Sometimes being in love with someone can blind you to certain aspects about them that, if you weren’t in love with them, you would catch immediately. Love causes you to see the best in someone, even if it hurts you to do that. We often miss signs until its a little bit toooooo late. Nothing is ever just picture perfect but you know you have to keep moving forward.

So imagine you find yourself married to someone after 6 months of being with them, to only find out the entire thing was a lie? They fabricate stories to keep you around them at all times. Stories like, “ I am going to kill myself if you don’t cancel your trip” or “ I am pregnant you better not leave me.” They know that they have total control over you, so you would never leave them. Toxic relationships can lead to you feeling extremely negative about yourself. I’ve talked about this in book 2 and 3 of Thoughts of a Random Guy. Sometimes you don’t know who you are really with until certain situations happen in your life. Some additional tea on this particular situation is that she was having relations with multiple guys after they got married. To find this out, he was completely hurt about it. He thought he found someone amazing for him but come to realized he was living in a hell and she was running his life. Do you think this is love or does it have something to do with being submissive to your partners needs?

We all try to make our significant other happy and we always forget to remember that WE are just as important. Does love blind us to or is it the fear of being alone cause us to end up in these situations?
