Relationships Articles

Relationship? What relationship? Once football season starts, he seems to forget there is one. If it were another woman, you might try losing fifteen pounds and buying a black teddy. But when he’s glued to the TV during football season, he wouldn’t notice anyway.

Is there perhaps a way to save your relationship from the clutches of the NFL? Or at least to improve it at some point before the Super Bowl?

Well, let’s explore the options. You can find other things to do while the game is on. Knitting. Shopping. Kung Fu lessons. But it seems that, from August pre-season through February Super Bowl, the game is always on. Which could work, if you’re the kind of person who likes a lot of space in your relationship.

But what if you don’t? What if you’re more into all that caring, sharing stuff? Well, then, the next question is: why aren’t you enjoying football with him? Or - lest we be accused of being sexist - with her?

What if we went into this thing without the prejudice of pre-programming? What if we changed the name of the game from football to . . . oh, maybe Pig Skin Play? Hmmm. That doesn’t sound too appetizing. How about Passing Fancy? Actually, although you may not realize it just yet, that’s a pretty descriptive title.

Anyway. Let’s say you’ve never heard of Passing Fancy. And no one has ever told you only men like Passing Fancy. So with no malice aforethought, you and your lover sit down in front of your TV to watch Sunday Night Passing Fancy.

The first thing you notice is those colorful uniforms. And (well, this you think but don’t say) aren’t the guys in them simply yummy eye candy.

Okay. So far, so good.

But when the game begins, you say, “Oh my! They’re all rushing around so fast! I can’t understand what they’re doing. I’m confused.”

Your beloved chuckles tenderly and says, “Sweetheart, it’s really a very simple game. See? The bunch of guys in the blue jerseys are trying to get past the bunch of guys in the red jerseys. And if they get all the way to the end of the field, they score six points.”

“Oh,” you say. “That was easy. Is that all there is to it?”

“Almost,” responds your beloved. “The guys who score the six points also get a chance to add another point by kicking the ball between the goalposts.” He good-naturedly points out where the goalposts are located. “And if they can’t get to the end of the field before their turns run out - they keep getting four chances to move the ball ten yards - they’re allowed to try kicking the ball between the goalposts even though they didn’t make it all the way to the end of the field. They get three points for that.”

“Oh,” you say again. “Sounds simple enough. But what happens if they don’t get their ten yards in four tries?”

“Well, then, the other team gets to take a turn,” he says, smiling indulgently.

“I see,” you say, beginning to interpret what’s going on. “And I guess whoever scores the most points wins, yes?”

“You’ve got it, Sweetheart,” he says proudly.

And that’s it. That’s Passing Fancy.

And now that you know what’s going on, you’re free to watch the true beauty of the game.

You begin to see the agility of the runners, the balletic grace of the pass receivers . . . why, you now realize, this is Swan Lake in cleats! Only with a surprise ending. Well, okay: maybe it’s a little bit more violent. But to be fair, let’s not forget what happens to the poor swan.

Anyway. What’s not to like? Simplicity. Grace. Beauty. A surprise ending. Cute butts. If no one ever told you women are not supposed to like Passing Fancy, you’d absolutely love this game!

So. Are you going to let ‘them’ tell you what you should like? You know: real women love to shop, hate football, and are afraid of mice. Well, maybe they have a point with the mice thing. And the shopping.

But the snuggling up with your lover to watch Sunday Night Passing Fancy . . . or Sunday Night Football, as the case may be: that should be your call, don’t you think?

Marriage is not always a fruitful association. Sometimes it leaves a sour taste in the mouth. In such cases, partners invariably split. It might be anything; impotency, infertility, incompatibility, hideous previous life among other things. Sometimes, the partners just don’t feel the same for you after marriage. This is a problem with them. It might be owing to their flirtatious nature or something else. In such circumstances, you can still pull your ex back. Here are few tips-

Attack him in night bars- night bars are luring, tempting; men are a vulnerable lot out there. The reasoning is simple. They are inebriated and pretty high on emotional quotient. At the same time if you wear your best shades, body hugging clothes and send voluptuous signals, they are given to think that they might have made the wrong decision. The feeling is sore. It’s a feeling of missing someone who deserved you. It may lure them for further talks after the morning hangovers.

Alimony- if you think they are the flirtatious lot and just want to leave you for better pastures, do not let it be so easy for them. Ask for a hefty alimony. It might be something he is not ready for. So he would much rather stick with you and flirt elsewhere than leaving you and paying a huge sum, leaving him with nothing to offer to his new love interests.

Bring the child equation- sometimes men are an emotional lot. They might have dumped you but still feel strongly about the children they have shaped. For all these people, it is still worth trying the child equation. Sometimes it brings them closer to you. After all, the child they love was held in the belly of a woman they have opted to dump. It brings back fond memories and children start acting as a bridge between you and your partner

When you are planning your wedding reception, you need to give careful consideration to whether you would like any music, either playing in the background or as the main entertainment. Music can be a vital aid to help set the tone of your reception, and here are a few basic points you will need to think about.

1. Firstly think about the theme of your wedding. Are you having a very traditional, sit down affair? If so then it might be best if you choose more traditional wedding music, such as live string quartet playing gentle, classical pieces or a stylish jazz/swing band if you want something a little more lively. If you are having a large family gathering then a DJ run disco might be more appropriate, which should provide a good range of music that all ages will enjoy.

2. Budget - hiring live musicians can be costly, so you will need to set yourself a budget and stick to it. Generally, the larger the band is the more it will cost, and also the price could depend on how long you want the band to play for. Depending on the style of music you could have up to seven musicians, and this could cost anywhere between L750- L1500 for the night. Try and engage local bands, as if musicians have to travel a long distance they will most likely charge you a travelling fee as well.

3. Venue - There are some regulations in place regarding live music entertainment in public, so make sure you check the rules at your intended reception location before you book any bands. Pubs, hotels and halls must have the appropriate license if two or more musicians are performing live, so if your venue does not have this license you will be restricted to just solo or duo performers. Some venues also have curfews on live music, usually around 11pm, or in sound limiters that will prevent the music from being over a certain level. Also you will need to ensure that the venue is ready for live performances and has power sockets in the designated set up area, and plenty of parking so that the band can offload their equipment easily.

4. Recommendations - before you book a band or DJ, ask around to see if anyone you know has seen them perform, or ask the musicians themselves if they have a gig that you can go along and watch for yourself. This way you can judge whether they are suitable and reliable, and if you meet them in person it will also give you a chance to discuss any special requests you might have. Most wedding bands make sure they have a wide repertoire of different music and are usually willing to accommodate most requests if forewarned. Bridal shops and services should also able to recommend good local bands or DJs, and also you can look in local papers, the telephone directory and also online for more information.

5. Music Programmes - a good wedding band will be able to provide a tasteful, appropriate range of music for your wedding, but you may want to get more involved with choosing the music. Most couples request one or two favourite special songs, especially for the first dance, but you could also sketch out a programme of music you would like played throughout the reception. Make sure you meet with the band to discuss whether they can accommodate your requests, and give them plenty of time to rehearse and learn any new songs. Try and pick music appropriate to the style of band you have booked - there is no point engaging the services of a jazz band and then asking them to cover lots of modern pop music tunes.

6. Back up plan - It is important to have a back up plan, just in case your band cannot make it at the last minute for some reason. If you are set on having a live band, make a list of 5 back up bands that you could call in an emergency situation. As it could be difficult arranging live performances at the last minute, check that your venue has its own music system and pick out some suitable CDs - then at least you will have some background music if all else fails.
