Relationship Advice – Masking True Love
by Johnnie S Laney
We all want true love. We get into a relationship or marriage thinking we’ve found it and its great for a while but then it seems like it fades some or begins to go away entirely.
How do we keep true love thriving in our relationship over the long haul? How do we stop from losing that great feeling and maybe losing our mate?
The answers to this question are multiple. There are many issues you need to pay attention to in order to keep your relationship strong and keep the feeling of true love.
For now we will look at one aspect of keeping the true love you find. And that is to learn to take off your mask with your partner. True love requires us to be authentic and genuine in the relationship.
We all wear masks. For example, some of us are good girls. We try not to argue, try not to make waves, try to be pleasing and helpful. Others of us wear independent masks. We try to appear like we’ve got it together, we’ve got it handled, we don’t need help. There is nothing wrong with these masks.
Such masks can get in the way in our love life. If you are a good girl all the time and don’t take off that mask, you can get taken for granted and give all the time while receiving nothing. If you don’t stand up for yourself you could get minimized.
Just so, if you wear the strong independent I don’t need anybody mask, you will need to take that off at times. You will need to be vulnerable and admit that you dont always have it together. You have to let your mate in.
We need to learn to take off our masks with our partners. True love cannot grow in a relationship that is not genuine and based on the truth. Wearing a mask all the time, trying to put on your best persona, will kill off true love because you have to be real and honest to keep love going strong.
