TEN WAYS YOU CAN DESTROY A RELATIONSHIP !!
Sunday, May 9, 2010 / 9:53 PM
Hey peeps , today I learnt a lot about relationships , love and such .
Had bible study w my dear Enyun today and I've decided to share a little what I've learnt today .
That is as what the title of my blog is the ten ways you can destroy a relationship .
Relationships in general like friendships .
I find to super essential to know this to survive in society .
TEN WAYS YOU CAN DESTROY A RELATIONSHIP ! :O
1. Manipulation .
Like putting in threatens and such to force your ways into them .
Such things can even come in small forms like being a wet blanket , getting fed up because things in a group doesnt go according to your liking .
Sometimes , just be easygoing .
2. Lies .
When there's no more trust , the relationship will die .
Seriously , this is as obvious as The Boy Who Cried Wolf .
3. Gossips .
It separates the best of friends .
"He who covers a transgression seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates friends." - Proverbs 17:9
Seriously , just keep out of talking bad about someone , it'll just backfire and the person will come to know about it . Sooner or later .
I know that times you may want to rant to a neutral friend and then settle the issue rather than keeping silent in front of the person and tells everyone else about the person's issues .
4. Ignorance .
Especially when your friends are at moments when they need someone .
It's okay to ignore the negatives of this irritable friend of yours , perhaps . But do take note when your friend really needs you , dunt ignore them .
Be interested in their problems . To a level as well , you dunt want to be called seybo !
5. Rejection .
Accept people for who they are . Change your mindset first , dunt develop prejudice .
6. Overstay your welcome .
"Seldom set foot in your neighbour's house, lest he become weary of you and hate you." - Proverbs 25:17
I believe the verse says it all .
7. Topic , YOU .
Always talking about yourself ? Just learn to listen too !!
You have two ears and only one mouth please .
8. Broken promises .
When you promise to do something for someone and then you dunt do it .
You dunt even fail to fulfill it , you just promised and dunt do it .
Similar to lying , that's when your words are empty .
9. No returns .
When you borrow money and dunt pay back !
I mean , money is important to us in this world .
A couple of times , it's okay . Everyone has their limits , this doesnt concern generosity or stinginess .
10. Humiliation .
No , not yourself but when you embarrass people in front of others .
Build them up and not tear them down .
Would you still want to hang out with someone that always pulls down your self-esteem ?
So yeah , it's not easy but I'm putting them into practice !!
I hope I can be a better friend .
Not forgetting the essence of any great relationship , is LOVE .
