Dating A Friend- cons

April 26, 2024February 23, 2024 by Joy Ekpouko

For some folks out there, getting emotionally entangled with a friend might not quite seem to be a great adventure to embark upon, though the relationship is destined to be built on trust placing one in a tricky situation as to whether to take on the adventure of dating a friend or not.

As funny as it might seem to be, picking up the courage to ask your best friend to date you could be one of the most challenging requests you’ve ever asked for from such a friend of yours. It is deemed challenging because you would be discussing something serious with someone you once cruised alongside in time past.

THE DOWNSIDE OF DATING A FRIEND

The awkwardness of dating a friend is a total turn-off and red flag on its own as every activity engaged in the relationship tends to be a casual act, just exactly the same way they can’t fathom engaging in any form of romance or sexual intercourse.

In so much as you’re craving feelings to be with your friend in a relationship, and you’re striving so hard to make your wish happen to make your fantasy become a reality, yet even at that there are still some factors to be considered as going into such an affair with your friend just might not be quite an easy ride for you.

Certainly, there are bound to be some highs and lows present in the relationship, nevertheless, this article would be laying more emphasis on the negatives side of such a relationship like this as this article has been well computed with enough resourceful information. Below are some things to explain should you decide to embark on such an adventure as this.

1. FAMILIARITY FLAW’S
Literally, you already know everything about him on one hand, while on the other hand he already knows everything about you in like manner. And with this, irresponsible of how hard you strive to portray yourself as the perfect one and an ideal partner, such efforts of yours would surely be washed down the drainage as your personality is known already by him or her.

Though you might still strive to convince him that you’re a changed person now and also in a changed situation as well judging by the fact that your affairs with him ain’t that of a friendship but rather that of a relationship, of which still with that might not work out exactly the same way you planned or imagined it. The reason why it is not advisable to date a friend is when there are thousands of options to be explored.

2. FEELING MIGHT NOT BE MUTUAL
The feeling you are giving out and exhibiting might not be reciprocated to you exactly as you might have imagined it, and when a case scenario like this presents itself, it signifies you might have misinterpreted the feeling of CA and affection being shown towards you as love.
When the red flag is mentioned above, certainly the feeling ain’t mutual and it is best recommended to bring such affairs to a halt from that moment henceforth, as you might end up doing yourself more harm than good in the long run.

3. INSECURITIES AND TRUST ISSUES
Having been together with each other for most of the times when you were still friends, one way or the other you might have known one or two things about one another which could be good or bad, position or negatives.

You might know one or two things about the past relationships with one another, and such knowledge as that might come back to haunt you as you might start developing feelings of Insecurity. The reason is if you aren’t mature enough you should never for once consider dating your friend.

4. ISSUES MIGHT BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED
Like someone you’ve literally been cool with based on the number of times and moments you both have shared together, certainly once you decide to advance from friendship to Relationship, you both still tend to remain comfortable with one another thereby making issues for granted.

While in friendship with one another, you both might not be heeding to corrections or giving full obedience to one another directives, now that you both have advanced from being Friends to being in a relationship, expect things to get a little bit worse as it is expected of such trends of taking things for granted to continue adding up to your frustrations in the process

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, we aren’t ultimately deciding to carry on a date with your friend isn’t a good idea at all, we are only trying to expose you to the cons of carrying on such an adventure as that so that it could be up to you to dictate and decide if it is really worth the risk. being in a relationship with your best friend also has its own good side as there are a few things to benefit from just by doing so. Such things include

~ You tend to blend well with one another having known each other for so long a time

~ You would always live to admire one another personalities just exactly the same way.~ You would always be cool with one another families and close relations having spent time with them while being friends.

~ The relationship is destined to experience rapid growth as both of you don’t necessarily need to go through the introductory phase.

Relationships generally are meant to be built around Love, Care, and Affection while also spicing it up with added traits such as trust and a good communication scheme.

An abusive relationship as we all know is a companionship known for all forms of physical confrontations in every facet of live ranging from the physical, emotional all the way to all things sexual assaults usually coming from the angle of the male figure directed towards the female counterparts who happens to be his girlfriend

SIGNS OF AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP
Guys are known to be the alpha figure in a relationship normally, who are expected to give directives on how the affairs of the relationship should be run. But unfortunately for ladies who actually are the prey In this case scenario, they are forced to go through hell at the hands of guys.

Moreover, in order to dodge such bullets of being in an Abusive Relationship, there are some red flags present in the relationship that you shouldn’t joke with as they might actually be a clear indication that the union you actually find yourself in might be an Abusive Relationship. Below are a few signs of an Abusive Relationship.

1. YELLING AND SCREAMING
Literally, there’s nothing intimidating as your partner yelling and screaming orders at you in the name of giving directives or proscribing corrections. There’s no doubting the fact that once in a relationship, arguments are bound to erupt seldomly, but once it becomes part of his daily routine, it should be a worrying sign for you.

Pick up the courage to talk to him about his irritating actions which might be damaging to your mental health and if chose not to give heed to every plea of yours then it’s high time you start considering leaving the relationship for Good as being in a union with a dictator is the last thing one can ever wish for.

Being dragged into every fault in the union can actually affect the confidence and self-esteem of a lady acting as a detriment to their mental health as abuse doesn’t necessarily need to come in its physical form but rather emotionally and mentally.

3. TOTAL DOMINANCE AND CONTROL
If your partner which is the person you actually call your boyfriend is actually acting like a dictator in the relationship, this might just be a clear indication you might be heading towards yet another Abusive relationship.

Talking about Your partner being a dictator, means him already making it part of his daily routine of feasting on your social media pages and handles, requesting to know more about your whereabouts even when it seems to inconvenience you taking away your liberty at will.

