Living in the information explosion era of peace,  the values ​​of the people have rapid change, people began to become the substance, efficiency, getting a little numb feelings of love, unfailing love seems to become a myth, peopleonly occasionally in movies, novels,hard see the situation for love devotion. But today I saw the news I was shocked, in the July 20th shootings in Colorado, three men shot and killed by protected their girlfriends.


The three men Jon Blunk, Matt McQuinn and Alex Teves used their bodies to shield their girlfriends when James Eagan Holmes opened fire on the crowd at the Aurora Cineplex.

 I felt shocked Moving by so many men were instinctively willing to die to protect women they felt responsible for and love for.

Matt McQuinn,  dove on top of his girlfriend,  took the bullet that could have killed her.This is their pic below.




Jon Blunk (in the red shirt below) took his girlfriend, Jansen Young, to the movie in part because they were celebrating her graduation from veterinary school. Blunk is an ex-sailor with hopes of rejoining the military to become a Navy SEAL. He protected her with his body, and he died.

Alex Teves (in the beach picture below) shoved his girlfriend, Amanda Lindgren, to the floor as bullets flew all around them.he never hit the floor for himself,beacuse he want to save his girlfriend.






I think they use their blood and life to proved and remmind  people that:ture love can created Miracle，love give people Magic power.when they face the death,they brave enough to use their own body to block any damage from outside，leave the safe to their lover.


Perhaps only the deeds of these blood enough to remind people's numb nerves , love is so great, not out of reach, it is on our side, in each corner, and it could be explosived. We should chase and worship the ture love.

I met the girlfriend in October last year, another city near me. When I saw her in the video, a pair of huge eyes embedded in the high frontal, a little dark skin. Appears to be a very outspoken girl. She was on the verge of despair, because her ex who has been married, still pursuing her, and even more incredible was that she got in touch with his wife by phone, His wife seemed very helpless  for his actions. It is said that this man had cheated a few women (by rip-off,includes her money). I could see this matter dealt a serious blow to her, be seen from her depressed mood, she felt bad luck, she said what she ask for actually very simple, just want  a man to be love within  a real life.

But then twists and turns, a bit weird, she got a friend's advice,went to the dating site,hoping to meet her Mr.right someday. she did not know how to operate, just went to a website and sign up.

More incredible is that she basically does not speak English, but she wanted to marry a guy from oversea.

Interesting is her photo. When her showed off her photo,Several girls thought that  the photo could not show her great personality, She just used her face-shot with a webcam. A pair of innocent eyes looked very confused. Interesting that An older sister told her more directly::"I think  your photo will provoke a liar, because your eyes look confused,and you seem completely lost way.I advise you use the other one. "Although she was still willing to accept our views, but we worried that she might experience a very long time searching, after all, she seemed to have no idea, unprepared, but also wanted to go to the other side of the ocean to find her husband, which was really a bit ... Yet, I was still very much appreciated her frank, sincere and courageous.

However, I recently heard some of her messages. Last night I contacted her. We said hello to each other and she began to talked about her stuff. She is preparing for the  fiance reunion now. This made me stunned. What makes this love across time and space, also across borders so easily?

This should not be regarded as news, the magic is her fiance, a Chinese-Americans who working in the U.S. government, flied to China to meet her after 4days online chatting.What make you feel more surprise is：At this exciting time for the dawn ,they fell in love at first sight, just like all of the love story of a happy ending, they decided to spend their life together,forever.

We also talked about her picture, she was sure that really only put one on dating site. She said: "He likes my true face, a pair of lost big eyes and very sincere. Some people put the artistic photos, or making interesting pose what make him feel not reliable." Very interesting, people sometimes always thinking about things too complicated,ask for  too many skills .From her example can be seen, in fact, do not have any skills is the real best skills.My girlfrien's genuine and real attracted a  gentleman who far across the ocean ,and it became the bond of their marriage.

No matter by what means,  some people make their best side show in front of others, even the ideal side, while not the most real. People see only the best side of your strong performance. However, marriage is not about ideals, Need more true and plain. Because after all the romantic prelude, we are faced with a flat  and true life. The married life is not dressed in a gorgeous robe, but eat salted fish and Chinese cabbage together in stalemate but still enjoyable. This life is precisely what she wanted,also most Chinese girls want. So she has completed her very early wish.

So,  very interesting.

