There is no person in this world that is in a happy healthy loving relationship that needs stimulation on a routine bases from another person if they are in a happy healthy loving relationship. If you find you seek from another that you are not getting from your partner or you see they need it from you or another.... you better reevaluate your relationship with them and your partner. Don't get me wrong we all have "friends" that we enjoy doing things with or talking with. One should check themselves if it goes beyond that.
Clue: if you find you need to talk to somebody a lot more then your partner....you might want to ask yourself why.
Clue: if you find that somebody needs to talk to you a lot and they are in a relationship .... you might want to ask yourself why.
Now don't get me wrong. If there are cercomstances then don't be concerned, helping with their problem...setting up a party say or they are having hard time with something. But if something doesn't seem right, it probably isn't.
Trust me alot of times you are not aware of it because it seems innocent.
In my opinion... no person in a healthy loving relationship needs craves attention from others constantly unless they are NOT getting something from there partner. Think about it for a moment. And the light bulb will come on. RED FLAG.
How do we determine?
Ask yourself how much time do I spend talking to them. What is the conversation about, And if I was in there shoes....what would be my reaction if I found my partner or my friends partner, needed to talk or do things all the time with somebody else. And if im in a relationship am I hiding it? If they are in a relationship are they hiding it? If you answer yes.... hummmmm.
Now there are exceptions to the rules. And one has to evaluate the situation. This is Just food for thought.
NO PERSON in a happy loving relationship needs outside stimulation from another individual on a routine bases if they are TRULY in a happy loving relationship. I don't care what they tell you or you tell them.
Yes...im sure people will argue the point well I love talking to my friends and like to go out and do things with them on a ”ROUTINE” bases and not have my partner ALWAYS with. I never said ALWAYS.... but if you....ALWAYS seek elsewhere.... you might want to reevaluate your relationship. Like I said in my opinion.
The Mind that Never Sleeps.
Enjoy my thoughts and discussions. All are welcome to add his or her opinion. The mind is a terrible thing to waste. I figured it was time for you all to get a glimps of my mind. No topic is untouchable. Enter and read at your own risk. Careful you may learn something or atleast I may make you think. If you dont agree with something I said please give me your opinion. If you can back it with facts even better. Enjoy!!

The Pursuit of Happiness: 15 Lessons to Keep in Mind
The Pursuit of Happiness: 15 Lessons to Keep in Mind
1. The only person that can ever truly make you happy is yourself. Stop depending on everyone else.
2. People lie, stuff happens. Don’t take it too personally.
3. Want people to think you’re amazing? Start believing you are, and then they will too.
4. Smiling is the ultimate anti-depressant. Smile and laugh out loud, it doesn’t look stupid, I promise.
5. The world is never just black and white, right or wrong, one way or another. Try and see things from as many points of view as possible.
6. "Let everything happen to you
Beauty and terror
Just keep going
No feeling is final"
— Rainer Maria Rilke
7. Have empathy.
8. Gossip, problems of the past, events you cannot control, negative thoughts and negative people; time spent on these is time poorly wasted.
9. When you're jealous or find yourself filled with hate for someone/something, stop. The only person its hurting is you.
10. Although the newest, most expensive material things may make you feel as if you’re a better person, they won’t hold you at night or listen to you when you need it. Make sure your priorities make sense.
11. Step outside your comfort zone- it’s when you’ll really feel alive.
12. Don’t be afraid to be yourself, the people who really matter, don’t mind
13. Let your emotions out sometimes, humans have them for a reason.
14. Celebrate the things you have. Think only positively of the things you don’t (but would like to have) and they too will come.
15. Love unconditionally ♥.
I was trying to find a good way to say alot of these. Figure why change what is already ben writen.

Stress
When life gets stressful, we often forget the things we should remember, and remember the things we should forget.
Here are 75 reminders to help motivate you when you need it most.
Tough times never last, but tough people do.
- Robert H. Schuller
1.You never know how strong you really are until being strong is the only choice you have.
2.Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
3.You cannot change what you refuse to confront.
4.Nobody is perfect, and nobody deserves to be perfect. Nobody has it easy. You never know what people are going through. Every one of us has issues. So don’t belittle yourself or anyone else. Everybody is fighting their own unique war.
5.Crying doesn’t indicate that you’re weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you’re alive and full of potential.
6.No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying. (Read Unstoppable.)
7.Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.
8.Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Let it go.
9.Making one person smile can change the world. Maybe not the whole world, but their world. Start small. Start now.