4. THREATENING YOU AT WILL
When your boyfriend is actually in the business of threatening you with your mistakes of the past mistakes so as to blackmail you doing so, that is another red flag you shouldn’t underestimate as it might come back to haunt you in the long run.

5. EMOTIONS JOKES AND JESTING
Emotional jokes and jesting just as the heading implies, though at first shouldn’t be considered serious first, but if it persists they should. The whole world might decide to make fun and mockery of you but it shouldn’t be your boyfriend who is meant to be your supporting pillar.

6. MANIPULATIVE AND CUNNING
If the one you call the love of your life is always tricking you into acting to his own terms and benefits, then in the long run such a relationship of yours is bound to be toxic and abusive.

Actions like threatening to end their lives or inflict self-damage on themselves should they decide to leave the relationship is one of the most commonly used manipulative acts as it is actually done with the intention of stopping you from quitting the relationship.

7. EMOTIONAL PUNISHMENT
Silent treatment now has become the other of the day as it is the most implemented form of punishment In a relationship. Here the abuser acts as if the abused doesn’t exist as she is completely shut out and isolated in that very relationship.

CONCLUSION
In conclusion, just exactly the same where there are solutions readily made available for every problem, there are also some few tips which could be implemented to aid in tackling issues such as this. Here are a few of the tips you might want to consider

. Share your plights with your families, friends, and close relatives as these are the set of people you’re certain would surely have your back giving you support at the most critical time of you wanting it.

April 23, 2024February 23, 2024 by Joy Ekpouko

How to make your boyfriend jealous

You love him so much even more than you can express sometimes but most times, he acts as if he doesn’t know how much you love him and this most times makes you think if he even loves you at all, have you ever thought about how to make your boyfriend jealous before?

Have you ever doubted if he even loves you in return? Then don’t worry, I will tell you just a few things you should do and trust me, if he loves you, you will know from his actions.

READ ALSO: Signs he is cheating on you

During this process I want to show you how to make your boyfriend jealous, don’t ever judge him on anything or the action he takes.
Perhaps remember that you are doing it to get to him.

Loving someone without being loved in return or without even knowing if he loves you too can be so frustrating, perhaps, it hurts a lot, loving someone shouldn’t bring hurt but instead happiness and joy.

But don’t worry, I’ve got this, just pick any of these steps if not all, and it will help you to know if your love is one-sided or both sides.

1 Dress decent but outstanding when going out with friends: Dress decently in the sense that you don’t have to expose your nakedness in public. For him to be in that outing along with you, means guys will come including his friends.

Try and get acquainted with some guys if not one, feel free with them, chat with them and loud. Don’t ever try showing him that you are acting or that you are doing that to get his attention or else you won’t win.

In the discussion, ensure that it is a topic that you know things about because this will help you to be yourself when chatting about it.

2 Smile a lot: when having the discussion, ensure that it is not a boring conversation because you need something that will help you smile as much as you can.

When smiling be giving him a little 2-second look and then look off. This look is to observe his face.
When you look at him, continue with your smiling face, if he smiles at you, it means he is admiring you from away from the way you smile, dress, etc.

But if he doesn’t smile or fake the smile, just know that he is jealous of seeing you smiling with another guy or other guys. In this stage, trade with caution because is not all men that can control their jealousy.

3 Compose yourself: No matter what occurs there, don’t lose guard, be in your right state of mind and ensure that you don’t act before thinking.

If couples were among the people you went to meet or went out with, admire them and tell them how perfect they look with each other and how happy you are for them.

Ensure that during this conversation, he is closer if not with you. This will make him think twice and one of the things he will think about is ” How perfect you two will be, how lucky he is to have you”.

That will be his thought but since is just a thought, you will need to observe him immediately after the gesture, if he looks a little lost in thought or just smiles, then that’s your man.

4 Be attached to something: If you are at home, instead of being bored or nagging him, be attached to something, it might be your phone, a book, or a movie.

Watch or read something that will be making you laugh, laugh with yourself, and be smiling, don’t overdo it, but in the process, enjoy yourself and be free.
Make sure that your smile is his weak point.

5 Wear to catch: Now you are at home, you don’t need to dress too decent, because this time, you want to catch. Make sure that whatever you wear is nice accompanied by a nice fragrance.

Yeah, if he doesn’t turn immediately to look in your direction, with the fragrance, he will look and that’s your chance to perform any magic you want.

Note: if you can’t even make your man want you, there is no how you can make him jealous and even want you more.

A man can only be jealous of you with someone else only if he is in love with you.
So when trying and looking for how to make your boyfriend jealous, ensure that you are also working on yourself, both in and outer parts.

6 Undress in front of him: now this is it, at this stage, is when he will confess to you how he felt seeing you smiling and playing with other guys instead of him.
As he is confessing, go into your nightwear and walk toward him, and now is your chance too to ask him this question.

“WERE YOU JEALOUS” note, he may be trying to be a man but you already know the answer so move to the next question, “DO YOU TRULY LOVE ME” that’s it, that the moment you were even looking for.
At this stage, he won’t be able to pretend again.

There are still other ways how to make your boyfriend jealous but you got to learn how to use what you have and get what you want.

Also, don’t just allow making your boyfriend jealous to be your only target, please. in the process of trying to get your boyfriend and affection or in the process of trying to push your boyfriend to the level that he can’t hide his feelings from you anymore, ensure that you also look after yourself.

Ensure that your heart is safe and sound while doing this because if at the end of it, the outcome shows that your boyfriend does not value you or the relationship the same way you do, you might end up hurting yourself. so during this quest, make sure that you prepare your shield for the protection of your heart.
