How do you know when your friend zoned?
You know she likes you when she giggles and looks at you all the time and is flirty with you. And when we make jokes a lot and just be (for lack of another word) giddy.

Why is it important to go the extra mile for your client?
I can't help but cringe when I hear about "going the extra mile" nowadays. So many companies use it as a buzzword but so few actually get what it really means.First, here's what going the extra mile IS NOT:It is not pulling a big stunt once to give customers free stuffs or an awesome experience.Going the extra mile IS a daily thing. It has to be something that's part of your company culture.For me, it means that you just care more than the average company. It had to be genuine. You care about customers and about giving them the best experience ever. That's why small companies are so good at going the extra mile. Because they tend to get a lot more personal with customers and they end up really caring about them. An online jeweler once shared an amazing story with me. In the story it's the customer who went the extra mile to thank them for their amazing service.It's a bit long to explain but here's the full story: Do Your Customers Ever Go The Extra Mile To Thank You? You know you've been doing something right when customers go to this extend to thank you. And that's what it is really all about to me. People helping other people!
How do I know whether my boyfriend is actually busy or is just using me?
I think i can give you a neutral point of view on this issue because i have seen both sides of that coin.Your situation:Your life is the same as it was before, the only change is that the boyfriend has moved a few 100 miles away.You texted him 2 hours ago he dint reply and now you see a checkin on Facebook or a instagram post from a common friend that he is out drinkingYou are the one who is always reaching out to him and he never seems to lift a fingerIt seems like he is suddenly trying new things that you could never get him to doHis situation:His life is completely upside down, nothing is what it used to be, he has to pay double attention for doing even the most mundane things that one does. Things like these are piling on and he has very little processing power left at the end of the day to think about things outside of him (like texting you back or calling his mom or registering for the tennis course that he wanted to)He did check your text and even thought of a witty reply and made a mental note that he would reply after the lecture because the professor seems to be constantly looking at him, but it slips his mind cuz he realised that he hadn't eaten since morning so he decides to join the guys out for a sandwich which progresses to an evening out because they came to know that the last lecture was cancelled.He feels guilty that he is not able to return calls from his girlfriend or his family. He has to chose between talking to you or studying the course material that he thought was simple but is tough af or having to fend for himself or having clean underwear to wear every day.He has to make new friends which means he has to go an extra mile.You may have to give him space for sometime. See how he responds, which he will as soon has he gets a hang of his new life. Its very hard to understand someone especially if you haven't been through the same. Have patience, talk it through, try to decide a timetable as to when you both would give each time and live YOUR life the rest of the time.
What is the Bible's definition of a friend ?
Great question thanks for asking it because questions like this make us check our hearts and seek God's word. Proverbs 17: 17 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. Ecclesiastes 4:10 10 If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up! John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. Jesus was the ultimate example of someone who does not hold back the things of God. John 15:15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. A friend is someone who will love you enough to hold you accountable to the Lord. Someone who will warn you of evil and always build you up in God's word just like Jesus. Someone who will not be ashamed when you confess your sin. I desire to be a friend like this. That is my prayer. It is not good when we are alone we need each other we need the whole body of Christ. I believe that true friends come from the Lord and are always willing to go that extra mile for you. Thanks again for asking this question.
Committed friendship?
I would like for everyone if possible to comment here and leave their opinion. My girlfriend and I have been seeing each other for almost a year. Because of her situation ( coming out of a divorce) she feels like our relationship was unfair because I am able to have stronger feelings for her than she can for me. We both have strong feelings for each other but the (relationship) part of us is very hard for her because of her situation.(difficult for her to love) She often tells me without regard how much I mean to her and how much she cares for me so we decided to become (non sexual) friends. We both talked about everything and she agreed with me that we both deserve to finish where we left off after she gets done dealing with everything that's going on in her life since the divorce. I made a proposal to her last night that because of our current situation we could try a committed friendship where we throw the relationship and love aspect out the window and keep it on a (non sexual) level without dating other people so we can grow over time as she deals with everything in her life. I made such a big sacrifice to get to that point because I care about her more than anything and it seems to have grabbed her attention. She seems to show enough interest in the proposal to think about it which is a big step forward for the both of us. What do you all of you think of my proposal? I would like for everyone to comment with your opinions. We've both made so many sacrifices thus far to get where we are today and I don't know of any other guy who would sacrifice as much as me for a girl he cares the world for. Sure I could easily move on without her to someone else but she is very special to me. Let me know what you think? Anybody and everybody
