17 Relationship "Tips" I *Wish* I'd Heard Earlier

This video is a big compilation of thoughts about relationships - some of this applies to romantic relationships, some can apply to friendships and some even working relationships. Absolutely none of this advice applies to relationships where your partner (or friend! or whoever!):

👉 Is extremely possessive/jealous
👉 Is extremely controlling
👉 Is causing you physical harm
👉 Is constantly overly critical of your personality/appearance
👉 Is slowly removing you from your existing relationships (physically or emotionally)
👉 Is spying and monitoring you in controlling ways
👉 Makes nasty "jokes" or uses sarcasm in a hurtful way
👉 Refuses to apologise for apparent poor behaviour
👉 Implies regularly that you are inferior in some way - e.g. not as smart, resourceful or competent as them
