Have you ever made a huge mistake with a man that
you wanted SO much to erase? If so, you are not
alone.
“Don’t Say ‘I Love You’ First…and How To Recover If You Did”
Yes, Even Your Love Life Requires Discipline!
There is one way to get rid of a guy fast – even a great guy -
when you least want to get rid of him. So let’s make sure this
does not happen to us.
Don’t be the first one to say “I love you.”
This is a controversial topic, and I certainly understand both
sides of the coin. Often people like to argue about things in
theory which are completely different in real life, and this
topic can be one of them. No one likes the idea of telling a
woman that she should, in principle, not be the one to say “I
love you” first in a relationship with a man.
However, for many very good reasons, this guideline has stood
the test of time – for most situations.
Of course I don’t want you to feel that you have to hold your
feelings in or be afraid of expressing them.
However – we are trying to put the odds in our favor, and
protect ourselves from the kind of good impulses that
unfortunately can cause a man to withdraw from us.
Yes, sometimes we do have to exercise discipline and restraint
in life to get what we want. This is true when it comes to
everything from getting good grades in school to having a fit
body to driving a car. We have to follow guidelines and we
can’t always do what we feel like doing, can we?
You can recover from this “mistake,” and I will tell you
exactly how to do that – but let’s try not to make that
mistake in the first place.
Why He Needs to Say “I Love You” First
Here is what NOT to do if you want to keep the interest of a
man who has not yet made a commitment to you: in general,
the woman should not be the first one to say “I love you”!
You may be feeling this love for him; your love may be true;
and it may also be true that he loves you, too. But until HE
says these words to you, he is not ready for this huge step
forward in your relationship.
As we all know, saying “I love you” is a major milestone in
any romantic relationship. To a woman, it is a time for
rejoicing. However, if a man is not ready for this, all he
will be feeling is pressure when he hears you say those words,
EVEN IF HE IS FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU.
Unfortunately, even if he IS in that delicious “falling in
love” process, your saying “I love you” first can be like a
huge “wake up call” for him. It may cause him to suddenly
realize that things are getting VERY serious.
