a message I think more people need to hear
A lot of people take too much from the person they care about - be it in a romantic relationship, a friendship, a family member, whatever. I’m not telling anyone what to do long term, but I need to put this out there for people who are facing this negative and unhealthy behavior right now.
I don’t believe in the word “if” when it comes to love - if he loves me, he’ll do this, if she’s a good friend, she’ll do that, if my dad wants to make me happy, he’ll do it - because I don’t think it’s right to put conditions on other people and their actions. However, I also don’t think it’s right to let people treat you badly and excuse it - if he really didn’t love me, the hit would have left a mark, if my mom was actually controlling she’d open ALL of my mail, if they really were talking behind my back, they wouldn’t have offered to let me read those texts - because when people treat you badly, there is no justification. Are there ways their behavior can be explained? I’m sure there are - be it that they’re being abused themselves and are transferring the feelings onto you, or that they suffer from mental illness, or they have addiction issues, or what have you, but those factors don’t justify their behavior. They don’t make it okay. They don’t mean that if you really love them, you have to suck it up and deal with what they say or do that makes you feel bad.
Self love is so important. There’s a quote from Lucille Ball that I really like, and I’ll paraphrase it here, “to get anything done in this world, you really have to love yourself. love yourself first, and everything else falls into line”. Love yourself and think of what makes you happy as an individual - does crying yourself to sleep because someone crossed a line in that arguement make you feel good? Does keeping secrets from him or her because you don’t trust them make you feel loved? Does the fact that they were just drinking and didn’t really mean it make you feel like you did before it happened? No, it doesn’t. Sometimes you can excuse behavior until you’re sore in the throat, but does it really make you feel better? Do you want a relationship with someone whose actions you need to justify?
I’m not saying you need to cut these people out of your life or burn bridges or leave them a million nasty voicemails.. .But what I’m asking you is to love yourself. To get up in the morning and not think about what their opinion of you is. To go through your day without worrying about what will happen later - will he call? will she be in a bad mood when I get home? does she REALLY like me? - and concentrate on aspects of yourself no one can take away from you - books, music, films, nature, volunteering, whatever. Something that makes you happy and secure and safe without being contingent on someone else.
At the end of the day, you don’t need to take someone’s bad behavior, no matter what role they have in your life. There are always scenarios where you can’t just up and walk away, but that doesn’t mean you have to feel bad about yourself or let their behavior bring you down. If you need to cry, cry; but focus on making yourself happy and giving yourself hope for better days. If you can get out, please do, and if he or she or they apologize and want to try again, think about it and make your own decision. If you can’t get out right now, just know that you’re worth all the love and respect which is inherent to all people and love yourself the way you deserve.

A letter to you, whoever, wherever you are.
Dear…
Oh, that’s right.
Forgive me. I do not know your name. Or if I do, I don’t know which one it is in the sea of names "sloshing" around in my mind.
As of this writing, I have lived twenty one years without you. Twenty wonderful, excellent, irreplaceable years. Every single one of them had turned out exactly as I had hoped, nearly as I had expected. That’s how I live. I live close to my expectations. I never go too far from the sidewalk.
And there you are, somewhere in existence, about to swoop in on me from oblivion — about to crash into my life and leave me dazed, angry, weeping, vulnerable, and afraid.
I’ll be honest with you. I cannot wait. I cannot wait for you to come and mess up my life.
Because if you are who I think you are, then I can do it. I can surpass anything you will throw at me.
For I will love you.
I may have never crossed paths with you at all yet. I also may have been hanging unwittingly around you all this time. We may be best friends. We may be worst enemies. We may not notice each other in the corridors. I may have just ignored your Facebook friend request, or you mine.
I ask — no, I beg. I beg for a hint, a sign, a clue — perhaps anything. Because I need someone to write beautiful poems about; to annoy everyday through SMS; to keep in mind when composing vague, mushy Tumblr posts; to look small in one of my T-shirts (when we get married, of course); to whom I and my kids can serve a burnt and soggy breakfast-in-bed on Mother’s Day; to fix my tie before a medical conference; to have.
You’re out there, somewhere. I can feel it in my bones. I hope you know how excited I am to meet you. You are the most beautiful thing that will ever happen to me, after all.
I am so excited to love you.
You don’t know how sincerely,

14 tips to QUIT nagging
StOP nagging?
This is something to strive for. But even if we can’t reach that point, most of us could cut back on the nagging. Here are some strategies that have worked for me:
1. It’s annoying to hear a hectoring voice, so suggest tasks without words. When my husband needs a prescription filled, he puts his empty medicine bottle on the bathroom counter. Then I know to get it re-filled.
2. If you need to voice a reminder, limit yourself to one word. Instead of barking out, “Now remember, I’ve told you a dozen times, stop off at the grocery store, we need milk, if you forget, you’re going right back out!” Instead, call out, “Grocery store!” or “Milk!”
3. Don’t insist that a task be done on your schedule. “You’ve got to trim those hedges today!” Says who? Try, “When are you planning to trim the hedges?” If possible, show why something needs to be done by a certain time. “Will you be able to trim the hedges before our party next week?”
4. Remind your partner that it’s better to decline a task than to break a promise. My husband told me that he’d emailed some friends to tell them we had to miss their dinner party to go to a family dinner—but he hadn’t. Then I had to cancel at the last minute. Now I tell him, “You don’t have to do it. But tell me, so I can it.”
5. Have clear assignments. I always call repairmen; he always empties the Diaper Genie.
6. Every once in a while, do your sweetheart’s task, for a treat. This kind of pitching-in wins enormous goodwill.
7. Assign chores based on personal priorities. I hate a messy bedroom more than my husband, but he hates a messy kitchen more than I. So I do more tidying in the bedroom, and he does more in the kitchen.
8. Do it yourself. I used to be annoyed because we never had cash in the house. Then I realized: why did I get to assign that job? Now I do it, and we always have cash, and I’m not annoyed.
9. Settle for a partial victory. Maybe your partner won’t put dishes in the dishwasher, but getting them from the family room into the sink is a big improvement.
10. Re-frame: decide that you don't mind doing a chore — like putting clothes in the hamper or hanging up wet towels. Surprisingly, this is easier than you’d think.
11. Don’t push for the impossible. My husband knows that there’s no way I’ll do anything relating to our car, so he doesn’t even ask.
12. No carping from the sidelines. If your partner got the kids dressed, don’t mock the outfits. If you want something done your way, do it yourself.
13. Think about how money might be able to buy some cheap happiness. Could you find a teenager to mow the lawn? Could you hire a weekly cleaning service? Could you buy prepared foods? Eliminating conflict in a relationship is a high happiness priority, so this is a place to spend money if it can help.
14. Remember that messy areas tend to stay messy, and tidy areas tend to stay tidy. If you want your partner to be neat, be neat yourself!
I admit that these tips are practically useless, however, in a situation where one person is absolutely oblivious for the need for chores to be done. I have it easy, because if anything, my husband is more chore-oriented than I am. If a person simply does not care, it’s practically impossible to get him or her to participate.
