Couple of The Month: Edita & Ahmed

SMB:  Firstly, tell us how you two met each other.  We both were on vacation back in 2004 at a resort in Egypt. He was there with friends for his uni break  and I was with my mum who  decided it was ok if I skipped school for a week in the horrid month of February.  It was in the hotel lobby where we first met each other. He made the first move to talk to me.  Can I just call out that it was right after the beach with sand in my hair and completely make-up-less!  SMB: Tell us about your first date!  E: It was out of this world! As soon as we met, it felt like we knew each other all along. We were talking so much and just discovering how many things we had in common.  SMB: Where did you go or what did you do on the date?  We literally went for a walk around the whole resort  where we were vacationing. We walked for miles, talked and laughed like …

Celebrating the Holidays With the One You Love.

Let it Be (B)eautiful: Christmas isn’t all about gift giving, although retail giants will tell you otherwise. If you can go out there and VOLUNTEER or DONATE please do so… as a couple (or with friends)! It will  bring you that much closer as you share in such a rewarding experience. Let it Be (A)uthentic: Get creative with your gift giving! I love surprising my loved ones. One year I hid concert tickets in a DVD box for my brother. Last year I managed to get my hands on my boyfriends phone in order to switch it with the brand new one I bought him. He had no idea until I handed it over to him because it was ringing. He was confused for a slight second, but then became super happy. 🙂 Let it Be (D)etermined to Last: The holidays can be stressful with all the spending, gift buying, family visits, annoying relatives and the like. However, make a conscious effort to avoid taking it out on your partner. It is not their fault your brother sent you …

Relationship Advice: Respect yourself and your body. Sex doesn’t mean love.

Let it be (B)eautiful: A woman who respects herself and her body is way sexy. Let it be (A)uthentic: You deserve to be happy with someone all the time not just when your naked. Be real with yourself, are you happy with your current situation being based on pure physicality or do you want something more? Let it be (D)etermined to Last: Sleeping with someone will not, I repeat NOT make them want to take you seriously or pursue a committed relationship. So please don’t ever think this will be the case even if he says so. Getting it on should not be a prerequisite for relationship 101. So don’t be pressured into doing something you don’t want to do, especially for a guy! “If you want to be respected by others the great thing is to respect yourself. Only by that, only by self-respect will you compel others to respect you.” So B.A.D Girls  in your experience has hooking up ever led to a serious relationship?

“You can have my heart or we can share it like the last slice.” ~Drake

Let it be (B)eautiful: Your true home is with the person that you love. You should feel most comfortable and at ease with that person by your side no matter where you both may be physically at the moment. Let it be (A)uthentic: Long distance relationships can be tough, I know this from experience. But if you love someone more than anything, then distance only matters to the mind, not to the heart. Let it be (D)etermined to Last: If you are a foodie like me then I bet you enjoy your meal right down to the last morsel.  However, when you love someone you should be willing to share your last bite so they can enjoy too. This can also be applied to other things like sharing personal space, time, the TV, ideas, pillows, etc. Sharing is sexy. 😉

Your relationship should be a judgment free zone, full of respect, hot cocoa & cuddling!

Let it be (B)eautiful: The cold weather is here, which means everyone wants a cuddle buddy. If you are fortunate enough to have one than you best make sure you take full advantage. Hot cocoa, a good flick , and a warm blanket sounds divine. Let it be (A)uthentic: I love how if I am having a rough/emotional/stressful day I can go to my guy fall into his arms and let out a good cry. Your relationship should be a judgment free zone. No make up on, bad hair day, PMS and all, you should feel comfortable being you. Let it be (D)etermined to Last: Respect. This one word says it all. If you don’t respect your partners feelings expect your relationship to have a first class seat on a train to nowhere. If your partner feels differently than you do, instead of flipping out, take a second to understand their side. This is where communication comes in. Take a few minutes where you both explain your point of view, put your pride on a …

“We were given: Two hands to hold. Two legs to walk. Two eyes to see. Two ears to listen. But why only one heart? Because the other was given to someone else. For us to find.” ~Unknown

Let it be (B)eautiful: With the Holiday season rapidly approaching I am a big fan of doing activities that remind you of childhood. Things like apple picking, pumpkin decorating, baking cookies, card making,etc. It may sound cheesy, but I bet it will be fun to introduce your inner child to your partners if they haven’t already met! Let it be (A)uthentic: It can be difficult when you are dating and it just isn’t working. It may even hurt, but what you need to realize is that it happened for a reason. I have had my fair share of heartbreak and thinking, but why can’t I find love? The answer? That person is not meant for you. I really do believe we all have that one person out there, so don’t settle b/c you feel rushed. Let it be (D)etermined to Last: When you make a commitment to a relationship, you invest your attention and energy in it more deeply because you now experience ownership of that relationship. That person is now YOUR significant other and …

“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.” ~Elizabeth Gilbert

Let It be (B)eautiful: There’s nothing sexier than a man enjoying a meal you have just prepared for him. The satisfaction of knowing you have completely pleased him is worth the amount of time you spent slaving over that stove. Surprise your man with a romantic home cooked meal, maybe even a sexy outfit you know he would like, and he will be kissing your feet. 😉 Let it be (A)uthentic: I see so many women completely lose themselves in relationships. I in fact have been a victim to that myself. I thought he knew what was best for me. I thought I had to love him more than myself and that all of my time should be devoted to his needs. However over time, I grew strength as a woman and realized that real love, does not mean you have to forget who you are, or put aside your values, needs and wants so the other person can be happy. Real love is being able to SHARE all those things with your partner without …
