Andrea Gerak: Andrea's Blog

In the article on How not to choose the right partner? Mistake #4 I mentioned a wonderful romance I have had, and that I have written a few poems to that man. I pointed to the Andrea's Stories blog (which I just updated a little bit a minute ago) to see the poems, but now I realized that I have only posted some of them on Facebook - so here is one. WHY DID YOU COME TO ME? Why did you come to me? Why did you call me? Why did you listen to me? Why did you look at me? Why did you talk to me? Why did you play with me? Why did you need me? Why did you get me? Why did you take me home? Why did you let me go? Why did you want me more? Why did you make me want you more? Why did you lift me up? Why did you give me fun? Why didn't you rush with that? Why didn't you break my heart? Why did you only make me smile? Why did you never make me cry? Why did you tell me sweet little lies? Why did you come for me from 1000 miles? Why did you say:"I wanna be with you"? Why did you make me wanna be with [...]

From the previous post How not to choose the right partner? Mistake #3, simply follows Mistake #4: when you don't look, only listen.  This one should be very simple, yet so many times we fall for the trap... Interesting that I have planned this topic as the next one for my series, and yesterday I bumped into exactly this in two different places. One was a friend's status update on Facebook, the other one was a blog post I read called No More I Love You's, by Wolynski (who has also contributed to my Mistake #3 article with his comment). Of course, the flowers, whispering I Love You's and sweet nothings, candle light and all that jazz, will fancy your girl and make a romance romance, they are all beautiful, they are the salt & pepper of a relationship - but would you eat salt & pepper by itself, without the meal? And here we are back at Mistake #2 where one should know first what kind of things one wants to share with the loved one, what would be the meal. And for that, [...]

Sending flowers for all my fellow girls, chicks, gals, sisters, women, ladies - did I miss anyone?

Here they are, look more stunning on black background and in larger size.
Have a wonderful one!

Not the Travolta movie (oh, I love that!), but a quick note on a recent happenstance. I started to write a series on relationships (How not to choose the right partner? Mistake #1, Mistake#2, Mistake #3 and there will come a few more), some of you have read it.
According to a few feedback, certain people became quite disturbed by it and the examples I gave (without names, of course).
For the time being, I withdrew my articles as drafts, until I decide if I wanna keep them or delete them forever. Probably I will publish them again, because from others I heard that it was helpful. (UPDATE, 2/March: I did restore them.)
What I have to say about it right now is this: there is no reason to get strongly emotional about it and hate me for it. Sure you can do it, if you think that that will solve anything.
But. If you recognize the persons in my examples of how to mess up a relationship and see that it is indeed so with them, why don't you help your friends with the issue? Or, if it's not your [...]

As I am getting some interesting feedback (pro and contra) on my previous posts Mistake #1 and Mistake #2, it's time to elaborate it a little more.
I take up now a point that I wanted to talk about a bit later: How the two people can have a happy relationship, if their lifestyles are different. Am I saying, for example, that an artist can only be happy with another artist? No, I am not: I know several happy couples where only one of them is an artist, so it can obviously work out well: a performing pianist with a wife who makes him a warm home and takes care of the children, a singer girl with a husband who keeps her feet on the ground and deals with the administrative matters, and so on, there are others as well.
The point is: how is your spouse actually supporting what you do. 
Mistake #3: 
Non-supportive partner Let's say, you always wanted to get on a motorbike and rooooaaaarrrr! But your girl says Noooo way, honey, it's too dangerous, and I love you so much, awwwww, yap, [...]
