Recommit and Reconnect to Love – Day 11
Recommit and Reconnect Day 11
How can you expect to have successful relationship with someone when you don’t have a successful relationship with yourself?
Do you expect your partner to do whatever they can to make you happy? Depending upon your partner to define your happiness places a huge expectation on them. Well today is the day to STOP.
For today’s challenge, you will take more responsibility for your own personal needs and happiness. Do not always make it your partner’s job to fulfill your needs because this is a big expectation to place on anyone. If you are totally dependent on them for your happiness, when they do something that upsets you or makes you unhappy, you could lash out against them because you feel threatened and insecure by the unhappiness that is now your reality.
They could even resent you for holding them responsible for your happiness and begin to view you as a burden. Stop blaming your partner for your unhappiness when you can do things to make yourself happy. You are really responsible for making yourself happy. No one else should have that responsibility for your life. If you are happy with your life and with yourself, your romantic and other relationships will have a lot more stability.
