What exactly makes people to fall in love? by Dr. Chris Hart

Have you ever been passionately in love? It’s such a strange feeling. So intense. An all-consuming longing for your lover. You idealize your partner and think about them all the time. Wanting to know everything about them; to please them and understand their feelings. To be close to them. And you experience such a roller coaster of emotions: joy, happiness, serenity, anxiety, panic and despair.

Passionate love’s driven by hope, loneliness and jealousy. A mixture of pain and pleasure. It can be a bitter sweet experience. For some so painful they hope never to fall in love again.

Today is February 29th...Leap Year! Did you know?

 1908 postcard Woman capturing man with butterfly-net.

 A leap year (or intercalary or bissextile year) is a year containing one additional day (or, in the case of lunisolar calendars, a month) in order to keep the calender year synchronized with the astronomical or seasonal year. Because seasons and astronomical events do not repeat in a whole number of days, a calendar that had the same number of days in each year would, over time, drift with respect to the event it was supposed to track. By occasionally inserting (or intercalating) an additional day or month into the year, the drift can be corrected. A year that is not a leap year is called a common year.
February 29 is a date that usually occurs every four years, and is called leap year day. This day is added to the calendar in leap years as a corrective measure, because the earth does not orbit around the sun in precisely 365 days.

What Kenyan dudes want for Valentines By Jim Guteta

• Romance

As it is one of the most romantic days (officially), men would expect romance, but the main thing to keep in mind is that the romance between men and women differs.

For women romance means a moment where she is close to her partner emotionally. Men are just the opposite. Their romance is intimacy with sensuality. Your man will expect a romantic evening with you.

The reasons Why You're Not Married

You want to get married. It's taken a while to admit it. Saying it out loud -- even in your mind -- feels kind of desperate, kind of unfeminist, kind of definitely not you, or at least not any you that you recognize. Because you're hardly like those girls on TLC saying yes to the dress and you would never compete for a man like those poor actress-wannabes on The Bachelor.
You've never dreamt of an aqua-blue ring box.
Then, something happened. Another birthday, maybe. A breakup. Your brother's wedding. His wife-elect asked you to be a bridesmaid, and suddenly there you were, wondering how in hell you came to be 36-years-old, walking down the aisle wearing something halfway decent from J. Crew that you could totally repurpose with a cute pair of boots and a jean jacket. You started to hate the bride -- she was so effing happy -- and for the first time ever you began to have feelings about the fact that you're not married. You never really cared that much before. But suddenly (it was so sudden) you found yourself wondering... Deep, deep breath... Why you're not married.
