Coping With A Funeral
Coping With A Funeral
by: Sharon Jacobsen
When the death of a loved one occurs, regardless or whether it was expected or not, you will find yourself having to deal with a great number of people. Some you will know closely, others may be complete strangers; all will be claiming some kind of relationship to the deceased.
Whilst grieving for your loved one you may find yourself not wanting contact with anybody other than those to whom you are closest. Having to deal with so many people can be...
Flirting For A Long-Term Relationship
Flirting For A Long-Term Relationship
by: Sharon Jacobsen
Have you ever wondered why we flirt? I mean, we've all done it at some time but it's one of those things that we do without really giving any though to why or how.
Quite simply, flirting's our way of letting the opposite sex know that we're available. What it says we're available for depends entirely on how we flirt but for the sake of this article, I'll concentrate on the flirting that's done when you're with somebody you might...
Getting The Most From Your Candles
Getting The Most From Your Candles
by: Sharon Jacobsen
I love burning candles and have them all around the house. Long ones, short ones, fat ones, thin ones, in a plethora of colours. I burn them in the evening when I'm relaxing; I burn them at mealtimes; and I burn them in the bathroom when I'm pampering myself. Any excuse to light a candle really.
But candles don't always fit the holder, and sometimes they burn down too far and the wax gets stuck! It's at times like this that candles...
Girl Talk - Boy Talk
Girl Talk - Boy Talk
by: Sharon Jacobsen
Chas and Dave wrote a song about it and how right they were. Women just love to rabbit! Whether you calling it chatting, nattering, gassing or just plain talking, we're way ahead of the opposition in the vocal stakes. Not that I'm saying it's a reason for our men to dump us, as suggested by Chas and Dave, but I've no doubt there are times when they wish we'd put a sock in it.
More often than not, talking to another woman is far less work than trying...
Revenge Serve It Cold!
Revenge Serve It Cold!
by: Sharon Jacobsen
Whether you caught him in bed with the local bimbo, dumped him for being an uncaring twat or he's run off with a woman he met online, you're probably feeling angry, resentful and wanting revenge.
Revenge may be sweet but before you dive in head first, ready to present Mr Up-For-Mongrel-Of-The-Year 2004 award with his well earned payback, take some time to consider the sour taste that humiliation, physical injury and a criminal record might...
Secrets Of The London Tube
Secrets Of The London Tube
by: Sharon Jacobsen
Although it's many years since I left my home in London I still occasionally use The Tube, as the London Underground is affectionately known.
Hold on. Affectionately? Does anybody actually hold any affection for the network of tunnels that run beneath the surface of our capital, or the rolling stock that runs through them?
Theyre over-crowded, far too warm and stuffy (the temperature in the tunnels is about 10 C higher than at ground...

Superstition - A World of Make Believe?
Superstition - A World of Make Believe?
by: Sharon Jacobsen
Superstitions are part of our heritage, transporting us to a distant past that links with the roots of our culture. The ancient lores of our forefathers are still very much alive, many having remained unchanged for hundreds, perhaps even thousands of years.
Rational thought and the advance of science together cast doubt on the real dangers involved yet many of us still feel we ought to be careful.
There are hundreds of common...

The Art of Seduction
The Art of Seduction
by: Sharon Jacobsen
Seduction is a question of subtle strategy with one ultimate goal - to have sex with someone.
The desire for sex is powerful; for some it can be as powerful as the need to eat and breath. Seduction is the road we take to achieve sexual satisfaction.
While the ultimate goal is to have sex, there are lots of smaller goals that need to be reached along the road to the sexual surrender of our chosen partner.
For some, the thrill of seduction lies...
