Most don't comprehend this.
When you meet someone and they show you their true colors, don't try to repaint them.
When you try to save a toxic relationship or an abusive person, that is called a trauma response.
Your relationship doesn't need to make sense to anyone except you and your partner. It's a relationship, not a community project.
Always believe people when they show you who they really are.
Many times what we call "Giving people benefit of doubt" is our way of disrespecting our own boundaries with a delusional belief that they will change.
We make excuses for people we like when they don't treat us very well because we are too scared to accept the fact that they could care less about us.
The earlier you come to terms with it, the better off you'll be. Stop wasting your time on temporary conversations.
Always having effective communication in crucial.
Communication is more than talking for hours at night before you decide to fall asleep. Its the quality of the conversation that truly matters.
It's one thing to know how to talk, it's another to know the right questions to ask & the right conversations that will open your partner's mind.
Always pay attention to how you feel deep down in your heart when you're talking to someone.
If you feel like you're settling for less, then that's what is most likely happening. Your soul knows when everything isn't in place. Don't ever ignore this feeling.
A person's morals, standards and mindset will be the qualities that will be raising your children. Those are the things that will make them a good spouse and parent. Not their looks, so choose wisely.
Pursue a relationship with someone that knows the smallest details about you. Like the way you like your eggs in the mornings, your favorite childhood memory or what romantic movies make you cry.
Take my advice and remember ......
Know who you are, know what you want, know what you deserve and never ... under any circumstances settle for less.
