8 FACTS ABOUT DREAMS
Dreams have been a fascinating subject for thousands of years. Everyone experiences dreams, as well as the unpleasant counterpart of the occasional nightmare. People have been studying dreams for years; the scientific study of dreams is called Oneirology, while dream interpretation or dream analysis is the study of the meaning of dreams. There is quite a bit of interest in dreams from both parties, and here are eight interesting facts about dreams from both studies.
1. You Are Paralyzed
Sleep paralysis, the inability to talk or move, or even react at all, comes in two forms. Many people experience it at some point in time when they are waking or falling asleep; this can be an isolated incident for some people, but it can also be a chronic, stressful problem for many individuals. Many people who suffer this form of sleep paralysis report that they experience terrifying hallucinations while they are unable to react. The other type of sleep paralysis is not a true paralysis, but simply that while you are asleep, your body is unable to react fully, or at all, to external stimuli. This is almost like being paralyzed, as it is a vulnerable state that you cannot voluntarily move or speak in.

2. External Stimuli Invade Your Dreams
Even though you cannot voluntarily react to external stimuli while fully asleep, it is possible for these things to influence your dreams. Things such as sounds, smells, changes in light or temperature, and physical movement or touch can alter your dreams. These may change the course of your
dreams, or they may shift the way you feel or think during their

10 THINGS NEVER TO SAY TO A BROKEN-HEARTED TEEN
We've all been teenagers in love—and now many of us are raising teenagers who are bound to get their hearts broken as a result of breakups and loss. Here are some of the worst things you can say to a teenager who is suffering from a broken heart.
1."Don't be sad."
Don't try to downplay the natural reaction—and need—to express emotional pain. "When they see their child experiencing disappointment, parents often want to fix it and eliminate the negative feelings,."This parent response denies the child the chance to process their feelings in a healthy way." It encourages teens to repress what they feel and teaches them they are better off not paying attention to their emotions.
2. "There are other fish in the sea."
Not only will this oft-repeated cliché inspire a teen to roll their eyes, it will make them feel you are devaluing the issue. "As adults who have had much more experience than teenagers, parents know these things are true,"However, these kinds of statements will only upset teens and lead them to believe their parents don't understand the depth of their hurt."
3. "You'll find someone better when you get older."
A teenager with a hurting heart is not too interested in the future, and will be less inclined to seek help or comfort from their parents when they hear this statement."This

10 THINGS NOT TO DO AFTER A FIGHT
It's completely normal—and healthy—for couples to argue. You're two separate people, and you're going to have different opinions sometimes. But what you might not realize is that how you act post-spat can be as important to your relationship as what you say in the heat of the moment. Here are 10 reactions to avoid, whether you're totally over it or still working on that whole forgive-and-forget thing
1. Don't give him the cold shoulder. If you need some space after a fight, that's OK—as long as you tell him. If you brush him off or ignore him, he may think you're punishing him, which may make him hold back on telling you how he feels in the future. Instead, say, "My emotions don't recede as quickly as yours, but give me 24 hours and I'm sure things will be fine. If not, we can discuss more."
2. Don't keep his words in your arsenal. You know "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas"? Whatever your partner says during a fight should stay there. So if he says something during the fight that bugs you, tell him his words are frustrating you. If his fighting words annoy you the next day, give yourself some breathing room instead of approaching him again so soon. Bringing up an argument too often can lead to talking in circles, not a resolution.
3. Don't just say, "I'm sorry" if he's still hurt. That says, "I'm sick of this. Leave me alone. I want to do something else,"What you want to say is, 'I'm sorry for

26 SIGNS TO KNOW HE'S CHEATING ON YOU
1. He tells you he isn't really ready for a relationship early on. Yet he continues to talk to you and lead you on in a way that seems serious. You just go with it because he is cute, seems genuine, gives you attention, and you might just think he'll change and realize you're "the one."

8. He gives you just enough attention to keep you around
LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP :- SHOULD WE STAY TOGETHER??
Many students decide to continue being a couple even when they go off in different directions. Is your relationship strong enough to survive the separation? Are there strategies for making the relationship work? Is a long-distance relationship even wise? These questions don’t have easy answers, but you can start addressing them by considering the following:
Long-Distance Relationships Aren’t Easy
College is one of the most life-changing experiences you will have. During your college journey, you’ll be forced to figure out who you really are—both professionally and personally. Sometimes, it’s difficult to balance your time making those amazing self-discoveries and still having time for your nightly phone dates.
For many students, dating around is part of their social development—and we’re not just talking about sex. It’s hard to be part of the college scene when you’re busy counting down the days until you can pack your bags to visit your significant other (SO). You may also face a lot of peer pressure to date someone at your own college.
Starting college means adapting to a new home, new professors, new friends, new pressures and responsibilities. Getting used to the college environment and rising to meet academic challenges is going to take lots of energy. You will have to be creative to schedule study time along with working on your long-distance relationship.
Because you’re far away, there’s no chance you’ll be able to watch your SO’s every move. You have to learn to trust your partner to be in a successful
