Lessons from Relationships Past

Note to self:

1.  Never take friendships for granted. Always make an effort to nurture and maintain friendships, even if it means sacrificing time with your partner.

2.  Have your own life, and don’t feel guilty about it. You don’t have to spend every spare minute with them. It’s actually just an excuse you’re using because you don’t want to do the work required to have your own thing happening.

3.  Ask for it. Ask for what you want. Tell them what you’re needs are – and a straight forward, positive and loving manner. Just lay it all on the table.

4.  Choose someone who is independent, driven and has an inner confidence. Someone who grounds you, rather than adding fuel to the fire.

5.  Don’t be lazy. Just because someone else can do something better than you, doesn’t give you permission to take the back seat all the time. Step up to the plate and grow together.
