I really like this.
Not quite suprising, some of her invaluable advice shared are spot-on and affirms that I am on the right track as well as I have given others fitting advice for the right path.
Fellow genteel women, my sisters-in-arms, gorgeous goddesses - Listen up, and listen good.
- Stop making excuses for a man and his behaviour. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
- Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.
- Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
- If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve, then heck no, you can't 'be friends'.
- If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
- Don't stay because you think "It will get better". You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
- Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
- Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
- NEVER let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
- You cannot change a man's behaviour. Change comes from within.
- Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are, even if he has more education or is in a better job.
- DO NOT make him into a quasi-god. He is a man; nothing more, nothing less.
- NEVER let a man define who you are.
- NEVER borrow someone else's man.
- If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
- You should not be the one doing all the bending. Compromise is a two-way street.
- You need time to heal between relationships. There is nothing cute about baggage.
Deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship. - You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you. A relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals.
- Make him miss you sometimes. When a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted.
The Holy Grail of advices? - NEVER move into his mother's house.
