Spoken Words Of Love

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 to save you from heartache. Do NOT change who you are for a relationship that's not meant to be. 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. Compromise but NEVER 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! 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. 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 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... Allow him time for him to miss you...when a man always knows 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. You are the best thing that could ever happen to anyone and if a man mistreats you, he'll miss out on a good thing. Share this with other women and men (just so they know)... You'll make someone smile, another rethink her choices, and another woman prepare.
