we look for someone to fill the open position of the one who will love us. In other words, we are looking for someone who we can use to make us happy. If we are looking for someone who we can use to make us happy, then when we find someone to love us, we are setting ourselves up to be using them to make us happy. If we are using someone to make us happy, then we arenā€™t really loving them.

 

2) If you are trying to change or improve your partner, in that moment, you are not loving them

 

We might try to our partnerā€™s habits, their physical appearance, the way they speak, or just try to make them happier. But why would we try to change them? Sometimes, we recognize that we are trying to change them to make ourselves happierā€¦ thinking something like ā€œif he loved me, he would change for meā€.

We think that if someone loves us, they should change to make us happier. But thatā€™s not love. What this really means is, ā€œI want you to change so I can be happyā€. But what we are missing here is that if we truly love someone for who they are, then we wouldnā€™t try to change them. If we werenā€™t using them to make us happy, then we wouldnā€™t be trying to change them just to make us happy.

Sometimes, we may think that we are trying to change them for their own good. But, thatā€™s a trick. Even if we think that we are trying to make them happier, we are actually just not accepting them for who they are in that moment.

 

3) Positive thoughts is not love

 

We often confuse positive thoughts about someone to be love. Having great thoughts about someone feels really nice and enjoyable. And thereā€™s absolutely nothing wrong with that. But even if you think your partner is the most wonderful, nice, and beautiful person, that is not love. It is not love for 2 reasons.

When we have positive thoughts about someone, we meet our thoughts about them and donā€™t actually meet them. We donā€™t truly connect with them or experience them, because instead we experience our thoughts about them. (I know this is a little difficult to grasp as a concept ā€“ donā€™t worry if you donā€™t get it) The pleasant feeling positive thoughts give you is dependent on the other personā€™s words, actions, and appearance matching your definitions of ā€œperfectā€ or ā€œgreatā€. It is therefore only a matter of time before they do something to have negative thoughts about. We canā€™t think everything that they do and say is ā€œgreatā€, we will think other things they do and say are ā€œbadā€ or ā€œnot good enoughā€. If we think their appearance is ā€œgreatā€, that will eventually change. This isnā€™t love because it is completely conditional and dependent upon how the other person acts, what they say, and how they look. Moments of enjoyment (what we think is love), will be mixed in with moments of disappointment, anger, and all that stuff.

 

4) Excitement about the future isnā€™t based on love

 

Many of us innocently mistake excitement to be love. This tends to happen most often in the beginning of relationships. This excitement is the feeling that most of us consider to be love. It is the feeling of being overwhelmed with joy, or maybe having butterflies. But these feelings are actually created by thoughts such as ā€œI finally found someone who will make me happyā€, ā€œWe are going to have such a wonderful life togetherā€, ā€œHe loves me and I love himā€, ā€œI can stop looking for a partner and worrying about whether I will never find oneā€.

Once again, this is a wonderful feeling. Itā€™s very enjoyable. Thereā€™s absolutely nothing wrong or bad about it. But, it just canā€™t last. It is all created by positive thoughts about the future. Eventually, the positive thoughts of the future will go, and we begin judging what we have. Since it doesnā€™t last, and is dependent on thoughts, it is not love.

 

5) If you require your partner to do things for you, in that moment, itā€™s not love

 

Most of us have been taught that love means doing things for your partner, or in other words, sacrificing for your partner. Therefore, we generally look to our lover to fill our needs. When we look to our partner to fill our needs, we are using them.

Sometimes ā€œusingā€ our partner in a relationship is just a normal and healthy part of being in a relationship. As part of a relationship, each person has tasks that they perform for the other person. You do some things for me and I do some things for you. That makes sense. But this part of a relationship just has nothing to do with love. This is just the business and practical side of a relationship.

In addition, a lot of the times, we tend to think things like ā€œIf you loved me, you would ā€¦ cook for me, clean the room, take the kids to school more, sacrifice for me, buy me more gifts, compliment me etcā€.  After all, our lover did fill the position of the one who is supposed to make us happy. But, when we try to get our partner to sacrifice and fill our needs just to make us happy, it often creates suffering.

Sure, when we love someone, sometimes we want to sacrifice our time, energy, and money for them. Since we love them, we donā€™t view it as a sacrifice, but as a joy. However, when we try to force our partner to sacrifice for us, and do something they donā€™t want to, that is not  love. If we loved them, we would not ask them to do something they donā€™t want to do. And of course, we donā€™t stop there, we often try to guilt them into doing things for us and make them feel bad about it when they donā€™t. In doing this, we are unknowingly disregarding how the other person feels. In that moment we are only concerned about we want.

