15 Signs You’re An Option, NOT A Priority

No one wants to find that they are not a priority in their romantic relationships. It is a hard realization to come to, and many people tend to ignore the signs that they are not a priority by rationalizing them away. Indeed, some of these signs can be rationalized, but when a significant other is presenting with more than a few, it may be time to reassess the relationship. Here are fifteen signs that you’re an option in a relationship, not a priority:

1. The other person never wants to make plans in advance.

2. You make all the concessions in the relationship– if it can be called a relationship.

3. It feels like you’re always waiting on them, but they never wait on you– if you ask them to wait, they bail.

4. They are seeing other people and make it known that you are not the only one– or even the most important one.

5. All of your interaction happens behind closed doors: there are never date nights or outings.

6. When you get fed up, they reel you back in with sweet words and everything you want to hear, but then quickly return to old behaviors.

7. Your calls, texts, emails, Facebook messages, SnapChats, and so on all go unanswered. In this day and age, almost everyone is constantly attached to their phone– you know they saw it and chose not to respond.

You Can Never Win An Argument With A Negative Person

Everyone has moments of negativity. What is important is choosing how to get through those moments. If you are dealing with a negative person, it takes a strong person to showthem how to be positive. Although that’s not always possible. ~ Amy King 

Negative people only read the head lines and think at surface level. They allow their emotions to guide them convincing themselves of reality. 

Never argue with an idiot because they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

You can never win an argument with a negative person. They only hear what suits them and listen only to respond.

A Businessman And A Cheque Story

The business executive was deep in debt and could see no way out. Creditors were closing in on him. Suppliers were demanding payment. He sat on the park bench, head in hands, wondering if anything could save his company from bankruptcy.

Suddenly an old man appeared before him. “I can see that something is troubling you,” he said. After listening to the executive’s woes, the old man said, “I believe I can help you.”

He asked the man his name, wrote out a check, and pushed it into his hand saying, “Take this money. Meet me here exactly one year from today, and you can pay me back at that time.”

Then he turned and disappeared as quickly as he had come. The business executive saw in his hand a check for $500,000, signed by John D. Rockefeller, then one of the richest men in the world!

“I can erase my money worries in an instant!” he realized. But instead, the executive decided to put the uncashed check in his safe. Just knowing it was there might give him the strength to work out a way to save his business, he thought.

With renewed optimism, he negotiated better deals and extended terms of payment. He closed several big sales. Within a few months, he was out of debt and making money once again.
