Hi Makoorakoo

I would think it depends on whether the person really needs protecting? or in what way? If it were a relationship where the said person was going to hurt my children then without a doubt the relationship would be ended but in other cases we tend to put others feelings first but sometimes we have to think of ourselves I don't think this is selfish just a way or protecting ourselves too

Hello,

Who are you really protecting? You or them?

Take care.

Protection

Makoorakoo if you feel you will directly harm another person relationship or not you are doing the right thing. "Leave it!" However, pain and emotional struggles are all apart of relationship. Most people come to relationships with baggage, issues, complexes etc.......imho only love can see past all of this.

Love hides a many faults.

Love to all

Q: Is it right to end a relationship to protect someone? (Hmmm, Angelicious ponders......???)

A: It's okay to end a relationship, it's okay to persevere in this relationship too. The latter would be the most beneficial because it's a blessed opportunity for further personal & spiritual growth. Whatever is decided , there will be other opportunities.

This situation holds very valuable lessons, it could be learning to work through, & overcome the fear that drives the presumption of a painful result (I mean, "worries & emotionally painful situations" that haven't happened & might not happen).

All relationships and how we relate within them, whether it be with God, our fellow man, or yourself, teaches us a lot about ourselves. From my experience, the other person is a reflection of you, even though it may not appear that way.

That is my view regarding the question. Would you like some advice on handling the situation?

If the need is felt to end the relationship for whatever reason, then perhaps protecting or not maybe it is best to end the relationship. If you had to describe your dream partner I doubt they would need protecting, settling for anything less than your dream is in my opinion spiritual suicide. Someone once said to me "never settle for second best, it's the worst form of dishonesty" which has stuck with me, you get what you are prepared to take.

Makoorakoo, I'm glad that all is 'in the positive'...that's a very good thing. And reassurance is helpful too...even if things don't always work out JUST the way we might have wished. Take care
