Relationships: are you watering dead plants?







The basic rule of a relationship is the participation of both sides. When it comes to conversation, pay attention to who is sending messages first.

If you are one who always asks your partner how is he and what can you do for him, and he is passive, then it is a one-sided relationship.

The same rule is for friendship.

Look at this situation.

You are always remembering a friend's birthday.

You are here to listen to her problems.

If she needs a favor, she will run to you.

What about you? How many dead plants are you watering?

So, he is not answering, ignoring you, and then it comes to your feedback.

"What is wrong? Are you angry? Why don't you talk to me?"

Forcing your answer, you might get the next reaction:

"Are you crazy? What do you want from me?" Or you might get a block.

It took a long time that me to realize how not all people are the same. When I am leaving, I will explain my reasons.

Some people prefer ghosting. They leave in silence and close their doors, lock it and you can't do anything to make them change their mind.

Such people are cowards or have some problems with self-confidence but what connects them is the fact they don't want to talk after their decisions.

Sometimes, it happens those people came back, again without explanations, to feed their ego with your affection.

Don't water your dead plants. They will not blossom. You can get only ugly, faded flowers.

Swapping books - a devil's deal

  "I will read your book if you read and review mine." This is an example of author's deal when it comes time for reviews. Reviews is hard to get. If you sell books, it is still not guarantee you will get reviews. If I could get a review for every book I sold, it would be great. People will buy book to collect it on the shelves and leave it un-read. Or, they will read but not rate it. Many reasons are for not getting reviews, but some people don't know where and how to write reviews or are not eligible. That is the reason why authors will turn to other authors, with a proposition for review. The danger of such review is on Amazon rules: author can't review other's author books on request. I love to read indie authors and they inspire me, but I have my circle and I never accept offers to read someone I never heard about. Once I got a proposition :" Hey, I saw your review for XX author, can you write it for me, too?" I ignored it. When you have a deal ...
