I was breakfasting this AM with a delicious morsel of a friend. During the course of the conversation, it turned to Relationship Rules. These were offered and I thought they would benefit the Good of the Group of Divas/Dudes - whether you're in a relationship or it's time to have a chat with a child about relationship boundaries. Food for thought:
It's all over when any of the following occur:
- The other person says, "I don't love you anymore." Yep, that's the fork in the proverbial meat there, n'est pas? If they say it and later try to say they didn't mean it, leave anyway 'cause it's just hateful and that's ... well, not loving. AT ALL.
- The other person gets so mad that s/he leaves you somewhere by yourself (side of the road, at a party without a word of goodbye, etc.). In this day and age, safety is a big deal. Feeling safe in a relationship is a big deal. This situation occurs, the other party is bluntly telling you that s/he doesn't care one whit what happens to you. It's OVER.
- Physical contact - not of the good kind- out of anger. There's no excuse for that ... EVER. The other person is willing to hurt you to the point it leaves physical evidence. Yeah. OVER.
While these are Splendid, I knew these would get you contributing because there is more meat here. Does anyone else have any relationship rules of non-engagement (so to speak)? It is, after all, for the good of the group. DISH!!!!
XOXO!

I think those are great basic rules. Though, I have been known to break up with a guy because he would pour me drinks without me looking. Yeah, someone I was in a relationship with did that. Did he think he had to do that? He was taking me home - until then. I don't like when guys pull tricks that can mess with your health or going to work the next day. Not that I mind being tipsy all the time, but there's a diff.
