1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep
him away.
If he doesn’t want you, nothing can
make him stay.
2. Stop making excuses for a man and his
behavior.
3. If you have ANY doubt in your mind
about a
man’s character, leave him alone.
4. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to
save you from
heartache.
5. Stop trying to change yourself for a
relationship
that’s not meant to be.
6. Don’t force an attraction.
7. Slower is better.
8. Never live your life for a man
before you find
what makes you truly happy.
9. If a relationship ends because the
man was not
treating you as you deserve then heck
no you
can’t "be friends." A friend wouldn’t
mistreat a
friend.
10. Have faith in God regarding your
relationship,
but don’t let faith make you stupid.
God does
things decent and in order.
11. Don’t settle.
12. If you feel like he is stringing
you along, then
he probably is.
13. If he keeps changing his mind about
the
relationship–take that as a BIG sign
that he is
unstable. Do you really want to be with
a man like
that?
14. Don’t stay because you think "it
will get
better." You’ll be mad at yourself a
year later for
staying when things are not better.
15. Honorable men take care of their
business
and aren’t involved in a whole lot of
mess.
16. The only person you can control in a
relationship is you.
17. There’s only one ‘reason’ a man
dumps you;
he doesn’t want you.
18. Avoid men who’ve got a bunch of
children by a
bunch of different women. He didn’t
marry them
when he got them pregnant, why would he
treat
you any differently?
19. You really do have to kiss a few
frogs before
finding the prince.
20. Always put yourself and your
happiness first.
21. Always have your own set of friends
separate
from his.
22. Maintain boundaries in how a guy
treats you. If
something bothers you, speak up.
23. If he doesn’t call, he just isn’t
that interested.
24. Be honest and upfront.
25. Know when to cut the cord, don’t be
strung
along.
26. Don’t fall for the "I’m confused
role". Remove
yourself from the situation to let him
figure things
out (but don’t wait for him, move on).
27. If you want to have a clue as to
how he will
treat you, watch how he treats the
WOMEN in his
family (not just mom).
28. There’s more than physical abuse,
there’s
emotional and mental abuse. If he
causes any of
them…flee.
29. You cannot change a man’s behaviors.
Change comes from within.
30. Don’t let him place rules on you
that he is not
willing to follow himself — double-
standard.
31. Don’t EVER make him feel he is more
important than you are…even if he has
more
education or in a better job.
32. Do not make him into a quasi-god.
He is a
man, nothing more nothing less.
33. Demand respect and if he can’t give
it, he
can’t have you!
34. Don’t compete with other woman, but
be
aware that men are attracted to what
they see.
35. If you think he is cheating, he
probably is.
Confront him right away and if you feel
he’s lying,
let him go.
36. Actions speak louder than words.
37. Never let a man define who you are.
38. Never rely on a man for
compliments, look to
yourself for that.
39. Never borrow someone else’s man.
40. If he cheated with you, he’ll cheat
on you.
41. Just because he says he loves you,
doesn’t
mean that he won’t hurt you and it
doesn’t mean
that you are meant to be with him.
42. To use painful hard-won wisdom –
‘get it right’
the next time.
43. Know that you deserve to be the
number one
person in the life of the #1person in
your life.
44. Love is a verb …
45. Learn to give up your lifelong task
of trying to
make someone unavailable-available,
someone
ungiving-giving, and someone unloving-
loving.
46. A man will only treat you the way
you ALLOW
him to treat you.
47. All men are NOT dogs.
48. You should not be the one doing all
the
bending…compromise is a two way
street.
