Q: Could you help us settle a growing conflict in our marriage? I always tell my wife I love her and would do anything in the world for her. That doesnt seem to do it for her. In fact, her response usually is, talk is cheap. I want you to show me that you love me. Im not sure what she means, and I need to figure it out fast.

I think I might know where you are stuck. You see, there is a huge difference between declaration and demonstration. In my experience, most men have not made that important distinction, while most women see it as very obvious.

Saying the words I love you, Youre the most important thing in my life, etc. is a wonderful thing to do. And sometimes its even enough, especially if your partners love language is hearing. But if your partners love language is seeing, (as Im guessing hers is), talking alone just wont do it.

One of the many places I lived growing up was on the Kansas/Missouri border. In Missouri they have a saying called show me. I dont know if your wife is from Missouri or not, but it sounds like she is saying dont just tell, show me!

The good news is that while most of us men are fairly slow with this stuff, we are trainable. Heres three steps to putting some hands and feet on this declaration vs. demonstration idea:

1) Pay attention - notice what your partner is interested in and talking about.

2) Think ahead - anticipate future needs and take the necessary actions to meet them.

3) Ask your partner these very simple, yet profound questions:

what does love look like to you? What you may think it looks like may be way different from what it looks like to her.

what are three things I need to do on a regular basis to show that I love you?

what are three things I need to not do to show you that I love you?

Whatever the answers, you have the beginning of a map on how to do this demonstration thing.

Remember, declaration is not demonstration. Trying is not doing. Doing is doing. So go do!

Normally, we call it march in. I feel wedding can be a very special one when the wedding couple dances into the ballroom rather than the normal march in.

My cousin had his wedding and surprisingly, there was this segment when he danced with his bride.

The dance served as an entertainment for us too.

Soon after, other guests joined them and we had our first dance too. The aisle was packed with dancing couples.

Even my aunties and uncles who are already in their sixties joined in too.

Rather an amazing sight to see. One of the very few in Singapores wedding indeed.

If you are planning your wedding and have a special piece of music for your all important first dance, you may want to sign up your very first wedding dance lesson in a dance studio.

Through a course of private lessons, the dance teacher may be able to customise the dance lesson for you.

As you know, we all have different calibre. For me, Im sure Im not a good dancer because I cant coordinate the dancing steps well.

However, it is always worth a try.

At the dance studio, the experienced teachers can choreograph an individual dance to fit your music perfectly.

There are different type of wedding dances:
1. traditional Waltz,
2. sexy Argentine Tango
3. passionate Rumba

Dancing isnt as easy as what it seemed. We all saw from television programs which show dancing competition and how graceful the dancers were.

They were dancing as one. They were moving their bodies as one.

However, do you know they may have learnt and practice for ten over years just to be able to qualify for the dancing contest?

But, wedding couples do not have so much time.

Whatever you do, if you are going to dance at your wedding, just enjoy yourself and Im sure all the guests will feel very proud of how happy the wedding couple is!

This article isn't going to go over well with those die hard mystery shopping fanatics out there who swear that mystery shopping is the greatest thing to hit the Internet since the Beatles hit the Ed Sullivan Show. Well, it's time to set the record straight about Mystery Shopping and just how much you can realistically make from this endeavor. Hopefully, after reading this little expose, you'll have a decent idea of what Mystery Shopping is about and whether or not you want to even bother with it. Yes, it is time to learn the truth about Mystery Shopping

The first thing I don't understand is why people call this an Internet business. Mystery Shopping has nothing to do with the Internet other than the fact that you are probably getting paid by a company that has established itself on the Internet and when you make your reports, you do so by submitting the information via their web site. But other than that, there is nothing Internet about this. Okay, I guess I should explain what Mystery Shopping is for those who don't know.

Mystery Shopping is basically going out of your house to various local, or not so local establishments and purchasing items or services from these establishments and then reporting back to the web site your findings. The web sites use this information as reviews for these establishments for people who want information on them. It is a great service for people who want to know if an establishment is worth going to. But for the mystery shopper, it's a whole different story.

