Most Happy

Here are some more information for Most Happy:

Number one piece of relationship advice is to be yourself, always. Many guys just haven't the self confidence to think they can catch that goddess, so they put on a show. But confidence is king. Have you noticed some of the best looking women with some of the worst looking guys? You will find that these guys are self confident and this confidence outweighs their poor looks and they still catch that lady.

Remember the little things. Offer to take her car for an oil change or give her a bag candies from time to time. Men seem to think big is better when it comes to gestures towards their lover but it's the little things they remember.

Next we move onto appreciation. Appreciate her. Do not ever take her for granted. Let her know that you love and value her, and let her know often.

The next thing is difficult for most guys, nevertheless it's an essential ingredient. Do not look at other women while you are out with her. They see this, no matter how sneakily you try to do it they see it. They think you are making a direct comparison between her and the stranger. They do not understand that it's what guys like to do. We look, doesn't mean we are going to touch. Still, women have a hard time dealing with this. They have a biological setting somewhere that screams 'monogamy'. Women look for a partner that can be a provider for them for life. Keep the ogling to a minimum while you are out with them.

Make her laugh. It's an old one but it's still a good one. If men seek great looks in a woman, they look for a sense of humor in us. Keep her laughing and keep the relationship alive.

The next piece of relationship advice is to seek common interests. If you got together because of a common hobby or interest that's great. But try to take an interest in her other passions and likes. If it means watching the odd girly movie then do it. It shows you care and are willing to give your time for her, she will cherish you for that.

Grooming...if you get the girl you don't have to try any more, right? Wrong! Women are less sensitive to looks than we are but they still like a guy to make the effort. If you usually don't shave while you are off work, start to! If she liked your fashion sense in the beginning, then keep up with the trends. Just because you've caught her doesn't mean you can get sloppy. She can easily slip out of your net.

You need to be able to mix with her family and friends. And she needs to know this. A woman needs a man to be part of her larger circle, especially after the early passion is over. Make the effort to get on with her parents and friends. Even if you can't say anything nice about them you needn't say anything nasty. A woman will rely heavily on the feedback from her circle of friends to validate you. Make the effort.

Consider her feelings always. Women are fragile. This is hormonal, and if you can be sensitive to whatever mood she is in, you can stay on her good side.

Last piece of relationship advice is to be prepared to try new things. At the start of your relationship everything is new. The way you kiss, where you go to eat, even what you eat. It's all new but it eventually becomes routine. This is when you need to shake things up a bit. Go to a new restaurant or take a spontaneous weekend away. These things go a long way to keeping your relationship fresh.

What it Means to 'be Happy'

Everyone wants to be happy, but what does happiness really mean? How do we know if we're happy? Can anyone be happy all of the time? How do we find happiness? When we talk about life happiness, these are the questions that we ask.

Our perception of life happiness is as individual as the way we perceive hot or cold. For all of us, it's sort of the same, yet it's also different. Every individual person is different, and therefore each persons description of what makes a life happy will also be different.

Dictionary.com says happiness is:

1. Characterized by good luck; fortunate

2. Enjoying, showing, or marked by pleasure, satisfaction, or joy

Webster's Dictionary says happiness is: A state of well-being and contentment

So, if we use these definitions, in order for us to say we are happy we would be fortunate, showing pleasure and feeling content. That makes sense. Most of the people that we think are happy usually show these characteristics, so lets use this definition and go from there.

Can I have life happiness if I don't think I'm fortunate? Hmmm, that's an interesting question isn't it? Most people are happy when they feel fortunate or blessed by good luck, and most people who feel unfortunate or feel like they have lots of bad luck are unhappy. BUT, perception is everything. A person can break their leg in a skiing accident (bad luck) and still be happy and smiling because they feel blessed and fortunate (probably because they didn't break both legs!). They might be happy because they know that their leg will heal, and because they were having such fun skiing (up until they ran into the tree at 100 miles/hour!!)! Get the picture?

Or a person could have what most of us would call good fortune and still seem not to have life happiness. There is an art to happiness, and some of us know it and some of us don't, but we all can learn.

Is life happiness the same for everyone? Probably not, even though the normal signs of happiness listed above in the dictionary definitions probably show up in every person who is happy. Different things make different people happy, so happiness and the pursuit of happiness cannot be the same. For example: I am a quiet type of person who loves to work from home and socializes only once or twice a week. You may be a very gregarious person who works in an office full of people and lunches with a different person each day and goes to a party every Saturday evening. We're both happy, but our lifestyles are very different. Besides that, what you view as something that would produce happiness may not be a priority for me. Maybe it makes you happy to go on wonderful ski vacations twice a year. It might make me happy to go on wonderful vacations in my back yard and to squirrel my money away. Both situations are right, and we are both happy.

How do you know if you're happy? The best way to tell if you are happy is to ask yourself how you are feeling. Really feeling. Do you feel at ease, relaxed and OK with how things are going on a pretty consistent basis? Then you're probably happy. Feel your body. Is your body relaxed, does it feel calm? You're probably happy. Remember, happiness doesn't come from anywhere but inside. If you are in tune with what is right for you, you will be happy. If you are trying to live someone else's definition of authentic happiness, you probably won't be.

Can anyone have authentic happiness all the time? Yes! Well, OK, if a terrible tragedy strikes, you probably won't be happy at that time. But, you can work through the tragedy and the accompanying emotions knowing that life happiness can and will return when you've taken time to properly allow healing. Otherwise, yes. You can be happy all the time. Maybe not jumping up and down and laughing happy every moment, but peaceful content happy, certainly, and that's equally valuable. Life's small irritants come and go each and every day. We have a choice whether we greet them with a calm smile or with an angry frown. Either is fine, but the calm smile will help you navigate life in a more happy state of being, and help you find happiness on a consistent basis. Remember, the art of happiness has a lot to do with perception.

Recent research on happiness shows what many of us have long suspected. Happiness, and the pursuit of happiness has more to do with an individual's perception and what's going on inside that person, than money, fame, or power. Even though those things may bring a feeling that is like happiness, it is attached to those things. Real happiness is much more attached to how a person perceives life. Luckily, if you are the type of person who has a "glass half empty" outlook on life, you can learn to have a "glass half full" attitude which will gain you happiness.
