Communication is the Key

Sometimes when we meet someone that sparks our interest, the last thing we want to do is hurt them. We want to keep them around and find out all there is to know about them. Then when an issue pops up and they are able to talk to us about things we push away or halfway answer questions. Well, that is not a good way to keep someone in your life. It may work in some cases, but eventually all will fall apart and old things will come up and the entire situation can blow up and turn into something it was never supposed to be.
This brings up the issue of communication. Many people are single because of their issues with communication, not because they are looking for Mr./Miss Right. In their past relationships things may pop up with their "boo" and they would probably hold it in or bring it up at another time when something else they don't like pops up. Well the best thing to do is nip it in the bud right then and there...unless you're angry. If you are angry your best bet is to clear your mind, cool off, get your thoughts together and at least attempt to see it through the other person's point of view, then talk to them about it. Another thing that some people do is they avoid the issue and just end the relationship. My opinion about this is that if its that easy to drop them then chances are you probably weren't that into them. But if deep down inside you really want to be with them I feel you should try to work things out. Tell them how you feel. Use "I feel..." sentences and don't blame.
I am a twitter addict and I follow this person who calls himself @TonyGaskins. He said,

"If God hasn't sent you a Husband,it's because you aren't as ready as you think you are. When the Bride is ready the Groom will appear"

Well if your problem is communication, how can you expect to meet someone who will actually stay around, or that you will actually stay with until you learn to communicate. I'm just saying this because that's how I see it. If you feel differently then feel free to voice your opinion. Many of the people I have talked to have said many times that if you don't have communication your relationship will not last long. So if you avoid because you are afraid be like Ms. Frizzle on the Magic School Bus, "Take Chances, and Make Mistakes". It didn't make sense when I was younger but it definitely does now. You take a chance on love, you make mistakes with love, and that's when you learn how to handle love.
