Every relationship, no matter how
romantic they might be at the onset, has its flaws and strong suit, with the
manner in which couples approach the former being what ends up making the
difference.
However, lovers and would-be
couples often get delusional with regard to certain profound truths in
relationship, something that pushes them to create false stereotypes and abide
by misleading convictions that ends up spelling trouble.
To avoid mincing words, here are
seven profound truths relationships share in common, although many would always
be swift in disagreeing.
The right one
For many single persons, not
having found the right person is the reason for putting the kibosh on potential
relationships—even when there isn’t actually ‘right one’ hanging around.
While this is not a licence to
hookup with partners who fall below one’s preset moral standards, general
relationship values are delicate pacts that are built as the relationship
progresses—they’re not ready-made.
Romance fades
Getting too busy with career and
other daily routines could undoubtedly quell the primordial romance in any
relationship over the course of time. This shouldn’t freak you out since it is
not unexpected.
Being adventurous in all sense of
the word, spending ‘quality’ time together irrespective of hectic schedules,
sharing memories and recreating your first date together in romantic escapades
would help tackle the fading passion in the relationship.
Unrealistic expectations
Most people have highly demanding
expectations and this pushes them to enforce preset prototypes on their
would-be partners. In cases when these are unmet, problems abound.
Many expect their partners to
readily anticipate their wants, always be sexually available and insatiable,
always be the same person and handle problems unerringly. But in most cases,
these aren’t so different from mere fantasies.
There’ll be hard times
No relationship is perfect as
every couple often find that there have their own share of knotty issues to
work out. Some relationships could hurt from very little things that others
consider to be easily surmountable.
In extreme cases, every logical
force would yodel it repeatedly that calling it quits would be ideal. But the
manner of approach put out to tackle these hurdles is what eventually tells on
how long the relationship is maintained.
False assumptions
Prior to hooking up with
potential partners, your ideas about them might not be all that logical and are
often built on previous relationship attachments and deductions from a sequence
of experiences with that person.
Knowing this beforehand would
brace up your emotions against the shock of finding that your assumptions about
them are faulty or that you’re hooked up with totally different person—whether
for the good or otherwise.
Loving versus being in love
People often fail to understand
that loving someone and being in love are two different things. While the
former could stem from infatuation; possessiveness; or obsession, the latter is
more selfless and about how you make them feel.
Being in love means you worry
about how to make your partner feel loved and mistaking one of these for the
other could lead to regrettable relationship decisions, one which a person
might suffer longer than expected.
Secrets have weight
One can never over-reiterate the
extra nourishment that a heart-to-heart conversation addressing obvious, yet,
unconveyed concerns that stunt the growth of the relationship could have.
Relationship issues could be more
weighty than envisaged. Some secrets could be juicy; others could be
scandalous. But is only logical that you always avoid hiding things that could
end up putting a rift between you two.
