Dose Facebook have a negative effective on your relationship status

Does Facebook have a negative effective on your relationship status?

With constant new Facebook apps making the social networking site easier then ever to update, a new divorce survey reveals this could be the reason behind your relationship break-up. 

There’s more bad news for Facebook fans as a new survey by Divorce online has found the social networking site contributes to a third of all divorces. So not only is social networking making us anti-social and damaging our health, now it’s the cause of our relationship breakdowns? We think Facebook has a lot to answer for…

FACEBOOK AND TWITTER: THE ANTI-SOCIAL NETWORKS?

The survey results coincidentally came in as Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg updated his relationship status to‘married’ this week, so we suggest you take note Mr. Zuckerberg!

IS IT OK TO CHECK YOUR MAN’S FACEBOOK?

According to the study, 33% of divorces last year detailed Facebook in the proceedings, and number that has risen from 20% in 2009. Inappropriate messages to the opposite sex came in as the biggest complaint, with suspicious status updates, odd check-ins and incriminating photo uploads also the reason behind most break-ups.

GUIDE TO THE BEST APPS EVER!

“If someone wants to have an affair or flirt with the opposite sex then Facebook is the easiest place to do it,' says Mark Keenan, Divorce-Online spokesman. “People need to be careful what they write on their walls as the courts are seeing these posts being used in financial disputes and children cases as evidence.”

The arguing doesn’t stop there either. According to the study, once the divorce is complete, partners are likely to take to Facebook to vent about their exes. I’m sure we can all relate to that one can’t we?

HOW TO HANDLE A BREAK-UP GRACEFULLY

Twitter however is revelaed as the nicer of the social network sites with only 20 petitions of the 5,000 analysed mentioning it for reason of divorce.

So Facebook seems to be a detonator for divorce and break-ups but how do you feel about this? Is Facebook really toblame or as these relationships doomed anyway? Let us know your thoughts in the box below

Raunchy roleplay

Dressing up as a character from your wildest sex fantasy can feel pretty damn good..but what if you're feeling a little self-conscious to get things started? Andy_most_pandy gives great advice on conquering pre-roleplay nerves…
"Dress up and get into character well before you get down to business. For example, you could be the sexy secretary (specs, white blouse, pencil skirt, tights and heels.) Start downstairs and get him to dictate a letter to you. Then after a bit bring up the fact that you want a raise in your salary. That's when he suggests that you go upstairs to discuss terms. The thing is, you have to live the part. Be his sexy secretary.." Sounds like fun!

Don't stress if he can't get it up every time

So you're getting hot and heavy in the bedroom - until he can't get it up. Then what do you do? According to Bluebell_91 the trick is to relax.


"You just have to support him through it but try not to draw too much attention to it. Don't spend ages comforting him about it after it happens, just give him a cuddle and move on. Try your best not to keep discussing it with him because it will make him feel even more anxious,   which will lead to a vicious cycle. Things will soon get back to normal!"

Have fun on top

Some of the ladies in our forums have complained they find it difficult to have sex on top. But Andcar has a few tips to share: "Lube can be your best friend! The more lubricated you are, the easier it is to do girl-on-top. Try climbing on top of him when he is sitting and easing yourself onto him, as this angle is slightly easier. Also being relaxed is important, because nerves can cause tightness and that makes it very difficult. So breathe, use lube, and have fun!" Great advice…

It's the motion in the ocean…

If the size of your guy's penis is a little smaller than you'd hope for, don't let it ruin your sex life. Mia_Atonia_S suggests a few sex positions that can help you reach the big 'O':
"Some positions may help enhance friction against the G Spot. You on top facing him with the angle of his penis entering upwards towards your belly. Doggie style again with the angle of the penis entering you towards your belly. The G Spot is about two inches inside your vagina on its upper wall.

Mutual masturbation

Does he love watching porn? How about you watch porn together, for mind-blowing sex? Cosmo forum user Mia_Antonia_S says:


"Watch porn and masturbate together. Probably initially each one will touch his/her self, which may lead to touching one another, and surely to sex." Saucy

Blow his mind with the perfect blow job

Going down on your man may not be everybody's cup of tea - but oral sex can definitely be made more pleasurable for you. Misslisey has a fab tip - just treat his manhood like a sweet treat…


"Treat it like a lollipop! Suck hard, suck soft and the best is to roll your tongue around it so the under part of your tongue is massaging the tip ( u know not the top part where the tastes buds are but under aha) now for being turned on yourself. Your man is completely turned on. You'll have complete control over him what could be a bigger turn on then that?"

Reassure him when he's hitting the right spots

Everybody needs reassurance from time to time, and even more so in bed. He secretly wants to know that he is pleasing you, so why not let reassure him and let him know when he is?

