HOW TO REMAIN FAITHFUL!

Another age-old problem when it comes to relationships is how to be faithful, especially if one of the lovers is far, far away.

You might want to consider these suggestions:

Make it a point to have CONSISTENT DIALOGUE between the two of you, as in always.

Infidelity begins to develop when one of the partners starts getting turned off by the other. Two of the most common causes are frustration and deception.

How do you avoid or remedy frustration?

Ask your partner for a dialogue and pour your heart out. Spare no words in revealing and explaining what it is that turns you off and why or how are you frustrated by it.

For all you know, your partner is not aware of your sentiments. If he or she will need your help to appease you – for example like earning more money --   do so, without any hesitation.

Once remedied, all’s well that ends well.

If you meet new members of the opposite sex, declare outright that you’re happily married or engaged or in a relationship.

The moment your new acquaintance starts making passes or propositions you, say it straight to his or her face that you’re not interested. Then, cut all contacts.

If the persistence continues, have your spouse or partner confront him or her at the very first opportunity.

 If your partner or spouse is in a distant province or another country, find new interests or engage in new activities to ease boredom or loneliness.

One alternative I’ll strongly suggest is Church and charity work.

With Church and charity work, you kill two birds with one stone – you get closer to God while you help your fellowmen. Not bad, eh.

Lack of sex being one of the most common causes of long-distance partnerships, don’t even think of watching or reading sexually explicit stuff when you’re alone at night.

Related to this, avoid like a plague friends who invite you out specifically to meet new members of the opposite sex. They’re not friends. They’re sinners trying to recruit you into Hell.

Remember, a wrong is NEVER CORRECTED by another wrong.

And most of all, PRAY! Pray hard, day and night if you can, for spiritual and emotional strength.   With prayer, no devil or temptation can win. Trust me. 30
