Relationship Readings, Part 2
Often when someone goes for a reading, they already know the answer to their question; they simply need a safe space to discuss their concerns and talk about options for moving forward.
In the interests of saving time for everyone, here are the answers to some frequently asked questions.
1. I’m cheating on my partner. Will they find out?
Yes. If you are worried enough to discuss this with a total stranger, you already know this.
2. My partner caught me cheating on them. I don’t want to stop. Can I get away with it this time?
No. You can try to be more careful this time, but you are not as clever or as careful as you think you are, and you will get caught again.
3. I said I was sorry. Isn’t that enough?
You are not sorry you cheated; you are sorry that you got caught. If you are not sorry for hurting your partner, and you don’t intend to change your behavior, then be a responsible adult and end the relationship.
4. My partner wants to get married. I don’t. Should I I promise to marry them “when I’m ready”?
No. Unless you are willing to set a specific and short time frame (one year or less), all you are doing is stringing them along. That’s not kind or fair. If you don’t want to make that commitment, don’t make it, and don’t promise to make it “later”.
5. My partner wants a baby, but I don’t want one. Should I be worried they’re going to “forget” their birth control and get pregnant?
Yes. Therefore, you need to be a responsible adult and make sure that you are using birth control.
If you can’t be the person your partner wants, and you can’t keep the promises you make to them, you are not the right person for them, and they’re not the right person for you. Take responsibility for your life and your actions; end the relationship so you both can move on to find people who are a better fit for each of you.
