1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
2. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
3. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
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. Slower is better. Never live your life for a man before you find
what makes you truly happy.
7. Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then
he probably is.
8. Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad
at yourself later for staying when things are not better.
9. The only person you can control in a relationship is YOU.
10. 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?
11. Always have your own set of friends separate from his. Keep him
in your radar but get to know others.
12. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something
bothers you, speak up.
13. Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you
later.
14. You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from
within.
15. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...
even if he has more education or a better job. Do not make him into
a quasi-god.
16. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
17. Never let a man define who you are.
18. Never borrow someone else's man.
19. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
20. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat
you.
21. NOT all men are dogs.
22. You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is
a two way street.
23. You need time to heal between relationships. There is nothing
cute about baggage. Deal with your issues before pursuing a new
relationship
24. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you. A
relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals. Look for someone
complimentary, not supplementary.
25. Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr.
Right.
26. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything
that you need.
27. Make him miss you sometimes. When a man always knows where you
are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for
granted.
