Downside of Love
Summary
Most of us have all gone through a break-up at least once in our lives. For those who haven't, you aren't missing much. The hurt, the regret, the sadness and the feeling of failure are just some things that go along with breaking up a relationship. Sometimes we see it coming and other times, it is dropped on us like a nuclear bomb. Well, not that drastic, but if you're the one it's dropped on, it certainly feels like that world is coming to an end! Well, don't fret! The good news is, your world is not coming to an end, in fact there have been millions of people over the centuries who have survived break-ups and moved on to new and better relationships! And guess what? You can, too! Maybe you got that call from your significant other that you "need to talk", or your partner has cheated on you and fell in love with someone else or things just didn't work out well with you both and it was a mutual break-up. Even if it's a mutual break-up on both your ends, the hurt and sad feelings are still there. Because, no matter what, you shared a part of your life with this person and feelings were there, even if they are not there now. You did care for each other at one time or another and maybe you still do. Every situation is different. No matter what the reason for breaking up was and how your relationship ended, well or bad, the feelings after a break-up are pretty much the one and the same. There is always that feeling of sadness, loss, failure, regret, blame, etc... So many emotions to deal with! And then there's the feeling of if you are ever going to meet a new person and if you are ever going to fall in love again. Well, as the saying goes, "When you meet that one person that you spend the rest of your life with, you understand why all the other relationships didn't work out." It is so true too! I was in a relationship for a long time with someone. We had future plans together, talked about all the things we were going to do, and we thought we were soul mates and made for each other. Then one day, I got the message in an email. It was a Dear Jane email letter stating that he had fell out of love with me.

For Cats Only
Summary
Hello, my little kittens and those cats who have not yet mastered the art of training your human. I, Miss Kitty, will guide you through the world of humans and how to train them. You see, humans don't come with manuals. However, they think they have cornered the market on manuals on how to raise and train us feline masterminds. Correction. Cats can't be trained. I repeat: Cats cannot and will not be trained. Humans seem to have this misconception that we cats are trainable. Wrong! We choose our humans and everyone knows that. Your human did not choose you! You chose them! Whether they knew it or not, we made the choice of going home with our humans. For example; say you were at a pet store and you saw your human come inside the pet store. You think to yourself, "Well, he's a little round around the waist, that means he eats well, which means he will feed me really well. I want to go home with him today." Then, you meow and put on your best kitten face and play with a ball and act really cute. I know, it's demeaning, but you're a kitten, what do you know about anything? You chose your human and made him realize that. Your human sees you and picks you up. You've already staked your claim on him and snuggle up to him and purr and look cute, which of course comes natural for us cats, looking cute and all. Your human takes you home and then the fun begins! This is where you need to learn how to train your human so that you can live in peace and harmony by your own rules. Trust me, it will happen. All you have to do is follow this guide and I will teach you everything you need to know! Just remember, never, never let your human - or humans if you decide to live with a pack of them - never let them see this book. If you do, I shall get out the big water bottle, and we all know that water bottles are evil and have no place in our homes and should be destroyed!

Fun Guide to Online Dating
Summary
There once was a time when a bar or nightclub was the place to be to pick up a guy or girl for dating. But, ever since the Internet has hit, online dating sites are becoming more and more “the place” to be for meeting others. Over time, different dating fads have come into play such as newspaper and magazine personal ads, television dating shows, speed dating, video dating, etc. Now there is online dating, which combines all the factors of the aforementioned and brings potential partners to you in the touch of a fingertip! Since the inception of the Internet, which happens to be the human race’s favorite mode of communication these days. Everyone has an email, instant messenger, and is a member of one or more social networking sites. All communication is at the tip of our fingertips in an instant. We are in a world where we want things done ASAP. The youth of today have no idea how it was back in the ‘70s and ‘80s, and before that, before the existence of the Internet and the computer age. We used to have to physically write a letter and drop it in a blue mailbox that sat on the corner in our neighborhood, or even, pick up a telephone and call someone, instead of text messaging or electronically e-mailing them. Even though, personally, I didn't meet my significant other through online dating, I did meet him on a social network. He had been on my friend’s list for over a year and we casually made comments to each other. At one time we had both been in relationships at the same time. We did have a lot of mutual friends and one day, we just chatted on instant messenger on the social networking site and everything else fell into place. He lived two hours from me, so it was long distance for a while, but we made it work. And with the information and tips I am going to share with you, you too, can find happiness through world wide web.
