Can I Find the Relationship I Really Want?
All I want is love . . .
Have you ever felt this way? All you really want is to be loved.
Have you looked for love, only to find yourself hurt, betrayed and alone?
Have you found yourself in situations you don’t want to be in, doing things you don’t want to do because you are trying to keep someone’s love?
Love and closeness are developed in many ways and over a lot of time. What builds a solid, quality relationship is the time two people spend together talking, doing the same activities, getting to know each other’s likes, dislikes, hopes, fears and dreams.
Ask yourself these questions: Does the person you’re with . . .
- Tell the truth?
- Treat you with respect?
- Like you for who you are, not what you look like?
- Act responsibly?
- Do things for you even when they get nothing in return?
- Do they do this not just for a week, but over a long period of time?
If that special someone doesn’t honor your wishes now, they won’t treat you special later.
Set the stage for a life of respect. We can help. Ask us how.
