Should I tell her?

 How do you know when to confess your feelings for someone? No rulebook says this is the right time or the wrong time. However, there are a few things you can keep in mind to help you decide if telling someone might be advantageous. If they have shown signs of being romantically interested in you and they seem like they would appreciate hearing from you, then go ahead and tell them! If not, it's probably best not to get their hopes up and just shoot them a text instead.

Two questions you must ask yourself before you decide to tell someone:

1. Do I like this person?

2. Would this person be worth the risk of losing them forever?

Let's look at both of these questions separately to help you decide whether or not it's safe to tell them.

Do I like this person? This one is pretty simple. Have you been interested in this person for a while? Do you think they are attractive? Do you like spending time with them? If the answer to these questions is yes, then go ahead and tell them! You've got incentive enough to want to take the risk!

If the answer to at least two of these questions is no, it might not be a good idea. While it's possible that this person has done something unexpected and completely won you over, more than likely you're still not interested in them. It's not to say you can't change your mind, since you can. However, it's probably better to keep your distance and let them approach you instead of the other way around.

It is pretty rare to never have been interested in someone before, but that doesn't mean you should never approach them. The key is knowing what they're interested in and approaching them with things they will find interesting as opposed to trying to use methods that don't work for everyone.

Would this person be worth the risk of losing them forever?

If the answer to this question is no, it may not be a good idea to tell them. This is one of those times when you need to weigh the risk of them finding out against how much you actually care about them. It's better to not risk it than lose it altogether!

There's no doubt that the possibility of losing someone forever is a strong deterrent for most people when deciding on whether or not to take a chance at telling someone. However, it doesn't have to weigh on your mind as heavily as some might think. If you're worried about losing them forever, you might be worried about the wrong reasons.

There is a myth that goes around most high schools, especially those with a handful of romantically involved students. That myth is that there's no chance of you ever getting into a relationship if you've never had one before. This isn't always the case! Many people who are in relationships after years of being single have never been in a relationship before. There are many more single people than there are in relationships and the numbers suggest that it's likely more likely that someone will be single forever than to not get into at least one relationship before they die!

There's nothing wrong with waiting for love and not settling for less than what you want. However, you may end up waiting forever. If you never tell them how you feel because of the fear that they might dump you, then you might just lose them forever because they did like your face and think it would be fun to spend time around.

If someone is worth the risk of losing them forever, then it's worth it to take the chance at telling them.

War

 A war huh!

War, is a violent conflict between groups or nations. The causes and consequences of wars have been discussed by scholars, politicians, and journalists for centuries.


I remember when I first heard the word War. My childhood was filled with war movies like "Saving Private Ryan" where the protagonist goes on a personal crusade to find his best friend's last known location in war-torn Europe, "The Pacific", in which men live and die to defend their island home against an invasion of Japanese forces while harboring hope that they will be reunited with loved ones back home.

I remember it vividly when I first heard the word War, I was in the eighth grade. I heard my teacher mention "World War II" in his lecture. World War II: A war fought from 1939 to 1945 by the Axis Powers (Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial Japan) and Allied Forces (British Empire, Soviet Union, and the United States of America) for global supremacy. I was surprised that there even was a war where nations went to war with each other. Naturally, this sparked my interest and I went on to read about all sorts of wars from the Opium Wars to the recent Korean Conflict.

I learned about the foundation of the British empire in Africa and the Caribbean. I learned about Rome's invasions of many different countries in Europe, both by land and sea. I learned about battles throughout history, such as those at Troy, Marathon, and Hastings. I learned that wars aren't just won by force alone; you often can have more casualties in a naval battle than on land. I learned about the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, and of the Mongolian invasion that followed. I learned about war and its cost, such as the hundreds of thousands of lives lost in World War I alone. In my research, I felt as though the knowledge was being accumulated before my eyes and I couldn't wait to share it with others like an excited child christening his new toy.

"War" was a word that intrigued me, much like how "tragedy" is defined as an "eventful occurrence or experience". Events like these excite me because they give my attention to a subject that can be very broad in terms of knowledge.

While I was in the eighth grade, I had various plans for my future. In fact, I already knew that after high school, I intended to go to university and study international studies. This is where I expected to engage in research and analysis for my final two years of education. Now when I look at the subject of international studies in today's society, however, an "eventful occurrence" did not seem appropriate anymore. Instead of engaging with a wide cast of characters from all different backgrounds and cultures as was customarily done in the past; we now tend to find information about whether or not people are talking about war online or over the television or newspaper.

Love.... What the heck this is?

 

currentalks


Love is a love song, a book, a movie, or an idea. It is an emotion. It is everything that is good and bad about humanity. Most people are familiar with what it means to love someone else but the meaning of love has been lost in translation.


This article discusses different aspects of what the word "love" entails while emphasizing why it's important to learn more about one's self in order to know how much time one should put into achieving their own personal relationships as well as finding true love that could last forever.


The idea of love is mostly associated with a deep and warm feeling of affection. It is the feeling of attachment and protection towards a person, animal, or thing. That type of love is called unconditional love.


Some people think that they can use means such as manipulation to obtain this type of love but they are wrong because it will not work in the long run, especially if what you are doing to get that type of love from that person is wrong.


It is also more of a love that has no expectations because you will not be disappointed if you do not get what you expect. That type of love makes it easier to be pushed away because one would know that they will not hurt as much if they find themselves being abandoned.


Unconditional love is important in teaching children how to love in a healthy way. When the child grows, he or she will have standards and expectations of what he or she wants in life and in relationships, whether a friendship or a romantic relationship.


Providing that kind of love will make the child feel safe and protected. The child will grow up to be an individual with a positive outlook in life because he or she had someone who loved them from the very beginning without asking anything in return.


Unconditional love does, however, include expectations and there are other types of love. One type is called conditional love which is when you behave a certain way in order to get something from someone else. It may be just a special treatment or it could be something materialistic like money or gifts.


This love is only a means to an end and it is not what love should be at all. In order to have a deep and lasting relationship, it is important to know the requirements of that person before you start going out with him or her because once you actually get together, it will be too late for you and that person.


People who are in relationships are always hesitant to end them especially if they have been with that person for a long time because they prefer to keep those moments as their own instead of throwing them away like trash.


A relationship that someone was in for two years was recently shortened to six months because the lover decided to end their relationship unexpectedly, something which she says she will never do again.


She did not give the person a chance to fix his mistakes because it was too late once she decided to break up with him. Her decision also caused the other person's friends to stop hanging out with him and eventually led to a series of negative effects.


The other type of love is unconditional love within a romantic context which has become popular nowadays because people are always looking for Mr. or Ms. Right that they can spend the rest of their lives with, but there is always uncertainty in those kinds of relationships and those who are in it are not sure if he or she is actually what they want in life until they finally break up and realize how much time and effort was wasted.


People should not be afraid to move on with their lives after a relationship because that is life no matter what. There are multiple opportunities for them to find love again even if they are being cautious about future relationships.


Leaving a person who does not give you what you want is the best thing to do in order for you to let go of your emotions that were attached to him or her. There is no sense in staying in a relationship if it brings more negativity into your life than positivity.
