If a man wants you?

If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. Allow your intuition or spirit to save you from heartache. Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then HELL NO, you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is. Don't stay because you think "it ! will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, Why would he treat you any differently?
Always have your own set of friends separate from his. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up. Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later. You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.
Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more, nothing less. Never let a man define who you are.
Never borrow someone else's man. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you. ALL MEN ARE NOT DOGS. You s! should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is a two-way street.
You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage...deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.
Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right. Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always knows where you are, and you're always readily available to him- he takes it for granted.
Never move into his mother's house. Never co-sign for a man. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.
Share this with other ladies.....You'll make someone SMILE, another RETHINK her choices, and another woman PREPARE. They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love! them and an entire lifetime to forget them.

Are you saying that for a man, once a cheater, always a cheater?

I hope you don't mind, I copies that and sent it to a young girl I mentor in High School. I'm also saving a copy for my daughter, it was that well done.

That's one I'm sure Springer and Povich would rather keep a closely gaurded secret.

To all of you....... I wish I could take credit for it but alas I'm not that good a writer, one of my friends sent it to me, but I thought it was profound and wanted to share it with all my
"Sisters" here.
forward to all the women you know....we all can learn from some of this.

This sounds kind of like the first page in a power tool's owner's manual. You know... the page that starts with: "Important Safety Precautions."

I think it covered just about everything. Spongecakes is right. Men should heed these rules about women as well. It goes both ways.
Good going, Star! Glad you shared.
