Its okay to cry a river, but build a bridge and get over it.

So you have hit the point in your relationship when you don't feel that spark and instead this person that once brought you so much joy is just pissing you off every chance they get....What do you do? I say let it go even if its only for a while. Sometimes in relationships one person might take for granted what they have in there partner. About 3 years ago in my relationship i felt like we had hit a dead end. I would go to work and work hard come home and cook and clean and it just didn't seem like i was being appreciated so instead of nagging him to death I just STOPPED! I didn't lift another finger I didn't cook I didn't clean. The first few days my man was fine with it then he started to notice he was running out of clean clothes and eating out every night was not good on the stomach or easy on the pockets. So he finally told me that he was sorry and that he realized what I did around there. So the strike ended... I had hours of cleaning ahead of me but hey i proved my point. My point was that in relationships there needs to be a level of respect for one another if he would have went on strike i would have been just as ready to apologize just as fast as he did. Then there are those times when you have done everything you have shown this person that you love and respect them your walking on eggshells when things are good to keep them that way and you still cant seem to please this person, This may be time when you have to just let it go! If you are giving this person all of your attention then you are taking away the attention you should be giving yourself. Love is a bitch sometimes it will make you do the most way out crazy things and I believe in being in love but loving yourself comes first at all times. Let love go and if it is at all worth it, it will come back.

  1. I've have always tried to be the opposite of my parents. My mom was young when she had me, married for a year and half and now a quater of century later has yet to marry again. She keeps all men at bay. She's a pimp to say the least. She had many proposals,dates and confessions of love. But she has never given in.

    My father on the other hand married shortly after the divorce. As been with the same woman for past 20 some odd years but they argue to the point you think they are about to kill each other.

    I didn't/don't want to repeat these behaviors. So therefore, what do you get: a woman who will hold her ground and try to hold her feelings but at the same time try not to argue.

    What do you got: A woman who is in love and at times feel unappreciative.

    This real woman's point of view was right on for me just what I needed.
