10 Red Flags in Dating RelationshipsWritten by Terri Arnold, MS (Spicy Grandma)
10 RED FLAGS IN DATING RELATIONSHIPSWhen starting a new relationship, many women (and men as well) tend to overlook some behaviors in their new partner that do not bode well for future. Then, down road, comes exclamation ‘If I had only known...’. As a Psychotherapist who has worked with mostly women and a few men in field of Domestic Violence, during counseling sessions we can always trace back unpleasant and also dangerous character traits to very start of relationship. Here are some ‘Red Flags’ to watch out for in a new partner. 1)He makes decisions about where to go with little or no input from you. 2)He belittles your opinion when two of you are alone and may call you names. 3)He makes disparaging remarks about you in front of others and may talk about you as if you were not there. 4)He may be rough during love-making and make you engage in acts you do not like. 5)He does not want to spend time with your friends or family and insists you socialize with his people. 6)He will not acknowledge your areas of expertise and may put down what you do in workplace - ignore any of your accomplishments.

After much soul searching heres what i concluded.....Read, Remember and Repeat is not learning although that is precisely how most sysytems of education measure what their students have learned. I can remember my days in High School when i needed to pass a test, all i had to do was read, remember and repeat everthing i learned and it worked for me but after test i forgot everything i learned. So is it possible for an individual to pass a course of instruction with high marks and remain ineffective? is it possible that this person never actually learned anything, but merely gathered information and remember it well enough to repeat it back? My answer is YES.There are two sorts of people in world, who with equal degrees of health and wealth become one happy and other miserable. This arises very much from different views in which they consider things, persons and events and effect of these views upon their minds. Learning should make you a more effective individual it improves quality of your life. Learning is when you consciously entertain an idea (By now you should already know that money is just an idea) , get emotionally involved with that idea , act on idea and improve end result. The feedback is solid gold.
