  • How To Be A Better Girlfriend

    I am so guilty of "google"-ing "how to be a better girlfriend."

    Does that mean I am a terrible on on the verge of trying to fix my imperfections? No.

    It's simply that I want to know more about how I can bond with my guy in a way that meets both of our needs. We are both emotionally needy people. We crave attention. I'm upset when I'm not the one getting all of it and vice versa. We practically fight over who needs/wants the most attention. I'm bipolar... my needs are great. I'm always moody. Lately, my mood swings have been comparable to changing stations on the radio. I don't take meds for it so I deal with it on my own.

    I just need some advice... from anyone.

    I think the first step is taking the time to be more understanding towards each other. It's a lot harder than it seems because it often means putting the other person ahead of yourself.

    I too am an attention craver and it's one of the best things i feel that helps the relationship.

    Hang in there!

    @mashimaroboi@xanga - Yeah I definitely agree with your 1st paragraph. A relationship is like a magnet. A bond between 2 people. Both of those people trying to make it all about them is like trying to push opposite ends of that magnet together and wondering why it won't stick since it's a magnet. (If that makes any sense.)


    And if you want help, turn to God. Pray for wisdom, and then read the Bible. What I like to do is pray, and then go to the concordance in the back of my Bible to find verses that apply to my situation. (Then I write them in gel pens on notebook paper and put them in the front of my school binder.) But the #1 thing to do is turn to God. He's always there for you. (Hebrews 13:5)


    I'm praying for you. God bless.
