Just being madly in love is not enough for a relationship to last forever.

Pay attention to their actions, even moreso than their words.

Anyone and everyone can be replaced.

When you have signs or red flags that it just isn't meant to be, it might be in your best interest to walk away.

Sorry, I learned too many things to just narrow it down to 1. LOL

when you have slain the dragon
the village does not in fact turn out to cheer
the beautiful princess does not in fact fall in love with you

So f-ing true. I am embarrassed to say I fell for that not too long ago. He looked me in my eyes and told me that during the act and during 'afterglow'.

I fell for it hook, line and sinker even though I'm old enough to know better. I guess deep down I wanted it to be true. Funny that he loved me so much he didn't call me again for months.

Some love.

Great thread, I'm gonna pass out rep points tomorrow when I'm at the computer.

Sorry about what happened to you Glitter. Unfortunately, many men do the same thing. Sigh. For example I was totally convinced by ex boyfriend loved me and, suddenly I realized he loved me only sometimes. Men can be deceitful when the sex is good. Oh well. Forget him, he wasn't worth it.

Both people have to be on the same page as far as what constitutes a relationship and what each person is expected to do keep that relationship. Unfortunately, a lot of people just go through the motions and tell themselves they're being a good partner. Others are even worse. They'll barely make time for you, saying they need "lots of personal space." While I agree everyone needs me-time in a relationship, some use this as an excuse to be distant. The truth is they're not really in a relationship. They just have someone they hook up with a regular basis. Men and women are guilty of doing this.

Don't punish others for what someone has done in the past. You will miss out on someone special that way.
