The Desire for Pleasure and the Pleasure Itself
.
One of Arthur Schopenhauer's most famous phrases is: "life swings back and forth like a pendulum between pain and boredom." And we do. Humans are desiring beings who strive to obtain things from the world. Behind this striving is a lack of something. But once that desire is achieved it rarely makes you fully happy, because of every satisfied desire there are number of others, waiting to take its turn.
It's almost like the desire for pleasure and the pleasure itself are opposite. There are things we desire that must be achieved to survive, like food and water. But once we are lucky to have that, we become bored and we begin to desire for extra things like luxury, nicotine, drugs, fashion things.
Most of us desire to be in a healthy, in a long-lasting relationship and have a fulfilling sexual life. But desiring is one thing and actualizing it is a whole other apple. Sure there might be love and commitment. But, this isn’t enough to fulfill the desire of being in a relationship. Relationships needs hard work, but it is worth it at the end of the day.
Desire feeds the physical intimacy needed to nurture connection. If desire fades in an intimate relationship, the couple become more of housemates or colleagues. Yes, love can still be present, and they might even have sex. However, when there is no desire, how a person sees and feels themselves changes, and that will certainly reflect on the relationship.
So desire is the protective guard around relationships. But then it doesn’t stop there. You can desire yourself and your partner. However, you need more than just desire to sustain a relationship. Fulfilling a relationship requires both individuals to contribute actively to one another’s happiness without expecting anything.
You must invest time and energy into the relationship even as you invest in your self-growth and development. This way, you will achieve self-fulfillment and a fulfilling relationship. Investing in a relationship, even as you invest in your personal development, brings satisfaction and fascination. Your relationship will become better with time, and you will live a fulfilled life.
What If I Don't Want to Live in a Modern Society
Modern life can be depressing, and sometimes a primitive life feels like it would be fulfilling and a healthier alternative. Today almost everyone sells their time for wages. People are falling into depression because of pressure from their employers. Modern life has been linked with higher rates of depression, obesity from poor diet, and a sedentary lifestyle. Modern society is obsessed with possessing perpetual wealth. People have no time for families, friends, or hold real feelings for each other. Today everything is a competition.
It sounds retrogressive to hold the view that living in a world without the internet, computers, and automobiles is far better than modern life. I am convinced that people in the medieval period lived a more fulfilling life than the modern society. Clearly, modern people are more prosperous than people in the medieval period. Still, medieval people enjoyed plenty of free time with families and friends and had sufficient healthy foods from their farms.
Today, almost everything is unauthentic, from processed foods to young people feeling lonely when they have 100k social media friends. Modern life is complicating our life with unrealistic perceptions of fulfillment, and the best we can do is to disconnect from social media and connect life again. We gets so lost in online life that we forget to live our real lives.
Eliminate gadgets, turn off push notifications, don’t stress yourself making your profile perfect,give yourself 30 minutes to connect on social and then live a real life, interact with real people, and be awesome in the real world!

How to Deal with Agression on Social Media
Taking public jabs at others while avoiding personal confrontation is a new norm for communication today, thanks to social media. Following recent events in Ukraine and Russia, unfiltered hate, violence and anger on social media makes it impossible to contemplate. Simple explanation is that fear provokes aggression in people and not everyone is capable of handling it. Psychological well-being is something that more than half world's population struggles with daily. When you're a victim of such circumstances, you'll be glad to know that there are solutions to such problems. And so, while some fight cognitive warfare, let's explore strategies for combating negativity alongside improving your overall psychological wellbeing.
Avoiding negative
Simply walk away: if individuals around you are those with the mission to spread negativity, then walk away, let them cooldown and ensure you don't cross paths with them whatsoever.
Avoid arguing with a negative person: You should know that a negative individual won't regard your point as valid. So it's no point engaging in an argument you won't win. Otherwise, you risk exposure to pessimism.
Block negative people on your social media: if you're friends with negative people on Facebook or following them on Instagram, cut those ties as your physiological well-being is more important than their pessimism.
Recognize the negative parts of life: as much as you'd prefer a life where there aren't negative people, positive people and negative people are two sides of a similar coin. So, it's crucial to differentiate positive from negative people and know who to associate yourself with.
How you can improve your psychological well-being.
Control your stress
Learning to cope with stress through; relaxation, meditation exercises, and visualization can significantly help in improving your psychological well-being. On the other hand, stress is beneficial in moderate levels, i.e., improving productivity, alertness, and memory if triggered in short episodes.
Doing physical exercises
Research indicates that regular physical exercise can help improve your psychological well-being. Some of these psychological improvements physical fitness can reward you are:
- Reducing anxiety
- Improved mental functionality
- Releasing tensions like anger
- Eating right
You should know that consuming foods saturated with elements like sugar, fat, additives, and pesticides can significantly impact your brain's functionality. Eventually, you'll have poor mental health. But if you adopt a healthy meal plan, the perks of that are endless, and you'll have yourself to thank.
If you are struggling with your overall mental and psychological well-being, the solutions outlined in this article should catapult you towards living a stress-free, positive life.
Friendships: Quality over Quantity
Feelings of happiness are easy. Happiness is not. Flirting is easy. Love is not. Saying you’re friends is easy. Being friends is not. - David Levithan.
There are life lessons our parents teach us, life lessons we learn on our own and life lessons that only our friends can teach us. Friends are essential in our lives and while many friends have exparations dates,very few remain with us until the end of our days.
As children we don’t really choose friends. It's very quiet simple at the young age. Those who smile and play with us automatically built a friendship with us. The one that hangs around the most automatically becomes the best friend.
In adulthood the dynamic of friendship shifts because, as we mature we develop our own unique personality, needs, wants, and therefore just a smile is no longer enough.
The environment we are in, be it school or work, narrows down the list of friends you can choose from by default, just by virtue of the fact that you are in that environment.
Quality over Quantity
There are people who find value in having a lot of friends. The fact that they can confidently invite over twenty friends and post the gathering on social media allows them to fill their mind bubble with desired popularity. It allows them to feel heard, wanted and liked, factors that are most likely missing in reality. The truth is, not everyone can garner that many friends, unless you start giving out "ice-cream" in the forms of a job, free amenities, giveaways, etc.
And then there is another kind of people who find value in having as little friends as they possibly can. These folks guard their friendship circle so strongly because it is built on trust, love, respect and loyalty. Majority of the time, such friendships can even comprise of as little as two people. It is quite rare for this kind of friendship circle to get past five individuals. Having a whole bunch of fiends to hang out and party might look "great" from the outside, but having a few strong individuals in your inner circle who you can always count on is the real deal.

