Love and Lie,s

As some of you know I took a giant step and began a relationship with a lady. Well all was well until I noticed little lie,s began to become more and more ! into play, I made the lady aware of this ! everything settled down then. but after a while they started again ! Having had a relationship years ago that turned into a nightmare due to Lie,s and cheating, this lady was the main cause of me not entering into a relationship, To protect my mental health, and gave me trust issue,s also ! So to cut a long story short I have ended the relationship before it develops into a nightmare. Trust is vital to me. Ray

Ray, I didn't know you had started a relationship. But I fully agree with

you in that once the lies start, trust goes out the window. There cannot

be a relationship if there is no trust. You are a wise man and I commend

you for taking that step. Better now in breaking it off than down the road.

You deserve only the best. :) xx

Your a good man. I have read some of your posts and I can see you just want to help people. You deserve better. I can say from experience if a relationship starts out that way it's not going to get any better. When they start off with a lie it doesn't getter better!

Hi gerrerd.

That is too bad. Don’t let it discourage you from meeting someone good and honest.

I think it was wise of you to exit the relationship. I try to remember this:

Fool me once, shame on you

Fool me twice, shame on me.

Take care.

It's good you stayed tuned into the issue. Better to move on than continue with doubts.

You so right, trust is what everyone needs❤️

Hi Ray Sorry to hear things didn't work out but a relationship is so life changing that it has to be right. It was the only thing you could do but non the less hard. Well like I am sure many others on here as I am are thinking of you Ray so give yourself lots of care and hang in there. Very best wishes and positive thoughts to you

Yes I interview now .. meaning no rush ing in.. as give people enough time , they will tell you who they are. I have side stepped 2 people in the last two weeks. Easier to let go when not emotionally invested.
