In your opinion, what's the most important thing to know when it comes to a relationship?
Seeking Love
Dear Seeking,
One of the most important things: Never forget that you live in a world of options. If we all knew that we lived in a world where at all times we had 1,000 people waiting in line to love us, adore us and respect us, would we ever put up with anything less than what we deserved? Would we ever allow someone to hurt us, disrespect us, lie to us, ignore us, lead us on, abuse us, alienate us, hurt our friends, our family or treat us any other way than the way we know we deserve to be treated? The answer: NEVER! Living in a world of options gives us the power to see the truth, hear the truth, speak the truth, be true to ourselves, demand respect, command respect and know that who we are with is the best choice for us, not our only choice. The problem is that too many people do not live in this world. They live in a world of few options. As a result, they feel trapped in their relationships. And when people feel trapped, they blame themselves or blame their partners for all that goes wrong. The moment we start feeling trapped is the moment we start to build up resentment. And this is when the relationship starts to veer off track. And if it's off track long enough, a relationship will eat up years and end in a bad breakup. Living in a world of options means living in a hopeful, happier, honest and more loving world.
