DID YOU KNOW THAT: People In Love Are Less Able To Concentrate At Work?

Have you looked at love this way? According to a new study, the fact that you cannot concentrate at work may mean you are in love with your boyfriend…

The study which was published in the journal Motivation and Emotion says, people who are in love are less able to focus and to perform tasks that require attention.

Explaining the study, researcher Henk van Steenbergen said; ‘when you have just become involved in a romantic relationship you’ll probably find it harder to focus on other things because you spend a large part of your cognitive resources on thinking of your beloved,’.

According to MailOnline;

While passionate love usually involves enhanced, near-obsessive attention to your beloved, a lover’s concentration for daily tasks like study and work may actually be impaired, suggesting reduced cognitive control.

Mr van Steenbergen, together with colleagues from Leiden University and the University of Maryland, studied 43 participants who had been in a relationship for less than six months.

They were asked to perform a number of tasks, one of which included being timed as they sorted irrelevant from relevant information.

The more in love they were, the less able they were to hone in on the ‘relevant’ information. There was no difference between men and women.

Did She Really Say That? Becca Says She Was Prevented From Singing Ghana’s National Anthem Because She Was A Woman-Gender Discrimination

From where we sit, we do not see any reason why a country like Ghana would prevent Becca from singing the national anthem at a football match, simply because she is a woman. We’ve grown pass that and why will they even put her up in the first black knowing she is a woman and then later prevent her from singing it?

However, according to a speech Becca delivered recently at the UN Agencies Cultural Night, she was booked to sing at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi during the World Cup qualifier against Zambia. After all preparation and her name was mentioned, an order was received that should not be allowed to sing—-and she says it is because she was a woman and menstruates.

Things like this happen in Ghana? What do you think?

Check out what Becca said below;

In other words, there is no reason for us to be backward and wait to be herd like cattle to the Promised Land or slaughter house. Please pardon my French but I am sure you will tolerate my situation even more after you’ve heard this bit of psychological abuse I suffered from the system at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi during the World Cup qualifier against Zambia.

It had been arranged through the UNAIDS under its “Protect The Goal” campaign with FIFA and with all protocols observed i.e. the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Ghana’s Football Association, The Match Commissioner designated by FIFA, The Head Of Security at the Sports Council responsible for the Baba Yara Sports Stadium that I sing the National Anthem before the Black Stars match against the Chipolopolo of Zambia. In fact my singing of the National Anthem was so official that on the eve of the crucial match, national television reported it.

DO YOU KNOW THAT: ‘One Night Stands’ Are Not Worth It For Women As Most Do Not Fully Enjoy It!

Meeting someone on a night out and finding yourself in bed with the person after a bang is not worth it for women—-as this is more satisfying for men than women, according to a new study.

A study has found that women are twice as likely to orgasm when having ‘seks’ as part of a committed relationship, compared to one night stands.

And apart from the known regret and heartache one nigh stands cause for women, men on such missions are less interested in satisfying the women involved.

Why Relationships Do Not Last Today: Fast Food, Fast Wi-fi, Fast Cars & FAST LOVE

11/13/2013 10:16 am

by Edith Osei Bonsu

It has become alarming the rate at which divorce cases are flying around but I can’t say I am surprised though… Love has become a game of “the survival of the fittest”! Everything is so fast paced in our society these days: we’re talking fast food, fast wi-fi, fast cars, fast money, fast fame, fast talkers, heck – fast everything!

So it wouldn’t be presumptuous to add “fast love” to the list! I mean, take a second to think about it…

A typical relationship that is lucky enough to have crossed the sacred line into marriage, after the sweet courtship, expensive engagement and wedding (they probably took a loan), blissful honeymoon and three year old toddler. You would think a ‘happily ever after’ would follow but before those words can even form a complete sentence, we hear about the file for divorce! Why? I’ll tell you why…

It’s simply because we choose the fastest way out. As soon as there is too much pressure; as soon as we settle and get past the initial “butterflies-in-stomach” stage and the relationship is no longer on auto pilot, we simply decide to crash. We leave the wreck we caused, nurse our wounds and hop on the next available flight of rosiness (I won’t call it love) and the cycle continues.

After more than a few emotional crashes, we give up and blame it on everything but ourselves.

Now don’t get me wrong, I understand that at the initial dating stages, there must be an acceptable level of attraction. There must be passion, warmth, euphoria… you name it. You cannot force these feelings because they are either there or not. I agree. (Although there are some exceptions, for example, I didn’t quite feel anything for my first boyfriend. But with time, I grew into him).
