What lessons have you learned from your Relationships?

I've dated a few guys and i learned not to put them before me because i will end up with nothing.I learned to have patience and understanding.And choose the people you date wisely.If you choose to date people that are not good for you,it will really mess you up. Mentally and/or physically.

Have learned things about myself and what I really want from a relationship. I have learned how to let someone in and know me for who I am instead of having a guard built around my heart. I have learned what I need not only from my partner, but also from myself. I have learned that I need to take time for myself and do things I love by myself. I've also learned to love myself before I really love someone.

I learned that you have to love yourself too. Even if you want to please your love you should be true to yourself. Make sacrifices if you are happy to do them, but don't expect that it will be appreciated and understood how much it means for you. Don't cut the ties between you and your family and friends. From a long distance relationship I learned that without trust it doesn't work. That you have to care about yourself and have to learn to deal with things alone too, because maybe you can't be there for each other always.

A nice post indeed.We really learn valuable lessons from our relationships.I have learned from my relatives how to maintain my family,how to control myself,how to deal with others and also how not to behave.Some of my relatives are successful persons who are heads of their families.They very efficiently look after their elders and children.They have a lot of friends who all love them.I have tried to closely study how they think,live and behave.Some others are persons who are not happy.I have studied their lives and know why they are so. Relationships teach us important lessons.They make us mature.We can't learn from any school or college what we learn from them.

I learned a lot from my past relationship. I learned that I should love myself first. Take care of me, because no one is responsible to take care and love yourself but us. I learned not to give my 100% trust. He committed many mistakes but I still forgave him..But after that, I feel that I can't trust him anymore. Right now, I know I am wiser, braver and prettier than before..:)

I learned that being together is not one of the main ways on how you can show your love to someone. I currently have a 3 year relationship and I can say that it will not do any good if you are always together and sometimes it just waste your time wherein you have lots of important things to do.

I agree with not giving your 100% to that person...you need to learn to love yourself first so that it'll be easy for you to love another person. What I learned is that...even if your in a relationship...your still two different people who needs their own time and space. You need to have your own time. So that you would not get tired of each other.

Oh, a lot! Like never give too much of yourself coz it kind of scares him and eventually makes him feel trapped. Never lose yourself to him and make sure that you still maintain your individuality; avoid trying to be someone else just because you feel it's what he wants. Love yourself first before loving others. But despite all these, "Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all" - to qoute the famous writer Alfred Lord Tennyson. Have a good day!

Its normal to trust but not in full as you have just mentioned its hard to give your full trust to someone you love.Its true,committing mistakes when you really trust them could be really disappointing. What I learned from a relationship.When no matter how many trials and hindrances between lovers if you really meant with each other "love" will find the way.

From my relationship,I came to know about myself as to how I will keep my love above myself and all other things in this world and how I will love her to the core.At that same time,showing too much love and thinking about her all the time is not a good thing because my ex girlfriend used this ti her advantage and started to use me as a tool for her comfortability and rest pleasures and desires will be done by others.So little selfishness is needed in love so that both receive the expected love and care.Other than that,I learned how much love can hurt me when she left me and even now besides knowing that I deserve better person and have loads of things better than her in life ahead of me,her thoughts still linger in my mind reminding that I loved her to the core and dreamed of a life with her.That is painful.But it has made me strong so as to overcome it.

I have learnt a lot from my relationships like loving my own partner and having responsibility for each other.

what i learned from my relationships was that i should be smart enough to know my partner and that i should not give everything cause at the end it's me who'll be more hurt. and balance everything cause it's not all about my partner and my love for him.

i learned that no matter any situation you should love your partner.especially if the person offend you seriously.

well i have learned much from my past relationships. i learned that having a commitment to a person means that you would not only commit yourself to the things you like about them but also to the things they do not please you. as they say you could never appreciate a rose without its thorns. i love my girlfriend now. i do admit she has her downsides but nevertheless i love her for who she is.

I have learned a lot from my relationship. I have the importance of continuing to make the relationship work even when there are hard times.It's not always easy but most people are happy later on when they stay in their relationship. I've also learned that it is important to know what you want and what your partner wants before you make serious commitments.

I learned from my relationships that it's me first. I need to take care of myself first and pamper myself. Otherwise nobody will do it. I learned not to take care of or give money in name of love (mostly forced and used as an excuse to get it). I learned that men have a complete different picture of love as women. That men are jealous for no reason still think in 2012 they are the king and you need to ask them first, although they stay away without asking first or telling you at all. I learned men will never say thanks and I am way happier alone as with a partner. I also learned that I am sick and tired of taking care of an adult man behaving worser as a 6 year old. I don't like to listen to their never ending complains or to hear how pityful they are or the little pains they have. I don't like to enoucrage them. I do have a long distance relationship now and I am happy with that. We both have our own live too so I don't need to give up and give in always. I learned from this relationship that there is no need to respond immediately, to relax and say NO.
