One day I was telling a friend about the latest guy I was going after, how he was back and forth between me and another relationship that wasn\u2019t working out, and how it was taking so much time and energy!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After listening to me patiently this friend looked at me and he said, \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gosh Michelle, you have so much drama in your love life<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was a little taken aback by that comment and he continued by saying, \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m not saying that what you\u2019re saying isn\u2019t happening, but I\u2019m saying that you\u2019re <\/span><\/i><b><i>creating <\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">it.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That was a wake-up call for me and I got to get really honest with myself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Was I creating it?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I realized that I was. I realized that, from a very young age, I had learned that love is chaotic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had always had poor examples of relationships in my life. Both of my mother\u2019s relationships included arguing, fighting, bickering, screaming, name-calling, and threatening. I had also watched my mom be \u201ca martyr\u201d and constantly give up what she wanted, not in a mutually compromising kind of way, but rather to \u201ckeep the peace.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I then recognized that I had always created, and was continuing to create, the same thing in my own life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My previous marriage had been filled with drama, constantly breaking up and then getting back together, and arguing about everything!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I got divorced, I thought I could start a clean page and do things differently.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What I didn\u2019t realize is that nothing inside of me had actually changed, so I continued to create the same thing in my new relationships.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I always attracted men that had lots of baggage, had many failed relationships in their past, and were just as good at arguing as I was. My dramatic energy was attracting more drama and chaos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I was over it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I realized I had this pattern and where it came from, everything began to change.\u00a0 I broke the pattern, changed my beliefs about what love and relationships look like, met Arnie, and, together, we are creating the relationship of our dreams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>If I can do it, you can too!\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>So, how do you break the pattern of drama?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>1. Recognize It.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 Today is the day to get honest with yourself. Nothing is ever going to change if you don\u2019t take a good hard look at what is happening in your life and see it for what it is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2. Own It.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 Admit that if drama is showing up in your life, then you\u2019re playing a part in creating it. When you do this, you stop being a victim to it. Take responsibility for it. You can choose to either keep going this way or create something new. And that\u2019s where the power lies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Accept It.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 This means not judging yourself because of it. By recognizing that it\u2019s there and owning your piece in creating it, you\u2019re not blaming yourself for it, rather, you\u2019re taking ownership in creating it so that you can change it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Ask yourself: What need am I trying to fill by keeping this pattern of drama in my life?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maybe you feel important when you\u2019re giving everything away for love.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maybe you feel significant when you\u2019re experiencing drama in your life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maybe you\u2019re just so used to the feelings of drama &#8211; <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">worry, anxiety, loss, frustration<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; that you stay in that surviving state because it\u2019s your \u201cnormal.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>If you broke that pattern, what could be created?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>If it doesn\u2019t have to be that way, what\u2019s a new possible belief?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>4. Change it. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a new definition of love and create new patterns. Decide what you want love to look like. And every time the old pattern shows up (because it will), recognize it, tell yourself that you\u2019re not doing that anymore, and make a different choice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose to be love-able and worthy, because you are!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>When I changed this pattern, I decided that love got to be fun and easy. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love looked like communicating calmly and rationally. Love looked like being able to be 100% myself and still be loved.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I deepened the relationship with myself and decided I was love-able and worthy, only then did I begin to attract the high-quality men that I deserved and wanted to spend time getting to know.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>What do you want?\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you willing to do the work to break this pattern and create something better in your life?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you ready to stop merely surviving, and start thriving?!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are, we have GREAT news for you!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the fastest and most effective ways to break a pattern\u00a0 and transform your life is to join us at the Irresistible Woman LIVE!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this 3-day, highly interactive, and transformational live virtual event for smart, successful women who want SUCCESS in love, we will be uncovering what\u2019s been getting in the way of you having the happy, loving, deeply connected relationship your heart desires!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re tired of the drama, the frustration, and the dissatisfaction of dating and being in relationships that are NOT the peaceful, happy, and mutually supportive, then you need to join us!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><b><br \/><\/b><b>We\u2019re making it SUPER easy for you by <\/b><b>taking 80% off the regular ticket price<\/b><b>!<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why?<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\">Because we don\u2019t want there to be ANY reason or excuse for you to not be there!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>You\u2019ll even get a special \u201cswag box\u201d with cool stuff we\u2019ll be using during the event IFyou are one of the first 100 people to grab your ticket.\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Once the swag boxes are gone, they\u2019re GONE<\/b><b>, so don\u2019t miss out on getting yours mailed to you before the event!<\/b><b><br \/><\/b><b><br \/><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/irresistiblewomanlive.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Click HERE to grab your ticket NOW!<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You <\/span><b><i>can <\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">thrive.
