Love And No cheating

DearJames,

Will the man I’m in a relationship with be in my future with love and no cheating?

Dear Love And No Cheating,

Do you remember ever pretending to be a princess?

All the dreams you had that one day, you would find your prince charming and live the life of your dreams.

Do you remember?

Now ask yourself if this current man and relationship measures up.

If you’re uncertain of the answer, ask yourself what or who has changed.

Ultimately, you’ll see that somewhere along the way you changed.

You stopped believing in happily ever after’s and days and life circumstances where dreams really do come true.

It’s not that there is anything wrong with the person you are with but rather it’s a question of is this the best incarnation of yourself and are you okay with it for the remainder of your days.

If you come to discern that you’ve settled more than succeeded in this relationship, be willing to face that truth with grace, and honesty, and move on so you move yourself to ever-greater heights of wisdom, possibility, and remembrance of who you are.

The only person that truly prevents you from being you and what you deeply desire is you.

The real question should never be will he be there with love and no cheating.

On the contrary, the real question is do “I” see him being there with love and commitment OR am I believing him to be something I desire when I know in my heart and soul he is not.

It takes great courage to look within and face your own fears and truths, so you avoid placing them upon another only to be shocked and disappointed by “their” failure.

Their failure is ultimately your failure in that instance as you abdicate your inner truth and knowing burdening them with your decision or indecision.

Own this decision with all your being.

In the end, you’ll be thankful you did as the growth and learning will you experience will be by your hand, your power and empowerment, and not that of another.

Of course, if you don’t claim this power, this decision, the life experiences you experience will also be made by your own hand.

I wonder which one feels more beneficial and empowering to you?
