You know a guy is not
good for you if...
1. You are constantly making excuses for his bad behavior.
2. There are times you feel fear and/or anxiety when you are around him. You are worried how he will react to you or to something you have done.
3. You find yourself giving in to demands that are against your personal sense of decency or morality.
4. His words of love do not match his actions.
5. You keep justifying and denying those nagging feelings that something is not right.
6. He tells you what you want and need.
7. He tries to inhibit or damage your relationships with your friends and family.
8. You find yourself wanting to inappropriate please him to gain his approval or love.
9. You feel you have to live a secret life (that doesn't involve anything inappropriate) so he won't get angry.
10. He has emotionally or physically abused you.
However, when a relationship is harming your spirit, damaging your self-esteem, wasting your time and energy it is time to move on.
Better to be without a man than be with a hurtful man who is not right for you.
I gain strength, courage and confidence
by every experience in which I must stop and
look fear in the face... I say to myself,
I've lived through this and
can take the next thing that comes along...
We must do the things
we think we cannot do.
~Eleanor Roosevelt~