This article in chinese:我遇到这位女朋友是在去年的10月份左右，她在我附近的另一个城市工作。当时我看到了视频中的她，一双巨大的眼睛镶嵌在高高的额骨上，有点黝黑的皮肤。看起来是个非常直率的女孩。她当时正在绝望的边缘，因为她前面那位已经娶了老婆了，还在追求她，更为不可思议的是她和她的老婆都通过电话了，而且他的老婆对他的行为非常无奈。据说这名男子还先后骗过几个女人的钱（包括她的钱）。我可以看出来这件事情对她的打击很大，从她沮丧的语气中看出来，她觉得自己运气太差，她说她其实要求非常简单，只是想要一个男人好好过日子。

不过后来是峰回路转，有点不可思议，她得到了朋友的提点，想到了到互联网上面征婚，她也不知道如何操作，只是通过朋友给的一个比较流行的网站上面注册了。

更为不可思议的是，她基本上不懂英语，竟然想到嫁到国外去。

有趣的是她用的照片。当她把照片晒出来的时候，我们好几个女孩都觉得她放的照片不是很有个性，就是用摄像头把一张脸拍下来。照片那双无辜的大眼睛显得非常迷茫。一位比较年长的姐妹更加直接地告诉她，你这样的照片会招惹骗子，因为你的目光显得非常茫然，一副不知所谓的样子。虽然她还是乐于接受意见，但是我们大概心里面都会觉得她可能会经历很长一段时间的寻寻觅觅，毕竟她显得毫无头绪，毫无准备，而且还想去大洋彼岸找丈夫，这真有点......不过我心里还是非常赞赏她的直率，真诚和勇敢的。

然而不久前我听到了她的一些消息。于是昨天晚上我和她联系上了。我们互问近况。她原来正在筹备和美国的未婚夫的团聚。这个真让我愕然了。是什么让这跨越时空，跨越国界的事情轻而易举地发生了？

这本来就不算是什么新闻，神奇的是她的未婚夫，一位在美国政府工作的华人，竟然才和她在网上聊了四天就飞过来看她了，这一激动人心的时刻到来之际，他们一见钟情，并跟所有的爱情故事的美满结局一样，他们决定相守一生。

我们又谈到了她的照片，她确定说自己其实只放了一张。她说：”他喜欢我真实的面孔，一双迷茫的大眼睛非常真诚。网上好些个放艺术照，或者扭捏作态的让他感觉很不可靠。“很有趣，人们有时候总是把寻找伴侣的事情想得过于复杂，过于技巧化，从她的例子可以看出来，其实没有任何的技巧才是真正的技巧。我这位女朋友的真诚和真实感动了远在大洋彼岸的绅士，并成为他们婚姻的纽带。

不管通过什么途径，有的人会把自己最好的一面展示在别人面前，甚至是最理想的一面，而不是最真实的一面。人们看到的仅仅是你极力表现的最理想的一面。然而婚姻生活不是谈理想，有的是真实和平淡。因为一切的浪漫前奏过后，我们面对的是平平凡凡，真真实实，相濡以沫的生活。这种夫妻生活不是一袭华丽的睡袍，而是吃咸鱼和白菜也有滋有味的相持相守的过程。而这种生活恰恰是她想要的，也是大部分中国女人想要的。于是她找到一个和她过日子，并相守终身的人。

所以,这事情非常有趣。

I  just read that Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli  put out an official statement , that after 11 years of marriage, they are divorcing, but remain committed to parenting their 3 daughters though.

So sad that another long term couple is calling it quits. 11 years marriage and also 3 Adorable kids.what more,a few more years of dating before that, is a long time to know each other, especially in Hollywood!I am shock.

No mention of reasons behind the divorce, but this is her 2nd divorce, and she is just turning 40. I know she seems to be a very committed and busy mom, with some acting gigs here and there, and he is busy with Twilight, so what do you think?

Celebrities seem to be more likely to divorce, it is estimated that because of their communicative face a wide range of options, making the cost of divorce is lower than the average person. many marriages in China, even if there is a third party, or they have cracks,but still struggling to keep up, this is very common in ordinary people’s homes.Sometimes  for their children，sometimes for frame. Although the divorce rate in the celebrity circles of Asia is higher than civilians, but far less than the West. According to Wikipedia’s statistics, China’s divorce rate is 12.8% (2004), the United States is 34% (2009) ，I think This estimate relates to the concepts and culture.

