Enough was enough

ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH The moment I knew things had to change

CALL it determination, call it foolish — whatever it is that keeps persons hanging on to a bad situation, position or person despite the toll it is taking on them physically and emotionally.

Monday, March 10, 2014    

WASHINGTON, USA (AFP) — One 29-year-old woman says it helped her take revenge on her unfaithful husband. A 45-year-old married man says it has helped prevent the break-up of his family. For millions, adultery via the Internet has become the new normal. Since the launch of the Canada-based Ashley Madison website in 2002, which created a sensation with its seductive slogan "Life is short, have an affair", the numbers turning to online infidelity have soared. There are now dozens of simil ... Read More

Get bigger breasts and a butt

By NADINE WILSON All Woman writer | Monday, March 10, 2014    

IT'S the desire of many women to have voluptuous butts and perky boobs without having to deal with an expanded mid-section in the process. And perhaps capitalising on these desires, manufacturers have never been short on products that promise to make these a reality. However, consultant general, laparoscopic and obesity surgeon Dr Alfred Dawes said that there is not much women can do to naturally increase their cup size and fairly little options exists to get large buttocks. "Your breast size ... Read More

Barefaced 'Bun'

BY DONNA HUSSEY-WHYTE | Monday, March 10, 2014    

MANY stories have been told of cheaters who have been blatant in dipping into other people's cups, right under the noses of the unsuspecting partners. In fact, some of the more popular stories surround the 'cousin', who more likely than not will be accepted by the partner, until it is realised that the 'cousin' isn't a family member at all. "One story that always comes up at our family gatherings is about my aunt whose 'cousin' would always visit her in his bread van while my uncle was at work ... Read More

Richer women have better sex

By NADINE WILSON All Woman writer | Monday, March 10, 2014    

RICHER women often have better access to education, jobs and wardrobes, and now the experts suggest that they are having much better sex lives than those at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder. According to the recent analysis of the first Spanish Sexual Health Survey that was carried out by researchers at Barcelona's Public Health Agency, socioeconomic factors do affect sexual satisfaction. "People of a lower socioeconomic status claim to be less satisfied sexually, which especially appli ... Read More

He came to my door and I let him in

With Wayne Powell MA Counselling Psychology Relationship Counsellor | Monday, March 10, 2014    

Dear Counsellor, Last June I met a man and we started a relationship. He told me that he was living with someone but that he liked me and we could try to work together. At the time I had just ended a two and a half year relationship and needed the distraction to help me through it. A couple months into the relationship I decided that the lifestyle was not going to work for me and asked him to leave me alone. He complied for about a week while still texting and calling. I didn't answer or retu ... Read More

Constipated...

By Donovan Grant | Monday, March 10, 2014    

Constipation is a condition of the digestive system, where bowel motion becomes irregular. The person will have difficulty passing stool. Although constipation might seem like a trivial matter, it is actually a dangerous situation and in your case, must be treated right now. Constipation occurs due to the accumulation of faeces and partially digested foods in the intestines. This generally attracts a lot of bacteria and other micro-organisms. The breakdown of the faeces and other substances in ... Read More

When a child speaks...

BY DONNA HUSSEY-WHYTE | Monday, March 10, 2014    

MANY times when children try to speak to their parents or other adults, they are brushed aside, ignored, shushed and told that mommy or daddy is busy now and will get back to them later. However, later many times never comes. This neglect often leads to them getting advice from the wrong persons, or in some cases, proves harmful. "I remember as a nine-year-old trying to tell my mother how ill I was feeling, but my grandmother told her I was lazy and only wanted to avoid work," 40-year-old Meli ... Read More
