Bad Relationship Advice
“Leave him, he’s no good!” Does that statement sound familiar to any of you? Maybe you’ve been the one feeding these lines to a friend, or maybe you’ve been the recipient. Whatever role you played, those words are a perfect example of bad relationship advice, but unfortunately, seems like many of us fall for it.
Let’s be logical for a minute. If you had a brand new car that broke down with you, what would you do? Would you have it checked out in hopes to repair it or would you just get rid of it to get another one? Now if you value that car, I’m pretty sure you’d be looking to get it fixed in order to enjoy it again.
When we just meet someone, we go bragging to our friends, telling them how perfect he/she is. We speak on the many ways this person was able to impress us. We say anything to ensure that our peers are just as impressed in this person as we are because, in reality, we are looking for their approval although it really wouldn’t make a difference to begin with. At the end of the day, no matter what anyone says, it’s almost impossible to take away that good feeling we are receiving at the moment; so we proceed.
At this stage in the game, the opinion of mankind would mean just as much as the soles we walk on. It’s more of a “if you are not with me, you’re against me” attitude. We fight, that’s right, we fight for we believe in this premature connection as much as we believe in life itself. But why is it we crumble to the bad advices that encourage us to make such a drastic decision?
No big decision is an easy decision so it’s vital that we always take a look at the bigger picture. We must review our situation thoroughly before determining that giving up is the best way to go. Don’t depend on someone to make such a decision for you!
One thing we must remember is that no one knows our relationship more than we do? No one has benefited from the relationship as much as we have neither have they lived it the way we did. Most importantly, no one will live with the decisions you make but you. In essence, no one but you is fit enough to know whether or not such a decision should be made.
