If you want to be healthy engage in sex regularly.

A recent study in Queens University in Belfast showed that sex a few times a week could fight the cold and flu, lengthen one’s life by promoting heart health and control cholesterol levels, provide weight loss and overall fitness, fight depression and ease joint, muscle and menstrual pain.

The Queens study suggests that the immune system has the ability of increasing when intercourse is experienced once or twice a week. Other studies based on the Queens University study have suggested that cardiovascular health could be improved by having sex three or more times a week.

Apparently, sex for men could reduce their “risk of heart attack or stroke by half. According to the Queens study, “a vigorous bout burns some 200 calories – about the same as running 15 minutes on a treadmill or playing a spirited game of squash. The pulse rate in a person aroused rises from about 70 beats per minute to 150, the same as that of an athlete putting forth maximum effort.”

08. October 2011

Make sure the one you are dating is not married. (Photo: inbruges.info)

One of the common problems that singles face in life, is not only on finding the person to love, but making sure that person had no romantic commitment in life. Finding out if your date is married is not an easy task, since the a married person on date an flatly deny it except if he or she is honest enough to admit it. Although the task is not easy there are some early warning signs that your date is already committed to someone else.

1. Hard to reach telephone lines

If you will have a hard time contacting your date in his or her home, office and mobile number the most likely reason is he or she is married and do not want their partner to discover he or she is having an illicit affair. Those persons who cannot be reached in their phones are not worthy to be trusted since they cannot be there with you if ever there is an emergency.

2. No permanent address

A person you are dating who has no permanent address is showing tell tale signs he or she is already married. If your date wants to constantly visit you at your office or house but will not allow you to do the same to him or her, there is a big possibility he is hiding the truth that he is already a married person. No person in his right mind would not give his exact address to the person he or she is courting if he or she unless they are hiding something.

3. Not keen to discuss personal life

Have you dated someone who refuse to reveal to you any personal information about him or her? That person could be hiding something from you that relevant information could be the fact that he or she is married. Remember if a person is really sincere in loving you he or she must tell you relevant information about his or he life.

4. Not too interested in public places

Another interesting signal that the one you are dating is when that person is not interested to go out on a date with in a regular basis in public places like mall, park and restaurants. You must realize that married persons who cheats on their mate by going on a date with single persons love to hide in places where they cannot be easily be found like the house of their date or places that are not frequented by people.

5. Odd calling hours

Another easy to detect sign that the person you are dating is married is when he or she calls you during odd and unexpected hours of a day. When he or she calls in the wee hours of the night when you are already sleeping. If he or she has no obligation why would he or she not call during normal hours unless they are hiding something.

6. Mum on pictures on wallet or belongings

If a person you are dating is not interested to discuss the photos of a woman and children in his wallet or persona belongings that person could be married. A person who have nothing to hide is confident in discussing anything that can be found in his or her wallet and personal belongings.

7. Afraid of PDA

If your date is afraid of holding your hands, kissing and hugging you in public there is a big tendency he or she married. A person who is free from any form of commitment is not afraid to engage in Public Display of Affection (PDA) if he or she really truly loves you.

8. No visible friends

A person who is courting you if he or she is indeed sure with their intention should also be open to tell you their friends. If he or she loves to go out with you without their friends the possibility is they are hiding something from you. Long lasting relationship do not rest on two people but the bunch of friends that around their relationship.

It is not good to look for the public most especially from your date if you drum your fingers on the table or the knee shake. What is bad about this type of movements is the fact that most of these are done subconsciously which means it hard to avoid. To counter this, a person just need to be fully aware of his body so that when this tendency starts to occur you can immediately focus yourself to the conversation and not allow this thing to ruin your date.

If you go on date always make sure you do a background check on your potential date. Do your best to get the name of your date especially if it is a blind-date so that you can have a chance to get an information on him before your meeting.