Follow Cosmo's forum user Paynebyname's advice:
"Guys like to be reassured/reminded that when they do things to you that they are great at it and you are loving it (obviously they might not be the best but just go with it). Similarly when a girl is fooling around with a guy, giving head for instance, they want to know  that you are actually enjoying it rather than just doing it because you feel you should. A moan of pleasure here and there can go a very long way…" We couldn't agree more.

Surprise him…sexually

If your sex life is become a bit of a routine, here is an exciting way to add some variety. Sammyharb recommends a treat of sexual favours…
For one week (or how ever long you'd like!) make little envelope of sexual favours for him to pull out and use whenever he wishes. Keep each sexual favour a secret so it will really surprise him when you transform into a sex goddess, just for him…

Seek a sexual adventure

If you are yearning for your man to be more adventurous with sex perhaps you would both benefit from subtle hints. How about following Lynie89's advice, who suggests leaving your boyfriend a note telling him what you'd like to try? You can be as detailed as you like - and if you live together, perhaps writing your message with magnetic letters on the fridge will give him a lovely surprise in the morning…

Game playing

Cosmo forum user Becky92 suggests a fun game which is likely to leave him wanting to rip your clothes off and make you feel so empowered! The rules? No touching…
"Some of the best foreplay I've ever experienced stems from the 'no touching' game. You can do anything you want to your guy but he's not allowed to touch you - the best part is being able to tease him for absolutely ages. Naturally he'll return the favour - it's a great way to bond in the bedroom."

4 Things You Do That Kill Her Sex Drive

There’s a reason why you and your wife of 20 years don’t ravage each other anymore, and it isn’t for your lack of trying. According to a new study in the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy, women in a committed relationship report lower levels of sexual desire over time—a .02 percent decrease every month—while a guy’s desire stays the same. (Yet another reason to start with a lusty woman to begin with!)

“Some research suggests that somewhere between 6 and 30 months, relationships switch from passionate to compassionate—more affectionate than ripping each other’s clothes off,” says lead study author Robin Milhausen, Ph.D., a sex researcher at the University of Guelph in Ontario.

So are you to blame for her lack of lust? Not necessarily, Milhausen says. “For women with a lower sex drive in the first place, the switch to a deeper emotional bond may reduce some of the excitement associated with sex in new relationships.”

Still, you’re not exactly helping matters. We asked several sex experts to shed light on the worst things you do around the house and in the sack that turn her off. Vow to never commit the following mood-killers again—try to Banish These Bad Habits, too—and your sex life will suffer no more.

1. Ignoring Her Appearance“Guys in long-term relationships tend to stop noticing when their partner looks pretty, and so much of female sexual desire is tied to a sense of self-esteem,” says Ian Kerner, Ph.D., sex counselor and author of She Comes First. The fix here is simple: Pay her a few simple compliments every day, like letting her know she’s sexy, Kerner says.

2. Putting Her Under PressureDon’t worry or question her about getting orgasms, says Marnia Robinson, author of Cupid’s Poisoned Arrow. Stay relaxed and focused on playful touching, she advises. “This means no performance pressure on either of you. Let whatever happens happen in its own time—or not. Good sex is about connection and sensual satisfaction, not number of orgasms produced.” And here’s a nice added benefit to staying calm: “The relaxation is good for erections,” says Robinson.

3. Using Porn As a BenchmarkIt’s good to keep the sex hot—but it’s more important to keep it real. In other words, forget that cool move you caught on XTube.  ”Just because you saw a sexual practice in a film doesn’t mean it’s safe or satisfying,” says Robinson.  And it might not even be something she’s into. “If you need extreme stimulation to perform with a partner, you may want to cut back on overstimulation. A desensitized brain can also find sex less arousing. As you restore your brain to normal sensitivity, regular sex behaviors become enjoyable again.” Time to rediscover the wonders of the missionary position.

4. Leaving Her Lips HangingAs men get comfortable in a relationship, their approach to foreplay tends to focus on the moments leading up to sex, says Kerner. “But female desire doesn’t operate like a light switch that turns on and off—it’s more like a dimmer,” he says. Small acts of intimacy like hugging and kissing can get her in the mood. But don’t get antsy: “Don’t expect her to be immediately turned on,” Kerner says.

Charles Taylor’s army: Nigerian recounts ordeal in their hands

Nigerian recounts ordeal in hands of Charles Taylor’s army

A Nigerian, David Anyaele who lost both hands during the Sierra Leone-Liberia war, recounts the events that led to the war and the treatments of Nigerians by former Liberia President, Charles Taylor.

Mr Anyaele who spoke as a guest in Diplomatic Channels – A Channels Television programme, said that while he begged the rebels to spare his hands, the rebels insisted on chopping off both of his hands saying “it is only when the Nigerian government sees my two hands chopped off that they will know that we are serious.”

Does Your Wife Drive You Crazy?

You're not annoying, you're endearing!

