Are You Over-Tolerant in Your Relationship?
4 Signs the Answer Might Be Yes!
http://dressart.vstore.ca
Relationships between two emotionally balanced, relatively mentally healthy individuals can result in mutual fulfillment and support when both partners are committed, communicate, and have mutual respect for one another. However, if one or both partners have personal issues that cause harm to themselves and/or the relationship, then the situation can rapidly become toxic. For many people, this is enough to cause a breakup, but for others, this situation highlights a set of traits that cause the individual to stay in the relationship, even if it is causing him or her significant emotional or even physical harm. This phenomenon has been referred to as codependency, megatolerance, and basically describes behavior that is excessively tolerant. Here are 4 signs you might be over tolerant in your relationship:
1. You deny or rationalize how bad the behavior is in your own mind. This may be accomplished psychologically by comparing how bad your partner's actions are compared to others. However, just because one car accident has a worse result than another doesn't mean either is desirable!
2.You make excuses for, or hide your partner's behavior to others. You might feel motivated not only to protect his or her reputation, but also your own, since you might be feeling shame about how others will judge the way you are allowing yourself to be treated. If you can, you are likely to excuse your partner's behavior if it is found out - and you might even try to cover for him or her by fulfilling whatever responsibility he or she has shirked.
3.You feel as if you can't live without this person and feel driven to do whatever it takes to keep things going. This includes dropping arguments if you encounter too much resistance and it feels like rocking the boat. Ultimatums may be dropped, and you might actually feel a sense of strong anxiety at the idea of being without your partner no matter what he or she does.
4.You worry excessively about how your partner will manage without you if you do leave. You feel as if you are indispensable to him or her, and feel responsible for how he or she will react. This may hold you in the relationship out of feelings of guilt, even if you believe it would be healthiest for you to leave.By the way, what is holding you back from making the best choices to achieve the life you deserve?

Traditional Dresses of Pakistan
Dress is the identity of any nation. It is the thing which tells you the nationality of a person without even asking. Every country has its own traditional dress. So is the case with Pakistan. Our traditional dress is the shalwar kameez. This is good for all men, women and children of Pakistan. It is worn and is equally popular in all the provinces, cities and villages of Pakistan. The shalwar kameez holds equal importance in both ceremonial wear and casual wear. Women like to dress up in shalwar kameez most of the time and also during different ceremonies. Same holds true for men and children of the country. Shalwar is like a loose pajama and is similar to the trousers. It is wide near the thighs and the waist. Near the bottom it is tapering. The kameez is a shirt and the seams of the shirt are kept open. The seams are open normally below waist line. This dress gives you great freedom of movement and is also very easy and simple to wear. Then another important dress is the achkan. It has been the dress of nobles for long and is now worn extensively in Pakistan on different occasions, mostly ceremonial. It can be referred to as a long jacket. The jacket reaches the knees and there are buttons in the front of the jacket. In some cases it may even go lower than the knees. It also has long sleeves. This dress has been long associated with aristocracy. It is now worn by most desert dwellers in Pakistan.Kurta is also an important traditional dress item. It is similar to a shirt but is quite loose in fitting. The length of the kurta goes up to the knees of the wearer. It can be worn with either jeans or a shalwar. The Kurta is also worn by women in many western countries. In Pakistan, kurta holds importance amongst both men and women. Different materials can be used to make a kurta and normally it is up to the wishes of the user that what style and material one wants to be used in one’s kurta. Men also love to wear waist coats with the kurta and also with shalwar kameez. It gives a very tidy look to the dress. The Pakistani culture is very rich as far as clothing is concerned. These clothes are famous not only in Pakistan but also in Afghanistan, India and Bangladesh.
Mehndi Designs In Pakistan
In Pakistan mehndi is known more commonly as Henna. This is a plant whose leaves leave an impression on the skin – particularly palms and feet – of women very much like a tattoo. However, while the tattoo is permanent, Mehndi or Henna effects lasts about three to four weeks at best. The Mehndi or Henna color varies from dark red to deep brown depending upon how long the henna is kept on the skin. Sometimes, addition of oil and lemon make the color darker and last longer.
The Use Of Mehndi or Henna in Pakistan
There are very intricate designs that are painted on the hands and feet of women in Pakistan with Henna. This tattooing is a way to beautify the woman for a special occasion which is mostly her wedding. There is a special phase in the wedding ceremony, called the Mehndi which spreads over two full days. One day is when the groom applies Henna to his hands and feet – though this more symbolical than beautifying; and the second day at bride’s house when it is applied not only to her but all her friends as well.
The bride gets her hands and feet done with intricate designs - hands are usually drawn upon until the elbow and feet up to the calf muscles. This is a fun time for all the young unmarried girl friends of the bride.
Use of Mehndi or Henna As A Beauty Agent
Women in Pakistan are generally very conservative as beautifying themselves may classify them as vain and attract negative attention and even castigation from the religious heads and male family members. Women are required to be subservient to the male in Pakistan society, according to the interpretation of the Islamic religion. Nonetheless, a few liberties are allowed to women when it is done with the purpose of making themselves more presentable to their husbands – as a duty of a faithful wife.
Henna therefore is used as a natural beautifying agent. One way is by drawing exceptionally beautiful designs on the hands and feet during festivals and other family celebrations; and another way is to apply to the hair. Henna is an excellent conditioner for hair which encourages the growth and the natural bounce of the hair. For women who have premature white hair, it provides an excellent way to hide it as Henna applied regularly gives a dark red hue to the hair.
In fact many men also use Henna for their hair (both on the head and the beards) for the color and the health of the hair.
Designs of Mehndi or Henna For Women
When used for weddings and other special occasions women take the help of professional Henna designers who have learnt a great number of designs for hands and legs. The hands are decorated both the sides (palms and opposite side) and it sometimes takes more than three hours for application only. The paste once applied needs to be kept as long as possible on the hands and legs; the longer it is kept, the better the color would be. The belief is that the darker the color of the Henna on the hands the more the husband would love the wife.
Needless to say that such designers charge a hefty amount for the application, a price that is happily born by the bride for the joy it gives. Henna is considered as one of the most auspicious symbols of the marriage ceremony.
