Q.

Talking about relationships

Had an interesting conversation about relationships with a friend or two. We were talking about our own relationships.

I mentioned the other day on the " we never have enough"  post saying that i have a decent person in my life yet i still do not feel fulfilled.

2 of the others felt the same. The one in a long term relationship around 4-5 years, the other quite new like mine.

It got me thinking though. In general, we all have our first loves. It shaped to how we interact with our partners today. Got me thinking though could it be that the only true love we will ever feel, will be the last?

Some days are good days where i enjoy his company and am glad we are together, then some days i think to myself i should of never got into this relationship at all. I have everything i want in a man yet the person i fell for was the worst possible man ever - funny isnt it?

Then you didnt understand it. You cant give your star to somebody for safekeeping. They will break it. The star is your happiness. YOU are responsible for your happiness. When you can do that your relationship will prosper. When you have self love you will not be needy and clingy. You also cant be manipulated. The idea is to have an abundance of love in your own heart then only can you give love. If you dont love yourself you will be just like a hungry beggar and pick it up from the gutter and perpetuate your misery. Dont EXPECT your partner to make you happy. Make them happy.

PS if you don''t want to get the whole book google " The man who didn''t believe in love."  It''s an excerpt from the book and you can get it on the net.

For a deeper spiritual take on love check out Mastery Of Love by Miguel Ruiz. People expect their partner to MAKE them happy. That is a vertical asymtote. It cant happen. Relationships are about giving, not receiving!
