Dating, Love and Relationship Do's and Don'ts
Start out by working on your relationship with yourself first. It is sometimes so hard for us to accept ourselves as our defenses weaken against outside negativity or critisism....even if the critisism is supposed to be constructive in nature. Sometimes we are so busy trying to find love that we don't realize the obvious truth that love has to find us. To try to make love happen, is to see it end up feeling forced or fake. This is usually because of our own preconcieved notions of when things should happen. But two people have to become comfortable with their own timing of which responsibilities to take on even in the dating game.
- Try not to assume that the other person is ready to take on more responsibilities (no matter what they tell you at first about that subject) just because YOU are ready to take on more.
- Timing is everything so wait until the right time arrives to express your feelings. Call me for a reading on your special timing and circumstances.
- Accept yourself for who you are completely because if you don't accept yourself then nobody else will either.
- If you think of dating as work, then who says work isn't fun? Want to make it fun? Call me and I'll tell you how!!
- You are complex and so is she/he, so why shouldn't she/he take the time to know you? Aren't you worth getting to know?
- DON'T tell your whole life's story on the first date or all in one night! Why, you ask? Call me and I'll explain that one to you!!
- When talking about your past, NEVER sing the old "she/he done me wrong" song! Why, you ask? Call me for a reading and I'll explain that one to you!!
- I know you know how to give. Do you know how to take within a relationship to make it work with a healthy balance? Call me and I'll show you how.
- Setting reasonable boundaries is a form of communication which preserves your own dignity and respects the other person whom you are setting boundaries upon as well because they will then know what to expect. Call me to learn how to set boundaries and communicate your wishes.
