This may be the first time I sort of disagree with you Rosie. I will look for the best, but it I ignore any red flags, I may be setting myself up for disappointment. I think it is good to give people the benefit of the doubt of course, but if you see any kind of negative pattern with how they treat you or others, pay attention!
Maybe I should have qualified that m'dear. There are some people who are purely evil. Mean, cruel, users, abusers. They are out to get what they can for themselves however they can. There is nothing you can do about it. They are what they are. But if I know you think I'm kind and fair I will try my best to be that for you because I don't want to disappoint you. It's a sad thing to know that you have disappointed someone and I'd much rather know I pleased someone. Also it helps a lot to like people. All kinds of people. Not just those who are like you but those who are very unlike you. Again I'm not talking about different ethics or standards or morals. But different lifestyles/experiences/backgrounds. We can learn a lot from one another. We just have to be open to it. I have been guilty of "not noticing" the signs at times. I think it's true that you see what you want to see and sometimes blinders are your friend...short-term only of course! Thank you for your reply PeaPod.

That's the point of the question Baba. We so often find what we seek because we attract it to us. If we don't seek it then we won't recognize or appreciate it even if we may already have stumbled upon it. But it does us no good. since we are unaware of what we have. You attract what you focus on. Focus on the good and it will find you.
Don't and you won't. Did I answer your question?
