Hey bro,

Love the site. I'd like to know how you got such a great outlook on relationships, and life in general. You seem like a great guy.

Well Connor, I have always had the outlook I have on relationships, which is:
"We go into relationships wanting to make the other person happy. If we try and can't do that, then we need to let them go be happy elsewhere." I just think healthy relationships start with a healthy perspective. If someone is having issues with self esteem, self control, chemical dependency, or other issues, entering a relationship wouldn't be a healthy decision. It's after you put both feet on the ground and truly discover who YOU are that you can make good decisions in your life. Push your mental discipline and willpower for the best, and you'll reap the rewards later.

As far as my life views, I developed them after the battle with cancer. I fought it alone (long story..I'll share later), for the most part, and learned that relationships are strong no matter if you see your friends and family daily or yearly. My friends and family have always been there for me and I just needed to accept that and realize that if I can be a good person to them, I can be a good person to everyone. You can't make everyone happy, but you CAN be the best person you can be.

Thanks for writing.

Sean
