    I had a deal breaker, it was broken. I read somewhere that you should know when it's time for someone to remain in your heart, but not in your life

    I agree 100%. I've had that experience of giving so much, and I received so little in return. I've also experienced that with jobs and friendships-for me, making a change has always been the right decision!!!

    In Iyanla's 'In the Meantime' Book, she says... "If you are holding on to the wrong thing, your not allowing the right thing to come in"... (something like that anyway) I agree that this can be applied to different situations :o)

    Yup deal breaks in a relationship for me...want to kill me, says he hates me, want an open relationship with other women and ahh shows and says he does not love me. Time for me to say goodbye in a calm mode. No screaming or yelling-not wasting any more energy with that person

      Tamara Tvair haha :) I missed this reply for some reason.. we didn't ever live together (thank god) but he wanted me to move in and have his babies and play house ect.. (where I would be financially dependant on him.. yikes) I actually did love the guy, and would have done it.. but he has anger issues, and I was his emotional punching bag :o he would come over after work (high stress job) to my place and be already angry, pick a fight with me (over nothing!) Blame me for xyz.. till the point where I would be either get angry as hell and kick him out or nearly crying and upset all night :/ I broke up with him a few times but he would come back apologising blah blah blah.. (gave him a few chances, nothing changed!) I eventually just told him, if you come around uninvited the police will be called :) been a lot happier since! Lol.. I was really suprised actually when said move in ect.. I thought if we cant even get along for the 10 hrs we see each other now, how can we live together full time?! Crazy talk! It would have been a freakin disaster!!! :o

  • @missjackie7983
    @missjackie7983 Год назад

    I'm glad Ive come to the realization on two things. Don't nobody owe you nothing especially consistency and loyalty unless they are married to you. If you're single you can do whatever you want, with whomever you want to for as long as you want to as long as it's legal. Just because you spend time with someone no matter how many years have gone by and you've allowed yourself to develop feelings and trust, it don't matter. They don't belong to you.
    The other thing is that people have limits to their emotional capabilities. And once they reach that limit everybody else is temporary and secondary and will be used. For example if a man has a mama, sisters, kids an ex they were with for a long time? And he's talking to you, involved with you? You playing yourself and he's playing you because his emotional cup is full already with his mama, his family, his kids, his "boys". Don't like what I said? That's fine. Keep breaking your own heart. I've chosen not to!

    Hi im a home maker, My husband works .i want to know if im being selfish. My husband friend and 18 year old friend is living with us, i do everything in and out side the home my problem is no body helps ,when i talk about it my husband gets up set and tells me to leave it dont do anything he will find a woman to do it...simple thing like when i ask them to wash a dish after use and not leave in the sink for me to wash ,he would get up set and talk about what he does for me and son am i being selfish ???...

    • @shanec9840
      @shanec9840 8 лет назад +5

      +Latoya Morris Hi, I don't know you and I'm not Iyanla--by no means--but, I can try to offer you some clarity. It sounds to me that you're seeking validation for your own feelings. You are with a man that doesn't respect you and has brought someone else into your home (sounds to me, without your permission) that he also allows to dishonor you. In essence, you're the stranger in your own home. And instead of feeling like the wife, you feel like the help. Someone once told me that people treat you how they see you. So if he is treating you like you're nothing then chances are he sees you that way. The bigger question is why do you allow it? Oprah once said: "love does not hurt." It sounds to me that you're hurting. Happiness is a choice. And in this new year you have to decide are you going to give yourself permission to be happy. You have to stop seeking permission to feel, and start trusting your feelings. In case you need to hear it: You are NOT being selfish; You, alone, are ENOUGH! And YOU ARE NOT CRAZY. Take back your home or find a new one. A spouse should never move someone else (not family or friend) into the marital home when things are shaky. And your husband telling you that he'll find another woman to do it is basically saying that he sees you as *expendable. If he tells you that, I bet that he's told his friend the same thing about you, and that probably explains why the 18yr old doesn't respect the house rules. You have lost control. Relationships need respect. That's something yours does not have. Stop seeking the answers you already know. A wife should NEVER have to compete with an 18yr old friend, especially not in her own home. The worst thing about being in a bad relationship for 1yr is being in a bad relationship for 1yr and 1 day. You're husband has made his choice, now you make yours....Good luck. God bless. #happynewyears

    How do you get out when you have no financial security net and no place to go? And please don't answer with "Women's Shelter". Otherwise, I'll remain comfortable in my misery.

    • @lolita748
      @lolita748 4 года назад +1

      I feel you. It has taken almost 7 years!! for me to leave, but not telling you to do the same. It's different for everyone. However, I'm almost close to that day. I didn't want to go into a shelter either and didn't want to go to no one's house because you know how it gets for most times. When started to work I started saving a little at a time and also paying him my rent, not as much as I would pay in other places, but yes. Something that's helping me is being on unemployment now due to COVID, saving that money and run with it to a little room for now. It's been a long story, but it is doable and you will too. Focus. Like I said, it's different for each individual. Hang in there. Also loads of prayers works. Have faith. Your time will come.

      Pamelina58 - Those are the worst ones! Been there and done that twice. What I know about guys like this now that I look back on it. Is they showed me signs that it could be "an issue" down the line if I take them on. Example: Hard time finding a job, getting fired all the time, no goals, using manipulation for not doing this or that. Excuses all the darn time. You can tell when a person has their stuff together. Their NOT so focused on what YOU have or what you can do for them. You live and learn. I know i have. Those "no plan/have nothing to offer type of guys" Don't care how handsome you are... need NOT apply anymore! I'm so over them.

    That's strange - what if your partner doesn't want you to leave - but wants to work on it? Sometimes one needs to ask - why are you mostly sad than happy - perhaps that's a reflection of you as a person and not the partner.
