Relationships - How To Be Treated

What experiences or credentials do you have that qualify you to write as and examiner?


I've experienced love and loss of love in my life. I'm a 49 year old woman and I know what "most" women want in relationships. We want to be loved, respected and cherished Most women who want more than a "casual" relationship want to share their life with a partner they consider to be thier soulmate. In 2001 I lost my former husband. He was killed on 911. He was one of the NYC Firemen. He went into the South Tower and never returned. We had divorced one another but were recently reunited. He was my soulmate. In retrospect, I feel that we had to go through what we both experienced in order to realize how much we loved one another. My advice for young women in relationships would be the following; Discuss your needs with your significant other. Realize that if your partner is not willing to give you what you want now, the chances of him ever giving you what you want ranks on the lower scale. Don't compromise your expectations - but be flexible.

In your articles, what are some topics you would examine and why?

How your partner treats you. I would discuss this topic to let women know how "I feel" a man should treat a woman. I'd also discuss in-law dynamics. I would discuss this because often times couples do have "in-law" issues. There can be differences between Mother-In-Laws/Daughter-In-Law due to trivial, meaningless differences.

How To Be Treated The Right Way

We’ve often asked ourselves the following question in love and life….how can I be treated the way I deserve to be treated? How can I find true, compassionate love? Someone who truly cares for me and will always be there for me? The answer lies deep within ourselves. We first need to know what makes us tick. What are our needs, our desires? Do we fall in love easily, do we surrender ourselves to the first handsome man we lay our eyes on? If that sounds like you STOP!!! Learn your triggers.

Ask yourself the following questions; 1) Who 2) What 3) When 4) Where and 5) Why.

The first question; Who - who are you? What type of man are you best suited with? Is he a professional man, does he need to have a specific professional license after his name? i.e.; an MD, a Lawyer, a politician, an accountant, a professional athlete? Can I be happy with a regular blue collar type of worker? A fireman, a police officer, a school teacher?

The second question: What - What do I want out of a relationship? Do I want children (only if this applies to a woman of child bearing age - there is always invitro fertilization & adoption.) Do I want a companion, someone to travel the world with?

The third question; When - When would I like to see this mystery man appear into my life? Will I be willing to accept him for who he is?

The fourth question; Where - Where am I meeting possible love interests? Are you employed in a large organization? Do you interact with many people? Are you making yourself accessible to social events that will possible enable you to meet eligible men?

The fifth and final question; Why - Why do you feel you are not complete without a partner? What happens if you don’t meet Mr. Wonderful? What happens if you only Mr. Right Now?

You have to take in consideration the fact that you may not meet the man of your dreams when you’re ready to meet someone. It’s all about timing…timing plays a key role in what happens in our lives.

To all my readers, be patient….don’t rush into anything….get to know the person you’re involved with…find out how he interacts with his family…often times if there isn’t a strong loving caring bond with his family that can be a clear indicator of how he will treat you.

We learn what we see from our developmental years as children growing up.
