Relationships

It’s 2017 & it’s quite sad to see how this generation treats relationships. I kid you not, I’ve witnessed more successful relationships in middle school! Crazy thing is, I’m sure most of us didn’t even know what love was yet. But there we were, trying to figure out how we were going to ask our boyfriend or girlfriend to the 8th grade dance 😭… Fast forward ten years later, we have boyfriends, girlfriends, and love interest on the side.

Once you get in a committed relationship, I don’t see why it’s so hard to focus on that one person. If you don’t want to be with them anymore, then be a woman or man about it and let them know that. No one deserves to be cheated on, nor do they deserve the heartbreak that comes along with it. If there’s problems in the relationship, talk it out.
Holding those problems in is what starts arguments, because the person refuses to talk about it when it first starts to bother them. I believe one of the main reasons why relationships don’t work out, is because both parties refuse to put in the same effort. Relationships shouldn’t be anything but 50/50. Never should the other person feel like the other doesn’t care or isn’t appreciated.

Sex is another big issue with this generation. Boys are more interested in “Hitting it” or Getting it in” the pants, rather than the heart. There’s so much more to a relationship than that. What happened to going on dates? Late night conversations? People with the manners? A plan? God-fearing men?

Granted there’s still some good guys out there, but they are most definitely hard to find. I don’t think guys completely understand how sex can affect a female. It affects us both mentally and emotionally. Ladies, we have to learn to say no and make these guys earn it. Our body is our temple. Gentleman, please think twice or even more before you approach a lady with bad intentions. The last thing anyone would want to do is, do something that they’ll regret later.

Wait…. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

We have a long way to go before we get to the relationship goals of Jack & Rebeca, Martin & Gina, Dwayne & Whitley, && Corey & Topanga. Our mind set have to be long term, not temporary. You have  to focus on years, not days, weeks or months. When in doubt on if a relationship is what you want, I’ve heard “Self love” is the best love their is 😇
