Carlos21 If nothing major is wrong to cause the negative feelings, I'm going to suggest starting your day with a (forced, if you must) smile on your face. You'd be suprised how your mood improves just by smiling for a while. Then start enjoying simple things and...

How does Unconditional Love work in a relationship, when one partner does not feel appreciated?

Carlos21 Hi,i'm going to take a christian point of view with this one. We've been commanded to love one another and to lay our lives down for our friends (in the bible; John 14:9-13). So I'd say love the person unconditionally. About the appreciation, look at your...

Carlos21 If I was able to help or at least call 911. I would help. I think it would be instinctive especially if a child is involved. You never know when you can save a life and I wouldn't want to regret.
