"Hey Crazy!"

I'm starting to get the sneaky suspicion that I am simply not cut out to be in a relationship. I'm told that my expectations are too high.

Call me crazy but the same things you did in the beginning, should be the same things you do to keep the relationship working.

It's amazing but just like clock work you reach a point in a relationship where he starts taking up all consuming hobbies...let's say GOLF with the boys at every opportunity.

Call me crazy but it's not okay to ask me to go with you to visit your family and then you decide to go golfing with the fellas and leave me at your parents house. I just don't think that's appropriate when we are not married, engaged, thinking of getting married???

Call me crazy but it's not okay to take calls all evening and weekends from your co-worker(s) (one of them you KNOW has a crush on you). It does not matter that it's about work!

Call me crazy but I'm not going to sit on my hands while you are out with your friends or spending time with your kids. I'm not going to be "Plan B" ALL THE TIME!

Call me crazy but I am not going to get rid of my 5 yr dog because it's an inconvenience to us both when I have to schedule around walking the dog. Ming is family!!!!

Call me crazy but I DO expect you to come along to one or two of my family or friend events (and NOT BE LATE) when I often accompany you to your family and friend events (I've been the 2 Greek functions, 2 church anniversary services and a banquet to be supportive).

Call me crazy but yes it would have been nice if you would have accompanied me to meet my half sister and 6 nieces and nephews! I've known you longer than any of them!!!

Call me crazy but I do expect to hear from you within a 24 hour period. C'mon! Seriously??

Call me crazy but I do expect there to be equal work and compromise when building a relationship (a relationship worth having that is).

So the next time you see me say, "hey crazy!!!"

I know you said that your not on marriage yet. I don't know if that's by choice or if he's not ready. But I will say, pray about it and ask God if this is your husband because when you get married the only thing that'll change is your last name. Please also see wise/christian counsel. And check I TD Jakes blog below, it's pretty interesting as well.

Hey Crazy! What's obvious to us, isn't even on the radar with men. Never assume a man knows what he's doing and how it effects you. Tell him about himself. If he keeps doing it and you keep getting your feelings hurt, it may be time to call it quits. If he keeps doing it, you keep getting hurt, and you stay, we may have to stop calling you crazy and start saying.. Hey Stupid!
