The Essence of Love
By: Former Reporter - Natasha Rai
Love is in the air. With Valentine day around, every lover is preparing to shower their loved ones gifts, dinners or just free cuddles. This is the day every lover waits for eagerly, every single wants to find love and even a stingy man is willing to spend for the sake of love. Love is a strange thing. It can be the most amazing feeling in the world or it can be the most hurtful experience of your life but no matter whatever the consequence, we all want to love and be loved by someone.
There are many types of love like love for friends and family but we are talking here strictly the romantic love, something our heart craves for. Somewhere out there your true love awaits right? surely prince charming is roaming in search of you and if you are patient, he is galloping along any day. But till then, we are taking matters in our hands and try to search love on Internet, bars and all sorts of places. Dating and finding love online has been a fad in this age of Internet.
Sure, we all know that no one is perfect but many of us can't help but get perfect love inspiration from movies and TV shows where romances are smooth and blemish free. Men build their steamy fantasies based on the love scenes played by their favorite actors and women believe in the magical power of perfect love even if real life romance doesn't look as glossy as in the movies.
So love seekers, get ready first to find the partner who suits you, someone you feel comfortable and compatible with and not just someone to make love to. Right from our birth signs astrology, love matches traits have been derived. Some signs get along like house on fire and some are mismatched. The compatible love signs are there but even if you are not perfectly matched, you can understand him better if you read his stars and its up to you to work on the compatibility deficiencies.

Sometimes, lust and infatuation feels like love but then the first two are immature, selfish. If a person says that he loves you but is unwilling to talk, contact or do anything at all, then it is infatuation which happens most of the time in Cyber. Lust is when your "love" goes from one person to another and is short and physical. Lasting relationship is built on love and not on infatuation or lust. Your feelings towards the person doesn't change with his physical appearance. A major life changing decision like marriage, living together should be natural if you love someone and not a result of compromise. Love grows with time and infatuation grows with full bloom and jealousy is a result of lust and not love.

Attraction sometimes can make enemies of the brain and the heart specially if you are attracted to the bad boys types and worse if he is a player. You may also fall head over heels for someone who doesn't reciprocate your feelings, then you better stop running after him as he just isn't into you. If you really love him, let go of him and wish his happiness elsewhere. Love is sacrifice and not selfish. Love is giving and not demanding.
Complexity, drama, tension, more twists and turns, many think is the spice for love but sadly this causes more pain than pleasure. Love is meant to be simple, transparent, trusting and sharing the likes and dislikes of each other. Love is unconditional and without any expectation. If your interest is in how your lover can enhance your experience of life, then it is not unconditional. Accept your partner for who he is and not who you want him to be. Appreciate what you have and and how lucky you are to have someone to love.

Everyday brings a new opportunity to love each other and Valentine day is the biggest day to endorse that. Be generous both verbally and physically on showing your love and affection. Little things you do for him like hugging, kissing, saying "I love you" and displaying your genuine affection starts the day. Play, be silly and laugh that offsets any stress. Wear your best lingerie, cook the best meal and make the day special for him. Don't be demanding and pushy. Be happy with daisies if you don't get roses and do receive all his romantic gestures even if it doesn't match your fantasies. Hear his happiness, sadness, tears or regrets. Respect and trust is the biggest gift we can give him on this day. So let's give love, get love and make love this Valentine's Day

I didn't think that this day would come but it has. Natasha has completely swept me off my feet with this brilliant article. I am sitting her AMAZED by this article. Natasha, you have really done a brilliant job this time. My only question to T-Fare - is this her last??
loves to you too Natasha! So sweet piece written by you. Very nice girl. Great work!
ALL: Please hold your "good comments" until Valentine's Day - Feb 14, 2009. That's the day when I will be exposing this so called "writer" for who she really is - right here on this site. After I present this shocking information, you can decide for yourself if Natasha is a good writer or non-writer.
Thank you for your patience,
NK

T-Fare Editor: While you might not agree with me due to your personal relationship with Miss. Rai, you CANNOT delete my comments because I am not making any PERSONAL attacks at her. I am simply presenting the truth and will let our readers decide the rest.
Natasha Rai seems to have taken her title of "Research Reporter" too seriously. When anyone asks a writer to write a research paper, he or she should use all means to research the topic and present it in THEIR OWN WORDS. It is completely unethical to directly copy lines from articles on the internet and try to pass those as your writing. If we use someone else's words, we should always QUOTE the article or site the author's name who has used those words. Not doing this is called plagiarism which means "the use or close imitation of the language and ideas of another author and representation of them as one's own original work:"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism
Natasha's article is not hers. It is complete plagiarism and fraud because she is using not just words but ENTIRE SENTENCES from other articles and trying to pass them as her own. Don't believe me? Then check out this article and tell me that you can't spot entire sentences being plagiarized by Natasha for her article:
http://vancouver.24hrs.ca/Lifestyle/2009/01/30/8197956-sun.html
This is just ONE article. You can find many other articles from where she has stolen other people's words. Just do a search on her sentences with the popular search engines.
So how is Natasha going to defend this? Well she might come up with a lame one like Oh I am a "Research" reporter. But let me remind her that research and copying are 2 completely different things. Is there ANYONE that can say that what she has done is not blatant COPYING/STEALING?
If Natasha is allowed to continue writing even after this incident, I would highly recommend that she adhere to some code of ethics. Here are some guidelines:

WOWWW Natasha is nothing but a fraud writer trying to feed us other people's report as her own. You should be ashamed of yourself Natasha!!
This article is insult for T-Fare site and all readers. BRING IT DOWN and get rid of this fraud woman Natasha once and for all!
You are absolutely right on this NK. If you have read all my previous articles, you would find me using my words and giving links of the magazine,videos or references to support what I was writing. I was later allowed by Tfare max 5 links in my article as embedding the links would take longer time.
I did not do much of my research on this Love article as I was no longer a Tfare reserch reporter. I basically compiled whatever I was reading on LOVE in magazines and book. I thought it would be fun and interesting for everyone to read for Valentine day. I used Love signs and love songs as my links. I should have given a bibliotheque at the end of my article but didnot think was necessary for a short article like this.
Anyways its my mistake and my sincere apologies on this. Thanks
While this is a HUGE error on Natasha's part, I am encouraged to see that she seems sorry for her mistake and is willing to make ammends. I would have been very upset if she was not willing to accept responsibility for this but we should not bash someone who is apologetic.
Natasha, could you please revise the article and add a bibliography for all the words and sentences that were used from different sources? Thank you.
Don't be so hard on Natasha. She was just fired, and her best friend Richa Koppikar is in prison.
BTW, Natasha, I am really looking forward to seeing your role in "Fashion". I heard a rumor that you will be doing a nude scene in the film. Is this true?
Adding works cited now...too little too late. the damage has already been done. first this woman's best friend Richa got put behind bars, then she got fired from T-Fare, then accepting cheap sex films and now she turned into fraud writer. What a shame.
Have you compared all the information in this article that tracks early days of Kaushal until his jail sentence…with all other articles in news media? This is hands down the best article available with full details on the internet. I almost didn't want to return to Tfare after the palagarized "Essence of Love" article you had posted. But after reading this story, I applaud your writer. She really deserves a promotion.
