DIVA DRAMA QUEEN

Diva drama queen is becoming a modern common occurrence in daily life. Whereas many virtuous women take joy and pride in dignity and decorum the diva drama queen is an overwhelming phenomenon of pedigree selfishness tsunami of relentless unrestrained emotions. She has compulsive obsessive hyperactive extremes of explosive tantrums. One minute she is very loud, cursing, swearing, another minute she wants total silence, peace and quiet, loving, hugging and kissing. Giving her victims mixed messages with such rude behaviour torturing her victims, compelling and blaming them for all their problems like the emotional man. Nothing is ever good enough for them because they are perfectionists. Despite all the attention seeking forced upon others cries like a cunning wolf over every little petty insignificant issue. It is almost as if everyone on earth is to indulge them and in their bubble world seem far from reality. She shops for the most expensive quality items for herself but insists on saving money buying cheap stuff for partner, friends to maintain imposed status.
She is a spoilt brat who has everything life can offer them but never content. She thrives on the pressure of stressing others around her by bullying. She talks non-stop so forces her victims to listen to her charming life stories. Initially people bend over backwards to do her bidding. Then later, the scale falls off as reality sets in they realise they have been conned by her childish behaviour. Some friends feel sorry for her so stick with her but others run for their lives. She literally lives her life through others. She claims she cannot live by herself yet those who stand by her subjected constantly to verbal abuse. 

She is party animal , the life and soul of the party. She gets onto any man she fancies without any thoughts or feelings for hurting their partners or spouses. She takes whoever she wants and causes tremendous damage in her track. However, let any woman look in the direction of her man or her man look at any woman, he nags him and accuses him of fancying and preferring them to her. His life is living hell especially since she earns more than him. Every second even during work he must constantly call her or respond while in the middle of attending to others professionally. 

She torments him with her under hand tactics jokes and punishes him by withdrawing  affection and intimacy. She orders him to do a million things simultaneously at the same time although some men may not multi task effectively. Woe betide him if he gets any of those instructions wrong. Meanwhile she is a hypochondriac with too many things wrong so cannot function to do it on her own. She creams and yells so the neighbours hear her business as she shouts, insults, diminishes others by her ignorant arrogant behaviour.

She knows everything better than those around her, she must always have the last words, she bullies those who disagrees with her and also rants and raves at those who stand up to challenge her. Her house is full of symbols representing her shallow, hollow images values of more money than sense. A drama queen is constantly on the phone complaining about perceived problems many times a day. She complains about the services given although all avenues explored within professional and realistic human capabilities, Yet even the most genuine sound advise given by experts is dismissed by their domineering know better than all personality attitude.

As a result things get worse and glaringly seen clearly by all except her. She can adjust her life but prefers to suffer in stoic in the name of controlling her own life. When many people have life a lot worse, they dismiss their privileged status and still moan. Drama queens blow everything out of proportion and do not seem to have difference in awareness or reality check. They leave a trail of those they accuse of offending them but have no inkling  of the impact of hurtful behaviour on others. All her most expensive and latest make ups fill every room spilling over everywhere yet without basic food. She checks her partner’s phone, bank account, talks to him anyhow rudely and wants to incite fear to control and humiliate.

She is very provocative at all times yet if that person threatens to leave she cries and seduces to stay, Pleads how much she loves him and cannot live without him. She makes him feel indispensably needed by her manipulative needy behaviour. However, the dust hardly settles after they make up when she shows her true colours again. She never does anything wrong because it is always his responsibility to make her happy. When the going gets tough she slips into the saboteur victim archetype and therefore compound the misery but once there hurts the very she claims to love.

She always feels sorry for herself, making those around her have sympathy for her but does not care about those whose real presence and feelings she denies from flourishing and thriving. If she is unhappy everyone around her must be unhappy. If she is unwell ,everyone must run after her twice as hard than ever before, If a TV program is allowed by her, she only must choose her favourite programs, This affects the food to be prepared must be only her favourite or she will not eat. the house must be decorated in her favourite colours without consideration of partner’s input or have any say in the matter because she always knows best. 

