LOL don't get me wrong, yes it is nice to look younger, but, when you have people treating you like you said a different way because they think your a kid/teen can be a frustrating. Even my voice sounds like a kid. I had a client call me at work, and, he thought he had dialed the wrong number because he thought he can called a kid/teen by mistake lol. I was like "whoo wait, yes it is me lol" and yes I sound like a child, but, I swear I am over 18 lol.Quote:

There are also health issues like hyperthyroidism that cause weight gain that people don't know they have. Don't assume people are lazy or don't care or intentionally false advertised. Situations change.Quote:

Where did I say "they aren't worth knowing"? We all have acquaintances, but do you want to live and do things with everyone you know? I'll never compromise on a smoker, drunk, crazy, liar, drunk, gambler as a partner is the point am making, no matter how good they are in bed.
If someone is taking more from me than they are bringing to the table...it's not happening period!

I get what beachdown is saying here, if your giving 110% into a relationship and the other person is only putting in like 50% or is added things into the relationship that are not healthy for either party, then, sometimes a partner needs to look at the other partners actions and either work with there partner to better them, or, in some cases some people may leave the relationship/friendship because they do not agree with what the other person is doing or not putting the effort needed. Like if a partner is a drug addict, this can cause distrust, anger, disappointment and health issues when it comes to the relationship. So the partner in that relationship who is with the drug addict partner has to make a choice for themselves. Stay and try and help them, leave them, or be with them and let them keeping acting and being a drug addict. But, I think it depends on each relationship and what is happening in reach relationship. Every couple is different.
very well said.Quote:

But, if your partner will not change, will not get help, or simply does not want to change for the better of the relationship after so many attempts by you to help them, then, the partner doing all the work to help them has to take a good hard look at the situation if this is healthy for them, emotionally and physically. I know love is love, but, sometimes if you truly love someone you have to do "tough love" to get them to see that what they are doing is effecting you and the relationship. AND if that means you have to remove yourself from that person's life to better yourself to make sure you stay healthy emotionally and physically, then, your partner has to understand that just because they have chosen to do things that are unhealthy does not mean you have to chose it as well. AGAIN it depends on the relationship and what issues and problems they are facing together as a couple.Quote:

The environment your partner has created. You have the right to leave and go to a safe environment for yourself and your child. You can still help your partner, but, you do not have to be in that environment to help them as well.
Also, let's say your partner is using heroin and is using dirty needles that have been used by others. You have an intimate relationship with them, and, you get something like AIDS/HIV because of that. Is that fair to you? No, not at all. All I am saying is that people have the right to be in safe environment at all times emotionally and physically. You can still help your partner, but, also in the process protect yourself.
Again it does depending on the situation and issues the couple is dealing with.