10.Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see things clearly.
11.Never let success get to your head, and never let failure get to your heart.
12.You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life.
13.Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.
14.You can learn great things from your mistakes when you aren’t busy denying them.
15.Give up worrying about what others think of you. What they think isn’t important. What is important is how you feel about yourself.
16.When you stop chasing the wrong things you give the right things a chance to catch you.
17.When other people treat you poorly, keep being you. Don’t ever let someone else’s bitterness change the person you are.
18.You have to accept that some things will never be yours, and learn to appreciate the things that are only yours.
19.Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who’s struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied, or barely getting by. But that feeling is a lie. And if you just hold on, someone will find you and help make it better. Because we all need a little help sometimes – someone to help us hear the music in our world. To remind us that it won’t always be this way. That someone is out there right now.
20.Don’t be afraid to move out of your comfort zone. Some of your best life experiences and opportunities will transpire only after you dare to lose.
21.Sometimes we accidentally allow small problems to escalate and dominate our lives. If we get overcharged a few cents, it is irritating, but don’t let it ruin your day. There will always be small issues that irritate us; the secret is to be able to give them the miniscule level of importance they deserve.
22.Giving up doesn’t always mean you’re weak, sometimes it means you are strong enough and smart enough to let go. (Read The Dip.)
23.Ask yourself whether each of your relationships drags you down or lifts you up. Surrounding yourself with positive, loving people is half the battle of living a happy, successful life.
24.Spend more time with those who make you smile and less time with those who you feel pressured to impress.
25.There are few joys in life that equal a good conversation, a good read, a good walk, a good hug, a good smile, or a good friend.
26.Don’t dwell on the past or worry about the future for too long. Right now is life. Live it.
27.No matter how cautiously you choose your words, someone will always twist them around and misinterpret what you say. So just say what you need to say.
28.In order to be creative, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
29.Not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of good luck.
30.To be great does not mean you have to dominate others. It means you have to dominate your own potential.
31.If you are passionate about something, pursue it, no matter what anyone else thinks. That’s how dreams are achieved.
32.If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting.
33.Forgiveness is one of the primary keys to happiness.
34.The best revenge is happiness, because nothing drives your adversaries more insane than seeing you smile.
35.Stay positive when negativity surrounds you. Smile when others frown. It’s an easy way to make a difference.
36.If a person wants to be a part of your life, they will make an obvious effort to do so. Don’t bother reserving a space in your heart for people who do not make an effort to stay.
37.Don’t regret intimate relationships that don’t work out. Because they will only help you find the right partner for you, and better appreciate them for everything they do and everything they are.
38.What lies before us and behind us are tiny matters when compared to what lies within us.
39.The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists. It rewards people who get things done. And the only way to get things done is to be imperfect 99% of the time.
40.Never lie – not even a white lie! When you steer away from the truth, you steer away from your soul. Be honest, be real and tell the truth. This awareness forces you to make better choices and be a stronger person.
41.Feelings, good and bad, always come and go.
42.Don’t get caught up in wasted potential from years past. Potential is all we ever have.
43.We are not alone. No matter how bizarre or embarrassed or pathetic we feel about our own situation, there will be others out there experiencing the same emotions. When you hear yourself say “I am all alone,” it is your mind trying to sell you a lie so you will continue to feel sorry for yourself.
44.It is okay to be angry. It is never okay to be cruel.
45.Don’t pray when it rains if you don’t pray when the sun shines.
46.Mistakes teach you important lessons. Every time you make one, you’re one step closer to your goal. The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake.
47.Money is a renewable resource. If you lose some money, don’t sweat it. You can always make more. However, if you spend valuable time stressing over money, or lost opportunity, you’ll never get that time back. Time is more valuable than money – time is the greatest constituent of life.
48.Never let people know that they got to you. Ignore them. Hold your head up high and pretend all their negative remarks don’t even phase you, and someday they actually won’t.
49.There is nothing to hold you back except you. And there is only one question to ask yourself: “What would you do if you were not afraid?” Think about it.
50.Life is way more enjoyable when you stop trying to be cool and simply focus on being yourself.
51.It’s often hard to tell just how close you are to success.
52.When you spend time worrying, you’re simply using your imagination to create things you don’t want.
53.No matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should be. Either you succeed or you learn something. Win-Win.
54.You must see things how they are instead of how you hoped, wished, or expected them to be.
55.Even when you feel like you have nothing, someone else likely has far less. Find them and help them. You’ll see why.
