5 Mistakes We Make with Men

Here is some good solid advice; No, I'm not at all an expert by any stretch, but I have walked to road of love and romance before and this is what I discovered: Lets take a look at reality here for a moment, shall we? Many women don't have any luck with guys. They try everything but they're still alone. Are we trying too hard? Sound familiar? Then they start to blame the man, "He's a jerk,".... "He's your typical guy",.... "His ego is too big"....."He's not good enough for me", and the best....and my personal favorite....."He just thinks that he's ALL THAT".... In reality most of the problems with their relationship have been because of the mistakes they make with men. If you are one of those women who don't ever seem to get a guy or, if you do, you can't keep him for very long, you might want to take 10 minutes and read on to discover the mistakes you've been making in the past. Let's try to correct this so that we can move forward with a healty relationship.



STOP Paying So Much Attention - They feed off of this gals...."egos" they have BIG ONES!!! Men love attention and they love getting attention from women. The secret of giving attention to a man though is to give him a lot of attention at first, and then stop. Once the attention is withdrawn, the guy will do anything he can to make sure he gets the attention back (especially because men like a challenge). They love the chase, but let them catch you too soon and say good bye to this guy! Think about it...if you keep giving him all the attention, he has nothing to work for and he'll very soon tire of you and move on to another girl that's not quite so easy.

Expectations in Marriage

In marriage, knowing what to expect is half the battle!  So, here are some things you should expect in marriage.  Now some of them may sound negative, but they aren’t meant to be.  We just need to be prepared that challenges will likely arise.  When they do, it doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world, or your marriage.

1. Conflict....We'll all go through this.

Conflict will happen, and that’s okay, don't you expect it? I did.  Figure out how to handle the situation, what steps to take, what to say, and certainly what "not to say!" If you handle these conflicts in a loving, mature way, it won't seem so bad. Communication!! KEY!! Talk it out!!

2. Expect Delays

Planning for your future is a great thing to do as a couple, just understand that things don’t always arrive on schedule – not babies, not raises, not your health problems, not the sitter! Things are going to come up. Never fails in my family....it's always something. When you expect delays, you won't freak out when they happen.
Ex; when planning a get together, party, etc....tell your guest to arrive at 3pm when the party really starts at 3:30. If they are anything like my Ex's family, they still showed up late..but oh how they were the life of the party when they did arrive!

3. Expect Disappointments

File this in the, “you’re both only human” category. Your spouse will not be the answer to all of your problems.  Your spouse won’t be a mind reader or anticipate all of your needs. You need to tell your spouse what you want, and need...otherwise, how will they know?

4. Expect to be annoyed, pissed off, and out numbered from time to time

What was once appealing is now annoying. Why is this? Perhaps it was a habit that he/she had that you once thought was quite cute now irritates you? Be ready for that habit of his or hers you found so adorable while you were dating, to become annoying,..what's worse is if you tell them it annoys you now and they keep doing it...  But remember this, there are things you’re doing that are likely to be driving them nuts too. Cut them some slack and continually focus on their good qualities.  If you just can’t overlook what’s bothering you, talk about it in a loving, kind way....don't throw things at them, it won't work, you'll just end u repairing the hole you put in the  drywall. How do I know this? I threw a bathroom scale once....Oh, it got his attention, and he sent me the repair bill for $95.00

5. You'll find that  you’re doing more...

You might feel like you’re Super Mom.... doing more dishes, more laundry, more bedtime reading with the kids, more yard work, more taking the garbage out. You get the idea.   When you start feeling put out and put upon, take some time to assess the situation. Be verbal, and by this I mean chat about it, .....no screaming and yelling.... Instead of attacking your spouse and demanding more help, sit down and calmly express your desire to do your jobs well, and don't be afraid to ask for help. Maybe he doesn't realize that you are getting burnt out?

6. Agree to disagree
Just because you are “one” in marriage, doesn’t mean you will agree on everything. You never will agree on everything, you may be the missing piece to his puzzle but your aren't a miracle worker. You aren't always going to be right......Even though the pieces match doesn't mean the patterns do......but, guess what?  That’s okay.  Respect your spouse’s right to have a different opinion than you.  Don’t shoot down ideas right then and there, think about the time that he put into this thought.  There is more than one way to get the job done and believe me when I say,...arguing will only prolong it. You are both partners of respect, so give a little.

7. Not attracted to your spouse anymore?
This may never happen to you, BUT it does happen to a lot of couples. You might go through your entire marriage with the hots for your mate.  But if, at some point, you’re just not that into your spouse, pray that you will have a loving heart, and talk about it, or seek counseling for guidance. Many things cause this, mid life crisis comes to mind....(been there done that, with my spouse)  Also, look beyond the physical or lack of chemistry and fall in love with what’s good about your spouse. You might be missing something really great!

