Pipit you cannot be perfect in an imperfect world. Have you ever tried to be nice to a jerk? You will be jerked around like turkey. Each situation can only be assesed through our experiences i.e. unique. Instead of putting down particular rules and regulations you should be encouraging certain thinking modes which will apply to multiple instances. Leave particular solutions to really bad cases in which case the couple should seek professional help.

Example: You cannot communicate to an african american guy the same way you would communicate to a kenyan man and the same way you would communicate to a white person. African Americans for example if you are extremely nice and sensitive, that could work to your disadvantage. You have to be pushy and a little mean with them for the relationship to work. With a white guy you also have to be domineering but in a very subtle way otherwise they will run over you like a truck.

Any reasonable person realises that the world does not revolve around them only and has to consider other people’s feelings and interests without having to compromise ones own interests. Thus the need for communication for all those who seem to be down playing the importance of this thread.

Thanks Pipitp..Mashada Brothers and sisters could always use some self-help advice.

Pipitp, you seem to have the symptoms of a 1st year psychology major.
But, good lookin' out.

@ african pride, i know that deep in your heart you know that all points are valid so no need to argue with you .. unless you're this in the relationship world.

@ nyawera_1 ya right!

Pipit just don't make a mistake of telling me who your boyfriend is because the minute you do he will be gone! :)

LOL pipit. I never encourage girls to introduce their boyfriends to me anyways. It can be disastrous.
