Relationship Interference: An invitation to disaster!
I decided to address this topic partly because it's one of the major reasons why many relationships/marriages get torn apart. The other reason why I decided to address this topic is simply because I believe "relationship interference" was at least partly responsible for my previous relationship failing. The following information is some of the best advice I can offer to anyone about "relationship interference".
If you desire to have a successful relationship leading to marriage...and if you desire for that marriage to last a lifetime, THEN PLEASE TAKE THIS ADVICE SERIOUSLY! First of all, within 2 weeks of thinking about beginning a relationship with anyone, MAKE SURE BOTH OF YOU ARE COMPLETELY WILLING TO KEEP "ALL" RELATIONSHIP ISSUES/PROBLEMS BETWEEN "THE TWO OF YOU" AND GOD! The only exception would be if both of you are in full agreement to allow a trustworthy, bible-believing person (whom both of you agree on) to counsel you. If the person you're interested in won't agree to this, or isn't willing to keep "all" relationship issues/problems between the two of you and God, then don't start a relationship with them! If they aren't willing to agree to this, then they're still immature and don't realize that satan and his demons always try to attack and wreck a Believer's relationship by using "interference" from people outside of the relationship. What I just said is also true when it comes to marriage. WHY DOES GETTING OTHERS INVOLVED CAUSE MAJOR PROBLEMS??? Because everyone has their own ideas/opinions...which leads to confusion. Plus, it creates a major problem because people start taking sides...which leads to fighting and divisions. People need to wake up spiritually and realize that satan and his demons hate everything to do with God, and especially relationships...because relationships lead to something wonderful that God created called "marriage".
Here's what I'm trying to say: When we're married or in a relationship, we must "FORSAKE ALL OTHERS"...except for God. When most people think about the term "forsaking all others", they only think of being maritally faithful, or not cheating...but to "forsake all others" means far more than simply not cheating on someone. To "forsake all others" also includes not getting and/or allowing anyone else (except for God) to get involved, or to interfere with your marriage in any way, shape, or form. Just being honest, I believe everyone should "forsake all others" in that same kinda way even when they're in a relationship. Fact is, I don't care whether it's a friend, a family member, or whoever...they have absolutely no right in God's sight to get involved or interfere with the relationship at all...because the only 3 people that should ever be involved in any marriage (or relationship) are the man, the woman, and God. As I mentioned before, if any other person ever gets involved in another person's marriage (or relationship), then they need to have full approval from both the man and the woman. If they don't have the approval of both persons before getting involved, then they are sinning against God by interfering with a relationship that isn't even their own relationship!

Thanks for the compliment, "Angelforlove". :)
And you're welcome, "So Genuine"...I'm just trying to be helpful to everyone on here. God blessed me with this wisdom, but it's only helpful to others if I share it.
I think the best thing we should do would be this: When someone asks about our relationship or marriage, we should boldly say to them, "I'M NOT ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT MY RELATIONSHIP/MARRIAGE WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM MY "SPECIAL SOMEONE".....NOR AM I WILLING TO, BECAUSE IT'S PERSONAL INFORMATION THAT I BELIEVE SHOULD BE KEPT BETWEEN GOD AND MY "SPECIAL SOMEONE". And if they ask you why, tell them, "I ALREADY TOLD YOU WHY! And if they still won't quit asking questions, or if they start trying to put the "guilt trip" on you, THEN IGNORE THEM AND LEAVE THE AREA!!! Yes, I know that might seem rude, but you've got to remember that what they're doing is wrong in God's sight...and it's also disrespectful of the privacy of you and your "special someone"!!! Plus, they are NOT entitled to know any of your personal relationship information anyhow!

You can only roll the dice so many times before you hit "snake eyes." The only way to not eventually lose is to stop rolling the dice. Well, the same goes for a serious relationship and/or marriage. You can only share the personal issues of your relationship with so many people before the relationship itself eventually becomes diseased & infected. Everyone has a bitter divorce story or conniving ex story or some such lost-at-love event. And misery loves company. Remember Proverbs 6: 27-28. When a person plays with fire...they WILL get burned eventually.