Marriages are a lot of work, and they are a two way street....you need to talk it out. Remember what brought you both together in the first place,...remember the wonderful times that you have shared over the years and be grateful for the time you have with your spouse. Nothing lasts forever, life is precious. Marriage is a loving bond that takes much nurturing....My parents are celebrating their 49th wedding anniversary this October. I've never seen two people happier! Sure they argue, its fun to watch them do it, they both always think they are right.....but someone always caves in and lets the other win the argument. Communication, understanding, patience, and love for one another is why their marriage is so strong. My marriage didn't last because I didn't have what my folks have. Trust and communication....without it, your ship will sink.

Sex & Advertising

In the U.S. fashion and beauty industry, sexual imagery in advertising seems to be going in two
different directions: toward a more subtle sexiness that emphasizes the product, but also toward
the more brazen and provocative.

They say that sex sells and they, whoever they are, were right! Everyday I see it and it gets more and more risky. Yes, Sex still sells – and it can still shock, too. Through many lonely evenings with my computer on my lap and a good movie on the television, I spent many of hours gazing mindlessly while trying to work,.....then I began to realize that all these commercials are absolutely, completely perverted in one way or another. I'm not who spend a lot of time in front of the television at all so imagine the shock when I sat and watched some commercials that one would think might be harmless, be quite alarming!!

Time and time again I’m reminded of how faithful this theory is with continual reminders from the biggest brands. Everyone from car companies to watch makers, fast food joints to coffee brewers, have been trying to tell me something: buy our crap and think about sex.Now, this may seem obvious to some extent because a lot of companies don’t hide the fact that their logos are purely sexual. Products like condoms, lingerie, body wash, after shave, diapers, makeup, etc. Although these products are prime examples for this magnificent marketing technique, there are so many other companies that are in no direct way related to such acts of splendor, yet formulate mottoes that can easily be perceived otherwise.

So naturally....now I am left to wonder if this is due to some subliminal slang that has been discovered by advertising geniuses and ignored by the general public or merely a convenient coincidence. I found a study after I began digging into the whole "Sex Sells" concept because I am selling sex myself with the lingerie shops I own and recently wrote a similar article. What sells sex more than television is billboard advertisements. This is definitely on my list of things to do. While many say it would be a waste of my company money, I strongly disagree with them. Do people notice them? You tell me? Would you?

AAhhhhhhhh but wait.....I thought that some of those were quite provocative, and then I stumbled upon Chiquita, Ray Ban, Fed Ex and Planters.....I was shocked, and laughed at the same time.....I'd say they got their point across, wouldn't you? Yes, advertising sells the product all right..... and sex is the driver!

Does Sex Sell?

Oh you better believe it......Sex sells! Advertising and sex have been tied together since advertising became a big business. The use of sexually suggestive images to sell just about everything really emphasizes the point that sex is a merchandiser's best friend. One doesn't walk into this type of business with blinders on...Oh No! I knew what I was doing....I have other businesses, and I love them, each one of them...Simply Delicious Lingerie and soon to be (Simply Luscious Lingerie) are the most rewarding to me, both for personal reasons as well as financial reasons.

Sex is used to sell all sorts of products. Would you agree that sex really sells... best? I am a little bit bias due to the fact that I own a few lingerie shops myself, but in all reality, sex does sell....no matter how you slice it, it just does!

 For the consumer, it makes sense to use sex to sell lingerie, men's cologne, even liquor, but what about using sex to sell some of these other products? Lingerie is a leading seller in the market today. Sex sells claims the old and undeniably true adage. We are sexual beings. Advertisers use this attribute by trying to associate their products and services with sexy imagery hoping that some of the hotness gets attached to their brand in the consumer's subconscious mind.

However abusing your audience's attention is a dangerous thing. Another thing to be cautious about is how much nudity is sufficient to grab eyeballs and what is too much thus considered offending. This is of course a cultural question. Usually the more religious your target market the less accepted it is to show bare body parts. For these reasons one needs to be careful where and how to use sex in advertising.

To a degree, fashion brands are going with the flow of a 24/7 media landscape in which the limits of what images are deemed acceptable are constantly being tested and expanded. While we are playing a role in communicating suggestive, if sometimes playful, sexually infused messages, brands and retailers are generally reluctant to discuss the impact of what they are doing. Now the brand is less important because of the dialogue that exists between consumers, and what makes a brand cool is what this new culture defines. Today, it’s social media, the conversation. You can’t understand your consumer if you do not have a dialogue. You don't need much dialogue to discuss or describe sex. Lingerie suggests being provocative, sassy, saucy and spicy.

