That's why so many marriages fail.
What ever happened to kindness and consideration? People have become far too selfish.

I think we may need a whole new thread.... :laughing:

Yes, but.....if they were kind in the first place, then the good feelings fostered by that make a partner feel more inclined to be loving...fudging follows.... :mrgreen:

Unfortunately one needs to know when to be kind and when not to be. There are people that will acknowledge your kindness and appreciate it. And there are people who take your kindness for a weakness and try to exploit it.

You can never go wrong if you are nice to a nice person. The unfortunate fact of the matter is, if you are nice to a person that isn't nice.....
