Love, Trust, Respect

Love: The natural feeling of affection one has for somebody else
Trust: The feeling of security that someone else will not hurt or harm you
Respect: The feeling of added value that someone provides to you or to the environment

A healthy relationship is based on respect.
It's when:
-you have fun together
-you both feel like you can be yourself
-you can have different opinions and interests
-you listen to each other
-you trust each other
-you can both compromise, say sorry, and talk arguments out
-you don't have to spend all of you spare time together - you can spend time on your own, or with your own friends and family.

TIPS to help you and your partner develop trust in each other.
-Be consistent.
-Be on time. When you have to be late, call and say you'll be late.
-Do what you say you will do, and call when you say you will call.
-Don't lie - not even little white lies - to your partner or to others.
-Be fair, even in an argument.
-Be sensitive to the other's feelings. You can still disagree, but don't discount how your partner feels.
-Carry your fair share of chores.
-Respect your partner's boundaries.
-Be a good listener.
-Try not to overreact when things go wrong.
-Don't dig up old wounds. Remember that once you say things, you can't take them back.
-Don't be jealous.

~ Trust allows both of you to reveal who you really are ~

Building Trust
Trust doesn't just naturally happen between two people, even if they love each other. It takes work and if you've been hurt in the past, it can be especially difficult. Building trust takes time, you need to show your partner that you are trustworthy and that you trust them in return. If your partner has trouble trusting, you can do a lot to create an environment where trust can grow. Listen to your partner, respect him and his opinions, and accept him as he is. Reveal parts of your own history, show him that you trust him and you will help him to do the same. If you are vulnerable it helps your partner to feel that he is safe to be vulnerable as well.

T.H.O.U.G.H.T.S

- Instead of following the unhelpful thoughts, make a practice of ignoring them
- Don't turn them into the day's front-page-headlines
- Try to let'em go and move on
- Move on and enjoy wat's ya doing now
- Being happy in your life is NOT about what happens to you but how u respond to those events - whether you're a glass-half-empty or half-full-kind of person

Meaningful...LOVE

I rec'd tis email from mengyee..and i found it's reali meaningful and it helps many ppl to express their feelings.. it helps actually..

To My Friends Who Are...........SINGLE 
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it will come to you when you least expect it.Love can make you happy but often it hurts, but love's only special when you give it to someone who is really worth it. So take your time and choose the best. 

To My Friends Who Are............NOT SO SINGLE 
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's 'perfect person.' It's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be

To My Friends Who Are............PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE 
Never say 'I love you' if you don't care. Never talk about feelings if they aren't there. Nevertouch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look in the eye when all you do is lie. The cruelest thing a guy can do to a girl is to let her fall in love when he doesn't intend to catch her fall and it works both ways...

To My Friends Who Are............MARRIED 
Love is not about 'it's your fault', but 'I'm sorry.' Not 'where are you', but 'I'm right here.' Not 'how could you', but 'I understand.' Not 'I wish you were', but 'I'm thankful you are.' 

To My Friends Who Are............ENGAGED 
The true measure of compatibility is not the years spent together but how good you are for each other

To My Friends Who Are............HEARTBROKEN 
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them

To My Friends Who Are............NAIVE 
How to be in love: Fall but don't stumble, be consistent but not too persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not to demandand get hurt but never keep the pain.

To My Friends Who Are............POSSESSIVE 
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy with someone else but it's more painful to know that the one you love is unhappy with you.

To My Friends Who Are............AFRAID TO CONFESS 
Love hurts when you break up with someone. It hurts even more when someone breaks up with you. But love hurts the most when the person you love has no idea how you feel.

To My Friends Who Are............STILL HOLDING ON 
A sad thing about life is when you meet someone and fall in love, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and that you have wasted years on someone who wasn't worth it. If he isn't worth it now he's not going to be worth it a year or 10 years from now. Let go.....

TO ALL MY FRIENDS....... 
My wish for you is a man/women whose love is honest, strong, mature, never-changing, uplifting, protective, encouraging, rewarding and unselfish
