From the Magic of Making Up

How can you tell if you are in a toxic relationship?  Here are some clues:

·    Your partner puts you down (verbally) in front of others
·    While your partner says they love you, their actions don’t back it up.
·    Your partner is controlling – reading your mail or “showing up” at places you are just to “check up” on you.
·    Your partner tries to make you dependent on them.
·    You have changed things about yourself to please them.

So not only are these 5 tips to get back at your ex but they are also excellent methods for getting your ex back as well.

Magic of Making Up

Most people find themselves asking “What can I do to get my ex girlfriend back” following a breakup. They begin to start thinking and philosophizing about everything that could have been done differently. They even begin to make plans about apology letters and other things that might be able to help them score their relationship back.

For many wives, the very thought of their marriage coming undone is overwhelming. Why did the man that pursued her so vigorously during dating now seem so distant in marriage?

The truth is that if you’re married, those fears don’t have to come true in your relationship. There is a way to rekindle lost passion and make your husband crave spending time with you. Every wife that learns the secrets of their husband’s heart soon discovers the power to influence their husband on a profoundly deep level.

In the middle of a session the other day I had a powerful realization. I was asked to think of a relationship I had with something in the last week that in my mind was the ideal relationship, and to think of what it was about that relationship that made it ideal.

A number of men in the group thought of their cars, tool sheds, families, workmates, old friends, even relationships with objects such as their television remote, recliner chair, or favorite pair of shoes. To each of these men, these things felt comfortable, and simple. The relationships they had with these people or objects was rewarding and easy to maintain.

When my turn came to identify my ideal relationship, I thought of my dog. My dog has very simple needs, and it is the ultimate ego-boost for me when I get home at night and I am greeted in such an enthusiastic fashion. I don’t know of any others that greet me so enthusiastically night after night. No matter how long I have been away from the house or no matter how my day has been. I call this unconditional love.

So what is unconditional love?

“I won’t agree to this amount, I can’t live on that amount, it’s too low!” she said, as she threw back the marriage “divorce” settlement agreement.  Alimony isn’t to be the sole support but to supplement her income if she is a capable person able to earn her own living.  Alimony shouldn’t be looked at as a “lottery” or a way to soak the ex-husband as it often is looked at by the ex-wife.

If she says, “slow the car down, open the car door and let me out”, while you are having a dating argument, go ahead and let her out, say goodbye and be glad that she revealed how she reacts to an argument and how she does the power play.

Unfortunately, the struggle for power seems to be a basic element in all of our relationships.  In particular, it is ever present in our emotional relationships with the women we choose.

A relationship is the cooperation between two people.  It seems very simple yet often hard for many of us to deal with in our lives.

Too often the cooperation involved in the relationship leans more toward a power struggle.  Who will succeed in controlling or dominating the other person?  Who will be able to have their needs met over the other?
