Ending a relationship can be easy or hard depending on the situation surrounding your breakup. Sometimes people get emotional while others get hostile which can lead to different outbursts. Trying to prevent this would be the best option.
In today's mental health question and answer session, share your opinion in the comment session below.
How best can a person end a relationship with a violent, controlling, and obsessive partner?
Relationships nowadays are like clothes people change everyday and it has become a norm in recent times. There is the freedom to love and move on if things are not working out but how do you ensure that in your next relationship you do not get your time wasted again.
I have put together tips that can help you understand a person before starting a relationship with him/her.
1. Understand yourself. When you know yourself, you understand what motivates you to resist bad habits and develop good ones. You'll have the insight to know which values and goals activate your willpower, tolerance, and understanding of others. Your awareness of your own foibles and struggles can help you empathize with others. (Ref: psychology today).
2. Never accept or give excuses for things you did not accept in your previous relationship because at the end of the day those things will end up ending the relationship in the long run.
3. Be you. Being another person is more taxing. Be you and let that person see you for you.
4. Be open to every conversation. This is one of the best ways of knowing people's beliefs, way of life, and thinking. This will help you see if there is a need to even take a step further to end it right there. Be patient during the conservation, do not force your opinion on anyone, be calm and accept anything the person says because that is what he/she beliefs and so it is better to allow them to air their views and beliefs to the fullest.
All my life I saw my mum used the native red oil to make meals such as soup, stew, etc. Red oil also known as palm oil has a unique taste, especially when the oil is freshly extracted from palm nuts. It tastes great and gives your food a nice appetizing aroma.
If you are familiar with the red oil but do not know the health benefits, here are the health benefits of using palm oil to cook.
Brain Health
Palm oil is an excellent source of tocotrienols, a form of vitamin E with strong antioxidant properties that may support brain health. Palm oil may help protect brain function, reduce heart disease risk factors and increase vitamin A levels in certain people
Improved Vitamin A Status
Palm oil can help improve vitamin A status in people who are deficient or at risk of deficiency. Studies in pregnant women in developing countries have shown that consuming red palm oil increases vitamin A levels in their blood, as well as in their breastfed infants
Heart Health
Palm oil has been credited with providing protection against heart disease
Acts as a very good antioxidants
Red palm oil contains vitamin E tocotrienols, which acts as a super-antioxidant and the carotenoids in red palm oil also act as antioxidants.
Reference: Healthline
Palm oil is 100% fat, half of which is saturated. It also contains vitamin E and red palm oil contains antioxidants called carotenoids, which your body can convert into vitamin A. In general please note that since it contains fat your intake matters a lot. Your intake determines the impact it has on your health.
Have a good day.
Summer is officially gone. Summer was fun, went by so fast. It's already getting really cold and I can't help but acknowledge the fact that summer is over tho one of the best parts for me, was going out in the evenings and summer afternoons wearing a beautiful dress and looking all fly.
On Saturday, I actually wanted to go out by 4:30 pm. I dressed up, had my face touched up, looking all good and I wore this dress. The weather wasn't exactly friendly but it wasn't so cold when I left the house. I wanted to take photos of this dress so I wore a jacket to cover my upper body but my legs were exposed. I went to a restaurant to have lunch, I had a burger which wasn't the best burger, it was just an overpriced tasteless meal, you can hardly find a good restaurant in this modern time.
After eating I left the restaurant. I took a walk to where I wanted to take the photos. I got there the sun was still shining which helped me stay warm even when I took off my bomber jacket. The funny part of that day was that when I finished taking the pictures, I was trying to control myself from shaking because I was already very cold. Goodbye to summer as we are already in autumn which is one of the hardest parts of the year for me.
Throughout the summer period, I wore dresses that compliment my body type. Femmeluxe is every girl's go-to online wardrobe. They basically give every girl access to the latest fashion trends designs and styles on a very reasonable budget. The striking and most commendable attribute of this business brand is that even though they have free mass measurement patterns, the measurements are always accurate, I mean for a size small you actually get a size small dress that suits you.
I think what makes a dress perfect is the fitting and the style of the dress. This dress has a nice fit which really compliments my body. The color is everything I mean it glitters when you are under the sun and you will love this dress even more. It has a dark color tone but yet so vibrant. This is one of my favorite dresses from Femme luxe.

