Believe Him

Back in my 20’s, I remember a friend of mine came back from a trip just over the moon after meeting a guy on an airplane who was cute and charming and you know the rest. He invited her to visit for the weekend. She did and they had an amazing time, so much so that it showed in the twinkle in her eye the day she was to go home.

That made him nervous as he told her “Oh no…..now don’t go liking me now.” She was baffled, but just shrugged it off and got on the plane after a sweet goodbye.

She never heard from him again. After a wave of disappointment, she exhaled and said to me…”Ok….got the lesson….here it is….when they say “Don’t like me”…….BELIEVE them!

Sometimes we women have the tendency, due to our sweet hearts and sometimes ego, to tell ourselves “I’ll be the one to change him…..he’ll come around”…….My friend’s story has been a familiar one for most of us.

So from now on don’t go trying to change, fix or rescue him. Choose men who come to the table with the character traits and readiness you require to be in a relationship with you. BIG difference.

Speak Your Mind
