Let's chat
It's not you, it's me. Or maybe it's that we have no idea what we're talking about here. The following are a few rules about love, and some ideas about communication. After all, we're nowhere if we can't talk about it (even if we aren't always good at saying what's on our minds).

the rules of love...as i see it
So, being the insightful young woman that i am (well, sort of) i made a short list of rules that i think should be more widely followed in the world of love. and i am SUCH an expert. lol
This list will, of course, appear in the book i'll write someday to be titled "Communication: Grow a pair and talk"
catchy, i know.
1. Don't cheat, and don't take a cheater back. Unless the said offender comes crawling back to you crying and it's the first time they've done it and they were drunk, don't accept the apology. This is because if you do, they'll do it again. and again. and again. and why on earth would you want to be with someone who doesn't think you're worth being faithful to? I don't care how fantastic you think they are, if they're cheating on you, they're obviously scum. end of story.
2. Guys, i understand that you're trying to do the honorable thing when you stay with a girl you're not in love with anymore because you don't want to hurt her, but honestly? Don't. Do both you and her a favor and break it off before you end up cheating on her - because trust me, that will hurt her a lot more. More to the point, if you're seriously that afraid of hurting her feelings, you'll probably end up married to her because you won't ever have the balls to break it off.
Never stay with someone you don't love anymore. Never leave someone you're still in love with.
3. Girls, don't ever be The Other Woman. I've been there - a few times in fact. And sure, it's great at the beginnig. He goes on and on about how you have all the great qualities his girlfriend lacks, you're so beautiful, he cares so much about you...newsflash: if he cared THAT much about you, he would dump her. And the bottom line is that you're being used, and yes, he may really like you, but obviously not enough to dump his girlfriend. Why be with someone like that? And to top it off he's cheating on her (see rule #1). He may seem great, but please don't overlook that major flaw. If he's cheating on her, who's to say he wouldn't cheat on you if the two of you were dating?
But the most important part of any relationship? COMMUNICATION. Talk to each other. Always. Don't whine to your friends, don't complain on a blog, just talk. It might be scary and it might be frightening, but it's essential. So many things in this world would be easier if people just decided to open their mouths and say a few words.