We boost the illness of mentally sick people when we stay around them and give an excuse for why they treat us bad. In this Movie, Vane is the girlfriend of Angel a Sociopath. Just to make you understand better here is the difference between a sociopath and a psychopath.
A sociopath typically has a conscience, but it’s weak. He may know that taking your money is wrong, and he might feel some guilt or remorse, but that won’t stop his behavior.
A psychopath doesn’t have a conscience. If he lies to you so he can steal your money, he won’t feel any moral qualms, though he may pretend to. He may observe others and then act the way they do so he’s not “found out,” Tompkins says. Source.
Angel in this movie is a sociopath whose girlfriend Vena fed his illness by allowing him to subdue her in many ways. Vena knew she deserved better but she let herself give excuses for her man Angel's behaviors. When she decided to leave he felt she didn't have any reason to leave because that has become a norm for him and he became violent after tricking her back into the house.

Here are 5 stylish ways to dress up a sweatshirt.
Who else feels like a celebrity for a minute when you are well dressed and you are crossing the zebra crossing. When the cars stop and you use your side eyes to notice that they are all looking at how beautiful look. That feeling always gets me. I know it's so vain, but I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way sometimes.
I am slowly missing summer already. It is getting colder and a pullover is now essential.

When the COVID-19 outbreak began most people were very conscious of the effect of the virus on human health and protecting themselves was the utmost priority. People have gotten so comfortable and they no longer care about wearing masks, some say it is a scam while some believe it is just a phase. Whichever one it falls on let's not be taken unaware. Always wear a mask. It won't hurt to wear a mask but will hurt to get infected and face the pain of it all.
Wearing a mask is not comfortable for everyone but see your health as an asset and do the needful. If you are one of those people who stopped wearing mask please start today. The cold season is coming we all have to be careful.
Why did you stop wearing a mask?
As usual, when I go out during the weekend I focus on having fun because all work and no play make Melody unhappy. Yesterday was fun-filled but something happened while I was sipping my chilled coco-cola by the bar. The Disk junkie (DJ) was a beautiful vibrant young lady. When I first walked to the bar to get a drink she immediately spotted me and winked at me. Cool lady with a good choice of music.
There were several other people sitting at the bar. I noticed a lot of excited people but there was a young man that caught my attention. He sat with a lady who he came with I guess because they both sat so close and discussed while exchanging smiles a lot. The lady he sat with was focused on him but he could not take his eyes off the disk junkie it was so obvious that my friend also pointed it out to me.
Do you think his actions were very disrespectful to the lady he sat with?

There are situations that occur in life that shapes you to a different kind of person. Honestly, at this point, if I decide not to trust people I am not in any way to be blamed.
Here's the story:
A friend has asked me several times for my apartment in exchange for his, but I said no. Today, I got a message from my house owner saying: your friend wants your apartment but I told him you are not leaving yet. What should I do?
One of the difficult aspects of leaving a toxic relationship is for the individuals involved to come to the realization that they are in a toxic relationship. This can be excused for many other behaviors and also seen as love. As humans, we have a bit of toxicity in us. We do things that might not be acceptable at some point in life but when it is a constant habit the alarm should start ringing so loudly. When you can identify early signs of a toxic relationship you can be able to figure out ways to break out of it.
I asked a question on Quora which I am also asking everyone reading this article.
How do you identify toxicity at the early stage of a relationship?
This is not an easy process. Honestly, let me not make it sound like an easy process because it is not in any way an easy process. It will take time, patience, understanding, observation, self-awareness, and self-realization. It is important to know that being in a toxic relationship can ruin you and put people who care about your well being in constant worry and fear. The process may be so difficult, shameful but you have to come to the self-realization that your mental health should be protected at all times because this can drive you crazy and make you do things you never thought of doing.
There are persons who need to draw strength from other people. It can be pretty annoying if you have a close friend or a loved one who is going through this phase. It can be so tiring advising them and watch them go back to that same toxic environment or relationship. Do not give up on them because one day, they will slowly but surely come to the realization and gather the strength to detach themselves from such circumstances.
Do not be ashamed and afraid to seek help from the right authority if need be.
If it's toxic, leave it silently or loudly. What matters is that you left.
Question
At what point should you leave a toxic relationship?

