If You Are Trying To Get Over Someone You Are In Love With, This Is For You https://pakiholic.com/if-you-are-trying-to-get-over-someone-you-are-in-love-with-this-is-for-you/ Tue, 12 Jun 2018 08:49:20 +0000 http://pakiholic.com/?p=7578 By M.R. 

Getting over someone is a hard, long and time-taking process especially if you are trying to forget someone you have been in a relationship with. While it’s completely understandable to feel that it might never happen, understand that there’s light at the end of the tunnel and you WILL get over that bad breakup that screwed you over.

There are no hard and fast rules as to what might help let go but with certain strategies and time, your pain will fade. Just believe in yourself and keep trying.

Remove them from your social media:

It’s important to delete/unfollow them so you don’t see their posts on your timeline randomly and are reminded of them. You don’t need to be know what’s going on in their lives because it’s only gonna remind you of all the good times you shared with them making the whole process very difficult.

Don’t stay in touch:

Some people decide to stay friends after a breakup, but trust me on this: IT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. You will never get your closure if you stay in touch. Get some space and break away completely right after the breakup.

Don’t rebound:

DO NOT, in any circumstances, get in a relationship with someone just because you miss your ex. It will only make the whole process of letting go and move on complicated. Give yourself some time to heal, you will feel like yourself in no time.

Delete all texts/pictures that remind you of them:

Even if you cut off all ties, it will still be hard to get over them if your life is filled with reminders of that person. The best practice is to get rid of all photos and texts you still have of them. The less you see of them everyday, the better it is for your healing process. Oh and yes, get rid of those love songs you are listening on repeat.

Live life and move on:

It will seem hard at first but if you push yourself hard enough, you can do this. Understand that a breakup doesn’t mean the end of the world. Go out with friends, meet new people and enjoy your life while you can.

There is no set time limit for healing because love is a messy emotion and each relationship has its own memories and feelings. Give yourself time and everything will be all right.

Eid Ul Fitr 2018 in Pakistan: DATES REVEALED https://pakiholic.com/eid-ul-fitr-2018-in-pakistan-dates-revealed/ Tue, 05 Jun 2018 02:52:05 +0000 http://pakiholic.com/?p=7472 By M.R.

Now that we are almost into the last ashra of the holy month of Ramadan, celebrations and preparations of Eid Ul Fitr have already begun. Muslims from around the world are prepping up to celebrate this festival after a month-long period of fasting.

Photo: GETTY

This year, Ramadan in Pakistan started on the same day as the rest of the world so naturally one would think that the upcoming Eid ul Fitr would also fall on the same day but that, however, is not the case.

As per the predictions by a local astronomer in UAE, it is highly likely that the Shawwaal moon is sighted in that part of the world on the evening of June 14 and the first day of Eid is on Friday, 15th June. Thus, Ramadan is expected to comprise of 29 days this time around in UAE.

However, according to an official from Pakistan Meteorological Department, as per scientific calculations, there are very slim chances of Eid to fall on Friday, June 14 in Pakistan. 

This means that Pakistanis will observe fast for 30 days this year and celebrate Choti Eid on Saturday, 16 June. 

However, this is only a prediction and nothing has been confirmed so far. In case the estimation proves to be incorrect, Pakistanis will be celebrating Eid Ul Fitr on June 15 with the rest of the world.

A meeting of the central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee is scheduled to take place on Thursday, June 14, which will confirm the Shawwaal moon sighting. Till then, nothing can be known for sure.

However, scientific study of the chemicals in marijuana, called cannabinoids, has led to two FDA-approved medications that contain cannabinoid chemicals in pill form. Continued research may lead to more medications.

Mahira and Fawad Khan Are Back With A Bang and They Look Gorgeous! https://pakiholic.com/mahira-and-fawad-khan-are-back-with-a-bang-and-they-look-gorgeous/ Mon, 04 Jun 2018 09:19:39 +0000 http://pakiholic.com/?p=7397 Pakistan’s favorite couple, Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan are back for a new project and Instagram accounts are going crazy after their perfect, fairytale-ish chemistry.

Just like how Hollywood had Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Bollywood has Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, Deepika Padukone and Ranvir Singh, Pakistan has Mahira and Fawad Khan. The superstars had their first sizzling on-screen chemistry in Humsafar as Khirad and Asher Hussain respectively.

This recent shoot for Brides 2018 collection was done by Sadaf Fawad( Fawad Khan’s wife) who’s the owner of Silk by Sadaf Fawad Khan.

As Fawad Khan happens to be the Brand Ambassador of SFK, Sadaf Fawad believes that Mahira was a great choice for this photoshoot.

“Fawad and Mahira both are successful and strong individuals who represent the brand’s values perfectly,” Sadaf spoke exclusively to Something Haute.

This is the cover shot, which is a part of the shoot done exclusively for Brides Today.

Needless to say, this is a never-seen-before look, in which the superstars appear raw and sexy.

“Mahira will be sporting a completely different look from anything she’s done in the past,” Sadaf agreed. “We are glad that she experimented with us and the result is phenomenal. Fawad’s look compliments hers. He will also be seen a little tanner and wilder.”

10 Songs To Let Your Better Half Know You Have Hots For Them https://pakiholic.com/10-songs-to-let-your-better-half-know-you-have-hots-for-them/ Mon, 04 Jun 2018 03:38:10 +0000 http://pakiholic.com/?p=7436 By M.R.

