When I finished college, I moved to Queensland for two years. I eventually became home sick and moved back to Canberra. I was out partying one night with girlfriends at a bar and Mark asked a mutual friend to introduce us. We danced for a while and he asked me out to dinner the following Saturday night – I knew he was the one from that first dance. We bought a house together two years later and lived there for three years – Mark told me that he had won a prize on a local radio station for us to go skydiving. I had never done anything like it before and was very nervous, but he kept telling me that it would be ok and that I would love it. We went up in a tiny plane and when we reached 10,000 feet, it was time to jump – just before Mark jumped out, he looked at me and asked me to marry him! Of course I said yes and jumped out after him. When we landed friends and family were waiting for us with champagne and of course, the ring. It was very romantic and a huge surprise.

It was so romantic, we got married in the Brisbane botanical gardens, on the wedding lawn, overlooking a little lake, it was just perfect. Our theme was, semi formal with a purple & white colour scheme. We had “Elegant Settings” do all the chairs, covers and red carpet, we felt like royalty. We had Naomi Brett (Harpist) playing the Harp for back ground music who was just fantastic and her music was so beautiful. I walked down the aisle with my mum and dad who had both travelled in the car with me and our dear little daughter Abby, with my bridesmaids in the other car. I felt so special, when I saw Stu standing there waiting for me at the end of the aisle with a big smile on his face.

Upon entering the reception room we proceeded to engage in a Polish wedding tradition where the parents of the bride and groom feed the couple salt, bread and sweet dessert wine as a symbol of the sweetness and bitterness of life. We briefly cut the cake and attempted to eat dinner. I couldn’t eat much as I was a little nervous and I was very surprised when Steven refused to eat as he wasn’t feeling well. We put it down to nerves but I was later to find out he was suffering from food poisoning from the previous day!

I kept going to the Mac Shop everyday and then about 2 to 3 months later we started dating and Kelly got headhunted for a Mac Job in Brisbane. We were packing him up and getting him ready to move to Brisbane when we took a break around 11:50 pm and drove to the top of Castle Hill, which over looks the whole town of Townsville. Kelly got down on one knee and said that he couldn’t live without me in his life and that he couldn’t move to Brisbane without me and he asked if I would be his wife. And I said yes without hesitation.

Our home towns are worlds apart, mine being Gracac, Croatia and Neil’s in Dallas, USA, but we met in Perth where we were both living, through an Internet chat program called ICQ. We quickly discovered that we had many things in common, so I then decided to ask him out for a date. We began dating regularly and the rest is like a fairytale. I’ve never been closer to anyone, he truly is my best friend and my best boyfriend. One night (4th of August, 2003) Neil picked me up from work and we went to Kings Park, to the place where we had met for the very first time. He knelt down and proposed to me in the most beautiful way.

Our wedding day had arrived. It was a beautiful sunny day without a cloud in the sky. My day started with my best friend waking me up at 7am singing “You are my Sun Shine” and then proceed to sing “We’re going to the Chapel” and pushing me out of bed. I slept like a baby the night before our wedding. All my worries had gone, I knew everything had been done and nothing could be changed, ‘it was out of my control’. I had a great morning with my three bridesmaids. We spent the morning at my best friends salon and my sister and I did the makeup. Upon retuning from the salon, two-dozen long stem red roses arrived. When I saw the roses being walked up my parent’s driveway, I cried for the first time. The tears didn’t stop there…

Questions, questions and more questions! They are the most interesting things that we can ask when we want to learn about someone else.

Dale Carnegie in his timeless bestselling book, “How to win friends and influence people” writes about the power of asking interesting questions to show that we are interested in connecting with someone else.

You must have been to a party and you’ve been the one asking the questions and doing most of the listening? If you have you will probably attest that the other person thought that the conversation was quite interesting – funny that! You probably did less that but you got 100% of the credit!

If you’re a guy and ask some great questions, you will often find yourself jumping to last-base, thus saving yourself a lot of legwork trying to build rapport with her. Asking questions and listening is one of the most naturally flattering things you can do to anyone.

Despite the ego-stroking that can happen, if you are genuine, you will always win someone over quickly. They will feel your genuine interest and respond.

Have you split up and want to get your ex back? Or you’re on the verge of splitting and want to save your relationship. The three tips in this article may help you out.

Yes it’s going to be hard work to save your relationship but the rewards will be worth it. Especially if you can feel there is still some love left. Have a look at the next three tips as they may be the key to getting back together.

1 – Back to the very beginning

Who, or what did you fall in love with? Think about that. Also, who or what did your partner fall in love with? It’s so easy to slip into a comfort zone when you’ve been together a while.

When you first got together you work hard being the person they fell for. Try to find, and be that very person again. You need to rediscover the person that your ex (or partner) first fell in love with.

2 – You need attraction to each other

Attraction is the driving force behind all loving relationships. Like magnets, you can either attract or repel your partner. If you aren’t attractive to them you will push them away sooner rather than later.

Being attracted to someone doesn’t just mean liking the way they look, or finding them sexy. You could easily be attracted to your partners’ sense of humour or self confidence. Identify what they were attracted to and play up on that again.

3 – Talking to each other

Trying to save your relationship by having in depth heated debates with your partner (or ex) isn’t going to work. The majority of us shy away from confrontation and possible hurt. Don’t make your ex suffer this hurt. Keep any conversations light-hearted.

Remember the good conversations you used to have in the early days, you need to recreate them. You both became closer by having those early conversations. You can go a long way to saving your relationship by recreating those conversations with your ex (or partner).

Relationship rescue 101

The three tips above may seem simple enough. But you may find that you simply cannot act on them. A lot of people lack the confidence to actually take action, and sadly end up doing nothing. I’ve been there & done that, or not done it as is the case here. A lack of confidence will greatly reduce your chances of success.
