From my past D/s relationship - Ive learned if you really get to know the person prior to the commitment it will usually last and work, if you jump into things, your headed for trouble. Take time to learn about people before any commitment.

From past vanilla relationships - The same applies

Always always ALWAYS listen to my instincts. Regardless of how good it seems, if my instinct told me otherwise, I should listen to it.

First off, it's bad juju to get into a new relationship too soon after a fantabulous kabluey. And just 'cause I think I'm all better doesn't make it true. (way back)

Then there's being able to accept when things have gotten to the point where parting and remaining friends is better than staying together and having it turn to hate.

Also, what they said.

That sometimes things happen which a person simply can't handle, no matter how much you try to help them to accept it.

And that walking away can be the better option.

You cant make someone love you, no matter how wonderful or good to them you are. And you deserve to be loved passionately. I also agree with Tiger. Dont jump to quickly into the next relationship. Heal yourself and heal your patterns.

i have learned to live the moments and to remain in the moment. not to concern myself by what may not occur. trust in my instincts and desires for what is best for me at a given time. if they lead me in a direction hold firm. even when doubts loom and uncertainty rears its head. take a risk. don't allow fear to impede my steps. tomorrow is never promised and no guarantees exist. but in this lifetime you will encounter Someone that leads you to step out on faith into the unknown, and embrace everything that it brings. for the opportunity of having something utterly fulfilling.

this is what You've taught me.

To not get too intense or attached to a new relationship too soon. If the other does not love you, either accept it or move on. I have learned to forgive those who have hurt me. When a relationship ends, have some dignity, treat yourself better and then move on. As Tiger says, don't jump into another relationship until you have completely healed from a previous breakup. My patterns of selection were not great and for the first time, I am learning how to weed those who are not compatible to my needs. I also try to leave on good terms if the relationship is not working out for me.

Liars lie most about themselves.
Acting can't be maintained long term.
Words are the worst method of communicating emotions, desires, and perspective.
People do not fundamentally change.
Holding anything back from a partner holds the relationship back.
'Sins' of omission more detrimental than 'sins' of commit-ion.
Nothing is misunderstood or misinterpreted when disclosed nakedly.
Silence is the first symptom of a dying relationship.
Boredom comes in second by a nose.
'Like' wanes with the accompanying 'frenzy'. Love grows and 'frenzy' never peaks, just plateaus and provides a jumping point to the next level of intensity.

Forgiveness is impossible, everybody wants it but few are willing to give it, one screw up and it's bye bye birdie because that is easier than fixing the problem.

If you don't put your tender lil feelings out there, they won't get stomped on.

Everybody lies.

There are alot of cowards who claim to want happiness, but are just so mired in their misery they won't take the chance.
