13 Signs You’re About To Get Dumped!

Want to know if your relationship is about to hit the skids?

Looking for tell-tale signs that your love will last through next week?

Well, look no further. Below you’ll find the "Unlucky 13" -13 warning signs you’re about to get dumped.

We surveyed a variety of experts to find the most common warning signs a person is about to get dumped –including psychologists, body language experts, graphologists, private investigators and a divorce attorney. And here’s what we found:

1. Is it romantic Armageddon, or uncomfortable shoes?
Where the toes point, the heart follows. According to body language expert Patti Wood, MA, CSP, you should, "look at your sweetie’s feet when you are out with other people." She says, "if they are pointed at you, great." If they’re pointed at someone else, your partner may be looking to walk.

2. You’re starting to feel like a telemarketer.
Is your sweetie anxious to end phone conversations right away? A person who knows she’s going to end the relationship with you, but hasn’t done so yet will be itching to get off the phone with you. If she is talking to you, but not adding anything to the conversation it’s sign she is heading towards the finish line. She’s probably just pacing herself.

3. He’s no longer interested in sex, or worse, he has a new bag of tricks and a trapeze with the tags still on it.
A dramatic change in sexual behavior can mean two things:

a) He wants to avoid any situation where he might have to express emotion or attachment to you, or

b) He’s getting it somewhere else.

4. He avoids talking about the future.
We’re not just talking the general, garden-variety aversion that men have to discussing relationships. We’re talking about a man who avoids having one of those "we have to talk" talks like it’s a shot of the Plague. As for the future, when next Thursday seems like too much of a commitment, it could be because he’s trying to extricate himself by Wednesday night.

5. He says, "I need some space" or "I think we should see other people."
According to psychologist Jesse Rabinowitz, Ph.D, people don’t usually want to hurt someone else, so they use "exit strategies." By telling you he wants to see other people, he’s not technically breaking up with you (so no big crying scene to endure) but he’s given himself a way out. Of course, the second he gets a little distance, he’s going to make a run for it.

6. If she’s looking left, something’s not right.
According to Bill Raduenz, private investigator, a person who looks up into the air and to the left when she speaks to you is "not being truthful." The look left is an indication we’re using the "creative" side of our brains and a good indicator she’s telling you a whopper.

7. He gives you that little pat on the back.
Watch out for this one. A person who gives you a hug while patting you on the back is indicating that they are uneasy. According to Raduenz, the "hand pat" on the back indicates someone is uncomfortable with what they’re doing. The bigger the pat, the more discomfort they feel.

There’s more. Another important sign that things may not be going well is the amount of contact during a hug. Full frontal contact is good. The one-shoulder hug, or pulling away in other areas could be a sign the person is "distancing" in the relationship. If it’s a new relationship, the other person may not be quite ready for that level of physical contact. If it’s an established relationship, it could be a sign the person is pulling away, or getting ready to break off the relationship.

8. You don’t like what you see in the mirror.
People mirror each other’s body language when they are in love with similar gestures, voice volume, etc. If you’re noticing the two of you are out of sync, you probably are.

That’s not all. According to body language expert Wood, a person who is about to dump you will display a lack of open "windows" towards you. "Windows" being his heart, eyes, neck and palms. If your man turns his heart (the center of his chest) away from you as you are talking to each other, it’s a big sign he’s not interested.

9. You see the writing on the wall.
According to graphologist Karen Weinberg, QDE, a person who is thinking of ending a relationship will show clues in her handwriting. When writing the word "love" she may begin to drop down the letter "e." Another sign to watch for is if your partner diminishes the size of your name (sign of your importance to her.)

10. Every normal person should know which way the toilet paper goes…< If she’s picking silly fights, or there’s an unusual increase in emotional distance, you’ve got bad news. According to Melvyn Frumkes, an attorney specializing in divorce, "a person who picks nonsensical arguments is trying to get the other person (you) to make the first move."

11. He keeps you waiting. And waiting. And waiting.
"Time is an important non-verbal communicator," says Wood. If he keeps you waiting, it’s a sign his interest is waning, and a sign of disrespect.

This is true for dates as well. If he starts waiting until the very last minute to make date plans with you, it’s likely he’s lost interest, or he’s hoping something better will come along and he’s using you as a back-up.