Friends Before Lovers
Relationships are sensitive matters that you must always consider with a sense of seriousness. Before you become lovers with anyone, you first have to become friends. Being friends first means that you will set the essential boundaries and rules about what is acceptable between you and what is not permitted. The both of you will also be able to determine what you are comfortable with the other person and what you are not satisfied with. When you have these facts established, you will decide whether you should move on to the next stage of your relationship.
Before you become lovers, being friends first means having a stable foundation to base your continued relationship. The fact that you are friends also means that you will have more in common with each other. The convergence of your interests will be significant in determining whether you are compatible with each other and whether you make the best romantic match.
Whenever you are looking to be in a relationship with someone, do not feel pressured or forced into anything. The good people will linger around for longer, but the people that are baying for your blood and simply out to hurt or destroy you will be there much faster than you would expect. Once they have done their damage and left with the wind, you will be at a loss, and most of the time, you will find yourself blaming yourself for having fallen in love too fast.
No matter the kind of personality you have to deal with, friendships enable you to set your parameters for the potential relationships you are likely to have. When you are friends first, you will determine what you are comfortable with and what you scream from the inside when you feel it near you.
Once you are comfortable with the friendship, you can take things slowly and bit by bit. You will be more familiar and confident in the other person. Starting a relationship in this way also ensures that you can understand each other, and there will be nothing to get in the way of the both of you being honest with each other on some issues such as sex.
You will also be more open about all the issues you face and solve your problems more amicably. This way, your romantic relationship will benefit both of you, and it will be able to last for much longer as opposed to a one-sided relationship where it is only the one side that benefits.

Women who are happy and positive will most likely wear a favorite dress and perhaps even spice it up with jewelry. Women who are sad or depressed will wear baggy clothing or jeans with a sweatshirt. Experts say you're most likely not going to want to wear an outfit you wore during a hard situation.

Bloggers around the world dress up and post selfies in front of the mirror. Why? It helps to regain happiness. We dress up to communicate with the world what we feel. And often times those who do it well influence others.
Attention
The lack of attention that often comes from childhood is another reason why some dress up and those people are easy to spot. They love highlighted labels on their clothing, it screams luxury, it screams rich and unapproachable. In reality these individuals are often lonely and in need of love.

• It is their attachment style. Some people instead of craving long-term intimacy, opt for something casual so that they can remain independent. • Online dating is a bit impersonal, therefore people rarely make strong bonds and this makes moving on easier. • They don’t see the relationship working out. • The communication wasn’t very smooth in the beginning. • The person doing the ghosting may be too busy with work or other commitments. • He/she wasn’t into you.
How to Overcome Questionable State of Mind When One is Ghosted?

From talking to loved ones on their mobile phones to communicating with family and friends via text messaging, the technological advancements available during these periods of lockdowns have been very beneficial.
Though there is nothing like direct human communication live, some people are still looking for creative ways to meet new people. This is especially true for people who are searching for a mate that they will not only date but can make a life commitment like marriage. That being said, here are some safe ways that people can find new potential friends to spend time with.
Each one reach one - Old Fashioned Virtual Meetings
If you want to be safe while meeting new people, there are many ways to meet new people and stay connected. For instance, if you really want to meet other people out of your present circle, join a group that requires invitation only. Simply stated, ask a friend or family member to introduce you to a virtual group with people who have a common interest. Just like you may be invited to a physical social gathering, you can be invited to virtual gatherings that you can attend, too.

Agree to Virtual Meetings and share common interest that you like
If hosting your own group is successful, you can always keep in touch with these new acquaintances. For instance, you may want to keep in touch by skype and other means of communications before and after corona.

Today, with all of the mandates and quarantines that people are experiencing all over the United States and abroad, meeting others is a challenge within itself.