At Simply Delicious Lingerie we are working at creating advertisements that will show class, not trash. In retrospect, some would ask, "How is selling vibrators and toys in an adult novelty section not trash?" We don't enforce the items, we sell them. I strongly believe that everyone has a right to do what they wish to do in the privacy of their own home or surroundings....you are purchasing the products from my web site whether they be beautiful corsets, baby dolls, cocktail dresses, gowns, swimwear, or novelties....one wouldn't think that you were going to sit on a porch swing and use the toy.....NO, you are discrete in how you use or wear it just as we are in how we sell it.

I was raised a strong Catholic. Now, God forbid you sleep together or get pregnant before you wed....the church wants nothing to do with that...in fact, they pretty much condemn you....how do I know this? I'm a rebel, the "bad girl" if you will....and I got pregnant before I was married. Back in the day some 20+ years ago that was just unheard of, now women are becoming single mothers every day. Tell me......Why is it OK for the church to condemn what I did/do but it's OK to play BINGO and drink all night in a beer tent and then get in your car and drive home? I don't get it?

 I admire those who unlike many continue to find a way to sell the products without getting bad mouthed.....I have no trouble sleeping at night, in fact.....I sleep quite well. Lingerie is a billion dollar industry and unlike some, sex does sell and I will continue to sell it! As my businesses grow I will open myself up to yet other markets. Why? Why not. I like working for me and not punching a time clock. I respect all of my customers and appreciate them for choosing Simply Delicious Lingerie for their "naughty needs" and beautiful lingerie products.

Our new web site launches in just a few days! We look forward to seeing you!

A Little Romance Can Enhance Your Love Life....What is Erotic?


Nothing can enhance your love life better than a little romance. Enhancing your love life is something that every long term relationship eventually requires. How do you get your partner aroused? Do you keep him satisfied? Does he please you, or is he your slave? How saucy and naughty do you let fetish go? Add some spice and zest to your love life.....
Sooner or later your love life will be affected by the regular stresses of everyday life and many other factors that may make your love life seem lacking. Often we hear that our partners are too tired to make love or perhaps there is a problem in the relationship that make love making just a bit more difficult than it used to be. So many aspects of our daily lives are affected and reflected in our personal relationships. This is when learning how to enhance your love life becomes very important. We like to get naughty, and erotic. How do you see erotic?

For starters it helps for you to be able to incorporate playfulness in the bedroom. Being playful in the bedroom is a key factor to you having fun during lovemaking. It also helps you to get closer to your mate.

Learning how to become more spontaneous when it comes to love making can also help you to improve your love life. The reason for this is because it lets your mate know that you still find them sexy and attractive, which is the key to a great love life.

Breasts....

The Secret Rules of Breast Sizes....

Seriously folks, most men pretend to care more about women's breast size around their friends than they really do. But in reality, deep inside, they really don't care. Most would much rather find a good woman who's mental capacity was larger than her boobs. Most of the time men joke around more than anything. Inside, we know what we really want...a pair of nice shaped, and reasonably sized breasts. Sometimes
things like boobs and butts are what we feel hurt us, especially if we don't like what we have. Soooo, what do we do? We can try herbal remedies and we can do exercises to try to make the necessary changes...

Two Rules:

Most men will give you this answer:

Yes, I like big breasts, but I like small breasts as well. I have never encountered a breast that I didn't like. There are only two things men require from a woman's breast:
1. Nipples
2. Accessibility.

I don't care if her breasts are small, if a woman breasts meet these two requirements they are all over you. You see, in a relationship (especially a serious one), breast size doesn't matter at all ( it's true...there are things much more important that the size of ones breast.) A handful is and has always been the rule I know.

Once a woman has a guy who loves her for who she is, she has no reason to worry about her breast size, so she can forget about the thoughts of breast implants. If a man can't appreciate a woman for what she has to offer, believe me, he won't respect the rest of her either and ladies you don't what this kind of man anywhere around you. Bad new, trouble, and rude......you don't need it!

A woman should never get breast implants to please a man. Never ever ever do this ladies....if "you" want them, it's one thing, but to do this only to please someone else.....that's so wrong on so many levels. Some women get implants because they have insecurities within herself. If that is the case, make sure that you aren't doing this for all the wrong reasons. Ladies, if you do want implants, I hope that you'll be getting them for yourself and no one else. Be happy for "you" first and foremost!

A little advice to the women who do want breast implants...Good Lord,....don't spend your money on them..... You could always find a sucker out there who'll happily pay for them! Whether its a boyfriend, a lover, or a sugar daddy...there are men that would gladly do this for you!