Talk about a win-win:Believing in your partner’s ability to change won’t just help her do it—it’ll also make you happier with your relationship, suggests a new study of couples in the journalPersonality and Social Psychology Bulletin.

In a series of experiments, people who said their partner was capable of self-improvement ranked their relationship quality more positively and felt more secure in their union than those who didn’t think that change was going to happen. This held true even for those who thought their partner could be doing more to boost his or her interpersonal skills.

“People who believe that their partner is capable of change are more likely to see their partner’s efforts in a positive light,” says study author Chin Ming Hui, a graduate student in Psychology at Northwestern University. (Need a place to start? Read 20 Little Changes for a Healthier Life.) On the other hand, if you don’t think that change is possible, you’re more likely to ignore those efforts and dwell on her less desirable traits.

The good news: Even if being a relationship optimist isn’t in your nature, you can still use the study’s findings to make things better at home. (Learn how to Make Monogamy Hot.) “Try to deliberately detect and appreciate subtle improvements that are happening in the relationship,” Hui says. For instance, recognize that she diffuses a fight before it picks up or takes a moment to see things from your point of view.

3 Ways to Last Longer In Bed

by Madeline Haller February 21, 2012, 04:00 am EST

Could Viagra help you last longer in bed? The latest research published in theJournal of Sexual Medication seems to think so.

Researchers reviewed 14 studies that monitored the effects phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors—drugs for erectile dysfunction like Viagra and Levitra—had on men who experience premature ejaculation (PE). Eleven of the studies showed medication helped extend the length of the time they could go before reaching orgasm.

To perform during your big debut, practice makes perfect.

So does this mean that science has found the magic pill for helping you go all night? Not exactly.

The researchers stress that although this correlation was found, it’s hard to determine whether or not the ED medication was actually responsible for the delay in orgasm since a majority of the studies did not compare the results against a placebo.

If you’re looking to buy some time before reaching climax, rather than hitting up your doctor for meds, check out the following tips.

Stop-Start Technique
You need to get used to building your arousal to where you’re almost at that point of no return, says Debby Herbenick, Ph.D., sex researcher at Indiana University and author of Great in Bed. Start stimulation, but as soon as you feel you’re getting too aroused, simply pause for a brief moment—Herbenick recommends 5 to 10 seconds—and let your arousal subside. After repeating this technique a few times, feel free to release.

Squeeze Technique
As soon as you feel you’re getting close, stop stimulation and squeeze right below the head of your penis, says Herbenick. It’s best to focus the pressure on the urethra—the tube running along the underside of the penis—because this will temporarily represses your ejaculatory response. Once your arousal has died down, repeat a few more times before reaching climax, says Herbenick.

-->

Rely On Rubbers Another useful technique for pushing back your ejaculatory response is to wear a desensitizing condom, says Herbenick. These products contain the desensitizing lubricant benzocaine, so it will buy you a few more minutes in the sack. But something to keep in mind: Make sure you’re not putting the condom on inside out, otherwise the Benzocaine will end up inside her vagina, says Herbenick. (And if you’re still searching for other alternatives to battle this buzz kill, check out our feature on additional ways to treat PE.)

It's one of those weird anatomical-arboreal coincidences: The human prostate is about the size and shape of a walnut. But what if it really were a walnut? For one thing, you'd never get prostate cancer. Which sounds great, until you realize that you could get "walnut curculio" or "walnut-husk maggot" instead. Better to deal with the devil you know.

And what a devil it is. Last year, 221,000 men (one of them Robert De Niro) were diagnosed with prostate cancer; that's more than lung, colon, and brain cancers combined. And nearly 29,000 men died of it last year. These are grim statistics, but there's reason to be optimistic.

Make that eight reasons. Here is the latest, hot-out-of-the-lab research on how you can prevent, detect, and treat the disease. Putting this science into action (read: more sex, more wine) won't confer absolute immunity, but it will make your prostate one tough nut to crack.

Japanese scientists introduce new HIV drug

Japanese scientists introduce new HIV drug

Japanese researchers have developed a durable new drug that blocks HIV from entering human cells and causes almost no side effects. The new drug, code named AK602, was unveiled by Hiroaki Mitsuya, leader of the research team at Kumamoto University, at the International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific in Kobe Tuesday, the Asahi Shimbun reported Wednesday. The drug's main feature is that it shuts out the AIDS virus at the point when it tries to intrude into a human cell. Current AIDS medications often lose their effectiveness after a few days due to the virus' resistance, but the AK602 reacts to human cells instead of attacking the virus, said Mitsuya, a university professor. When the new drug becomes attached to the protein that acts as an entrance into human cells for the AIDS virus, it can prevent HIV from entering.

--> The researchers conducted clinical tests on 40 AIDS patients in the United States. When the patients took 0.02 ounces of AK602 twice a day for 10 days, the number of HIV viruses dropped to an average of 1 percent.

Almost no side effects were reported, the professor said.
