Here's my advice for you guys, i tend to help people whenever possible even when i try not to. This will probably be my last and only thread. Anyway, I hear a lot of people complaining about their bf or gf (mostly girls complain), so here's my advice; you people need to be better at selection. That's right, selecting a better partner will give you 99% chance on a better relationship. Example: people say their bf or gf treats them like trash, and then say their bf or gf has a history of treating people like trash, so if you knew that, why did you get involve? Anyway, this goes back to what i was saying; SELECTION. So how do you do this? Well, it's quite simple, I've made a list of what to look for in a person, although it's not a complete list, i may have forgotten a couple things here and there. But, SELECTION is a great place to start for you new people, and perhaps even for some experienced people who are lost. This is from my own personal experiences, here goes:
-how does that person treat their family? He or She will probably treat you the same way.
-how does that person treat their pets? (dog, cat, fish, birds, etc) They will treat you the same way.
-ask them about their parents, if they say something like "I hate my parents, i wish they die". Then run away from that person.
-does he or she come from a good family? they will have those traits when they start their own family.
-does he or she have reachable goals in life? positive goals are a good thing.
-does that person cuss or swear a lot? continuous cussing is not a good sign.
-if they say that they are trouble, then run away.
-if they admit to doing something that you don't see fit, run away.
-what kind of t.v shows and movies do they watch? My ex watches a show where the main plot is people having affairs at their work place, no wonder that person is my ex.
-how does that person act on the internet? look at their facebook posts and pictures, if it's trouble, run away.
-does that person flirt a lot with other people? if yes, run away.
-ask them about their virginity. If the answer is strange to you, run away.
-are they passionate about something? if yes, this is a good sign.
-if they are passionate about drinking alcohol and getting drunk at parties, run away.
-is that person sympathetic about other people? if yes, it's a good sign.
-is that person a good listener and listens to you? if yes, it's a good sign.
-does that person say "sorry" or "thank you" a lot? if yes, this is a good sign.
-does that person help pay or offer to pay half when you guys eat out? if yes, it's a good sign.
-if that person avoids you when you need them the most, then it's not a good sign. (ex: you need a car ride).
-does he/she return your phone calls right away when you know they can? if no, run away.
-does he/she answer your phone calls when you know for a fact they are able to talk? if no, run away.
-does that person offer to help you in any way when you need help?(example: math homework) if yes, it's a good sign.
-does that person keep secrets from you?(example: gone for whole day, didn't tell you where) if yes, run away.
Here it is boys and girls, ofcourse there are many more things to add, but you can clearly see a pattern here. This is my SELECTION that i'm talking about. Being better at selecting your partner will greatly increase your chances of a better relationship. And even if it didn't work out, just make your selection better next time and learn from those mistakes. But my greatest advice is to ask yourself if you truly love that person and can see yourself spending the rest of you life with them. If you are stuck, just follow your heart. Good luck out there.
