People need to stop believing everything they hear, especially when it comes to people who have no idea what they’re talking about.

Here are some relationship tips you should ignore, no matter who they come from.

Love will come to you when you’re not looking

Imagine you’re single and don’t like being single, imagine you’re someone who wants to share your life with someone, you’re a person who hates being alone and wants someone to talk it out with, you want a person who’s just yours, what would you do? Not look for love, and miss your chance? NO! You look for love! If this tip applied to me and I believed in it, I would not be with the most amazing girl in the world today because I would still be waiting for love to come to me. Nothing in life just comes to you; you have to work for everything, especially love. That’s my counter tip.

 If they’re jealous, it means they truly love you

No, jealousy and love aren’t directly proportional; don’t mix these two up with each other. Jealousy is a normal part of every relationship, and it is bound to happen with the strongest of couples. Still, when jealousy goes overboard, it just means that insecurities are starting to take over; it doesn’t mean in any way that the person “truly” loves you. If they’re insecure to the point where they start going through your phone or ask for your passwords, that’s not true love, that’s just your partner not trusting you.

 Sometimes, a lie can save a relationship

If this tip were anywhere near to being true, my ex would still be with me because she used to lie to me every single day about something or the other. Lying is NOT a normal part of any relationship; don’t make a habit out of lying. If you feel the need to lie, it means you don’t love the person enough to tell them the truth; it means you think they don’t deserve the truth, do you think like that? I don’t think so. Lying does not save any relationship; it just delays the inevitable, your lie will be caught sooner or later, and either way, it won’t be pretty for you.
