In my last entry about the scene in your love life you want to play differently I asked everyone their suggestions on what Christine of (Jorgendipity) should do with her so-called love life with Jorgen.   I recommend for her to either do a stalker mode on this guy she’s crushing by checking on his Facebook page when she finds it.  Or she can just move on and live a normal life and maybe find someone who she can have a real relationship with not that one-way love affair that is so weird!

Honestly, I feel sorry for Christine, because how can she tell if Jorgen is the one if she haven’t even had a serious one-on-one talk with him to even know if they compliment each other or have something in common right?

Did you know that it takes two years for someone to reveal his/her true colors?   Also, men is just courting a girl  will put their best feet forward to impress the girl they want.

A guy, especially someone who has a reputation like Jorgen I presume is trying to keep up with his image of that “perfect/dream guy” who is smart, sporty, sweet,caring, thoughtful and yes super handsome.   With the way Christine describe Jorgen he sounds like a “ladies-man” / “dream boat” type.

I just wish someone real will come to her life and finally make her move on from this so-called epic love story she created in her mind!

Sorry for being skeptic but I don’t want another innocent and sweet heart to be torn into pieces.  She deserves something better.

Dear Chrsitine,

If you can read my blog (which I hope you do).  I suggest you take a leap by stalking this Jorgen from your college days and make a real love story out of this or at least put an end to the fantasy love story you created for yourself.

I’m saying this as a mom who only wants the best for her daughter.  Stop being a fool by thinking of the what if’s, go ahead and make something happen!  Stop talking and do the walking!

Love,,

Mother Earth

How about you my dear readers, what do you think should Christine do so she can start writing a much better love story  her Jorgendipity blog?

Stay gorgeous eveyrone!

Maybe I have jealousy issues but when it comes to your man having female friends, where do you draw the line? Here’s a story that can give you more clue about what I mean:

One Friday evening a few weeks back I found myself camped on the couch with an unwelcome summer bout of strep throat. The huz had been more than a superstar over the previous week, answering every call for cranberry juice and SpaghettiO’s and carting me, feverish and grumpy, to the doctor. Sensing his need to break out of sickbay and avoid another night of old romantic comedies, I said, “Any plans tonight? You should go out.  I realize I’m about as fun as my high school principal.”

“Yeah,” he said. “I was thinking of heading out for a drink with a friend.”

“Cool. Who are going out with?”

“I’ve been texting with Katarina.”

“Katarina?” I croaked. “Who’s that?”

“You remember?” he said. “I told you about her. We worked together on that short film.”

“Oh. No, I don’t remember. Have I met her?”

“I don’t think so.”

“Well, what does she look like?”

“She’s a blond surfer chick — looks a bit like Kate Bosworth …”

“Yeah, no, I don’t remember you mentioning her,” I said.

He sat texting on the couch as I attempted to focus all my energy on Meg Ryan’s girlish glee in French Kiss. But Meg’s tragic wardrobe was distracting and I felt a touch miffed. Had subjection to too many rom-coms made my man want to date? Or had 40 hours of atrophy on the couch robbed me of all perspective? He is your husband — I told myself — he is allowed to have female friends. But is he allowed to have hot, mysterious friends I don’t know? I needed to get a grip but despite my intentions to give him the benefit, a Friday night Margarita with this new model-esque amiga, sounded downright date-esque. I decided to hold my tongue, took my thoughts to the bedroom and called a girlfriend.

“He’s going out for a drink with a girl who looks like Kate Bosworth,” I blurted.“Not cool,’’ she said. “He’s not allowed.”

“Really though?” I said, “I mean, I have guy friends…”

“Not any new ones since you’ve been married. Except that divorcé who hits on you. He’s not your friend.”

She was right. As I searched my brain to find my male comrades, I could only come up with the odd high school guy-pal, a smatter of university mates, and, of course, gay friends. Since I had married and moved to a new city, I realized, I hadn’t made a single hetero dude-friend who wasn’t one of our “couples friends.” And, in fact, not for lack of trying — I had found it hard to meet guys without an agenda. Nonetheless, I wasn’t willing to put a “no opposite sex friendship” clause into my marriage. I hung up the phone, looked my sickly, red-nosed self in the mirror and decided to just tell the huz how I felt.

Back on the couch I said, “I feel kind of jealous that you’re going out for a drink with a girl I don’t know.”

“I sensed that. Don’t you trust me?”

“I do. It’s just that we don’t really have many opposite sex friendships,” I said. “And it feels extra out-of-the-ordinary because I’ve never met her.”

“I have friends that are girls,” he said.

“Really? How many female friends have you made since we’ve been married?”

We listed his friends out loud (Kate aside) and came to the same conclusion — his, too, were long distance friends from the past.“I guess that’s why I thought it was cool to meet a girl that I connected with,” he said.

After more discussion, he conceded that if the tables were turned he would feel the same way but that it was no way to live. So what was the answer? We had reached an impasse. I told him that I thought he should go. He didn’t feel like it anymore.

As fate would have it, she cancelled while we were sitting there. I apologized for my jealous behavior and assured him that had he gone on his platonic rendezvous, I wouldn’t have pulled a Glenn Close. We resolved to keep this topic on the table, then he brought me ice cream and we watched Just Friends.

A few weeks later, I had the opportunity to meet Katarina at a pool party and she was, well, lovely — someone we both might have called a friend if she hadn’t been moving to Colorado.

And as for whether the huz is allowed to go on opposite sex dates, I say sure … so long as they are for lunch.

But honestly even lunch would have been suspicious for me, why do they have to go on a lunch date with just the two of them when they can do it with workmates as a whole group? Unless it’s a super confidential meeting. Maybe I should ask what the people from washington chat thinks about this. They are liberated and opinionated people so maybe their views are different from mine.

Angel of God my guardian dear, to whom his love commits me here.  Ever this day, be at my side. To light and guard, rule and guide. Amen.

My guardian angel, I’ll go to bed please stay beside me keep watch over my head.

They are just a couple of the prayers for your guardian angel I know.  Each person was said to have their own guardian angel.  They are our supernatural guides and protectors.  I don’t know where I got this but I was told if you need some guidance, are looking for a particular object, have an important decision in your life and you need clarity, just talk to your angel.  They will guide you at the right path.

But how can you talk to your angel if you don’t even know their names?   For a particular day there is a particular angel.  Now you can find out who is your guardian angel all you have to do is know the day (Mon-Sunday) you are born.  You can check  it here then come back here to get acquainted with your guardian angel.

What’s the name of your guardian angel?
