Open Your Heart

It’s a struggle and simply impossible to have a perfect relationship, but as time goes on I feel as though I just simple fail at relationships. Especially when it has to do with a relationship with a significant other. I seem to never get it right, but after some self-evaluation. I think I have found the possible problem, and I think I can shed some light on some of those issues and help others with the same problem.

Any who, I haven’t dated many guys any way. I had my first boyfriend when I was 18, and I simply thought that relationship failed due to the lack of communication, and that it possibly wasn't meant to be. But, as soon as I met my amazing and EVER so patience boyfriend. I started to realize some familiar and unconscious actions that I would make in my relationship, and they weren't healthy.

You see, I am a person that has been known to not let many people into my world. I would always keep people at a distance and only allow them to come close, but not too close. So, with that being said. I also brought that behavior into my relationship, and many know if you’re not open in your relationship. It cannot continue to grow, and that’s what occurred.

I have made a conscious decision to work on myself so that I won’t continue to push away my boyfriend. It’s easier said than done, but I truly believe if I work hard enough that will change. I know now that communication is very important, and it is also extremely important to remember to talk about the things that you don’t feel comfortable or have questions about. This rule is not only for people in relationships with significant others, but this goes for all relationships. All relationships take work, and if you can take anything from this post today. Remember to stay open to the one’s you love, learn to trust, and don’t be afraid of getting hurt. You only have one life, one Chance so make the best of everything you can in life.
