I feel like I've known you FOREVER.

I feel this immense connection with him. I have to have known him from somewhere. But how we barely met a couple hours ago. But we have so much in common. He makes me laugh. He tells me I understand him. Wow did we just say the same thing at the same time? 

Weird!

Those are the words that so many of the participants in Married At First Sight gushed about to the cameras in last week's episode. Were those feelings sincere or were they just caught in the moment? 

Can you truly feel like you've know someone for an eternity within days or hours or even minutes of actually meeting that person?  I feel like that is true to a certain extent, but then again I think that feeling of being caught in the moment is often intertwined with the feeling of knowing someone for an eternity which leads to feeling that immense connection. I think some people get caught up and just because they grew up watching the same cartoon they instantly feel like, "wow, they're the one it's as if we've know each other all our lives." 

Yah no. Not always.


My hubbie and I have that strong connection that literally cannot be broken....not by people or distance. There are so so many instances where we text each other the same thing at the same time. Or worse and even more funny we've gone to surprise each other with the same thing at the same time. Before we got married we would show up to each other's houses at the same time trying to surprise the other one only to find out we were at the other's house. I can honestly say that immense connection was not there in the very beginning. We did not know each other and it did take me awhile to warm up to him, like I do with anyone else. And that's ok! It's ok for a love story to be long and meaningful....it's what make our love story my favorite!

I want to know about your immense love connections. Are you in a long-term relationship where you felt that instant connection? Enlighten me people.

Where will we live?

Finding a home has it's up and downs and dodging of bullets (if you don't research the neighborhood well enough) and a case of headaches all on its own, but throw in a marriage into the mix and it adds just that much more. The one question that make take more than a few minutes to ponder over is... Where will we live? What if your spouse is originally from the other side of town or another state? What if your job has caused you to move away from your parents, but now you feel like it's the perfect time to move closer to them? In the second episode of Married At First Sight (the 2nd season) , Jaclyn and Ryan R. already had a bumpy start with Jaclyn not being attracted to Ryan R. at all and she sure did not have an ounce of fear to share that with the cameras. But on top of all that she's in love with her job as a sales representative for a popular vodka brand in  New Jersey. Her now husband is from L...

Chick Flicks Make History

What does the term chick flick mean to you? Are you into chick flicks? What have chick flicks done for the film industry? Have chick flicks always been called chick flicks? When I think of a chick flick I think of a movie I can see with all my girlfriends on a Girl’s Night In. I think of a movie starring a young attractive actress who meets the love her life only to be heartbroken but soon rescued by another guy she never thought she would fall for.  Chick Flicks are usually released around a holiday we all either love or hate. No, not Tax Day. It is actually Valentine's Day, the so called holiday invented by Corporate America. Despite the time of release, Chick Flicks targeted to young females who can relate to the life of the featured protagonist. As mentioned before there is always a protagonist who leads by example. She usually falls in love, becomes a successful individual or overcomes a great struggle. In many ways this featured hopeful gives aspirations for the millions of ...

Fight for What You Deserve

Who said Chick Flicks couldn't be wild? African Cats is a movie that reaches out to help preserve the life of animals in need while still being a Chick Flick. African Cats follows the life of lions, lionesses and cheetahs as they fight to stay alive. It is hard not to fall in love with the young cubs like Mara. Mara is the only daughter to Layla, the oldest and most experienced lioness. Layla is an independent lioness who fights until the end to protect not only her daughter but the complete pack. As the protagonist in the film, Layla leads by example by displaying her never ending courage and strength. She is a single mother who is able to take on the role as a leader and overcomes many struggles. The independence, challenges and loss captured in this film make it a qualified Chick Flick. Not only does African cats motivate young females and gives hope to single mothers who are facing their own challenges, but it raises money to preserve the wildlife and wild lands of Africa....
