Deal With That Stressful Relationship!
Like I wrote in my previous post, sometimes we become saddled with relationships that stress us rather than enhance and bring out the best in us. This leaves us angry and bitter instead of leaving us with that pleasant feeling of being with someone you love. If you find yourself in that kind of a situation, what should you do about it?
Take out the time to answer these questions:
I believe that all marital relationships founded on genuine love are worth fighting for. That is, fight for your own spouse not somebody's else's. On the other hand, I firmly believe that not all platonic relationships are worth the effort, especially the ones characterized by incessant misunderstanding in-spite of all effort to resolve them. Like I said previously the relationship should be mutually satisfying.
A relationship need not end in bitterness. You can part ways as amicably as you can. Explain as gently as possible why you think it can not continue ( you will be surprised the other person thinks differently).

- Is the relationship worth fighting for?
- What am I doing to contribute to the problem?
- What can i do to bring about a positive change or to restore the relationship?
