Loving someone means recognizing and appreciating them. Only when you acknowledge someone, will they feel valued.
It’s not wrong to acknowledge someone you love. When you acknowledge someone, they feel appreciated by you.
However, sometimes you need to give them a reality check. This can strengthen the relationship and help them see themselves more clearly.
Constantly praising someone can have both positive and negative effects. Overpraising can sometimes make the person conceited.
So, as a woman, you must understand that while praising a man, it’s also important to give them a reality check when needed.
As a writer once said: “Men can be arrogant at times, so you have to guide them constantly.”
Being deeply in love doesn’t mean always agreeing with each other. Sometimes, when you love someone deeply, you should also remind them.
Relationships Need Cooling Down Too
Last year, I met a former classmate from elementary school. We still had a friendly connection just like before.
She shared her love story with me, saying her boyfriend had always been very good to her.
Since they had a great relationship, they were always together. They were in the same department in college and even ended up in the same class in their third year.
They spent their days and sometimes nights together.
Despite the envy they might receive for being inseparable, there was an issue.
Her accommodating nature made her boyfriend believe he was always right. Even when he was wrong, she wouldn’t speak up to avoid upsetting him.
But one day, she did speak up, and her boyfriend got upset.
This happened while he was playing basketball passionately and made an unreasonable request, embarrassing him and giving him a reality check.
Initially, her boyfriend was angry but their relationship improved after that.
He didn’t get angry but said: “Sometimes relationships need to cool down. We were too close, I needed to show my frustration.”
Love isn’t always smooth sailing; it can lead to both happiness and unhappiness.
“Just as a full cup spills, and a full moon wanes.”
Everything reaches a point where change is inevitable. So, in a relationship, it’s important to maintain balance.
Sometimes, it’s necessary to cool down the intense emotions. If the relationship is too intense, it’s crucial to cool things down.
Love is like a fire; burning too brightly isn’t always good as it can burn out quickly.
Women can sometimes give men a sense of failure, a reality check, but it should be done at the right time, not unreasonably.
Helping Men Realize Their Worth
Sometimes, men feel they are always right and capable of doing everything on their own.
Many men share this trait, wanting recognition for their abilities. Continuous praise can lead to arrogance and make them view women as inferior.
When a woman helps a man realize his shortcomings, it shows that she also has strengths.
To make a man feel a sense of failure, sometimes it’s necessary to give them a reality check when they are wrong.
If a woman constantly praises a man without balance, he might start feeling superior, undermining the woman’s worth.
An actress once said: “In love, both partners should be equals.”
If a man always has the upper hand, and a woman is always at a disadvantage, the relationship is imbalanced and unlikely to succeed.
For a woman, giving a man a reality check isn’t just about making him feel inferior; it’s also about nurturing the relationship.
Sometimes, men’s arrogance can lead them to overlook a woman’s feelings, causing resentment over time, leading to conflicts that can harm the relationship.
Loving Someone Means Reminding Them
When a woman loves a man, she should be able to remind him when necessary.
Sometimes, men impulsively pursue something, only to regret it later.
As the saying goes: “A woman’s man reflects the woman.”
Both men and women can influence each other. When a man involves his partner in decision-making or accepts feedback, it benefits the relationship.
Everyone has blind spots. Men, focused on the present, may overlook things behind them, leading to mistakes.
In a relationship, mutual support, guidance, and reminders are essential.
At weddings, people often say: “Please guide me in the future.”
No one is perfect. Having someone remind you before you make a mistake is a blessing.
Often, our efforts go to waste due to a simple mistake.
Compared to men, women tend to be more thoughtful and cautious, noticing things men may miss.
Loving someone means giving them a reality check when necessary. Women should understand the importance of doing so to nurture a healthy relationship.
A healthy relationship is not always smooth; sometimes, a reality check is beneficial.