56.Laughter is the best medicine for stress. Laugh at yourself often. Find the humor in whatever situation you’re in.
57.If you want to feel rich, just count all the great things you have that money can’t buy.
58.Forgiving yourself is far more important than getting others to forgive you.
59.If you awake every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today, and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.
60.You can press forward long after you can’t. It’s just a matter of wanting it bad enough.
61.It’s not about getting a chance, it’s about taking a chance. You’ll rarely be 100% sure it will work. But you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Sometimes you just have to go for it!
62.If it were easy everyone would do it. This is why get rich quick schemes will never be true. If it was so quick and easy then everyone would be millionaires. Accomplishing great things is hard work, but well worth it.
63.Notice and cherish life’s surprises. Just because it’s not what you were expecting, doesn’t mean it’s not everything you’ve been waiting for.
64.Be vulnerable. Allow yourself to feel, to be open and authentic. Tear down any emotional brick walls you have built around you and feel every exquisite emotion, both good and bad. This is real life. This is how you welcome new opportunities.
65.You must create and look for opportunities. Opportunities rarely ever come knocking on the door of someone who’s not seeking them. You have to create and seek opportunities for yourself. You have to take the initiative to get the ball rolling and the doors opening.
66.If it’s out of your control, why fret about it? Concentrating on things you can control is how you make good things happen.
67.Saying “no” to right people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to right opportunities. (Read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.)
68.No matter how much progress you make there will always be the people who insist that whatever you’re trying to do is impossible. Or they may incessantly suggest that the idea or dream as a whole is utterly ridiculous because nobody really cares. When you come across these people, don’t try to reason with them. Instead, forget that they exist. They will only waste your time and energy.
69.If you spend 80% of your time focusing on the problem and only 20% on the solution, what do you think is going to happen?
70.No matter how badly you think your life may be going, or how messed up you think you are, there is at least one thing you are doing right in your life or you wouldn’t be alive reading this.
71.A problem is a chance for you to learn.
72.The greatest struggle is to be something different from what the average man is.
73.In times of great stress, it’s always wise to keep busy, to plow your anger and frustration into something positive.
74.One thing is for sure: Regardless of the situation, life goes on.
75.Everyone wants a perfect ending. But over the years I’ve learned that some of the best poems don’t rhyme, and many great stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, embracing change, and taking a moment and making the best of it without knowing what’s going to happen next.
Oh, and…
You wanna know who’s awesome? Read the first word of this line again.

61.It’s not about getting a chance, it’s about taking a chance. You’ll rarely be 100% sure it will work. But you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Sometimes you just have to go for it!
62.If it were easy everyone would do it. This is why get rich quick schemes will never be true. If it was so quick and easy then everyone would be millionaires. Accomplishing great things is hard work, but well worth it.
63.Notice and cherish life’s surprises. Just because it’s not what you were expecting, doesn’t mean it’s not everything you’ve been waiting for.
64.Be vulnerable. Allow yourself to feel, to be open and authentic. Tear down any emotional brick walls you have built around you and feel every exquisite emotion, both good and bad. This is real life. This is how you welcome new opportunities.
65.You must create and look for opportunities. Opportunities rarely ever come knocking on the door of someone who’s not seeking them. You have to create and seek opportunities for yourself. You have to take the initiative to get the ball rolling and the doors opening.
66.If it’s out of your control, why fret about it? Concentrating on things you can control is how you make good things happen.
67.Saying “no” to right people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to right opportunities. (Read The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.)
68.No matter how much progress you make there will always be the people who insist that whatever you’re trying to do is impossible. Or they may incessantly suggest that the idea or dream as a whole is utterly ridiculous because nobody really cares. When you come across these people, don’t try to reason with them. Instead, forget that they exist. They will only waste your time and energy.
69.If you spend 80% of your time focusing on the problem and only 20% on the solution, what do you think is going to happen?
70.No matter how badly you think your life may be going, or how messed up you think you are, there is at least one thing you are doing right in your life or you wouldn’t be alive reading this.
71.A problem is a chance for you to learn.
72.The greatest struggle is to be something different from what the average man is.
73.In times of great stress, it’s always wise to keep busy, to plow your anger and frustration into something positive.
74.One thing is for sure: Regardless of the situation, life goes on.
75.Everyone wants a perfect ending. But over the years I’ve learned that some of the best poems don’t rhyme, and many great stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, embracing change, and taking a moment and making the best of it without knowing what’s going to happen next.
