Relationships romantic or otherwise are basically just give and take. No one person should do all the giving or taking. There should be mutual respect. Be a good listener and let the other person know that you care. You should expect the same treatment in return. Please do not settle for less just to have a boyfriend.

Also, while it should work like that, it doesn't. I have friends and get along (well enough) with my family. Yet, someone who really knows me would say I don't have what it takes to be in a relationship.
I don't think anyone should ever expect anything from a relationship. They should just be thankful if they're not being abused and realize that they are beyond the luckiest person in the world if they're with someone that gives even a single f— about them or their feelings.
If we don't settle at some point, we all may just be alone in the end. I don't want to come home to an empty house every night when I'm in my 40's and beyond (not even in my 30's honestly), but that's what it's going to be unless I take what I can get. Unfortunately, I can't get anything.
