We should just love our loved ones as they are…This sounds wonderful…But…
The truth is, there are behaviors that we just don’t like and want others to change
Especially our loved ones, whom we have to live with
Sometimes we think if we are more clear and direct with our loved ones about what we want then they will magically change and start acting on our requests or opinions
They might even say, I want to hear your opinion and what you have to say
But this doesn’t mean that they are going to change
One of the best ways I have learned how we can love our loved ones even when they do things we don’t like is…
Stop resisting who they are; Stop expecting them to be different; Allow them to be who they are; Love them any way
Now, you might be saying…
But their behavior Impacts me negatively and I don’t want to deal with it
If that is the case then you can set a boundary for yourself
Remember a boundary is always done in love for all parties
Love for yourself and not dealing with a behavior that impacts you negatively
Love for the other person and desiring for them to be able to be who they are (you don’t want people controlling you either)
So for instance If someone does or says something you don’t like
If they are in your home you might ask them to leave or if you are in their home you might leave or if it’s your spouse, you still might choose to leave the home
(These actions are not done in anger)
If you are struggling with a relationship I would love to help
