Does He Juice You Up? (or Drain You Dry?)

Look around you...
The guy you attracted on line. Does he juice you up or does he drain you dry by e-mailing and texting, but never inviting you out?
The man you're dating . Does he pick you up? Does he take you out? Does he make a plan? Does he juice you up or drain you dry?
The man you've been with . He was generous at first but now you're exhausted because you're giving too much. Does he still juice you up?
What about your girlfriends?
Or your family?
Or your job?
Do they juice you up...or do they drain you dry?
Currently, I'm a member of several masterminds. I joined these groups because I want to be around like-minded friends and colleagues who want to grow their businesses.
AND...I want to be around people who juice me up!
It's sweet.
It's refreshing.
It's invigorating.
And it just feels damn good to be with people who make you feel good about yourself!
In The Role of a Lifetime: How to Star in Your Own Love Story, I talk about the importance of looking and feeling your best when you are dating and building relationships.
It's important to take care of yourself. In love. In life. And that means being around people who juice you up and stop being around people who don't.
Sometimes it's a date. You want him to call. You worry that he won't. You hate that you're thinking about it...this much. It's draining.
Sometimes it's a man. He wants you to do this and be that and to come and go there. (Or not.) (And that's a drain too!)
Sometimes it's a friend. She doesn't understand why you're going out on a date instead of hanging with her.
Sometimes it's your Mother. She expects you to be at the family dinner. Period.
Yes, your friends and family SAY they are supportive (and some really are), but there are those who don't want your relationship to change with them. Beware.
Find the people who fill you up and support you. Keep them!
Next time you're on a date (or with someone) ask yourself, "Does he/she juice me up or drain me dry?"
You'll know the answer.
