IF A MAN WANTS YOU
*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.
*Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
*Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be.
*Slower is better.
*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." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
*Don't settle. 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.
*The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
*Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women.
*He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, Why would he treat you any differently?
*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 behavior. Change comes from within.
*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.
*Never let a man define who you are.
*Never borrow someone else's man.
*Oh Lord! If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
*A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
*All men are NOT dogs.
*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...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.
*Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
*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.
*Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.
*Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
THAT'S LOVE
If you love someone because you think he or she is really gorgeous....then it's not love..it's "Infatuation"
If you love someone because you think that you shouldn't leave him/her because others think you shouldn't....then it's not love..it's "Compromise"
If you love someone because you have been kissed by him/her....then it's not love..it's "Inferiority Complex"
If you love someone because you share everything with him/her....then it's not love..it's "Friendship"
But....If you feel the pain of the other person more than him/her even when he/she is stable and you cry for him/her....that's "LOVE"
If you get attracted to other people but stay with him/her without any regrets....that's "LOVE"
If you let him/her go knowing that he/she has to go but he/she doesn't want to....that's "LOVE"
I Believe
Have a seat....relax...and read this slowly.
It kind a sums it all up..........
I believe - That we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.
I believe - That no matter how good a friend is, they're
going to hurt you every once in a while and
you must forgive them for that.
I believe - That true friendship continues to grow, even
over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
I believe - That you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.
I believe - That it's taking me a long time to become
the person I want to be.
I believe - That you should always leave loved ones
with loving words. It may be the last time
you see them.
I believe - That you can keep going long after you think you can't.
I believe - That we are responsible for what we do, no
matter how we feel.
I believe - That either you control your attitude or it
controls you.
I believe - That regardless of how hot and steamy a
relationship is at first, the passion fades and
there had better be something else to take its place.
I believe - That heroes are the people who do what has
to be done when it needs to be done, regardless
of the consequences.
I believe - That money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I believe - That my best friend and I can do anything or
nothing and have the best time.
I believe - That sometimes the people you expect to kick
you when you're down, will be the ones to help
you get back up.
I believe - That sometimes when I'm angry I have the
right to be angry, but that doesn't give me
the right to be cruel.
I believe - That just because someone doesn't love you
the way you want them to doesn't mean they
don't love you with all they have.
I believe - That maturity has more to do with what types
of experiences you've had and what you've learned
from them and less to do with how many birthdays
you've celebrated.
I believe - That it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I believe - That no matter how bad your heart is broken the
world doesn't stop for your grief.
I believe - That our background and circumstances may have
influenced who we are, but we are responsible for
who we become.
I believe - That just because two people argue, it doesn't mean
they don't love each other. And just because they don't
argue, it doesn't mean they do.
I believe - That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret.
It could change your life forever.
I believe - That two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.
I believe - That your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people who don't even know you.
I believe - That even when you think you have no more to
give, when a friend cries out to you - you will find
the strength to help.
I believe - That credentials on the wall do not make you a
decent human being.
I believe - That the people you care about most in life are
taken from you too soon.
A strong lady knows how to keep her life in line.
With tears in her eyes, she still manages to say, "Nah, I'm fine."
