Ever wonder why some women seem to have an easier time in relationships than others? Sometimes it?s plain as day why a woman?s love life repeatedly play out like a version of an over the top reality show. After all, there?s no way you can have a healthy relationship with an active addict, as their primary connection is to their ?drug? of choice (be it alcohol, sex, work, etc). Or, if you can only afford to shop at Mandee or Old Navy and believe that a man should buy you Gucci or Prada, it?s safe to say that your selection process in a potential mate will be somewhatskewed ? to put it lightly.

Almost everyone I know says they want to love and be loved. And almost everyone has struggled at some point in their lives to achieve this seemingly basic need.

It?s common knowledge that people treat you the way you let them. This may be a trite saying, but it?s a timeless truth.

You wouldn?t want him to think you?re with someone else, do you? Also, never turn down any of his invites to spend time together. You can get your taxes done another time. After all, that?s what extensions are for. Message sent: ?The most important thing to me is being available to you. My personal life is disposable and runs second to our relationship.?