For starters, many times your payment comes in the form of the service itself. Say you're sent out to eat at a new restaurant. Many times your payment is the meal. Well, maybe for some people that's fine, but when you have to travel 60 miles to get to the restaurant, especially with the price of gas today, while it may be a fun night out, it's certainly not profitable. If anything, most mystery shopping gigs will end up costing you money.

Then of course there is the gas expense. Even for the Mystery Shopping gigs that pay you in actual cash, by the time you deduct your expenses, which are not covered, you don't end up with much. And the pay is pretty dismal anyway. At best, you'll make about $20 for a very long assignment.

Finally, there is the problem of getting assignments. Most mystery shopping companies don't give you a lot of work unless you're willing to travel hundreds of miles, especially if you live in the sticks. You'll be lucky to get one assignment a month in many cases.

The truth is, you can't make a lot of money with mystery shopping. If you're just looking for a night out, it's great. Just don't expect to get rich from doing it.

Millions of people get canker sores every year. These painful and unsightly lesions that form in the mouth and on the lips are small white ulcers that can make life very uncomfortable for a day or two. More annoying than truly harmful, a canker sore is usually not serious enough to warrant a doctor visit, yet you may need to apply medicinal cream to ease the discomfort of this small but powerful sore place. If your sore stems from the Herpes simplex virus, your doctor can prescribe an ointment to address prevailing symptoms. You also can buy over-the-counter medications that will help to control the discomfort associated with the sore.

Although the herpes virus is the most common and likely culprit, many people believe that exposure to certain elements spur the development of these lesions at certain times. Here is a rundown of the most popular sources of blame:

1. Sunshine. Those with sensitive skin may prefer to avoid sun exposure during the peak hours between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., as this is when the rays have their most direct effect on the earths surface. Sunbathers sometimes get a canker sore after several hours on the beach or poolside. Swimmers comprise another likely target group. While in the sun, wear sunscreen to protect your face and skin from the worst of the hot rays.

2. Acidic foods. Tomatoes, citrus fruits, chocolate, and other tangy food items may help to encourage a canker sores development. If you discover a link between your consumption of these foods and the emergence of a canker sore, reduce your intake of these items or make health-conscious substitutions. For example, have pizza or pasta with white sauce instead of tomato sauce occasionally.

3. Stress. Many folks feel that undergoing significantly stressful events can bring out a canker sore. Try to balance the stress in your life with periods of rest or relaxation, perhaps listening to classical music or keeping a journal. Learning to manage stress in your life can help to guard your health from a number of adverse conditions and diseases.

Canker sores can grow or spread, so dont puncture them in hopes of making them disappear more quickly. Some people who have canker sores dislike kissing others for fear of spreading the sore. It might be a good idea to refrain until the sore goes away. If you have a sore on your mouth, wash it gently with warm water and mild soap. Avoid using the same washcloth on other parts of the face or body unless it has been rinsed out thoroughly. You may prefer not sharing drinking glasses with another person until a sore has disappeared completely. If a sore persists for more than two weeks, see your doctor, as it may be something other than a canker sore.

Relationship conflict can be a scary thing for many couples.

Recently I was working with a couple that was doing pretty well, yet had a brief conflict earlier in the week. Before we could even celebrate their progress one of them wanted to jump right in to talking about the conflict earlier in the week.

I asked them to stop for a moment and consider something: are you bringing this up to finish cleaning up the conflict or only serve to stir up the conflict?

How to Clean It Up

"I'd start walking your way, and you'd start walking mine." - Rio Diamond

Just as there are many ways to stir up a conflict, there are many ways to clean up a conflict.

I have a friend that once he has settled a conflict with someone his last words are "and now we never have to talk about it again."

• Talk about it. Talking about it can often take the power out of a conflict.
• Give up your commitment to always be right now matter what.
• In a long term relationship you do not always have to see things the same way. You do, however, have to be able and willing to "crawl behind the other person's eyes" and see it through their eyes.
• This is a hard one. When you are getting blasted by your partner, instead of blasting back or shutting down, as "Is there more?" This one, when you can get yourself to do it, can really diffuse a conflict.
• Find a compromise that works for both of you by meeting as many of each others needs as possible.
• Do some make-up kissing and/or making love. This is a great way to put some closure on the conflict.

And then you never have to talk about it again.
