The red flags you see in the beginning of a relationship typically become the reasons a relationships fails later on.

He doesn’t respond to your messages? He doesn’t care.
He doesn’t respond with definitive plans? Planning with you is not a priority.
He doesn’t do what he said he will do? He is not in his own integrity.

These things are typically written off at the beginning of a relationship because you don’t want to be “too much.” BE TOO MUCH. IF HAVING STANDARDS AND BEING TREATED WITH RESPECT IS TOO MUCH, THEN PLEASE BE TOO MUCH 🖤

I’ve coached a lot of women and I’ve had a lot of relationships. I promise you, the issues that come up in the beginning of a relationship will likely be huge issues later on – especially because you’ve likely accepted behavior you aren’t truly okay with.

Wanting a text back is okay. Wanting to make plans in advance is okay. Wanting someone to do what they say they will do is okay. You are not asking for much. This is the bare minimum.

If you are hoping things will get better without putting real work into making it better internally and with your partner, all you are actually doing is wasting your time.

It takes two people to have a relationship and only one person to break it. Make sure you are not the only one holding on.
