This is one of the major factors why relationships wont last they believed on others opinion instead of themselves,therefore we need to verify first before we believe on something……

This is literally the rhetoric abusers use to control their victims and keep them isolated. It is always okay to confide in friends and family. Always.

I agree.. just be wise, just listen to those people who really care and understand u, and trash those worthless opinion of those worthless people who doesnt help just give u an headache and negative thinking!

I’m not looking fr a perfect one. but I’m looking for someone who understands me not only my words but rather most of my silence.. :] #single
Fall in love with someone who doesn’t make you think love is hard <3

Yeah that’s funny… Especially when the other one in this so called thing tests the waters and rocks the boat… All the time….

and too many do…and too many wont let exs go…when one does this….they are fakes..and liars….too many dont know what a real relationship is these days or what real love is.

No one’s planting sweet it’s too damn cold. No one that loves you let’s you freeze. It’s close to death. He’s keeping someone warm that’s for sure. It’s just not me.

Just two days ago you posted about women having men for best friends. One of the reasons were because they are there to talk to about relationship problems. Now you post this?

So true. A girl once told me to be careful about my own boyfriend because he dated her cousin and his ex spreaded rumors that he was abusive. I didn’t take her warning and not only has he been my boyfriend for over a year but he’s also never hit me. Never take anyone’s warning until you see it for yourself.

I’m pretty sure at least your families opinion should matter. Sometimes they see things you don’t or know things about you and what you really want that you don’t realize could make or break a relationship.

This is so true! I’m so sick of people trying to put their two sense into my relationship. Case in point, I mistakenly told someone my boyfriend and I had sex and they decided to go on about how it was too early and I should of waited and now that’s all he’s going to want from me. They proceeded to also say our relationship won’t be pure if that’s all we do. Needless to say, he and I are both adults, who know what we want. We both love and care for each other. If we want to do… Read more »

I will always listen to others opinions because some of it is good, you just have to be able to filter out all the bullshit.

If you can do marriage in public why not courtship? For me Courtship is the time when both of you know the real you. Investigate your partner background. There you can decide if your partner is really the one. Use your head not your heart. I’ve learned from my past.

Women have the most difficult time with this. Women are in such competition with each other. Hating their man because what someone else’s man is doing. Or keeping up with what society is doing. Or simply keeping up with the Jones. If women would focus on their Marriage & encourage their man more. A lot of Marriages would be saved. You don’t going beating on your man emotionally or limiting him with you sexually, physically or emotionally because you want your way or want what someone else has. You get into focus in a positive manner in how to reach… Read more »

This is so true, even family criticize and think they have the right to accuse or affirm something they can show in evidence, i rather nkt have my family involved, if im wrong im sorry but my private life is my private life i think people shouldn’t listen to any kind of opinion sometimes those opinions can cause problems, always listen to ur heart and live ur life happy dont post anything not even ur happiness.

There is a difference between opinions and sound advice worth considering.

“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.”
-Proverbs 12:15 ESV

My bf sister. She thinks that because I have a temper I hit him. I don’t and have never hit anyone (apart from my sister). He had some bruises on his arm and I got the blame. The truth was that he had a glass of port on top of his seizure meds and passed out on way home. He got taken to hospital. Either he got bruises as he fell or when he got taken into ambulance. I was at my flat 8 miles away, so there was no way I gave him those bruises. Now cos of her,… Read more »

Unfortunately, these days.. men are in a relationship with women AND their friends. Their friends have SUCH a say in their daily lives, that it’s becoming nearly impossible to have any privacy. When an argument arises, they’ll be the first to tell her ‘there’s so much better out there’ or ‘you don’t deserve that’ or the good ole ‘there’s other fish in the sea’ .. all because of a simple disagreement or fight. Working things out, being ‘all in’ is a thing of the past, sadly. And it breaks my heart. So cheers to all of the mature, loving women… Read more »

If you actually believe this then you probably don’t deserve any other kind of relationship. Being with someone effects the people that love you for good or bad. Sometimes they are the only ones that can see your relationship for what it really is because they aren’t jaded by rose colored glasses. Grow up. Listen to your loved ones. Of course it isn’t black and white, sometimes they are wrong, but don’t ignore them and shut them out because you want to act like a high schooler with a crush.

I guess that is why there are posts that admonish keeping your love life private and not a thing to post on FB given the fact that a lot of people will feel the right to shove their opinion into your relationship.
It would have been naturally okay to be proud and declare your love but the way some people behave in social media is just a very frustrating thing.

I disagree. There are times you need wise counsel from friends and family. Sometimes it can be hard to see things for what they are when you are emotionally involved. Also, in the case of abuse, it should NEVER be between you and your partner. Talk to someone and get the help you need!

So true…you listen to your feelings and what your heart is saying..don’t let others influence you when it comes to your relationship..some friends are good and positive but there is always that 1 trying to drag you in another direction..usually b/c they are lonely and miserable and don’t want to be alone there ( experienced this recently )
