Right feeling, wrong guy: How to know if your dating the right guy

Many of us have been here, your so in love with a guys potential, you ignore the simple fact that it may not work. When a relationship doesn't work it frustrates us beyond belief. Sometimes we hang on for dear life hoping that we can fix them and in turn we will fix ourselves. Someone once told me you learn a lot of life lessons from the relationships you have and the ones you find yourselves in. You learn your trigger points, you learn what turns you on, what turns you off, what excites you, what makes you absolutely livid and absolutely crazy. If you find you are in a relationship that is less joy and adventure, more misery,abuse,over analysis or frustration.it's time to move on. Just because in your ideal world you guys were not the perfect fit, doesn't mean the right person isnt out there hoping you'll give them a chance. What is the right person? I've learnt that the right person is someone who respects not just your strengths but does not glorify themselves during your weak points. You learn a lot about people's character when you make a mistake. What does your loving caring partner do when you fall, do they advise and support you? Or do they use it as an opportunity to burst into a monologue about how great they are, and how they would have never made that same mistake. Trust your instinct. Are you around someone who specialises in making you feel small, or are you around someone who is happy to watch you excel and grow. How would they feel if the next day you became extremely successful at what you do? Highly desired? Popular? Ask yourself the right questions, and then if you are in the wrong situations be ready to move on. There's a question that is always a one size fits all question.....am i happy? What are the factors?

Reason and Respect

We have to find ways to validate who we are, respect ourselves and honour our own existence; If you are someone who falls under the sweet spell of flattery too easily, beware.. A poison tongue is on it's way. Words have power. And if you let other people's words control you, they will mold you into something you don't recognise. When I was younger I had two female friends who I'll never forget. They were attractive young women who got quite a bit of male attention. They had both been comfortable with me in a supportive role, being a shadow whilst they were allowed to shine and show the best of themselves, counsel them about everything in relation to men, basically be the friend that helps them dissect and overanalyse everything, yet when there was a shift and I wanted to focus on my own life, and fix some of the problems that had arisen, there became a problem.

So long as i wasn't getting attention everything was fine. If i went ignored or they sensed i was rejected in some way, there was a sort of relief that they shared. It was only years later that i realised both these two women had been jealous of me. Despite their own qualities and their own strengths. At the time one of my supposed friends drove a sports car, she'd climbed to an upstanding position in her job, and when we were out she got a lot of male attention. Yet i would consistently recieve these stinging biting remarks, and every so often a stranger would come along and actually compliment me. The looks i'd recieved from her, or the scathing comments, were enough to make me run a million miles. In true form as well people like this, they'll put you down, ridicule you, belittle you, until you dont trust them. The irony is, they actually want you to like them, and they want you to trust them. They actually want to be close to you. Who knows why? Maybe your a nice person and you have a kind heart, maybe your popular and outgoing, laugh easily, are fun, bubbly, and likable, are confident.There's something about you that makes them draw near. Focus on building your self up. Fix your focus.
