1. The relationship should be natural, easy and uncomplicated: The truth is that all relationships take time, effort, commitment and energy. You need to make time for each other, to do fun things together, to work on communication, and to learn to negotiate and compromise.

2. The relationship should be conflict free: Because we are each individual and unique we all disagree with others at times, so conflict is natural, and not to be feared. In fact, conflict can force us to confront our differences, and to grow as individuals, and as couples too.

3. Soul mates are romantic: Real life is not the movies, and love can be expressed in countless different ways, and still be genuine. Look out for all the signs that show your partner cares, and don’t be disappointed if they’re not “the stereotype”. Don’t force them to be something that is maybe nor their style.

4. You should always see things the same way and have the same opinions, outlooks and beliefs: You both have different backgrounds and have individual brains so you’re going to sometimes differ in the way you look at life. That needn’t be a problem – you don’t want to be clones.

5. My soul mate will always like and love me: Consideration, respect and a concern for your partner are symptoms of a loving relationship. But being rude and disrespectful or irresponsible are not endearing qualities that build relationships. Instead, we need to give to get – as it’s not “all about me”.

“There’s a corner of my heart that is yours. And I don’t mean for now, or until I’ve found somebody else, I mean forever. I mean to say that whether I fall in love a thousand times over or once or never again, there’ll always be a small quiet place in my heart that belongs only to you.”

— Beau Taplin

A Texas man went to the ER with a blood alcohol level of 0.37, but swore he hadn’t been drinking. For years, people thought he was a “closet drinker” because he often became randomly drunk and claimed he didn’t know why. Doctors found that he had auto-brewery syndrome, a condition which caused intoxicating fermentation inside his stomach whenever he ate a lot of carbs. Source Source 2

Chromo Valdez: Glitch Landscape Gifs

Chromo Valdez is the art project of a touring musician who delivers appliances for money and creates glitch art for fun. He has created a series of fascinating glitch landscapes that are a perfect representation of the glitch aesthetic; deconstruct the image of the world you THINK you are seeing on the computer screen into what it really is: digitized circuity fooling your eyes. Here nature and the computer are presented to your eyes simultaneously, and the results are both beautiful and thought provoking.
