Personal space

Like humans, our beloved four-legged friends deserve and often need their own personal space. Dogs and cats, like all of us, are prone to drowsiness and irritability if you violate personal boundaries. It is important that they have a place to go when they are experiencing these emotions. It’s best if you allocate your pets their own territory.We’ve already made it easy for you to find the perfect place for your friend. You’ll also see below a few bonus products!

Relationships are an important part of our lives, but some of them, unfortunately, do not go so well. When you feel like your partner is being abusive, and you wonder how to get out of an abusive relationship, we encourage you to trust your instinct and leave them. Since it is hard to figure out if your relationship is actually toxic, we want to give you some tips to get out of an abusive relationship.

Parenting is a very complex subject that requires a lot of work and effort. When it comes to teaching and raising children, every parent has their own beliefs or methods, and rules really aren’t everything. The most important thing is to raise self-sufficient and happy children, and for that, some celebrities have their own secrets, even if they may seem a bit strange.

It can be exciting to meet a new dog when you’re walking down the street or at the park. No matter if they are big or small, some doggos can’t help but transmit joy and cuteness wherever they go, so much so that sometimes we can’t resist the temptation to approach them and pet them. However, if we do it in the wrong way, we might scare them and instead of having fun, we’ll end up with a bad experience. And that can happen even with dogs that are usually friendly.

The road to our beloved psychotherapists is paved with the good intentions of our parents. In most cases, our mothers and fathers really only wanted the best for us but still, many years later, their adult kids struggle to overcome the consequences of their upbringing. Moreover, a part of them repeats the mistakes of their parents who said the same phrases to their kids that a while back had also been hurt by the same rhetoric.

When we feel sad, we need our loved ones’ support. But sometimes words of support only aggravate negative feelings. Toxic positivity encourages us to ignore emotions, devalue problems, and impose unreasonable optimism. Some phrases may seem positive, but in fact, they only provoke negative emotions.

All mothers want their children to go to bed without their help, to behave in stores and in public, and to be quiet when their parents are talking on the phone. And mothers also want to have some free time for themselves and some time to spend with their husbands. It turns out that this is all possible. A woman from Russia went to live in France, got married there, had 2 children, and discovered a unique child-raising system there.

Parents don’t always think about what they’re saying to their child. Sometimes they might yell at them after a hard and tiring day, other times, they might ignore their kid’s fears. In most cases, all this is done for educational purposes and with the best objectives. But as we know, good intentions are not always enough and sometimes parents’ ambitions or inattentiveness might spoil their kid’s life greatly.

Pets bond with their humans like babies do. Just like attention-seeking toddlers, they follow their owners around, bring them toys to play with, and find it difficult to understand the whole concept of personal space.

Around the world, people just have their own way of doing things. So it comes as no surprise that certain things that you don’t normally pay attention to, even simple things you do when going to a restaurant or going shopping, might actually be considered offensive or strange somewhere else. In fact, some things that you might find offensive, like yelling or throwing a tantrum in public, might actually be considered polite or normal in another country.

There is a reason why classical literature authors put so much attention into the movements of the eyebrows and eyelashes of their characters. Modern researchers have proven that we transfer up to 93% of information non-verbally. By the way, non-verbal communication is not just our body language and mimics, but even the smells and the objects we surround ourselves with.

Cats are the only asocial animals that we’ve managed to become friends with. And considering the way they behave in society with us, their owners, there is nothing surprising about the fact that we often don’t understand them. For example, all the bad things they do when they violate our personal space is just them wanting attention.

50-100 years ago, science fiction books mentioned devices that allowed people to communicate when they were far away from each other, as well as space satellites that could transmit signals. But no one thought back then that all this could become a reality. But now, we have cell phones, the internet, quadcopters, and microwaves in our daily life.

The only area that people of both sexes are comfortable letting strangers touch is their hands, according to a study. But women around the world regularly have to deal with unwanted physical interactions and it’s pretty common that women get touched on their waist when someone is trying to get past them in the crowd. Although, for some people, this gesture may not seem like a big deal at first, it actually may be perceived as offensive and intrusive by many women.

Some pets are real stalkers and want every bit of their owners’ love and precious time. It’s them who you see first thing in the morning, it’s them who never let you “suffer” alone in the shower, and it’s them who always want to get lost in a book together with you.

A sociologist from the University of Maryland, Steve Martin, found out that almost every 3rd woman between the ages of 35 to 45 has 2, or sometimes even 3, children. There used to be an opinion that only housewives have big families, but that situation is changing. Martin discovered that almost all women over 30 with a higher education and career have at least 2-3 children.

Stepping on the escalator can pose an entirely new dilemma: whether to walk down or stand on the steps. For years, we’ve compromised by making the standers stay to one side to make way for the walkers. However, a study has shown that it is more efficient if nobody walks on the escalator. And that is just one of the many reasons why it’s better not to walk on the escalator.

Society has certain expectations for boys and girls. In addition, old-fashioned, century-old traditions dictate how children of different genders should behave, what hobbies they should have, and even how they should feel. In reality, some of these rules should be ditched in modern life.

Pets are an essential part of our lives. But sometimes they deliberately cross all of their boundaries. This can be kind of cute, like when your cat uses you as a pillow. But sometimes they raise your stress levels when they devour your birthday cake or the groceries you just bought at the store. This raises the question, is it truly possible to get mad at your four-legged friends?

Having a pet is never boring, but sometimes our cats and dogs outdo themselves by surprising us with new quirks. The wacky poses they choose for sitting and sleeping, the most inventive ways they invade our personal space, and the ways they lovingly gaze into our eyes when they need something — they will never stop proving how witty and creative they are.

When it comes to riding on a plane, it’s inevitable to run into problems with fellow passengers that can turn your few hours of flying into a living nightmare. However, we have to keep in mind that we are all packed into a confined space that we can’t really escape, and our stress levels are pushed to the limit. That’s why it’s best for all of us to be more considerate of the people around us and stop doing things that might be taken as rude or annoying in order to have a pleasant flight.

If you have pets, you’ve probably noticed pretty often that they don’t show any respect for your privacy. When a dog or a cat wants your attention, they will get it no matter what, even if means peeping into your shower or laying right on your face.

All the events in our lives are connected. A movie that you watched before going to bed, for example, can affect your sleep position. And believe it or not, your sleep position can reveal some details about your future love life.

Do you often hold doors open for other people? How about parking close to another car in an almost empty parking? These are the things we do almost subconsciously. In this article, we found out what scientists think about it. It turns out that for every unspoken rule there is a simple explanation.
