When we enter into a new relationship, there are always expectations inside. Sometimes they are based on past experiences, sometimes on dreams, sometimes on how we would like to see ourselves and the other person. But the reality is almost always different - and it is at this moment that many face internal tension. What to do if expectations do not match what actually happens?

Today I had a rare free evening, and I caught myself with a strange urge to just sit down and write. Without proofreading, without choosing the right words. It's like I'm writing a letter to someone I don't yet know but want to get to know.

I can already feel Christmas approaching - a slight anticipation, the smell of honey, the aroma of cinnamon and apples. At times like this, I especially want to share the holiday with my loved one and create my own family traditions ❤️. Did you know that in Ukraine, every Christmas Eve tradition has a special meaning? 🌟

Love is a word we speak daily, but it's impossible to fully understand even in a lifetime. It changes form, sound, and depth, but remains that quiet light that makes every day a little warmer

Every fall, the same question arises: put on all-season tires and forget about them, or do the old-fashioned winter/summer swap twice a year?

In 2025, women no longer chase after those who are unsure. The trend is mutual interest, honesty, and mature relationships without games.

Every year I make sure to hang garlands all over the house. And today is no exception😉 It was a very cloudy day, I didn't feel like going out and doing anything.. Does this happen to you? What makes you want to lie on the couch all day or just sit and watch a movie?🤔

I want to share with you what a wonderful choice I made for my weekend, it was a mini vacation for three days.🌸 I always have some things to do and a lot of work, but this time I had a few weekends and was thinking about how to spend them, and I decided to go to Lviv.

Today I was an invited guest at my friend's wedding, she is my age by the way. It's been a long time since I've been to a wedding, so long that it seemed like everyone was just getting married without celebration and that's it.

Every Sunday we have a mini tradition in our family. With my daughters we go out and try something we haven't done before. We can go somewhere, or go eat that food we've never tasted, go to an exhibition. Or whatever the heart desires.✨

Does it depress you when it's foggy and gray outside the window? I'm always convinced that the day becomes brighter not because of the weather, not because of coffee, and not even because of plans, but because of the people you think of first, barely opening your eyes.

Is this a compliment for a woman without unnecessary words? It’s such a small thing, but there’s something special about it… as if the world stops for a minute, allowing you to feel attention, care and tenderness without unnecessary words.

There is no official Thanksgiving Day in Ukraine.

Recently, I decided to indulge in a little culinary adventure. 😜

I've always believed that true love isn't measured by years, experience, or the number of days we've lived. It's measured by the emotions we give each other and the moments that remain in our hearts forever. And believe me, love has the power to surprise, inspire, and lift us up at any age.

There are pains you can tolerate. And then there's toothache. It appears suddenly, clinging to a nerve like a thread, and tugs and tugs until you feel empty, hot, and anxious inside. It throws you off track, making you vulnerable, scared, a little angry, and very dependent on someone else's help.

There’s a special quietness in the last days of autumn — a kind of softness that feels like the world is taking a slow, deep breath before winter exhales its cold. The bright gold and fiery red leaves that danced so loudly in October now lie curled on the ground, almost like they’re tired too. The trees stand half-naked, half-proud, showing their real shape without all the decoration.

Sunrises and sunsets always touch me in a special way. There's something more to them than just the change from day to night.
