Bad will never attract good and vice versa. You will attract the same “vibe” (positive or negative) you emit to the rest of the world.

I’m sure if you’ve been following this blog since the beginning, we have told you something about emotional health. It IS important in a relationship.

An individual should prepare herself or himself emotionally, making it sound and stable since if her or his views and preference will reflect it. The decisions will be affected. Level of happiness will be affected (if he or she can ever be happy at all).

If one is emotionally unsound, there is the tendency to cling to the wrong rope, view their partner as a “saviour”, or even be blinded with, er, love. Things like these shouldn’t be taken lightly.

“An emotionally unhealthy person will be attracted to another emotionally unhealthy person, too.”

If that happens, what do you think will be the outcome of their relationship? (My heart just got heavier. Ugh.)

Think about it.

Bad Will Never Attract Good

We all have our ideals when it comes to choosing a partner. We come up with a list either by superficial standards or by principles. I guess it will be tested once we face that moment whether we are going to choose the person who matches all but one trait, physical or personality, which we think weighs a lot. We then face a dilemma that basically asks, will you settle for anything or anyone less than your ideal?

A friend of mine is going through such a dilemma right now. She has found a guy who treats her right and is offering the kind of relationship she has always wanted — yes, there’s a HUGE “but” in that statement.

The guy is a couple of inches shorter than she is.

Whoops! Before anyone goes judgmental on my friend over here, consider the situation, first.

Romantically, I’d say I agree with most people that it’s a bit unfair to take that against the guy. He is, after all, a good guy and I know he will love and treat my friend well. However, ideally, it would look a lot less awkward for my friend who’s gorgeously tall and pretty to be with a guy who looks and is shorter by comparison.

She’s not totally against the idea of getting involved with him since his good qualities seem to overshadow this physical, er, shortcoming (again! me and my puns! sorry.. gah.). She’s just in a bind cuz I know what kind of thoughts are rushing through her mind as she tries to make the decision (it’s a “been there, done that” kind of thing, well, sort of..).

Anyway, I left her with these thoughts, though. Mine. Heh.

“I don’t want to see you get cornered into going into a relationship with someone who’s not truly deserving of you but if he makes you happy and I mean TRULY happy, as in HAPPY, HAPPY.. then he has my vote.”

I always believe in never settling for anything less — well, at least, eversince my sister told me that piece of wisdom, that is. Heehee.

I know it really wouldn’t matter if I say the right things (or the wrong ones for that matter), she’s the one who has to make the decision. But, humour me on this, if she was your friend, what kind of advice would you give her?

For now, I’m keeping my distance. I will not meddle in her affairs. No one should. But I will be here to support whatever decision she makes!
