Perhaps not high up on your "top romantic countries" itinerary, nonetheless, Japan is very romantic. With a blend of traditional and Western culture, there is plenty for Tennesseans to see and do. Visit Kyoto to experience 1,000 years of culture, art and ancient traditions embodied in temples and shrines; and head to Tokyo to see a completely different, more Westernized and frenetic pace that, in its own way, is no less beautiful and has plenty of romantic destinations. Despite more recent touring activity from Tennessee travelers, the traveling crowd from Tennessee has been a lot smaller in Japan; however, its visibility is increasing. Be sure to relax together in one of the many natural hot springs, tour the mountains, and visit some of the exclusive shows. Learn more about Japan.



Infidelity: A cry for help?




Deep in the hearts and minds of all men and women in Memphis lurks a fearsome villain: Infidelity. Few things are nearly as hurtful as being cheated on by your beloved. And, few transgressions can make you feel as slimy as breaking a promise you made in good faith. In any committed relationship, adultery can be an automatic deal breaker, and a guaranteed heartbreaker.

Is this devil's work or a wake up call?
Here in Tennessee, whatever a couple agrees to regarding monogamy, they entrust their energy, time and hearts to one another and make a pact as to the boundaries around sex, intimacy and exclusivity. While it's only natural that temptations will arise between a couple in Memphis-or anywhere else in the world for that matter-the shower has a cold knob for a reason. Infidelity happens when the promise is broken and the temptation is acted upon.

Confessions of the cheating Tennesseeans
David is known to be slightly self-deprecating when it comes to relationships. Deep down, he doesn't really believe he deserves a great partner. When things start going too well, he gets jittery and blows the whole thing up. Mary Ellen in Shelby County, wants it all, from the ravishing excitement of a spontaneous fling, to the stability of her long-term but passionless marriage. Rob does not want to admit that his two-year relationship is winding down, and he is subconsciously seeking a way out with someone else. Each of these Memphisonians uses infidelity as a salve to soothe a wounded soul, expending their relationship in the process.

Till death do us part, period?
Individuals and relationships grow and change over time, sometimes in unexpected directions. Maybe the Memphis couple has simply allowed this union to stagnate, or maybe they did not maintain it with honest communication and/or couples therapy. What was once blissful rapture may have slowly near morphed into a sterile, lonely and empty feeling that may never improve. If the couple is not careful, the potential of infidelity creeps in as a result

Keep your pants on
Urges to stray signal that your relationship needs attention. Following those urges only complicates the already struggling relationship or simply causes it to fail. If your eye is wandering further and further afield, take a serious time-out to investigate what's really going on before you do something stupid. Honor your Teneesseean partner by talking honestly with him or her about what may be causing your restlessness, and what might be done to remedy it. Pursue couples and/or individual counseling as a way to bring clarity to the situation. Perhaps all you need to spruce it up is to make more frequent visits together to parks, venues, or local malls like Northgate

The victim's eye view
If you're a victim of cheating, it's safe to say you feel rotten. Your heart is bruised and your trust in your Tennesseean mate has been violated. But before you throw the baby out with the bathwater, try to determine why it happened. Some couples are able to forgive and forget, where working to repair the relationship to a healthy state is satisfying to both. Whatever you do, don't seek to avenge yourself by committing the same act. Two wrongs make nothing more than two wrongs, and will only make worse an already-bad scenario.

Take these things one day at a time. You'll be surprised what can be accomplished in an ailing relationship when you give it time.
