I have been doing a lot and going through a lot, mostly stuff to do with work, school and relationships.
Most importantly, I thank God for the gift of life, a sound mind and people.
For today, I will discuss the few lessions that I have learnt from relationships. Most of the things that I have learnt have just been confirmations of quotes made by older people. Here are the lessons:
1. You should never lower your standards to accomodate anyone. As a matter of fact, you should focus on maintaining them or raising them even higher.
2. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
3. Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
