I learned to be cautious, cautious, cautious and not so quick to believe what people say. I now watch what they do to see if it matches what they say.

I have learned to respond in an 'Assertive' way when reacting to 'Aggressive' or 'Passive' behaviour.

I have learned and will only 'Trust' to let those who can reciprocate the same 'Assertiveness' into my life or I keep a safe distance if they haven't evolved to this level yet wink

Lets do the math...

Aggressive + Passive = Bullying

Aggressive + Aggressive = War

Passive + Passive = No Passion

Assertive + Assertive = Calm, Resolve, Love, Joy, Peace, Happiness... Shall I go on?? grin

It's amazing how many passive, aggressive or passive/aggressive people (not just men) are out there that haven't obviously learned how to be Calm & Assertive yet!! dunno

Having said that, it did take me 35 yrs of experience to learn it too so I guess if parents don't teach it to their kids via role modelling this stuff (as I have with my own kids) then we got to learn the hard way as I did blues

JMO of course wink

Gr8 question btw geo!! thumbs up

I learned that no matter how much I may be able to work through with the ability to accept people as they are, it would really be better to have a personal a relationship, with a person of similar views and values.

I will never allow compromise of myself so much ever again. With a person of similar values, it won't ever have to happen on either side, not even by accident.thumbs up

Yes softness and consideration can be interpreted as a sign of weakness by some people.

I have finally learned to have a voice, be more assertive and not try to make the other person happy at the cost of my own independence, individual needs, and happiness. teddybear

Think it might have taken me too long to work that out. sigh

Every relationship is a learning experience, like doing things all over again, lots of lessons learned, I did learn to disregard the obvious and the repetitive and keep only the new complaints. After many break up I'm at a point of perfection, this is what we Italians do, we analyse, fix or repeat then adjust and learn. The woman is the most presious and important creature on the planet !

A lot. Mainly not get into a serious one ever again. Patience, perception, not be taken for granted and stop as soon as I see certain signs.
