Dear Alice,
Having just ended yet another relationship, hindsight, as usual has come into 20/20 focus. and as usual you ask yourself, "why did I ignore the warning signs"?
Alice, not to sound cynical but there are ALWAYS warning signs. but we, those head over heels, madly in love, fantastically infatuated beings choose to look the other way.
In the early stages of courting a jealous boyfriend seems loving, but a year in when the jealousy has amplified, we often are shock. Why? people show you who they are. Perhaps not blatantly, but in subtle ways. Are we just so blinded by love and happiness that we take leave of our senses?
Alice we owe it to ourselves to pay attention to the warning signs or we are doomed to deal with bad behavior and annoying idiosyncrasies.
If a girl doesn't shave her snatch in the beginning of a relationship what makes you think she will be inclined to shave it 6 months in? If a man gets drunk and hung over every week do you think that behavior will change later? If this hot guy cheated on his girlfriend WITH you, doesn't it stand to reason that he may cheat ON you?
So Alice what choices do we have? Well there are two. 1) confront the behavior and deal with the outcome. or 2)acknowledge the warning signs, cut your loses and head for the hills.
Because what a person is, will always be revealed, however it's up to us to pay attention to the warning signs...which, let's be honest, are ALWAYS there.
All My Love and Adoration
Teddy
