This week’s relationship advice ezine talks forgiveness. As you probably already know, the much anticipated movie “New Moon” is coming out in a theatre near you. If you are a fan of The Twilight Series, you know that so much forgiveness is required of the characters for the hurt and pain caused by them, and to them, in their never-ending search for love.
Share with us a time when you were asked to forgive your partner. Tell us how you were able to find a way to forgive them, even though it might have been very difficult for you to do this?

It never ceases to amaze me how people sabotage their relationships. It seems to me that we act before we think and this creates all sorts of troubles in our love life.

Why do you think you criticize your partner for the silliest things, especially when you know they are only trying to help you out?

When you and your partner argue, do you remember to look at your personal contribution to the difficulties you’re having in your relationship? Explain.
It is so easy to point our finger and blame our partner when things do not go smoothly in our relationship. What we must remember is that it takes two people to have an argument. The title of my upcoming weekly ezine: Mirror, Mirror on the Wall reminds us to take a good look at ourselves before we blame our partners for problems in our relationship.
