I think we need to develop a powerful dose of tolerance to understand each other’s humanness. None of us is perfect.

Without trust, our relationships lack an essential ingredient for emotional intimacy. We need to be able to totally trust our partner with our deepest thoughts, dreams, fears, and secrets.

Screaming and repeating lies makes them neither true nor more believable.

Sexy is a decision. We decide that our spouse looks sexy to us. Period. It doesn’t matter our age or how long we’ve been together.

If a man or a woman starts “expecting” sex, then it is no longer special, and a lover will likely start to feel used.

There is tremendous trauma in the betrayal caused by a perpetual liar as they repeatedly commit psychological abuse.

Some people believe that if they yell and scream, others will get the point of just how serious they are. For me, all I get is the point of just how out of control that someone is.

In truth, if it isn’t to save your life when it’s in imminent danger, someone yelling at you is just plain wrong. The same is true for ranting or bitching. The same goes double for anything even close to manhandling.

When we make the decisions to be and stay in love, we should also make a decision and commitment to be supportive.
