Ask your yourself..

Q: are you guys better together, or apart?

Let your heart answer.. not brain
(I emphasize this)

Your Answer!!..

I respectfully disagree.

The heart wants what it wants.
But the brain knows what it needs.

Besides.. Just because we love someone, does not mean, we can or should live with them. Or that they are good for us.

The question is too simplistic and cannot be answered with any degree of honesty or accuracy ....

At exactly what point in the relationship are you supposed to ask that question?

Constantly?

Because in any relationship there is going to come a point where if you sit down and analyze it, or just rely on how you're feeling at the time, you can justify that you're better apart.

Let your heart answer.. not brain

That's not very helpful.
That's usually what battered wives listen to when they stick around abusive spouses.

How about instead of putting some kind of mystical oracle in your organs, giving up responsibility for your actions, and allowing it to tell you what to do, say something like "put some thought AND feeling into it if you're having doubts, and make sure you're making the right decision" or something like that?

The question itself is valid, provided you do not interpret "successful" with "till death do us part".
A relationship that ends is usually successful too, just that most don't see it that way. In that sense, there is no failure, only lessons you learn from a partner till you yourself are whole.

But empowered or not (yet), the answer to the question should still be "Yes!"

Very true miss. It is a hard lesson to learn. :-(

Actually, more relationships based on THIS particular bit of "logic" fail than any other kind.

All these people are giving you BS answers. Don't listen to them.

Here's what you do.

Buy yourself a magic 8-ball. Then follow what is tells you to do. It takes all the stress off of you and is correct 100% of the time.

I've asked this question twice and I have found an answer that has worked for me ever since.

Any women that wants to be with me is ether crazy or REALLY desperate!

FIRST PART ; I respectfully disagree. THE CONSCIOUS BRAIN FOR THE MOST PART DOES

NOT KNOW JACK.....IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT DISCIPLINE YOU CHOSE THEY WILL AGREE

WITH MY OPINION I AM SURE.....2ND PART : THE PROBLEM IS OUR OWN UNCONSCIOUS

PERSONAL DEFINITION OF LOVE (IMAGO).....

Ummm... when I asked her if I can put it in there... and she says yes..please..
It's a success...
If she looks at me... and says are you freaking crazy... you're not putting that !!!..in there...

Well... apart from a little ego boost for me..lol.. other than that it's definitely not going to work out...



Some women just don't like it when you put your car keys in there cookie jar..
Go figure..lol
