Growing up in a household where two parents have so many problems with each other can make a child swear from the young age of six that he will never have a relationship like that.
At a young age, love is incredibly hard to understand, and there's no manual for it. You feel so many emotions, and if you have no one to talk about them, how can you possibly sort them out?
Growing up in an intense conversative christian household, I was constantly condemned for having my feelings towards women, so I couldn't talk about them with anyone, and I ended up becoming obsessed with a girl at my high school, and the rollercoaster of emotions we went through almost lead me to suicidal depression. I'll post a blog about it.
Having been shaken severely afterwards, at first I swore off women completely, but I realised we only get one life, and love is the thing I want most.
How I became to be at my level of knowledge is part interest and part chance.
The part-interest: I've spent hundreds of hours researching how relationships work for my own personal benefit and formulated theories that have proven to work perfectly in my own life.
The part-chance: My late friend Sean Tarpley and I were hanging out with a group of dudes and we were talking about girls, he decided that I should be the one to advise everyone for reasons I couldn't see at the time, but I gave great advice and people kept coming.
I've had a very sucessful relationship for five years, 3 of which have been long distance. Sure, we've had rough patches, but we've been together for what I'd consider to be a long time and I'm very happy.
I lived in an envoirnment of 500 students, and we were all in the middle of nowhere. We either had relationships with people there or relationships with people who were nowhere near us. I can't say that I've been able to help everyone perfectly, but those who have come to me have gotten the tools to improve their relationship.
Give my methods a try. They are very general and I include many things from renowned researchers that have touched the hearts of many people.
I wish everyone luck with finding their perfect someone.
