfriend or wife? I am sure many of you have, indeed. And what could you do with it? How did you react? What did you say or do? What did you think? Did you think that if you loved her, you would really need to…

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…

“Women only want money…” Is the stigma true?
I often hear men saying this sentence. That women around them only want money and that these women don’t care about anything else. Not even if the man is old, ugly, has a questionable personality, lack of integrity or whatever. Men often think that if women see money, it overrules everything else. Those men who…

My relationship articles’ compilation
Being in a relationship mostly comes with work – in one way or another. The two people need to work on their own selves, on their connection to each other, on the continuous improvement of their relationship. This can sometimes unfortunately mean struggles as well and people can feel helpless about what is happening and…

My dating articles’ compilation
Dating and writings about it is an important topic for all those who are looking for their partner. However, articles about dating can still be interesting for those as well who are actually in a relationship, just so that they can see what is happening ‘out there’ 🙂 Thinking about this, I created a compilation…

Dating in the time of Covid – a.k.a. the appearing-disappearing man
This whole year of 2020 is a challenge, regarding the normal lifestyle already. If we add to this, that someone would like to find their partner, we are not in an easy situation at all. This is the same in my case too. Now, that the world has closed up again – for the second…

There you go Gentlemen, it can be done well!
What exactly? Dating and getting to know someone. I have written various articles recently in which I told you about how it is possible to destroy a date, the process of getting to know someone. Let it be a simple chat discussion, an extreme narcissistic dating partner or a ‘floating’ psychological game. Fortunately, this is…

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? They are when the man throws in an idea, that he knows the woman likes very much. But then it does not come true, nothing happens.…

A real-life interesting chat talk…
This real life chat talk has actually been experienced by me personally. Despite being a very short conversation, it made me think… Raise your hand if you have been in a similar situation before 😉 “- Hello, Beautiful. – Hello, how are you? – All good, and you? – All is great here, thanks a…

Experiences of a Speed Dating
I have heard a lot about Speed Dating, all types of opinions. It depends on a lot of factors how a participant perceives such an occasion. The own past relationship experiences, the own openness, the own wishes, the people attending – all of these form the personal filter for the individual’s experience. Therefore, I decided…

Psychological abuse in the relationship
If abuse is mentioned, we always think of the physical abuse. However, there is another story, which doesn’t leave visible wounds, cannot be seen by your eyes at first sight. We might think, that this one hurts less then. However, unfortunately, this is not the case. Psychological abuse can hurt the same way, can make…

The me-time – a.k.a how to be yourself in the relationship?
In a happy relationship becoming one with your partner is a fantastic thing. In such a situation though, it can certainly be a challenging mission to still be yourself and not to put yourself under him or under the unity of you two. Many people actually have the fear of loosing themselves in a relationship,…

‘Whatever I do, I cannot make my partner happy…’
Tough sentence. Difficult situation. And you are in it, day by day. You do everything, to see a smile on your partner’s face, to feel that they are satisfied. You invest extra energy in doing things that they expect, to behave the way they like it, to surround them or surprise them with things they…

Through a man’s eyes: the happy relationship doesn’t depend on age
When I first talked to Adam, the young gentleman in his mid-thirties, he mentioned that in his so-far relationships he was always the younger one. How is it to be in such a relationship from the man’s perspective? What can a younger man give to a woman and how does he see his role in…

Even though you hurt me so much, why is it so difficult to let you go?
In the past couple of weeks I bumped into this topic so many times, that now I really need to write about it. Ladies, I have been seeing that we are in relationships, where – if we really let ourselves see realistically – we are suffering. The man in our life is everything but a…

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. She was free, yet a member of the team. She was loyal, yet she remained herself. She walked among the people being full of self-confidence,…

Taking on the role of the Saviour in your relationship
The Saviour role is certainly familiar to some of you. When you entering a relationship, next to your physically or emotionally abusive partner, you feel that you need to save them.
