In response to:
Many people have been, lied to, cheated on, abused, and so on.. Some multiple times..
So my question is when you start a new relationship are you just waiting for it to happen? are you looking for the slightest sign that somethings not right
Or are you honestly able to enter a new relationship completely relaxed with an open mind?

Well, could not help to jump in ... Great topic, a crucial one ...
There is a term "Emotional Intelligence" The case is, according on the latest research We are..."Homo sapiens" have two brains, two minds...two different kind of intelligence: rational and emotional. Therefore, it was proven that how we do in our life, decision making abilities and emotional and pyisical survival is determined by both – it is not just IQ.
So to get closer to the topic - Intellect cannot work at its best without emotional intelligence.
The emotional brain is as involved in reasoning as is the thinking brain.
New relationships will always have connection with an old memories of painful breakups. We cannot change it...this is how our brain has been evolved...but beeing an Emotionaly intelligent we can help our new relationships to thrive without hurting, anger, doubts and distrust
Besides I would like to share with you a great qoute
