Love and relationships are very relative concepts. On the other hand, some individuals persist in idealizing aspects of love that are really very lacking in reality.
Your relationship experience will be negatively impacted and you won't be ready for what's to come if you hold false assumptions about partnerships.
It is imperative that you refrain from romanticizing the following patterns of relationships in order to avoid becoming unsuccessful:
Sometimes jealousy means someone is madly in love with you. If your spouse feels envious of your ex or male friends, you may assume, "This guy must be so into me!" You could even like that your partner is afraid of losing you and wants all your attention. Jealousy is harmful and unromantic. You'll be in a poisonous relationship with a control freak without knowing it. Suffocation will replace flattery.
You must have seen or heard about a straight woman. Safe and protected. Meanwhile, this courageous renegade is always on the verge. Everybody knows this guy bothers that woman. Their sole bond may be passion. Something our culture romanticizes. The bad individual will likely become an abuser, drug addict, or immature boy who never matures. Should we romanticize that?
No matter how much you want to believe, love can't transform a guy. Run away from emotionally unavailable guys instead of romanticizing them. Most males who say they're emotionally unavailable are just loud. Never committing, they refuse to be attached. To open their hearts to love will fail. You will damage yourself as they prey on someone else.
Men are often excessively persistent in pursuing the lady they admire. Despite her repeated rejections, he persists. A lot of you romanticize this trend. You know what's romantic? Honoring limits and wants. Your life won't alter drastically as in a movie. 'No' generally means 'no' in real life.
Young people think love can conquer anything. You learned it from fairytales, books, and romance. It's sometimes all you want in a guy. Love is all you care about. Truth is different. Respect, healthy communication, shared worldviews, compromises, etc. will matter. Love is merely a foundation; a strong relationship requires equal effort from both parties.