In my view that marriage often need a dedication, sometimes it is a belief. For example, the Christian‘s divorce rate is generally low. The case of divorce are often means  a reshuffle of someone's life, which means that you need to re-start the formation of a new family, the ensuing adventure seems more.With children, the new family's relationship is more complex or tension. You meet the challenge more than ever. In any case, the children in a complete family which are the best to them, It will be a significant impact on his life.

You say: I make the greatest efforts, but he/she does not want to continue. Then we had to move forward, because we know we have done the best efforts, nothing to be ashamed, after all,as we said: tomorrow is another day.

Good News:See the picture below from wiki, the divorce rate and marriage rate of the American people are both declining, this is a good sign that people have a more rational choice of marriage, Are you happy now ?

♥ 10 keys to make a good harmony♥

【5】Learn about one another's cultures------IF you guys come from different country,I think that is common in nowadays .eastern culture is more traditional,The Western culture loves adventure and exploration. from an educational standpoint, a couple from different culture, could be helpful to both couples and our children in adapting to the internationalized age we live in.

【6】Communicate well-----Good Communication helps to build trust and strengthen in our relationship. allow you mate talk first,You will never see her or him roll her or his eyes at you when you say something because your mate will respect you.

【9】The same way to treat relationship-------If you have high ideals about love,one man one woman, a family eventually,100%Attention and effort to each other, so do not be surprise that his hands always find yours, If you enjoy lovers' world as more as often,do not date someone Too independent,do not shy to ask how much time would you like to spend with me,see if you can handle this with him or her.Make a  decision at the very beginning,do not push her or him,beacuse,you can never change people,we  are going to find the right one.

【10】the same attitude on career-------If you are very ambitious, want to have a career as wonderful as you can, but her or him  will always be content with things as they are now,never thinking about  promotion,then you are not right for each other.

what about your story?

For some reason,we have to find someone online,and it Makes the process more interesting and the range of choice extended to trans-regional, or even cross-bordermore.

In some case online dating sites were making  people meeting someone have chemistry and make a match.  online dating sites and alos social network may encourage  compatible with two people finding a strong connection.

 Overwhelmingly, people prefer to start out as friends before jumping into a romantic relationship. Friendship is the filter to finding a compatible match with 89 percent of men and 96 percent of women preferring to be friends before lovers. Sure, it may well be that girls are cultivating friendships and guys are cultivating future options, but it’s a critically important part of the courting process.

Starting out as friends is obviously the better way to do relationships. If you think  that’s the existential problem facing the dating site.Ada will advice you use some social network such as something below:

A lot of people make the long distance relationship work,I think it would not be such difficult,just need some reason,the reason is you are looking for each other,Have you two share the same 'core' values in life with each other? (Family, friends, money, work, dreams, ambitions, kids etc.)and also share similar interests?beacuse those are things you could do together.
If you find someone really click with you ,and you two  have the plan to get together,then I wish you successful,and I think you have a lot of patience, which means you maybe more easily overcome the difficulties you encounter in the future between you two.

In China we have The story of Cowherd and Weaver Girl, the story is a myth, but touched several generations.Cowherd and Weaver Girl is the Metaphor of long distance couples.Do you want to hear the story?Here goes:

Cowherd, a human being, and the Weaving Girl, a fairy. They fall in love with each other, get married,But sad that they were forced to separate and blocked by the Milky Way. Out of compassion for them,Only  on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month each year, flocks of magpies fly to form a bridge with their bodies over the Milky Way, allowing the Cowherd and the Weaving Girl to meet each other.Only once a year to mee though, but there is love forever in their hearts. Cowherd never married again.

Naturally, the seventh day of every seventh month of the lunar calendar has become Chinese Valentine's Day. It is named as  The Qixi Festival.On this day, Chinese women customarily look up into the night sky, searching for the Weaver Girl Star and the Cowherd Star(There are 2 stars's name we made in the sky) on both sides of the Milky Way and hoping to see their annual gathering. Meanwhile, girls on the ground hope to have clever hands and good sense, just like the Weaving Girl. They also pray for a happy marriage of their own. Thus, the Qixi Festival has been entrenched in Chinese culture.

In my view, mixing between different nationalities does not need to be the main consideration for couples who plan to get married. Even if each member is from the same country, they can not get over many troubles arising from dissimilarity in character or lifestyle.

The point for marriage, above all things, should be to focus on how deeply they love, trust and consider each other. If so, there will be the good harmony no matter which countries they are from.

Especially, from an educational standpoint, it could be helpful to both couples and their children in adapting to the internationalized age we live in.