It has been a whole lot of craziness this week. I got news about the death of my friend's mum. He has been in tears and I can not help but just pray for him to have the divine strength to move on. Everything just feels tight and I really want you all to also pray for him. I remember him taking these photos of me wearing this navy loungewear set from Femme luxe a week ago and I told him to be positive that his mum will be fine. I have been trying to meet with him but his energy is very low which is very understandable. We have been cool friends for years. I wish his family the strength to bear the loss and I pray that he will find happiness again. Amen.

I am a very strong believer that toxic friends and relationships should be well observed and put away.
Last year, I traveled back to my country and I spent Christmas in my country. I was ready to come back to Ukraine but the flights were so expensive. Three times the price because it was during the festive period. I decided to buy my ticket from a third party website to cut down costs. After purchasing the flight ticket, money was deducted from my account but no booking ticket confirmation was sent to me. I haven't used this company before so I panicked a lot, it was a friend who introduced me to this company. I waited for a day and sent lots of emails but the process was so slow and I had less than three days to travel. I also needed to buy a domestic air ticket to the airport where I planned to take off from.
I called the company several times. Each time I called my airtime/call credit finishes due to the high call charges. Sometimes I will be kept on hold for close to 30mins until my call credit gets exhausted, it got really frustrating and I shaded tears at some point and started regretting my decision of using a third party company. I decided to inform someone in Ukraine to help me call the company since it is a Ukrainian company, this will also facilitate the process.
The company is located in Kyiv being the capital of Ukraine and I needed a person who is based in the capital to call and if need be the person can quickly go to the office of the company to help me sort out things properly. I decided to inform the boyfriend of my friend. He made the calls and helped me rectify the problem in less than an hour everything was sorted out. The booking confirmation was sent to me via email and I was super happy. I called my friend and thanked her for the help her boyfriend rathered to me, of course, I said a very big thank you to her boyfriend too.
Later, my friend's boyfriend wrote to me that he would like that I bring a particular fruit for him. That fruit doesn't grow in Ukraine so I understood why he wanted it. "I promised to bring the fruit for him but he went ahead and said, 'you can come and stay in my place for some days before traveling to your city.'" He also asked that I send my ticket details so he can come to the airport to pick me. This was strange and I immediately informed my man but didn't inform my friend because I felt really uncomfortable. This was so disrespectful to my friend and I. I weaved it off because I felt bad for my friend and didn't want anything to affect her self esteem or for her to feel bad. I simply arrived at Kyiv and didn't call him.
I got to my city, informed him but he kept asking when I will come to Kyiv to spend time in their house, that he was very bored staying all alone. He never informed his girlfriend who is my friend about this. I wanted to keep the situation down and let everything slide so I just gave excuses such as I had to do quick registration, I had to fix my finances, I had a whole lot to fix, etc. I Stated that I will not be able to come to Kyiv and if I have to I will stay at another friend's place. He asked of the fruit and I made an excuse for that. I purposefully didn't bring the fruit because I didn't want him to come to the airport.
At the time this was happening my friend being his girlfriend was in Nigeria. I was communicating with my friend but suddenly she stopped communicating with me. I noticed some changes in her behavior little did I know that he (my friend's boyfriend) felt guilty and thought I was going to tell my friend what he did so he lied to her that I called him to ask him for some money which never happened and would never happen. My friend came back to Ukraine, didn't say a word to me, or inform me. I wrote her but she acted cold so I decided to let it be but my man told me I needed to find out what the issue was because she might be going through some issues. I got concerned again and wrote to her but she gave me the same attitude. I decided to forget about it.
There is something special and calmly sexy about chiffon maxi dresses.
I am very sure that I am not the only one who feels this way about chiffon dresses. They are very beautiful, airy, easy to wear and looks good on almost everyone. Growing up my mum used to buy chiffon dresses for me but I never appreciated them because I felt it was old school and didn't look good on me. Fast forward to years back, chiffon dresses are one of my favorite clothing styles because they look absolutely lovely on me. If you want to go for a decent yet sexy look then a chiffon dress does the magic. You can wear them to girls' night out, weddings, office functions, etc. You can add a hat and a cute basket bag with a belt depending on what works for you.
If you would like to purchase this dress, I am in full support and I give you my word. I washed this dress using a washing machine both the texture and quality remained the same. So it is a yes-yes for me. Noracora has very nice dresses for different occasions, so head over to buy yours.
Well, you might be wondering why so many poses well, I wanted something a bit different from just standing and doing the normal.