Thereā€™s no problem with that. Itā€™s not a personal issue. Itā€™s not like you are to blame for it. This is how we have all been trained so naturally that is how we are going to act in our relationships. But, when we are truly loving someone, it is selfless. We donā€™t need anything in return.

 

6) Loving how someone seems to make us feel isnā€™t love

 

When we are with someone, we may love how we feel when are around them. Sometimes, we feel so great because we are loving the other personā€¦ and there is just a connection that allows us to feel accepted, peaceful, or happy.

Other times, we might love how we feel around someone because they compliment us, we may love it because we have positive thoughts about them, we may love it because it distracts us from our negative thoughts, maybe they buy us stuff, maybe they agree with us, or maybe it is just a lot of fun. Thatā€™s nice.

However, after we enjoy being with someone, we often decide ā€œI love themā€. Thatā€™s no problem. But if we love them simply because they seem to make us feel good, this isnā€™t really love because then we will hate them when they do something to seemingly make us feel bad. This isnā€™t love because it is completely conditional upon how we feel. It is basically ā€œI love you when you make me feel goodā€ or ā€œI love you when you do what I wantā€ but then ā€œI hate you when you donā€™t make me feel goodā€ or ā€œI hate you when you donā€™t do what I wantā€.

 

7) The fear of getting hurt isnā€™t part of love

 

If you are afraid that you wonā€™t get someoneā€™s love (hurt) in return, or are worried that you will lose their love, then in that moment, you are not loving. These fears and worries are created by the concept that it would be ā€œbadā€ if you donā€™t get the love that you want. In other words, in the moment that we feel fear or worry, we are unconsciously believe ā€œit would be better if I received or kept their loveā€. This means ā€œI would be happier if I received or kept their loveā€.

If you want something from them (love), then you are not just purely loving. You want something in return. But love wants nothing. Love doesnā€™t care what it receivesā€¦. Because love itself is fulfilling in and of itself.

In a moment that we feel fear, that is just thoughts about how we might not get what we want. This doesnā€™t meant that we donā€™t love the person. It just means that in that moment, we arenā€™t in touch with this love because we are believing thoughts that are creating our experience of the situation.

These indications donā€™t mean anything about you or your love for your partner

Those are the 7 things we mistake to be loveā€¦ or 7 indications that we may not be loving in a specific moment. Thereā€™s no problem with any of it. None of it signifies that we are somehow ā€œbadā€ or ā€œworseā€ than others. This isnā€™t about creating an idea of a ā€œperfectā€ relationship then comparing our relationship to that, and deciding our relationship isnā€™t ā€œgood enoughā€. This is how weā€™ve been trained to ā€œloveā€ and relate to people so of course this is how we are all going to live.

The bottom line is that if we donā€™t truly love someone, then we donā€™t feel this love or the fulfillment that comes with it. This is how thoughts relate to love. But all of these thoughts actually prevent us from loving others. As most of us have already discovered, this type of ā€œloveā€ doesnā€™t fulfill us and often creates a lot of anxiety, anger, disappointment, and hurt. That being said, even though all of these thoughts may be there, your relationship may be filled with a tremendous amount of love beneath or behind all of these thoughts that create all of these emotions.

 

The opportunity to love

 

Now that you are aware of these 7 indicationsā€¦ when you notice that you are doing something or believing something that is preventing you from lovingā€¦ you have the opportunity to stop, take a step back, and look to see what thoughts are preventing you from experiencing love in that moment. Then, you can choose to disbelieve these thoughts (using The 5 Steps), or you just watch them.

Chapter 11.4 - Savender Way (Lie)

 Note: This is the moment when the bluff really comes and you don't know from where it comes...

The savander way is the moment when somebody is bluffing and you can't catch him... it can go like.

 

 

Give me time It will take a moment It will take a minute It will take a second Later..., we are going to talk Can be organized Can be planned Okay see you tomorrow Okay see you Friday And etc

 

 

Lies and lies and lies and lies and lies... 

 People often lie... later or will take a minute/second/moment... it really won't take... but they can't say something like

 

20...30 minutes it sounds too much... but 5-6 minutes again too much... if they say second... and it take a hour... it won't  feel the same way as somebody saying.
