The one trait that no GREAT RELATIONSHIP CAN DO WITHOUT!!!

[Freeman]

Hey whats up guys its yer boy freeman back on here, havent been on for awhile-been busy dating. This morning I have some free time so I thought to post some of my thoughts on here.

Today I want to talk about the one trait that no great relationship can do without-be it with your girl, your supposed friends,family, etc. Personally, I think its so big that if Jessica Alba somehow came into my life and wanted me to be her man I would leave her as$ alone in a heartbeat if she wasnt able to do this! So let me chase the cut and spit it out. The one trait that is a "must have" no matter what is...

HONESTY!!!

I think that this trait alone defines your interpersonal relationships. Looking back at my past dating experiences, I could honestly say that probably the biggest reason why I can't be cool with any of them is because they werent honest with me-they would tell me one thing and end up doing another thing. Look at your own lives and tell me if you dont agree-Everything else comes from having an honest relationship with yourself and others.

Well, since you already mentioned Honesty, (great thread topic, btw) I am going to say Communication. For me Communication encompasses Honesty, (usually, but you can easily communicate untruths as well) and also leads to the formation of and keeping Trust.

Honesty must be within reason. For example, if you feel insecure or jealous, don't mention that. Don't tell her that you've been studying the Mystery Method or whatever on the internet and are using it on her. Use discretion.

This one hits home with me. Sometimes I feel like I can’t trust my g/f. I’ve caught her lying to me about things she did when we first started going out. And she tired to keep it from me too, and when I caught her she tried to cover it up.

Maybe it was early in our relationship but we did have the girlfriend boyfriend talk. What she did was nothing serious that I think warrants a break up, but sometimes I find it hard to believe what she says. On the other hand I can’t play all innocent either I was doing worse things like seeing other girls behind her back but as far as she knows I was loyal to her, haha

It really depends on what YOU should be honest about.

Of course, it defies logical expectations to think you can have an 100% honest partner.

Your relationship can still operate healthily with some white lies here and there.
