Want balance in your life regarding relationships? First “remove all doubt, what you know and what you think you know about a person and give them 100% of your trust, honesty and affection.” Do this and patiently, faithfully wait. Just keep smiling and loving life enjoying the blessed seed you’ve sown. After awhile (a short while) if it’s not reciprocated, move on. Easier said than done, I understand but if you truly want balance in your life, it’s up to YOU to step off the scale of probability, enablement and codependency and invest, love, respect and develop, someone who’s willing to (at the least) meet you halfway. In this you would have established a common ground i.e. the first stage of balance. This applies to all relationships: careers, friendships, place of worship, old acquaintances, family members, coworkers, financial investments and so on. No, I didn’t include marriages (that’s another post – if you’d like)! Last point, and it’s a biggie! If at first you have a doubt, whether it’s you, your past or the other party, you’re already headed in the WRONG direction! Here’s the remedy, deal with yourself first, forgive yourself, remove all baggage and love yourself enough to faithfully move on into God’s favor for your life. What happens next is totally up to you. I suggest, removing all doubt, what you know and what you think you know about a person and give them 100% of your trust, honesty and affection.”

*There is a difference between waiting, being patient and allowing time for a relationship to develop. Just know if you’re at the ultimatum stage, the prior differences mentioned, may have turned into denial. You deserve better! Find – your – balance!
