Paying For Dinner on a Date

Today's Topic on CTT (Coffee Talk Thursday)
 Should the MEN or WOMEN Pay?
Now really, what are your thoughts? If you have a date with either your significant other, someone of interest, or even a friend, do you think the woman should take up the tab? I say YES!!! I know that it's old fashion for the man to pay for the meals, but come on... EVERY TIME?! Really, why should they have to pay all the time? If you are in a relationship then I feel it should go both ways, but now, if you just getting to know each other and your on your first date, then yes, maybe the guys can pay, but this doesn't mean, every time you go out on the town he is covering tolls, parking, drinks, and dinner. When my hubby and I go out, and I have no problem with picking up the bill, and he does it the next time we go out. It's all about balance. It can't always be him paying, and I don't mind it at all. A lot of people want the benefits of a wife or husband with the privileges of a bachelor or bachelorette. You need to realize that you can’t have it all one way, and in order to stay balanced you must practice balance.

-Getting the Spark Back into Your Relationships!
Have you lost your FIRE in your relationship? Don't lose hope if you have... you can get the FIRE back.
“Love is like a campfire: It may be sparked quickly, and at first the kindling throws out a lot of heat, but it burns out quickly. For long lasting, steady warmth (with delightful bursts of intense heat from time to time), you must carefully tend the fire.” ~ Molleen Matsumura

Welcome to YMM!!

Welcome to YMM (Your Modern Mom) Blog Everyone!!
This blog is here to re-claim our WOMANHOOD! As mothers we tend to forget to take care of ourselves. We devote so much time and energy into taking care of our families that we neglet ourselves. As a mom of three, I am so caught up with work, cooking dinner, taking care of the baby, making sure the boys complete their summer assignments, seeing to it that my husband needs are met, cleaning the house, that I have not done anything for myself in a very, very long time. How many of us do this? It's not intentionally, but throughtout the hassle of the family life, your job and other household chores, we don't even have the energy to do anything. I recently had my baby girl, and I see that finding time for myself is even harder. I thought to myself, when was the last time you really took some time to do something for me? And my answer is, it's been a very long time. What good will we be to our partners & childrens if we are not all there. Now the time has come for us as moms to re-gain our WOMANHOOD! To find the time for us, to do something at least once or twice a week for us. Here on YMM, the focus is on health/fitness, nutrition, fashion, our mental health, tips & trick of motherhood, our life & love, finance, and much more. This is were we all as mom can comfort and help from each other. Let's make the remaining of this year a time for me...MOMMY!!
