This e-book helps men get the tactics of gaining trust from the ladies they adore in their lives.<br><br>Tip number one. PUT YOURSELF IN HER SHOES You may have already heard of this. However, empathy is not an overrated thing at all. We are different, at least in some ways. So, if you’re not ready to see a situation from another perspective too, how can you really understand what’s going on? There is truly no doubt that men and women see relationships from varying angles, but a desire for trustful behavior isn't reserved for one gender. Indeed, you’ll find that if you look at the situation from her perspective, there are similarities to what you’re thinking yourself. Do you want her to be honest and trustworthy with you? Do you want to actively plan activities you'll do together? Do you want to know her circle of friends and see that she's letting you into her life? Do you want to know that she's showing trust? See, it all comes full circle! Your lady is in a similar situation. She wants you to show her that she's an essential component of your life, not that you want to keep her at arm's length. This involves restraining yourself without explaining why, not asking for “freedom” aggressively, not ghosting or gaslighting her (at all). After all, don’t you want the same things? Tip number two. BE HONEST WITH HER Honesty is the foundation that keeps everything else together in your relationship. If you don’t reinforce honesty daily, it’ll slowly disappear. Note that being sincere doesn’t imply being utterly frank. There’s a big difference between “you look better in other skirts, sweetie” and ”that skirt looks absolutely miserable on you.” You don't desire to be ruthlessly transparent unless you and your lady agree that it’s an essential part of your relationship. Otherwise, share your thoughts and opinions, although respectfully and neutrally. You want to formulate quality conversations without appearing like you're set on arguing. In other words, don’t treat her like she’s a fragile person who can't recognize the truth, but you shouldn't be downright mean with her either.

A dying man recounts the story of the most amazing person he has ever met, a brilliant, Soviet linguist whom he calls Youriko. It is a tale of love, daring-do, spies and danger set in Japan, Germany, Turkey, the USA, Canada and the UK, but mostly in the Soviet Union of the Seventies. Two girls, born thousands of miles apart in Kazakhstan and Japan just after World War II, meet and are like peas in a pod. They also get on like sisters and keep n touch for the rest of their lives. However, one wants to help her battle-scarred country and the other wants to leave hers for the West. They dream up a daring, dangerous plan to achieve both goals, which Andropov, the chief of the Soviet KGB, is told about. He dubs it Operation Youriko and it is set in motion, but does it have even the remotest chance of success? Andropov’s Cuckoo is based on a ‘true story’ related to the author by one of the protagonists.

A stone by any other name… Can lead to murder. Rosemary Grey, who’s just getting settled into the charming town of Paperwick, Connecticut, is looking forward to the holiday season. She’ll be moving into her snug cottage at Jack and Charlie’s farm—so she’ll have her best friends right next door, and she’s loving her new job as a history professor at Paperwick University, home of the Fighting Trout. The fact that she sees the shy Professor Seth McGuire, from the anthropology department, on campus, might have a little something to do with the smile on her face and the spring in her step. But Rosemary soon discovers that the cozy, tucked-away village, has a longstanding mystery in its midst. Thirty-five years ago, what appeared to be a rune-covered megalithic stone was discovered. There were those who believed the runes scattered across the stone were created by the indigenous peoples who’d inhabited the area—but some believed the runes were Norse in origin, lending credibility to the idea that Vikings had once walked the land. None of the theories about the stone could be proved, however, because it went missing almost as mysteriously as it had appeared. Searches proved fruitless and no one could imagine who could possibly slip away with a two hundred fifty-pound slab of granite. Nevertheless, the legend of Bjørn the Lost Viking was born, along with an annual festival that commemorates the stone, the first snow of the winter, and Norse culture. When a twist of fate leads to the discovery of the fabled missing runestone—and a body is found lying next to it—Rosemary and friends will have to separate legend and myth from fact and solve the crime. Seth is targeted as one of the prime suspects, so there’s no time to waste! You’ll want to curl up with a warm, spicy mug of Mrs. Potter’s Glogg and a warm blanket to enjoy this exciting cozy holiday adventure!

Being apart from the lady you like can be one of the difficult things you ever have to do. So how do you make sure that the girl misses you while you're gone? This e-book gives you up to 50 ways to make her miss you.<br><br>Tip number one. Minimize the amount of time you spend together If you want the girl to miss you when you're apart from one another, then you can't spend too much of your free time with her. You should hang out with her enough to make her see how awesome, fun, and interesting you are, but not so much that she starts to take you for granted or feels like you've run out of things to say to each other. Make an effort to see her once or twice a week, but ensure that she's not the only to-do on your social calendar, or she'll start to think that she can have you whenever she wants. Tip number two. Limit your phone time with her If you and the girl you are interested in talk on the phone, ensure that you keep your conversations relatively short so she doesn't assume you have nothing better to do than to talk to her all the time. You can talk to her to set up plans or to see how she's doing for some few minutes, but you shouldn't let the conversation drag on so long that you've run out of things to say. To keep her interested, you want her to feel like she can never run out of things to say to you once you meet. Don't tell her everything that you're thinking or everything that's happening in your life over the phone. Save some of it for when you actually meet her in-person.
