Managing yourself sane for the word "love" or "relationship" must be so difficult at this age, so here are some bits of advice to help!
1. Expecting to be healed by someone after getting hurt by the previous relationships is wrong. You need to totally heal yourself first before deciding to start the new one.
2. Considering someone as ‘your everything’ and feeling too attached to him/her just because you think that no one’s going to fully accept you the way he/she does—this thought is toxic. It’s just the same as considering that yourself is nothing or worthless.
3. No matter how much you respect someone, nothing’s gonna work if he/she has no respect for him/herself. You should love and appreciate yourself with compassion first, before starting to love the other.
4. Effective communication is the key. Periodt.
5. In a mature relationship, you indeed cannot guarantee everything that’ll come in the future. However, if you can barely guarantee your faith in your partner, then what’s the point? You’re just going to waste your energies.
6. Besides being faithful, doing real actions bravely to hold is also a matter to make the relationship works.
I’ll add some more points if I happened to think there’s more I haven’t written here. Well, you're welcome! 😊
Thank you for the advice.
