Okay this is a post for people who continually compromise their values and standards in order to secure “love” in a relationship.
Why do we continue to put our hearts on the line when even in a baseball game a person is out on strike 3?
I want my readers to give me a pledge that they will agree to handle matters which hurt their heart in a specific manner.
Only let it happen three times. The first time confront the individual and tell him/her that their actions, attitude or words are unacceptable.
The second time you remind them in a very firm tone of voice that this is unacceptable and is not going to nurture any feelings of love.
The third time walk away and don’t look back.
I have wasted so much of my life giving people multiple breaks and second chances in relationships.
If a person lies to you once and you catch them at it then put your antennas up.
If they lie to you again it is time to start making your exit plan.
Three times and they are out of your life and they were probably lying all along so don’t shed a tear.
This rule can apply to many things. Road rage, profanity, temper tantrums, acting the fool around someone else when they should be focusing on you, disrespecting your boundaries and trashing your possessions.
Everyone who agrees to pledge allegiance to the rule of 3 please press the like button on this post and stop allowing others to mistreat you.