The smallest thing done by her is over magnified out of all proportion.Those able to impact and help her improve her life are seen as threats so she constantly queries their motives. One is never relaxed around her and she wants the atmosphere to be full of dramatic tension. She mistakes her unhealthy control freaks actions and behaviours as focus, alertness and doing the right thing. People soon notice the depressive impact on those who hang around her,  Everything is done only on her terms always so people implode, shut down to let her rattle on with judge and jury self indulging character. She is unforgiving, vindictive, and constantly ordering every one around.
She decides what she thinks is best for her best friends. She chooses partners for her friends or breaks up any relationships taking away her friends from serving her needs first at her beck, call and doing her bidding. She breaks the golden rule so does not treat others as she likes to be treated thereby depriving others from what enjoys herself and brags about. Her phone is private and no one dare touch or use it but she has to vet everyone’s friends including writing letters to drive wedges between friends to gain friendship advantage. It is years later they discover she played them but it’s too late.If you a diva dram queen making life miserable for others it does not mean you re a bad person. You need to become aware of the damage you cause many people often too polite and too refined to kowtow to your uncourteous behaviour. You also miss on how much you will gain from learning from the few courageous people who truly love and care about her. The Bible says all must look after interest of each other. So if you are a diva drama queen, so stop acting like Jezebel, who is ruthless in always having her way. She did not care whom she destroyed in the process for personal gain, killing many people in the way and destroying even a nation for her diva drama queen lifestyle.
The good news is, God loves diva dram queens but hates and abhors their behaviour towards others for their own benefit. So God sent Jesus to die for them to transform them and change them into better people for their own good. God says those who love, obey and serve Him are blessed to sit with God. So consider your ways and stop hurting people in the name of power and control. If you are a victim of a diva drama queen, seek help immediately to free yourself from bondage you are under. For whom the Son of God sets free is free indeed. Like addicts, they are manipulative and ruthless so cannot see reason logically. They live in their own bubble world  so have no sense of true understanding of reality.

NUTRITION AND YOUR SPINE

Whether it’s the spine, the heart, the brain, or the digestive system, we absolutely are what we eat. But the great news is that small dietary changes you make today can add up to loads of bone protection. What you eat can directly impact your spine.  You may not think that your diet affects your spine, but it actually plays a key role. A healthy diet consists mostly of lean proteins, healthy fats, lots of fresh fruits, vegetables is ideal for building a lean body and muscles support spine.It is a topic I have a lot of experience with and one I am passionate about. The truth about back pain and spine issues is that most people will experience them at some point in their lives. Another fact? And this is an important one. Most of those people won’t need surgery. Long-term dietary changes can benefit your spine condition. If you are overweight, ask a health professional to help you lose weight, especially abdominal fat.

Most people can do this safely by eating fresh, raw, or steamed vegetables every day eating two or three pieces of fresh fruit every day eating five to seven fish meals a week eating three to six ounces of clean, lean beef, poultry, lamb, or game meat daily.To improve the condition of your spine, supplement your diet with a multivitamin along with a B-complex and Omega-3s, as they have been shown to help decrease pain in the nerves of the spine.

Especially when it comes to the waist line, excessive weight is a strain on the spine, and is a major contributor to chronic back pain and poor general health. I know this blog is supposed to be about spine surgery.Eggs are also an excellent source of protein for most people using olive oil on salads and for cooking daily eating fresh nuts and seeds. Almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds give us high quality, healthy fats

If you do not have a regular habit of exercise, invest in instruction with a professional who can teach you how to strengthen your muscles and protect your joints. Certain exercises will be very good for some spine conditions, and possibly harmful for others. An exercise professional is your best choice for guidance to design a safe, effective program just for your needs.

Obesity is on the rise in our country and so too is back pain. The relationship between the two has been studied extensively and the proof is clear  our bodies simply were not designed to carry around too much extra weight. Since spine bears brunt of the load, treat it well. Maintaining a healthy diet is one of the most important ways to do that.

Bon Appétit. Unfortunately for the millions of people suffering from chronic low back pain, there is no one certain cure. Drink at least 8 large glasses of water or herbal tea daily. Avoid fruit juices or beverages with colouring and preservatives added. This includes soda pop.

Eliminate simple sugars. Get rid of sweets and starchy, refined white flour foods from your diet. Avoid packaged foods with added preservatives and colourings. Take a high quality multiple vitamin/mineral supplements 3 times daily with each meal. f you have any form of Arthritis or any inflammatory condition, take a pure fish oil supplement. Most people are helped by one to three grams of combined omega 3 fatty acids daily. Look for EPA and DHA on the label. Add vitamin D3 to your supplements; make sure you get 800 IU to 1000 IU daily. Add vitamin D3 to your supplements; make sure you get 800 IU to 1000 IU daily.