12. She buys a personal pager, or a pre-paid cell phone.
This is bad news. Just about every private investigator in the book will tell you the pager purchase is a sign of impending heartbreak. Sure, it could be for work, but more likely, she’s using it to get a head start on her post-you life. Beep Beep - Bye Bye.

13. He used to be a three-blue-shirts-and-four-pair-of-Chinos kind of guy, and suddenly he’s obsessed with Armani.
According to Attorney Mel Frumkes, a person who is about to leave (or is cheating) will take greater care with his appearance - updating his wardrobe, losing weight, working out and even changing cologne. If your sweetie looks like he just finished taping an episode of "A Makeover Story" - Those Chinos might not be the only dud he’s looking to lose.

Want to know when you’re most likely to get the axe? Most experts agree it’s somewhere in the neighborhood of the first 3-5 months. So, stock up on tissues and Ben & Jerry’s if you’re heading into the danger zone.

Only time (and his shoes) will tell.

Life After Love

So, you’ve found out that Mr. or Miss Right isn’t the soul mate you’ve always dreamed about. Now what? The period of loss and pain doesn’t have to extend on to an eternity of what ifs. After spending a few days wallowing in self-pity, you’ll probably want to start making a few steps towards life after love. To help ease this transition, try a few of the following ideas.

Keep a daily journal.
Letting loose on your emotions is a quick and self-healing way to recover from incidents of loss and pain. This is especially true of keeping a journal. Make a commitment to write for at least a few minutes every day.

Learn at least one new thing a day.
Keep your mind busy with new information. Whether you decide to learn a new word or how to do something new on your computer, it will help you keep moving forward instead of looking back.

Take a daily walk.
Get yourself out and about with a 20 to 30 minute walk. Just the constant, repetitive motion of moving your legs one after another is enough to help you put things in perspective.

Go out with yourself.
Just because you are not attached to someone doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy going out. Think of it as a chance to go to all the places you’ve always wanted to go.

Develop a hobby.
Maybe there is something you’ve always wanted to learn how to do. Now is the perfect opportunity to develop it! Try anything from bicycling, joining a walking club, sewing, bodyboarding or surfing, learning how to watercolor, or cooking.

got this msg early from somebody i used to LOVE…

who should be blame when a leaf fell from a tree? is it the wind that blew it away? or the tree that let it go? or is it the leaf itself which never held tight?

my reply to his msg was…

when the leaf becomes dry, withered and has no more life, why blame the leaf, the tree or the wind. when nature calls for it to fall?

What hurts…

- letting go, because everytime you see the person, you only fall deeper
- holding back only to find out when it’s too late,you both felt the same way, but were only scared to lose each other so much that you didn’t let the feelings out
- falling in love with someone you didn’t mean to fall in love with
- finding the perfect guy with only one problem, he doesn’t love you
- helping the one you love "make ligaw" to your friend
- seeing the one you love crying for someone else

- Fighting for that one thing that would make you happy that is, holding on to a person who can not guarantee you his commitment unless he fix himself…then, you are left hanging for the moment…then he says, time will tell, but you still
decided to hope in him and trust him…
- PRETENDING you’re OK when inside you’re dying
- PRETENDING to be strong…. and RECOGNIZING your weakness
- Lying in bed each night, thinking of that special person you can never have…
- Being with someone you can’t actually love…
- Pretending you don’t love a person whom you actually love…

- having to face the fact that someone is capable of completely destroying the wall that you have set for yourself, leaving you weak and vulnerable
- admitting that you love someone despite his imperfections
- finding out that the more you try to hate him, the more you end up loving him, perhaps even more than before
- Realizing how stupid your mistakes was that led to your break-up.
- the thought that this guy, used to really love you and you loved him as well but you didn’t give enough and he gave up on you
- Sharing the one you love with SOMEBODY else…"
- Making a promise and realizing that when the time has come for that promise to be delivered, the commitment is no longer there.
- The hardest thing about love - believing it exists.

YOURSELF. WE ALWAYS FORGET TO DO THIS. ALWAYS

Tell-tale Signs that It’s Love, Love, Love

You’ve got butterflies, good conversation, maybe even great sex, but sometimes it can be difficult to be sure if it’s love. How do you decipher whether the feeling in the pit of your stomach is the nervous quivering of anticipation or yesterday’s lunch? Luckily, Lovingyou.com knows that “fools in love” are easy to spot. Here are some tell-tale signs that it just be might be love, love, love.

