According to the article, here are the 8 signs to prove whether you're ready for a relationship..
So, I was reading an article the other day on Madam Noire about signs to prove whether you're ready for a relationship or not.. And after reading the article, I wanted to add my two cents..
1. No More Clubs- I do believe that you can be in a relationship and still go clubbing with you girls or even your man from time to time.. Just because you're in a relationship does not mean that all aspects of your social life should come to a halt.. In fact, you both should still have a social life.. If all you do is spend time together, you might start to get tired of each other.. So, aside from your relationship, I do think you both should also have a social relationship with your friends as well to balance things out..
2. No Insecurities- I agree with this one 100%.. You definitely do not want to get involved in a relationship with a few underlying insecurities, hoping and praying that it will just go away once you're in a relationship, because it won't.. And if your significant other is the one with the insecurities, please don't try to "fix it" like me.. If the issues are beyond you such as trust issues due to a previous relationship, run as fast as you can and never look back! Trust me on this one..
3. Responsible For Your Actions- I also fully agree with this one.. You can't go into a relationship and never want to "man up" to your faults.. You cannot always go along in life blaming others for your mishaps.. You gotta look in the mirror and really evaluate your life and start taking responsibility for your actions..
4. You Are Healed- This is also a major one.. It is very important that when entering a new relationship, that you are fully healed and completely over your ex.. Please do not start a new relationship still dragging behind baggage from a past relationship, because it is not fair to the new person you're with and it's also not fair to yourself..
5. You Love Yourself- Also a major one.. Because if you do not love yourself, there is no way in hell that you will be able to love someone else.. It's just impossible.. According to Barbara De Angelis, "If you aren't good at loving yourself. You will have a difficult time loving anyone, since you'll resent the time and energy you give another person that you aren't giving to yourself." #RealTalk
6. You're Selfless- You cannot be selfish in a relationship, it just doesn't work like that.. A relationship is a two way street.. You both have to give and take.. One person can't be giving 20% and the other giving 80%.. It's either 50/50 or you both giving it 100% point blank period..
7. You Are Happy Alone- You can't depend on someone else to make you happy.. Because I'll tell you right now that is the #1 way to make yourself very unhappy.. If you can't be happy alone, you definitely can't look to someone else to keep you happy.. Cuz it ain't gonna happen..
8. You're Ex is Gone- You can't continue to string your ex along once you know for a fact that you are done with this person.. It makes no sense to keep an ex around, especially when you're ready to move forward with your life.. It's not fair to your new boo and it's also not fair to your ex.. And if you continue to string your ex along.. Sooner or later someone will get hurt and you do not want that..