You may need more if you have a history of malabsorption, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease, cystic fibrosis, gastric bypass surgery. Foods that are good for bone health is composed of two things, namely calcium and vitamin D. Calcium is an essential mineral for the body.

What I often find about people who are new to a condition that is negatively impacting their spine, and overall health is that they are hungry for information about what they themselves can do to make the pain go away. In addition to those people are the ones caring for someone experiencing debilitating back pain; they want to know what they can do to prevent themselves from travelling down the same path.

So today, I want to explore the topic of nutrition and bone health. It isn’t something we necessarily hear much about in the mainstream media is it? I bet you can recite to me the virtues of Omega-3 fatty acids for heart health or the importance of a diet rich in colourful fruits and vegetables to help stave off cancer.

But what about a diet with the health of your bones (of which your spine is the largest) in mind? Do you know that looks like or why it matters? Read on to find out. The health and well-being of every structure in our bodies is based largely upon our vitamin and mineral composition.

A View on Vitamins :While it’s true that many of the beneficial vitamins that help keep the bones strong can be found in supplement form, your best bet is to get your dose via the foods you eat. You can follow a vitamin supplement regimen to a “t,” and you won’t see the benefits if your diet otherwise consists of heavily processed and unhealthy foods. Your best bet is to get your daily dose by eating highly nutritious foods. What types of foods should you focus on.

Here are a few to consider:

Meat – There are now more recipes than ever before that consist of the highly nutritious parts of these animals. Beef, calf and chicken liver, for example, are significant sources of Vitamin A (helps repair tissue and aids in bone formation), Vitamin B12 (important for healthy bone marrow), Vitamin K (necessary for proper absorption of calcium into bones) and Iron (necessary for healthy cells, muscles support spine. That’s a huge punch of bone-healthy vitamins in just one piece of food.

Mean Greens – Spinach packs a big Vitamin A and B12 punch, while frilly kale and broccoli are great sources of Vitamin K and Iron. Many nutritionists say the greener the vegetable, the better. But if you have an aversion to how these veggies taste in their raw form, get creative. Find recipes that help you incorporate them into your favourite dishes while your palate adjusts to their flavour.

Outstanding Oranges – Did you know that orange fruits and vegetables including nectarines, cantaloupe, apricots, carrots and sweet potatoes are all great sources of Vitamin A? Remember, this vitamin is essential for repairing damaged tissue in the body as well as in the formation of strong bones. And here we thought it was only calcium that did all the heavy lifting in that department.Dutiful Dairy – Depending on who you consult, dairy can get a pretty bad rap these days. From stories of intestinal upset to other autoimmune conditions, sifting through the pros and cons can seem daunting. If you’re lactose intolerant, then avoiding dairy products might make sense. But for those who aren’t, there are big calcium and Vitamin D, B12 and K benefits. The quality of the dairy you consume and making sure it isn’t filled with added “fake” ingredients or unnecessary sugars is the key to keeping dairy as part of your healthy diet in check.The key is to find what works for you, often through trial and error. Medical approaches usually focus more on addressing anatomical problems in the lower back, but treating pain is often more than just treating the medical issue. For best results, try a well-rounded approach. We’ve borrowed these tips to reduce or relieve lower back pain from our readers. Try them out, and let us know which ones work for you. Many lower back problems can irritate nerve roots and cause pain. See Lower Back Pain Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment

Release your inner endorphins
Endorphins, hormones made naturally in the body, can be just as strong as any manufactured pain medication. When endorphins are released in the body, they help block pain signals from registering with the brain. They also help alleviate anxiety, stress, and depression, which are all conditions that are often associated with chronic back pain.

• Try the following activities to release these feel-good messengers:
  • Aerobic exercise
  • Massage therapy
  • Deep breathing
  • Meditation
  • Acupuncture
  • Laughing and smiling
  • Eating dark chocolate
  • Listening to music you love
  • Being social
  • Get restorative sleep

Insomnia and Backpain

Out of all medical conditions, pain is the number one cause of insomnia. Approximately 2/3 of patients with chronic back pain suffer from sleep disorders. Paradoxically, inadequate sleep can make back pain worse. This vicious cycle makes it ineffective to treat just one of the problems. Both the sleep problems and the chronic pain need to be treated.

Try them out, and let us know which ones work for you. Many lower back problems can irritate nerve roots and cause pain. See Lower Back Pain Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment.

