7 Ways to Identify a Wrong Relationship before It Start
We spend
just about 20% of our life living single, the remaining 80% of it will be
committed to someone we swore to spend the rest of our life with in the
presence of many witnesses. Our relationship can either lead us to heaven or be
the reason for us ending in hell. Many of us do not seek ‘God’s Will’ for a lot
of issues in life except in choosing a life partner. We tend to handle it
spiritually most of the time. However there are also some things that we can
see physically before we go spiritual. These 7 ways will not only save you from
starting a relationship that will eventually upset you but it will also help
you to guide against ‘wasted time’.
Communication
The easiest
way to know if someone is truly interested in you is through communication. You
are probably wondering how that is possible especially when you just met and
you have not spoken about a lot of things. You can tell the level of interest
of anybody from their conversation especially someone that you already know
wants to be ‘more than a friend’. If you
have been spending some time together and he/she seem not to be ‘very’ interested
in ‘you’ (everything about you like
your family, childhood, ambition, interests etc.). Trust me, his/her interest
is somewhere else, you are probably a distraction for the moment to him/her.
Expression of Affection
Is he/she
quick to express his/her affection towards you? Quick to declare his/her love
to you? Is everything moving so fast that you feel dizzy? Then there is
something wrong somewhere. This shows you need some air to breath. You need
time to think straight. You need to see clearly to choose rightly. Anyone that
is careless to proclaim his/her love when she is not sure about it has every
tendency to be careless with words that will hurt you.
Sex
Anyone that
is intent on touching you intimately when you are not committed in marriage has
no long term plan for you because ‘true love’ will wait for the right time and
the right way. If he/she demands for sex before marriage, it shows that he/she
is selfish, ungodly and unfaithful and lacks self control. He/she does not have
to sleep with you to show his/her potency.
Belief
Anyone that
does not have a relationship with God is a NO-NO. Why?? It is because if he/she
does not know God, he/she cannot understand what love is and can never know the
purpose of marriage. God did not introduce marriage for the fun of it. He (God)
did not create Adam and Eve just to make babies everywhere and eat the fruits
in the garden.
Selfishness
Naturally,
man is selfish. We tend to think only about ourselves before anyone else. This
is why Jesus said “Love your neighbor as yourself”. We do not need a preacher
before we love ourselves neither do we have to learn it. Jesus is asking us to allow
ourselves to love others as easily as we love ourselves. It is only someone
that has this truth that can believe that it is possible.
If he/she
is always not concerned about your cut of most of the situations that involves
the two of you, no matter how simple or little, if it is a man; he cannot love
you, if it is a woman; she cannot submit to you. A selfish person will never
make a good spouse because you will keep giving and he/she will keep receiving without
consideration.
Unfaithfulness
Being unfaithful
does not necessarily mean he/she is cheating on you. Anyone that is a liar is
unfaithful. Anyone that can lie to you will cheat on you without giving it a
second thought. How will you know if he/she is unfaithful? You will know a liar
through little and unnecessary situations that does not warrant his/her lies.
Insecurity
It is very
easy to mistake insecurity for love because an insecure person is very
possessive. The common excuse of a possessive person is how important you are
to them such that they do not want to leave you. An insecure person is very
dangerous because of their ability to abuse the one they claim to love either
verbally, sexually, physically, morally, emotionally, psychologically etc. Insecurity
begets possessiveness which also begets abuse.
These attribute
is not for you to judge others but also to improve your ways.