You are best friends. You laugh with them more than anyone else. The feelings of anticipation, passion, and connection are mutual. You remember little things about each other like their favorite foods, the places they want to visit and why, their views on everything from politics to fashion, and what they love about their closest buddies, but is it enough? Take a look at these signs to be sure.

What he’ll do:

  • Put you on his “A” list (pay attention — You’ll know if you’re not on it)
  • Introduce you to his family
  • Make plans for the future (near and far)
  • Do things outside of his “box” with you
  • Share his secrets and his dreams for the future with you
  • Worry about impressing your friends
  • Come right over when you ask him to
  • Try to do things that comfort you or relieve some of your stress (like surprise you with dinner on a night you are working, rub your feet, or ask about your day)
  • Appreciate and reciprocate your feelings and your actions like giving you a massage after he gets one from you, doing the dishes after dinner, or sending you a gift

What she’ll do:

  • Share her embarrassing moments and fantasies with you
  • Little things all throughout the day that let you know she’s thinking about you
  • Fantasize about her life with you, getting married, having kids, growing old, traveling the world, etc.
  • Tease you
  • Hang out with your mother or talk to her on the phone
  • Appreciate and reciprocate your feelings and your actions, like offering to pay for dinner, getting tickets to a game or event she knows you’ll love, or cooking for you
  • Ask questions about your life — past, present, and future
  • Flirt with you

How you’ll feel:

  • Excited, yet relaxed
  • Vulnerable, yet strong
  • Comfortable enough to be yourself in front of them
  • Like you want to include them in everything (but you won’t desert your usual crowd to be in a relationship with them)
  • You’ll miss them when they’re not around
  • You can’t wait to see them, talk to them, play with them, and kiss them
  • You’ll find yourself wanting to make plans to have them all to yourself
  • You’ll have urges to do romantic things (maybe on the verge of stalker-like things) that you never thought you’d never do

Signs that it’s not love:

  • They blow you off or cancel dates
  • Talking about commitment makes either of you uneasy or nervous
  • Either of you are seeing other people
  • Things are moving too quickly for one of you
  • You find your partner lacking when compared to other people
  • You watch a love scene in a movie or hear a love song and you feel a strong longing or desire for what you don’t have

Tips before you commit:

  • Take the time to compare who you have with who you know deep down that you desire and deserve. Likewise, compare the relationship you have with the one you know you really want.
  • Pay attention to how they treat their friends, family, business associates, and strangers. This is a good indication of how they will treat you over time and a big insight into their overall character.

Ask yourself how well you know them and how well they know you.

my opinion!

a noble project should not compromise its ideals with downright theft.

this is nothing different on letting a drug pusher get away with what he does because he gives most of his earnings to do good work and help the needy. Ano ito? Robin Hood? MAY GANON?!?

many artists and writers are being pawned and exploited by the sickening display of big broadcasting networks by trumping out and directly disregarding the IPR (intellectual property rights) Laws. We have laws. Alam ng GMA yan.

parang sinasabi mo na huwag na nating patulan ang mga ilang congressman ng nangungurakot dahil nakakatulong naman sila thru some of their foundations.

hinde iba yun sa situasyun ng ginawa ng GMA kay Mr. Granada. Humihingi ng supporta si Gary, bilang isang writer naiintindihan ko siya. ikaw siguro di mo makuha pinaglalaban niya eh. sa industriya ng showbiz, ang mga gahamang networks ay nakakalusot sa pagnanakaw ng mga concepts at ideas.

GMA's Foundation is a very noble organization, Yes we all agree to that (but sometimes i doubt both 2's and 7's charitable works kasi bakit kailangan pang itelevise yung mga pagtulong nila. bakit di na lang tumulong kung talagang noble. oh well just as they say in TV, helping out the poor is always "good tv"! kasi ratings iyan eh!)

But that does not mean that they have the rights to steal from someone. Do they?

hello!

hello guys! im back!!!!

it's been two days since my last blog, i was quite busy over the weekend because it's our town fiesta and another event is our parish church was elevated to be a Shrine! :) so now our parish is know as Shrine of Santa Marta, San Roque Parish Church.

Yet To Come

The song that best describe the new chapter of my life! 💜
