Do not expect and never blame anyone.
Accept yourself. Respect yourself. Love yourself.
Take good care of yourself. If you really wish, you can always find something
to do that makes you feel good about yourself. Love yourself, so hunt your true
needs, true desires. Ask yourself why you didn't? Too often relationships fail
because someone is unhappy and blames their partner for making them that way.
Your life is only under your control. Keep reminding yourself you are good
enough to have a happy life and a healthy relationship. Make yourself happy,
and this joy with one another.
Respect the difference and don't expect he or she to agree with you on everything. If you say
you're going to meet your partner for lunch at noon, be on time, or call if
you're going to be late. Always show respect for yourself and your partner, as this will create a sense of trust and safety.
