The problem is that most women &lt;br /&gt;are brought up on the notion that it's supposed to be easy, &lt;br /&gt;it's supposed to be magic, and it's supposed to last the rest of your life.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe that's true in the beginning...but for it to last the rest of your life,&lt;br /&gt;it's going to take a lot of struggling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ask the people in long-term loving relationships whether already married&lt;br /&gt;or simply dating, and you'll find that even they suffer emotional setbacks.&lt;br /&gt;Arguments can crop up, jealousy can ensue...and temptation can get to &lt;br /&gt;the best of both men and women. There really is no happily ever after...&lt;br /&gt;in the sense that you can lie back and believe that you will beloved and&lt;br /&gt;vice-versa forever. It's not impossible, certainly, it can happen...&lt;br /&gt;when two people put their minds to committing themselves to their union.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all have to recognize our own respective weaknesses. &lt;br /&gt;Girls have to realize how vulnerable men are to temptation(especially if he &lt;br /&gt;lives in L.A. with Bobby around and you're in S.F.)...and they have to be on guard.&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, they should also learn that no man is worth losing&lt;br /&gt;their own self-love, respect or esteem. &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Being with someone &lt;br /&gt;can be a wonderful thing, but not when it is at the expense &lt;br /&gt;of one's own self-worth.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; Stick to your guns, girls. &lt;br /&gt;Accept only the best for yourself and nothing less. &lt;br /&gt;Don't be like these women who have said the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;        &lt;i&gt;"I don't want to leave him, because we've been together for so long"&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;             "He doesn't mean to hurt me. He just has a terrible temper. &lt;br /&gt;              He's very sorry afterwards" &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;             "I felt he could change for me...so I gave him the best years of my life."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Game Plan For Your Life&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's certainly time for women to start taking charge of their own hearts&lt;br /&gt;and to accept once and for all, that most of the time, men will be jerks, &lt;br /&gt;only if we women are dumb enough to let them. Sad to say, even in &lt;br /&gt;these contemporary times, based on what I've heard, there are still&lt;br /&gt;too many women willing to be that foolish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does this mean we should be cynical and cold, and believe that&lt;br /&gt;all men are rats and deserve to go to the sewers? &lt;br /&gt;No, of course not.Love is still a wonderful thing. But falling in love&lt;br /&gt;shouldn't mean losing your mind. A woman should still keep her&lt;br /&gt;wits about her. She should also realize that love can last a long time,&lt;br /&gt;if only both men and women are willing to work at it...&lt;br /&gt;harder than they ever worked at anything.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4129526-87860179?l=bblaguna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87860179'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87860179'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bblaguna.blogspot.com/2003_01_19_archive.html#87860179' title=''/><author><name>Joanne</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04397013789081372502</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129526.post-87822146</id><published>2003-01-21T20:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2003-01-21T20:28:16.000-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;Checking your comments&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;dunno wha i did. . .&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4129526-87822146?l=bblaguna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87822146'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87822146'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bblaguna.blogspot.com/2003_01_19_archive.html#87822146' title=''/><author><name>Joanne</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04397013789081372502</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129526.post-87801468</id><published>2003-01-21T13:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2003-01-21T13:11:07.553-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;A new blog&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before, I was just having fun reading other people's blog and now I actually have my own. yay! thanks rand!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...but it's weird...the comments should be at the end of every post...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;honey, could you change it for me? pleeeaase...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4129526-87801468?l=bblaguna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87801468'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87801468'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bblaguna.blogspot.com/2003_01_19_archive.html#87801468' title=''/><author><name>Joanne</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04397013789081372502</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129526.post-87766786</id><published>2003-01-20T20:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2003-01-20T20:49:00.503-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Just testing&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4129526-87766786?l=bblaguna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87766786'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4129526/posts/default/87766786'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bblaguna.blogspot.com/2003_01_19_archive.html#87766786' title=''/><author><name>Joanne</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04397013789081372502</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry></feed>
