A few months ago I was eating lunch with a friend. We were doing the usual thing just talking about problems that are going on with us, relationships, family etc. And she said something to me that changed me whole perspective of my relationships. In the past I was cheated on and I let it bother me for so long. Every relationship after that experience was bad. I made them pay for what he had done to me and I automatically assumed they were going to cheat. I was horrible. At this time my Friend and I were talking I was in the begining of a new relationship and I was doing the same thing. Thinking they were or will. And she said to me you cant let your past keep for from your future. I was like Wow. I never looked at it that way. She also said that if they do cheat you cant stop them. You just have to hope that they dont and move on. That moment was very defining in my relationship and i have finally let my past go and began living for today. 7 months later and still with the guy im glad I listened to My Friend and cleased myself of the past.