There are many options for treating sleep problems that accompany chronic lower back pain:

• Medication
• Relaxation techniques
• Psychological techniques
• Cutting back on caffeine
• Eating the correct foods
• Getting the right amount of exercise
• Writing your worries down

Often, a combination of approaches will work best.

See Snacks, Supplements, and Scents to Help You Sleep and 11 Unconventional Sleep Tips: How to Get to Sleep and Stay Asleep Why is Exercise Good for Back Pain?

Exercise your core
The muscles in your abs and back play a critical role in supporting the lower lumbar spine. These muscles don’t get a good workout in most people’s normal day. Consumer Reports reported that in retrospect, 58% of people with back pain wished they had done more back strengthening exercises. There are many simple exercises that can be performed in 20 to 30 minutes as part of a daily routine.

JESUS BREAD OF LIFE

Jesus is the Bread of Life so those who partake of this Bread will live forever more. Bread is important as a basic foodstuff with social and emotional significance beyond its importance in nutrition. It plays an essential role in Christianity because . Other religious rituals and secular culture feature bread prominently in daily life reflected in language, where it appears in Christian Prayer “Give us this day our daily bread. In etymology of words, those who eat/share bread with you are part of the family of the Kingdom of God in the communion and Eucharist. Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour and water, by baking. Throughout recorded history bread is popular around the world as one of the oldest foods since the dawn of agriculture. There are many combinations and proportions of types of flour and other ingredients, and also of different traditional recipes and modes of preparation of bread. As a result, there are wide varieties of types, shapes, sizes, and textures of breads in various regions. Bread may be leavened by different processes ranging from use of natural microbes in sourdough recipes to high-pressure aeration method preparation for baking. Some products are left unleavened, either for preference, or for traditional or religious reasons. Many non-cereal ingredients may be included, ranging from fruits and nuts to various fats. Commercial bread is enhanced by nutritional conditioners to improve flavour, texture, colour, shelf life or ease of manufacturing. Depending on local custom and convenience, bread is served in various forms at any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, or used as ingredient in culinary preparations, fried items coated in crumbs to prevent sticking, blend main component of bread pudding or stuffings designed to fill cavities or retain juices might drip away.

So God gives us His daily bread for living. During the Jewish festival of Passover, only unleavened bread is eaten, in commemoration of the flight from slavery in Egypt. The Israelites did not have enough time to allow their bread to rise, and so ate only unleavened bread matzoh. In the Christian ritual of the Eucharist, bread symbolically represents the body of Christ, and is eaten as a sacrament. Specific aspects of the ritual itself, including composition of bread, vary from denomination to denomination. Over 30 people worldwide have seen Jesus on toast and food unexpectedly.The differences in the practice of the Eucharist stems from different descriptions and depictions of the Last Supper which provides scriptural basis for Eucharist. The Synoptic Gospels present the Last Supper as a Passover meal and suggest that the bread at the Last Supper would be unleavened. In the Gospel of John, the Last Supper occurred day before Passover suggesting bread would be leavened. Despite disagreement, Council of Florence of the Catholic church agreed “the body of Christ is truly confected in both unleavened and leavened wheat bread, and priests should confect the body of Christ in either. ”Jesus teaches us to pray that God would give us daily bread in Matthew 6:9-13. Jesus was not telling His disciples to pray only for bread to feed the flesh but to depend on God, Jehovah Jireh to supply all their needs.  Give us this day our daily bread τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπιούσιον δὸς ἡμῖν σήμερον begins with recognition of God as Father. Submitting to God as the Absolute Creator in Heaven. Hallowing God’s Name, accepting His Will on earth as it is in Heaven, thanksgiving, adoration, honour and glory, petitions for personal needs. When Jesus says we are to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread,” He’s talking about more than just bread.Divine dining is taken to a whole new level when my little brother at 4 years old insisted on only eating his bread cut out as a cross. It did not matter the variety of bread eaten it had to be precisely meticulously designed in the shape of the cross. The amazing thing is we all wondered how he understood the symbolic meaning of the cross so young. He did not accept the leftover pieces cut out in the process so bonus for chosen bread cutter of the day to design the cross. Bread benefits show flour and bread in a government survey has a great source of starch and provide us with fibre. Spiritually, the bread of life equips us to be sustained by God to endure with our Saviour Christ on the cross who redeems from sin and death.

