Diving into past relationships is like going on a treasure hunt, isn't it? You've got it spot on. Being in a one-sided relationship feels like you're the only one paddling in a two-person kayak. The biggest lesson I've learned ties back to the good old saying, "Love should not just be received, but also given." It's crucial to find that balance where both partners are equally invested, like two stars orbiting around each strong bond, illuminating each other's lives. Remember, it's all about finding someone who matches your effort, your laughter, and your love. That's when the magic happens! 😊 Keep shining and sharing that love!
I learned you have to build positivity and not dependency. And a relationship is a responsibility and not an asset. And you should not stop being their friend while also being their lover, and the two roles have separate functions. Also that emotional closeness is earned and not a default condition we bind each other to the minute we begin to date and that you never stop chasing and trying to win the person you already won. Also that you have to work on yourself and not just the relationship and you have to work hard enough.
hey, growing to a point where i look at myself and my traits, behaviours, patterns, habits, boundaries and see thats where to look, knowing yourself first... in coming to end a ltr of five years.. i ended up taking the, stop talking, start listening, and watch they will show you all you need to know about how they feel about you and the relationship.. when i was at a point so bad where everytime pretty much i would say something, i recieve no response and 90 percent face in the phone... during this time asses oneself... what part do i play in this? allowing boundaries to grow.. expand.. everytime a little step over the line.. it grew... know yourself and what free kicks do you get out of this despite their behaviour... the circle of trust... when you start off its so big, then a thing, which you dont like but let go, to them that cirlce of trust just got bigger, because you carry on trusting them, then they hurt you again, you comply circle gets bigger, then before you know it, you're so unhappy with their behaviour BUT where has oneself been complicit...
Yh you know before we enter into a Romantic relationship with anyone they show subtle traits that you might not like and you will just shrug it of because you like them and you want to be in a relationship but those subtle traits they are showing will show clearly when you guys are full dating
I learnt to focus on myself and on what I want. I no longer put his desires on hold, because toxic relationships tend to convince us that we can no longer do the things we love. Instead, I learnt to stay true to who you are. I learnt to love myself in ways that no one else can love me.
I've learned a few lessons, but the biggest has to be that both partners have to participate if the relationship is going to survive. Relationships can survive a lot of crap, but the one thing they 100% definitely can't survive is when one partner can't be bothered to get off their ass.
That is so much deeper of an issue than being in a one-sided relationship
love this spot on! my recent ex of 5 years was shocked when i ended it, saying I thought this was life! even my 18yr d said yesterday i can't believe he said that, like well you have to put in effort tho.. yes you do, but sadly for me I've had 3 long term relationships with men and everytime, the initial effort and interaction wears off and frankly im not having it... im not afraid to be alone...
@ClaircognizantEmpath Good for you! It's important to recognize when it's time to leave. That's not always easy. I've stayed in several relationships for way too long simply because I didn't realize that the woman saw me as her servant.
Hello, I am Turkish and I am very curious one think. Is Business department prestigious in ABD. I am very curious. I asked this questions but answer me no one. I saw yours job and maybe you answer me. How does the US culture view the business department as a society? ıf you answer me I would be very happy
@gorkemm it's viewed as a coveted high earning job but it's well known to have extremely shitty corporate cultures and the work life balance is pretty bad.
I don't plan to stay in the field for too long but I don't have the financial need to which most people have
What is it like for society to study business administration and be a business administration student at university? How does society react to this? Being a business student is a very humiliating situation for us.
@gorkemm I studied accounting but business is one of the most common degrees in the US. Nobody cares if you study business because with only a business degree getting a job is extremely competitive
I think I need to explain my intentions a little more. To put it bluntly, is it cool to study business administration? How is studying law or medicine perceived in your country? Is studying business and medicine the same or do business and law departments have the same reputation (students)
@gorkemm studying business isn't cool no lol. Law is very difficult with a lot of work, same for medicine. They're both well respected professions but I don't know about any of these appearing as cool in the USA lol
What is the most respected department in America? In which department is a student considered to be at a high level both in terms of finding a job and in terms of social respect? Please forgive me if my question sounds stupid. I don't know the culture very well and my English is not very good.
Most people say they love the other person. In reality, our concept of love is conditionally based. I love you….. if you meet these “conditions” or “expectations”. This is true for both men and women. This results in a power imbalance, where people feel “trapped”. They think it’s love. They’re told it’s love. They don’t feel it’s love. And it’s sad to think so many live on in this personal dichotomy, never really understanding that love- in its most pure form, is ultimate freedom and care without any conditions or expectations. Achieving this level of love requires first loving one self and learning to let go- not of people or things necessarily, but of what we want. The sooner we realize we don’t really control anything or anyone, love flourishes and life feels worth living.
