relationships

Ever wonder why relationships stall? Each of us evolves in different ways. What has meaning for one may not have the same meaning for another or the meaning may change as needs change. Alison Armstrong offers an interesting perspective on relationships in HWTM-12. It all boils down to thoughtful communication. Here are some of her profound observations:

• How we define an issue or concern frames the resolution.
• Ask the questions you for which really want the answer. Then, count to 30 so the other person can think about it.
• Men are naturally committed so need to consider their answers.
• Women need to fit with another person based on their current commitments.
• We each need to recognize the limitations and advantages to the different states that others are in as they proceed in life.
• Believe in your significant other.
• Men reveal themselves to people who cannot or will not hurt them.
• Adventurous men marry adventurous women.
• Dating is a sorting problem, not a finding problem.
• Know the feeling you look for in a man and speak your truth about it. Fly the flag of who you are.
• Create space for each other.
• No one is misbehaving.

Be sure to learn about her book, "Keys to the Kingdom", Ms. Armstrong says, "It’s written for all people who are hungry for information and insights into joyful, satisfying relationships between men and women. I encourage the reader to pause, to reflect, to absorb, and to use each of the keys to the kingdom available in this tale."