In fact, the Bible tells us that this first prayer for earthly food, GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD has a deeper spiritual meaning. This shows the ways in which God feeds His people so teaches the importance to understand what it means to pray. God forgives as our debtors are forgiven. And God leads us not into temptation but deliver us from evil in Jesus name eternally. God’s abundant supplies bread more abundantly but man must not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of the Mouth of God. So bread helps nourish life but for the best value bread Glorifies God’s provision and reminds mankind to acknowledge and worship God the source of all grain and food.  In addition, people now create toasters of Jesus Toaster makes it possible to add Jesus on Cheese Toast with Jesus Sighting. In this Toast Do It Yourself Jesus Toaster Christianity has been taken to new level and given a new meaning to eat the daily bread of life.image, as using whole grain. Some feel blessed and loved by God every time they look at the face of Jesus imprinted on their bread. Another woman believes Jesus is always watching over her. She sees His vantage point heavenly face still visible in the bubbled and burned cheese, melted on top of a piece of loaf bread. God is Love is so great so the Bible tells us to to love Him with all our heat, mind and soul and love our neighbour as ourselves.
Creating various shapes is an excellent idea for parties or picnics to share the love of Jesus. Jesus is the bread for the world today so nurtures the mind, soul and spirit.  The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts so as part of the body of Christ so Christ lives in us in God and in Christ we live and move and have our being. This could be an excellent idea for parties or picnics to share the love of Jesus. Jesus is the bread for the world today so nurtures the mind, soul and spirit.  The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts so as part of the body of Christ so Christ lives in us in God and in Christ we live and move and have our being. This love of God is expressed naturally in this bread seen here.

It has been a busy time for the face of Christ recently, appearing on an iron, in a bruise, on a car window, now on a naan bread in a curry two slices of wholemeal by someone on a diet bread. So discovered that the face of Jesus was beautifully presented to me on one of the bread toasted. The face of Jesus appears in a slice of toast! I have kept the slice in a plastic bag to protect it. Among numerous appearances are 3 cheese pizzas resembling face of Christ at Posh Pizza’s in Brisbane, Australia by New Zealander who found Christ in toasted pita bread.

Various other shapes like smiles have appeared in bread and other  foods. So bread eaten in moderation with a healthy balanced diet is good for the body.  Picking up a supernatural soul food of bread of life has an even greater remarkable impact on life. So whether eating bread as part of a whole some meal or Eucharist communion, bread is endorsed by God. God Loves the world so much He Sent Jesus the bread of life to save, feed and nourish our lives, so enjoy.

So as the family enjoys unique bread basked from scratch bakery offered in a variety of hand made breads, pastries, cakes, pies and other baked goods remember that it God Who gives power to create and get wealth from His Natural resources provided. Thousands of years of Godly wisdom informs bakers of techniques still used today in the art of baking bread  steeped in tradition. A variety of menus from bread art menus include a list of some items produced in bread art by people or created supernaturally by God. Bread is delicious so God says taste and see fairly decent selections available.

PASTOR RAISED FROM DEATH

This is really a true story confirming the need to say ‘yes’ to Jesus. Many have done that, but when saying ‘yes’ to Jesus, we must say at the same time ‘no’ to sin. Otherwise, that ‘yes’ to Jesus is invalid. We cannot walk in two directions at the same time. If we do, we fool ourselves. That would be very terrible, like that pastor that was witnessed there. Say ‘yes’ to Jesus from the bottom of your heart and turn around from unrighteousness. Repent of your sins and receive forgiveness by the blood of Jesus Christ Then walk the path of righteousness. Whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Let’s pray together right now. Pray ‘Dear Lord Jesus, I say ‘yes’ to you and ‘no’ to sin. Forgive me of my sins. Wash me with your precious blood. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus. In Jesus name, amen.’ He said he saw no fire but saw people cannibalizing themselves. Every time they had done it, the flesh seemed to jump back to the same places and then the torment started again. He said it was so horrible. He came back and said, ‘Heaven is real, hell is real so become serious with God. You need to be saved by the blood of Jesus Christ and live a holy life.’ An angel took him to show him Paradise. He showed him the mansions that are waiting for the saints. And he showed him hell. He saw the people in hell. He said one shouted to him, ‘I was a pastor and I stole money. Help me to return the money.’ He said it was so frightening to him that the angel turned to him and said, ‘The prayer of the rich man in Luke 16 will now be fulfilled, and you will be sent back to earth as a last warning to this generation.’ ROBERTSON: For those who are not aware of that, in Luke 16 the rich man lifted up his eyes in torment and said, ‘I have a number of brothers. Let me go back and warn them.’ Father Abraham said, ‘No, they have Moses and the prophets. If they won’t believe them, they will not believe the one who rose from death. Now, God granted in this last day, prayer of rich man in Luke 16 to come back. The prayer of the rich man in Luke 16 is fulfilled as a last warning to this generation on earth to take God more seriously.’

