Involved with the wrong person? |

Be prepared for the possibility that the relationship may never 'kindle'. If such be the case, consider it 'training' for your next one. Go on with your life. Meet new persons. Explore new relationships. Finally, recognize that even a close relationship may go sour. Danger signs in a failing relationship include lack of respect between partners, constant bickering, and, most
telling of all, power and domination dramas. If the two of you can no longer make each other laugh, give each other comfort by a touch, and share intimate moments, then there is little hope left. If your partner disparages and makes fun of you, there is not much remaining to hold on to. You can no longer evade hard choices, and the time has come to consider a graceful exit. Becoming involved with the wrong person is a certain prescription for unhappiness. This is the dreaded "one-way love" scenario. Nearly as nerve wracking to deal with is the woman who is not quite sure that she loves you, who plays up to you when you start to distance yourself, yet pulls away when you want closeness. Every variety of games playing, every deviation from honesty and integrity undermines a relationship at its very foundations and diminishes both people involved. |
