Hey Dot,

I really don't understand what you're asking or what the problem is, but I KNOW you're not a bad person.

Everyone is responsible for their own boundaries so if you're worrying you are hurting someone, you can ask how they feel and try to pay better attention to how they react to things you say and do that you suspect are crossing their boundaries.

Otherwise, if you are annoyed or hurt by what other people say or do, stop and look at it instead of letting it pass and discuss it with the person if it seems to happen in a similar way more than once.

Stick up for yourself, "Hey, that hurts when you call me names!" and if someone else says they are hurt by you, take them seriously and practice being aware of situations that appear to hurt them.

Ya Know Selfy, I dont know who or what relationship you are referring to. But I do know this, if it does not feel right, it probably is not. If you feel you are doing something you should not, then you are probably right. If you are in a friendship and being pushed for more dont let it happen. Like I said before I dont know which relationship or who the relationship or relationships are with, but if you are ever unsure, or you feel something is not right or good for you, CHANCES ARE you are right!

This song reminds me of a best friend. A best friend loves you for who you are in every way. If someone puts you down they stand up for you. If you share opinions and disagree you accept your differences and still love each. If you hurt each other's feelings, you can apologize and move on with confidence that if something goes wrong you two can still and always rely on each other. Sadly, best friends can come and go. Thoughts and feelings can change. People grow and sometimes grow apart. It's much like a marriage. Much like the love "When a man loves a woman" -OCEAN :

WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN LYRICS:

When a man loves a woman
Cant keep his mind on nothin else
Hed trade the world
For a good thing hes found
If she is bad, he cant see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he puts her down

When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
Hed give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain
If she said thats the way
It ought to be

When a man loves a woman
I give you everything I got (yeah)
Trying to hold on
To your precious love
Baby please dont treat me bad

When a man loves a woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she is playing him for a fool
Hes the last one to know
Loving eyes can never see

Yes when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
cause baby, baby, baby
I am a man
When a man loves a woman
