I always date the same man... Posted: 10/28/2008 2:01:14 PM | I personally believe we are who we attract. Do you fall for someone who you realize is uncaring, selfish, abusive, dishonest or a lier? You might want to ask yourself what is it in you that you did not see those red flags or that you devalued yourself and accepted them anyway.
It is a good thing to evaluate who you are inside and what standards you set for yourself. If you love, value and respect yourself on the inside then you will have the same standards for the ones you choose for a partner.
If you do not notice these warning signs in the begining or allow yourself to disregard these things in a person , you may want to do a check inside to see which area of self respect you are lacking in and why.
On the other hand, are you so picky that you can't accept people's faults. Everyone has them whether it be lack of social skills, money management or someone trying to fix things all the time. These can be dealt with and compromised in a relationship if you take time to deal with the issues.
A total lack of character, honor and dignity towards me will not be compromised or accepted with what I look for in a person whether it be a friend or a relationship. I will be treated with the same standards I set for myself. However, I am willing to accept a person's fault because I do have those myself and willing to listen and change it if need be. | | | |