BONNKE: He came back alive so people who see this video of Pastor Daniel Ekechukwu [Raised from the Dead] are getting saved by the thousands. I hear reports from across the world. It is such a powerful tool of evangelism and we are absolutely delighted. I wish I could have produced Pastor Daniel here today. His wife Mrs Ekechukwu Nneka, was one with a promise from God that women receive back the dead by resurrection. She stood firmly by faith on the word of God, believed so received her miracle in Jesus Name. She said, ‘My husband will come back, and I have heard Reinhard Bonnke is in Onitsha this Sunday I will bring him there. She brought him there. I was preaching and I knew nothing about it. Suddenly, the man started to breathe. His story is awesome and what he was shown while he was in eternity. All accused themselves. They didn’t blame anyone else. He said that they didn’t see the angel next to him. They only saw him and were calling for help. The angel turned around and said that Daniel would be connected to me and that through me this testimony would be spread across the whole world. Suddenly Daniel gasped for air in the church. He was there in the basement while I was preaching upstairs, ‘In the name of Jesus!’ It is awesome. I mean that story has covered Nigeria, Africa, and the world. He saw the saints worshipping. He said it was so wonderful he wanted to enter that place. My question to him was ‘Did you see Jesus?’ He said there was a white, bright light and all of those saints were worshiping and looking in that direction. He said, ‘I shaded my eyes, but my eyes could not penetrate it.’ Then he was taken to the mansions. He tried to describe the beauty of those mansions. He said, ‘Like, ‘My own television team that made that video said they could not sleep for three nights and everybody brought their lives up to standard, the standard of the Word of God. It brought a lot of heart searching.He was at my crusade. It was fantastic. I had him in Vienna. At the same time, while I had my meetings there, there was an esoteric convention there. When they heard that someone had come back from the dead, they love to hear the voices from the dead, so they said, ‘Can you not address us?’ He went to speak to them, preached, and made an altar call so 50 witches got saved. Glory to God for God is the same yesterday, today and forever.

5 SIGNS OF EMOTIONAL MAN

What is worse than an emotional woman? An emotional man. And having to deal with an emotional woman is already a hard enough task. How can you recognize an emotional man? Here goes five signs, among many others:

1. On the first or second date, he will already tell you some sad story about his childhood. Emotional men love to play the victim. That is why he will quickly share everything he’s been through, so you will see him as “poor little guy.”
2. You cell phone will ring, vibrate, flicker and beep every 15 seconds. Yes, it is him again. At times, just to tell you how he misses you since you left for work 10 minutes ago. At other times, to argue because you did not reply to the 358 messages he sent you before noon. (Emotional men, for some reason, are avid keyboard lovers.)
3. He gets into a bad mood faster than you can read this sentence. From out of nowhere. Everything was fine and then, suddenly it wasn’t. For no apparent reason. You even feel like looking into his eyes and saying, “I cast you out from this body!” You don’t understand what’s going on and you ask yourself, “What have I done this time?” Don’t worry, you haven’t done a thing. He is probably going through male PMS.
4. It is always your fault. Always. He lied, but it was because you would argue with him if he had told you the truth. He cheated, but it was because you rejected him first. He spent all the money, but only because he was so stressed out and really needed that new smartphone (to allow him to text you with double speed). If you had been calmer, more loving, friendlier, more understanding, and richer, he would not have acted like that. After all, “I love you very much” he will make sure to remind you of that.
5. His speeches make you think you married Aristotle. When an emotional man is truly inspired he can go for hours on end philosophizing, lecturing, complaining about everything from the evils of humanity to the colour of your nail polish and woe is you if he notices you are not paying attention. Just because of that you get extra 2 hour earful because he is rude, impatient and unwilling to accept that you cannot bend over backwards to meet his every whim. So needs to grow up, learn to mature and perhaps combat his sense of entitlement to respect and value you more.