Got a little crush on someone but don’t know how to confess? Well, what’s an easier way to let Mr. or Mrs. Right know that you’re into them except for sending them a ~cutesy~ song that is bound to melt their heart?

I have combined a list of 10 songs (of different genres to suit everyone’s music taste) that you could consider using to confess your feelings.

1. Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You Baby // Cigarettes After Sex

Although the band has a suggestive name (which I don’t think should be a problem because we are talking about that special someone, right?), but this song is a perfect choice to let them know that you care about them and would always stand by their side no matter what.

2. Alesund // Sun Kil Moon

This song doesn’t explicitly say “Oh, I love you, please take me into your arms and let me stay there forever” but it, a very sweet song that one cannot help but smile while listening to it. They are bound to think of you every time they listen to this.

3. After You // Meg Myers

Buuut if you are looking for something that yells your feelings with every lyric, then Meg Myer’s After You is the right choice for you. The song literally says “I’m falling in deep, do you already know, my love is after you” so really, just send it to them and see how it goes.

4. The One // Kodaline 

This one’s my absolute favourite! The way the song goes like “you make my whole world feel so right when it’s wrong” makes me want to cuddle up and hug whoever is next to me. This will, without a shred of doubt, increase your chances of getting together with your better half.

5. Perfectly Perfect // Simple Plan

I wasn’t sure whether to include this or not because Simple Plan has lost its charm, but if you’re in love with someone who suffers from a low self esteem, send this song to them and let them know they’re perfect to you and you’re in love with their flaws!

6. With Me // Sum 41

And if we’re talking about 2000’s pop punk songs, Sum 41’s With Me is a must! Forward this to your crush and tell them that it reminds you of them. (In case they are not into pop punk, dump their ass for having such a shitty choice in music).

7. Cure // Barcelona 

Oh, but if you want to get ~hot~ with them (iykwim), make sure to send them this! It’ll get your message across in a very subtle manner so you wouldn’t have to say the words out loud.

8. I Hate Myself For Loving You // Joan Jett And The Blackhearts 

I know that the title says “I hate myself for loving you” but hear me out on why it is such a good pick: it diverts the attention from the fact that you’re in love with them. It goes like, “I want to walk but I run back to you, that’s why I hate myself for loving you,” – perfect to keep your confession subtle.

9. Nightdrive // Jimmy Eat World

Leave it to Jimmy Eat World to help you score the love of your life! It’ll say everything you were too shy to say on your behalf, believe me.

10. No Matter What // Papa Roach

You wouldn’t expect Papa Roach to create such ~cutesy~ music but this one’s an exception. Let them know that you have got their back, and your feelings for them are forever.

Sheba Karim’s “THAT THING WE CALL A HEART” Is SO Not The Cliché Summer YA Love Story That I Love It https://pakiholic.com/sheba-karims-that-thing-we-call-a-heart-is-so-not-the-cliche-summer-ya-love-story-that-i-love-it/ Fri, 01 Jun 2018 02:48:30 +0000 http://pakiholic.com/?p=7421 By M.R.

Despite having reached the legally-allowed-to-drink-in-many-countries age of 21, I am still a huge fan of young adult novels especially the ones featuring high school love stories.

I recently got my hands on this book called “That Thing We Call A Heart” by Sheba Karim. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from it.

I was looking forward to yet another romance novel where the girl is absolutely smitten by her prince charming, they fall in love and live happily ever after but boyy, was I in for a surprise. 

It is a sensational book about love, friendship, heartbreak, history, religion and above all, growing up in today’s world.

This piece of writing doesn’t just explore romantic love, but also portrays the power and importance of friendship through the dynamic the two friends, Farah and Shabnam, shared.

What I reeeeeally liked about this book is that Sheba, through her writing, proves that there’s no one or right way of being a Muslim. Farah, a feminist by nature and a huge lover/follower of punk music, wears a hijab and is proud of it. She is described in the novel like this.

Shabnam, the protagonist, on the other hand is unsure of whether she even considers herself as a Muslim. She defies conventional Islam despite her family (or at least her mother) being extremely religious and conservative.

My favorite part, however, is when Farah starts wearing a hijab and is approached a random guy asking, “why don’t Muslims ask the terrorists to stop?”.

Ashish asked, “I don’t understand why the Muslims don’t tell the terrorists to stop?”

For Farah, this was some kind of breaking point, the end of nice.
She clapped her hand over her mouth. “Oh. My. God. You are so right! Hold on—” She took out her phone and pretended to dial. “Hello, Terrorists? Hi! Can you please stop blowing stuff up, it’s becoming a real drag. You will stop? No more beheadings, no more suicide bombs? Awesome, thanks! What? Can I stop US hegemony? Sure, no problem, I’ll make sure it’s over by tomorrow. All right, later! Holy shit, Ashish, thanks to you I just saved the world.”

The book sends out a strong message to the non-Muslims that the Islamic community covers a diverse range of people; all of them have different beliefs and habits and thus one cannot generalize the whole ummah. 

The book also discusses the partition of 1947 from an unbiased angle and how it’s something that’s not being talked enough about despite being one of the biggest migrations in history.

The characters and their narration is what makes this book seem so realistic and relatable. It was refreshing to see such casual & open discussions about love, sex, body odor, religion, poetry etc.
