The mysterious world of the single markets

The mysterious world of the "single market"

 This needs a little bit of opening up, so you get the picture - or at least I hope so.
So, let's get started, shall we??

  Let' s say you are buying a house. The real estate agent manages to win you over with some high superlatives ( in addition to serious sucking up, that comes with territory)and you are one step away from being a happy home owner....
Of course you go to see the house first before signing the papers to be married with the bank for the rest of your life.
The realtor told you about this gourgeous house in a very good location for commuting, and since your hubby likes to fix things a little bit, the house is perfect for d.i.y person.
So you are really excited about seeing your dream home, filled with hopes and fantasies.....
Until - the ugly reality hits you under the belt,and you can see your dreams growing wings and flying away the moment you see the house.
Well, talking about the good location....IF you like to live right beside a busy highway, then it's perfect for you.
Also, the hubby might like ocassionally fix a little bit here and a little bit there, but building the whole house,which is pretty much falling apart, might not be on his agenda.
So......now what?? I bet you are disappointed, angry, sad and various other things as well, and you feel like doing some butt-kicking to underline your emotions, but you definetely feel like you have been lied at and given false information and mislead you on purpose.

  Well, let's get back to the main point, the subject of this posting, the mysterious world of the single markets.
It seems quite regular practise, that the single markets are filled with these " promising houses" ,which are marketed to you by real estate agents, who are not at all familiar with the product they are selling - that being themselves.
It all goes wrong right from the start, when the " sales add" is far from reality.
There are occasions, that even the picture is wrong.
So, if you go to the car shop looking for that porche and you get to see the old bruised toyota waiting at the far end of parking lot, you might be a little bit loss of words.

Honesty goes long way with everything, because if you lie, it comes back and bites your ass at some point.
There is less remembering, when you are truthful, to yourself and to everybody else.
I am not saying that you have to undermine yourself,talk down about yourself, nothing like that.
But it is very important, that you actually know who you are, and what you want, and why do you want it in the first place.
If you don' t know that, you are in trouble - not only in your market speech why would you make a good spouse to someone, but because you don't even know yourself who you are.
Because you know it yourself, that if you make a purchase of something and once you receive it and it is nothing like described on the add, you will want to return it and get a refund...and rightfully so.
But if you go and get involved with somebody,and it is all  based on false information, what then??
The person you misleaded on, won't get refund back of that time,that was invested on you. She/he won't get a refund of emotions and feelings that was invested on you.
So, for the future's sake, make it right from the beginning, be genuinely exactly who you are, because in the long run, only that will lead you towards your dreams, without having to giving up of your dignity and values.