If you are an emotional man, you must acknowledge the disadvantages of being that way and how hard it makes having to deal with you. I am not saying that there is no positive aspects to that, nor that you are a bad person. I am only pointing out that there are people around who observe you and relate with you somehow. If you recognize where you are forcing it, you’re up to a good start.

Leaving the humour aside, all these signs are true, especially if more than one is present. Here, I am discussing more about the problem than the solution. That is because every solution starts with the recognition that there is a problem. If you are a woman in a relationship with an emotional man, you must also acknowledge the problem in order to figure out what you are going to do about it. If you’re not married yet, the first and safest tip is: Get out while you still can! If you are single and you are wondering if you should date a man like that, why on Earth would you bring that upon yourself?

Now, if you are married to one, fast and pray, dear friend. Any other tip that I may find out, I promise I’ll let you know. The man is the head of the home, so if insecure and emotionally unhealthy attention seeking, can he really lead the family? We all need to express emotions appropriately so this article is talking about self-confidence and emotional maturity.

CALL FOR HELP

Call for help to reclaim joy of parenthood hood because focus and full attention shifts imperatively from the couple to the new infant at the centre of the family. This means guests are calling, family and friends visiting with presents, church leaders, loved ones, friends, colleagues, etc. Within these few days the family endures stress of sleepless nights despite pressure to go to work regardless. Soon, heaps of laundry pile up unwashed laundry not ironed, the house no longer pristine like a show room, home not cleaned, food not made properly any more. With constant crying of the baby or babies, and siblings tagging at parents skirts and trousers for affection, hugs, nappy changes, meals and playing with them. The home becomes so chaotic to see the little ones running riot as the parents blame and resent each other for incompetence and inefficiency. The couple let themselves get into rows due to the tensions and the sometimes the overwhelmed mother lets her looks and shape slide down hill. This is because the last on her mind is her appearance. When this happens she may be busy feeding baby on call as baby demands and expressing milk for help in the night to get a few hours sleep. The woman’s delightful looks may go out the window as she is barely able to contain milk flow soaking constantly her garments. Join a mother’s or father’s toddler group when a new baby is born.Marriage changes a woman’s career and she ends up with children more of as extra baggage so has more to lose. Therefore there is no need to rush into marriage as women now live longer so prepare for the future first by establishing a career. Life is not a competition even if all your mates already have children and you feel left out. Many secretly wish they could undo their lives and do things better. So the couple may be in shock with regard to the intense hectic demands they find themselves in. Seemingly controlled by small children now wonder how to make the marriage or the family last. Even at the worst times remember there are people who cannot have children and see how blessed one is to have children. At each stage, even though there are many challenges, remind yourselves that children are blessings from God. Family life is a dynamic journey of one great big adventure so embrace with thankfulness to God. The pressure continues to mount if they do not recognise need to call for help without guilty feelings of failure. The couple cannot live as if still single before having children. Life changes drastically with child care, cooking, cleaning, laundry not solely woman’s job. Single life partying is over without friends or work colleagues to talk to at home all day long with infant totally dependent on you.No more addiction to interactive computer games competitions on-line. You cannot expect the child to conform to your previous  single lifestyle. By saying I do, it means adiós to selfishness, sacrifice and taking on extra responsibility for their lives. You do not have a child to make you happy because your life in unfilled. Real hands on child raising is intense responsibility to provide for yourself and your family. Transitions into a father or mother coupled with hormones imbalances affects mood swings. So do not expect to recover after birth as if you are still the single childless person you use to be. Do frustrate yourself for inability to keep on top of life as before having children. Having family brings drastic physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, career changes affecting the couple. Things get worse with underlying financial issues so both parents may suffer paternal and maternal post partum depression affecting the children’s development and marital relationship. Some new mothers are suffering in silence from postnatal depression with many not speaking up for fear of having their children taken away. A responsible single man maintains own home and does chores before marriage yet works full – time. Therefore, it is not exclusive job of his wife to be expected to take over looking after the husband. Even if his mother perhaps left of nannying him as an adult son, grown man encouraged totally to be dependent on mother. He is now a father with dependent children needing his input so cannot think marriage is all about his needs only.He must understand the true meaning of love to give and receive in the relationship. In addition, an emotional man expects the woman to fulfil all his needs, care alone for his children, run the home perfectly and ensure the home remains a show room 24/7. The children are not allowed to feel at home to enjoy the treated as property to remain in perfect condition in case of selling it. So life in the home is constantly like walking on egg shells. One has to thread carefully not to cause him to explode. In such tense atmosphere the man is permanently angry, hard to please, perhaps abuses wife and children physically. If so, do not be wrapped in red tape getting caught up in a problem or trouble needing rescue refusing to be freed from tangled mess.On the other hand, despite having children some immature women demand that constantly remain the centre of attention. Therefore they expect the husband to run after them 24/7 and be thankful they agreed to settle down with him. So demand gratitude and appreciation for marrying such a person like herself. She expects to remain queen as the centre of the universe in the relationship insisting the man does all the chores while she is always on the phone, face book, twitter, on-line talking to her friends and followers or shopping on-line.

