I once bought a pair or cheap imitation Oakley sunglasses from a street vendor in NYC. I knew they weren't real, but they looked like the real thing for a whole lot less money. So I bought them. Annd they lasted a matter of days. A cheap knockoff isn't ever going to be the same quality as the real deal.
You deserve the real deal in your relationships, but cheap imitations can look really convincing and you may find yourself settling for a knockoff-maybe without even realizing it.
Today I talk about the REAL qualities of a healthy relationship versus the cheap imitations.
1. Love vs. Lust.
2. Protection/comfort/loyalty vs. Control.
3. BEING in a real relationship vs. SAYING you are in a relationship.
4. Service vs. Servitude.
5. True Self Worth vs. Feeling Worth Because You Are With Someone
6. Support vs. Strings Attached
7. Trust vs. Tell You What You Want to Hear
8. Respect vs. Fear Based Compliance
Love should never feel like a trap or a transaction.
You deserve better!
