Dear Friends … He needs what you want him to give you

Dear Friends,

It’s easy to fall into making your partner’s behavior about you. But it’s not about you. And when we truly love somebody, we want them to be nice for their sake, not for ours. We want them to grow for their sake, not ours. And … we want them to know and understand us for their sake, not ours.

And, if your partner is to know and understand you, he/she must first know and understand himself. He can only love you as well as he loves himself.

And by simply loving a sweetheart unconditionally, we give him a safe place to discover his authentic self. When he begins to know the wonder of him, he also begins to know the wonder of you, and how truly lovable you both are.

So, let’s not stop at wanting a partner to love us better. Let’s help him to love himself better!
