Nobody likes to be manipulated or controlled in ways that don’t align with their core values and principles. It can be abusive for one. The goal is to accept each other right? Treat others as equals? Not control, try to change others to fit with our own expectations? Relationships and love are about the freedom and independence of individuality – being ourselves. Acceptance. If we’re not actively being ourselves as humans how can we find happiness and love with another? Feel wanted, needed and accepted (loved) for who we are?
Don’t seek to control, manipulate or change anything or anyone. Focus on being yourself, that’s all.
