Here are a few signs someone wants to be your lover, not just friends.

Do you believe in love at first sight? Or maybe you even experienced it with someone?
Attraction is not enough for a meaningful relationship. A deeper connection between two people is required for a couple to survive its ups and downs – a connection we call compatibility. It means to share values, beliefs, interests and lifestyle. It means being able to negotiate, set boundaries, solve problems and respect each other.
Understanding the difference between the two can get confusing sometimes, but when you know what to look for, you can see if it’s just chemistry, and not compatibility.

Have you ever met someone who could fake their intelligence to fool everyone? They dazzle others with big words and lofty ideas, convincing everyone of their vast brainpower, but eventually, it all turns out to be a ruse, leaving you none the wiser. They’re called pseudo intellectuals, where “pseudo” means “false” and “intellectual” means “an intelligent person.” How can we spot pseudointellectuals before we get sucked into their false persona?

Are you struggling with low self esteem but don't know it? Seeing value and worth in yourself despite what others think and what you go through is important to your overall wellbeing. It can affect how you think, feel, and act towards yourself, and also impact how you let others treat you. While many may think that low self-esteem looks like someone who is sitting alone by themselves not wanting to do anything all the time, it can actually manifest in a number of different ways, some which may surprise you.

Trauma can affect anyone at any point in life, including you. Not only difficult experiences during early childhood, but also events later in life can trigger significant trauma in individuals. The American Psychology Association defines trauma as any experience that results in significant fear, helplessness, confusion, or other disruptive feelings. These feelings are so intense that they can have a long-lasting negative effect on a person’s mental health and attitude. Here are a few experiences that can generate trauma.

Do you feel guilty when you are upset for no reason? Like many others, you may think that you’re just ‘being ungrateful’ or that it’s wrong to feel sad, angry, or anxious when there’s no apparent reason for you to feel this way. But what if there’s more to it than that? What if you’re not actually ungrateful, but depressed? How do you tell the difference?

Feeling broken?
The feeling of being overwhelmed by work, the feeling when life deals you blow after blow and it doesn’t seem like things will ever get better.
The feeling that you’ll never reach your goals, no matter how hard you try, and that everyone can see and is focused on your faults and failings.
But when all seems hopeless, what can you do to change this? What can you keep in mind so you can keep going and be prepared for when this next happens?
It can be a long, hard road that leads out of dark times, but I promise it will be worth it. The path out can be found.