Although, she may or not work, she lives as if she is still single, seeking to remain independent and requiring man to take on jobs she feels beneath her status. The man unaware endorses such abusive patterns of trophy wife behaviour, carries on dutifully to the annoyance of friends and family. He does all the shopping, cleaning, cooking, caring for children and works full-time. His greatest fear is asking for support or submission from her means divorce. So husband soldiers doggedly for the sake of his children. She talks to him anyhow worse than she would talk to even their children. She is possessive of him so deprives him of friends and family because without him she claims she cannot function. She runs down family budget on expensive make up, beauty products, designer clothes, luxury bags and shoes but the rent, mortgage, family needs are not first met. She lives in own bubble and strongly believes she is perfect so no one dare challenge her. Despite luxurious surroundings, life is chaotic and nobody in the premises seems happy. To the outside world and the church they are the perfect couple, yet underneath lurks pain and hurts. Eventually, the family calls for help with regard to redressing issues.

After observing each person’s role in the home, the picture becomes clearer. Then the process begins to work together to resolve underlying issues. A couple’s personalities, backgrounds, attitudes to life, perceived roles of men and women in marriage surface in therapy sessions. As a family unit, one has to recreate new hybrid version of what is best for family. Whatever may have worked in the past in your own childhood may not always be best for your adult home or new family. Compromise is necessary and essential because verbal communication accounts for only 10% of life. This means, things said or promised verbally is not enough to consolidate relationship to run family effectively. Call for help to understand marriage commitment, impact of raising children on love feelings, intimacy, personal interests, romance, overcoming hardships together, enduring difficulties, sacrifices. Children need therefore merely buying expensive toys alone will not do the job. Children need stimulation and interaction from birth throughout childhood. Shoving them in front of TV, computer games, will not solve problem. Instead they will experience stunted emotional growth in a bubble. Life is better when children learn from early years from parent’s practical life skills. Children kept for hours alone in bedrooms with gadgets lack social skills. So it important to invest precious time into upbringing to talk to the children play with them, roll on the floor with them, play football, handball, tennis, basketball, music or write songs with them. Activities must not focus on perfection to follow a particular style, just enjoy family times. The best form of communication is not through 10% words but 90% actions of love is doing little things that does not cost money. Giving consistently affection, love, hugs, smiles, appreciation, gratitude, respect, unique card made by you, encouraging supportive good attitude, cooking, caring for each other and children, cleaning home, garbage, constitute real true love.

The ultimate goal is to bond with them early in positive playful but firm manner. Having children does not mean the end of a parent’s world. Children enrich your lives by giving love unconditionally to draw the best out of you to be more patient, tolerant, forgiving, kind and generous. Do not be selfish and so treat them as a nuisance that robs your personal freedom and personal life. Remember you chose to marry, to have children or engage in acts that result naturally in children according to God’s plan. So do not blame, accuse or punish them for ruining your life. Do not resent them for turning your world upside down because you did it to yourself.  The good news is children grow up faster than you expect. Sooner than later they leave you as stewards entrusted by God for a season. You can always reconstruct your life in a new dimension because life is dynamic. It is never too late to learn, train, do new things, achieve personal goals put on hold for your children’s sake. Do not be jealous, vengeful, bitter, resentful of innocent joy and laughter of your children.  Do not be ashamed to get help if you feel too stressed, sad, isolated, harbouring dark thoughts, about to cross dangerous lines of hurting your children to ‘solve’ family problems. Do not let pride, ego, anger damage relationship to destroy yourself and family. Asking for help is the right thing to do to save lives so it is not weakness. You face consequences for life if deprived children of loving parents. Above all, you are accountable to God for His children entrusted to you to love and treat well.
