Mistake #5: You Don't Develop the Skills
Often, two good people get together and are happy for a while, but then one of them starts to harm or neglect the relationship. Even healthy, smart and attractive people sometimes don't know how to relate. They try to find the reason for miserable love lives, "blaming the stars" for the latest breakup, or lack of closeness with their partner - when usually they don't understand how to communicate, or ask for what they want.

The Warning Sign:
Once they learned those crucial aspects, their relationships improve, and they are able to get back that spark. So, if you've lost your spark with the one you love, or if he used to seem like your dream man but now you're not so sure, or if he's withdrawn from you and is not as enthusiastic as you'd like, then your relationship skills need an upgrade. You have the power to improve your love life.

i love my girldfriend as much as i could possibly love anyone in this world, but she recently said that she needs space and time to figure herself out before she could be in a relationship... why does she think that she cant be with me right now?

i know how it hard this is for you. But just think that she doesn't want to hurt you a lot at the future realizing that she's not ready for the relationship adn still confuse with her feelings. it's better to give her the time and space, it's the best thing for the both of you. Just keep this in mind that all things work together for good.

"You cannot turn a man who is not good at relationships, or healthy enough emotionally, into a man who is."

Another possibility is a man (or woman) who's so emotionally healthy that they don't NEED a coupled relationship to be happy. Such examples include Oprah, Mr. Clooney, also Elena Kagen, Condi Rice, etc, etc...

Happily single people should not be considered as "lacking" in some regard.

This is an atrociously bad example of how to "read" men. I - and many others who I know - like women (most of my platonic friends are women), get along with my family and coworkers, and am happily uncommitted and single. This is slovenly, stereotypical thinking that would state otherwise like in the "mistake #2."

In the mid-20th century, people might ask why someone would choose a partner of another race, rather than sticking with "their own kind." Well, this article displays a similar prejudice.

Lastly, this article equates "Caring about material things" with being "ambitious"? A certain Jesus of Nazareth, as well as Ghandi, etc, were ambitious without caring about material things.

Astrology is a religion. It was practiced by the ancient Chaldeans, who formed the Neo-Babylonian Empire. If you follow Astrology you are either a fool or an Iraqi who looks to the distant past.

Maria, think three or four times before entering a possibly illegal relationship with your middle school teacher. Sure he's nice, but if he messes with you, he could end up the nicest guy in the state prison. All of this a*sumes you are under 18. If you are over 18 and in middle school, how do you fit into the desks?
