"Fuck pride! Pride only hurts, it never helps" --- Pulp Fiction

Genius dialog from an outstanding movie.

A little bit of pride goes a long way in ending a relationship.

One wrong word or sentence spoken out of line and the very foundation of years of supposedly strong relationship comes crashing down like a house of cards.

And a person isn't to blame in that. No, never. The blame should *solely* rest on the human psyche and more importantly on that uncrowned gem of the human psyche, pride!

Somebody can say something as harmless as a "Hi" and I might get offended and on the other hand someone else might hurl the worst abuses at me and I will not even be touched by it. If it was something to do with the actual words being spoken the reaction would be exactly opposite. Also, it doesn't matter who said it. They could be said by a total stranger or by your best pal and the reaction would still be unpredictable.

This IS pride. It can kick in any time and catch you with your pants down and a seemingly innocuous situation spirals into a death-inducing one for the relationship. After that it might end in a blaze of glory or fade away slowly but it will end. Even if it continues, the seed planted by pride is just too strong to go away and creates a tremendous prejudice against the opposite person.

The only solution is to be aware. Constantly.

Extremely difficult. And yet as simple as it can get.

Difficult because it is about being aware constantly and keeping a tab over each and every action/reaction/thought.

Simple because it is not dependent on any external factor like words spoken or person speaking it or circumstances. It is completely in my control.

I am not talking about the opposite person ... I am talking about myself. I am talking about what hurts me. Don't think lack of "we" attitude is what causes that pain. Having "we" attitude is not the same as lack of "I" hence having "we" attitude is not the problem. "I" factor is the issue.
