Oprah's advice to woman about man and relationship

by Oprah


Ø If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.

Ø Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.

Ø Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.

Ø Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.

Ø Slower is better.

Ø Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve
then heck no, you can't "be friends".

Ø A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
Don't stay because you think "it will get better."

Ø You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
Always have your own set of friends separate from his.

Ø If something bothers you, speak up.

Ø Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.

Ø You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.

Ø Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are…even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
Never let a man define who you are.

Ø If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

Ø You should not be the one doing all the bending…compromise is a two way street.

Ø Deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.

Ø Look for someone complimentary… not supplementary.

Ø Dating is fun…even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
Make him miss you sometimes…
when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him
he takes it for granted.

Ø Never move into his mother's house.

Ø Never co-sign for a man.

Ø Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.

Ø Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

Share this with other women and men (just so they know)…
You'll make someone smile , another rethink her choices , and another woman prepare.
