Things That Kills A Strong Relationship

It is said that love alone is not enough for a relationship to flourish. And there are indeed little compromises that kill a strong relationship. Here are a few insights:

1.         A relationship starts to falter once it becomes unhealthy.

An unhealthy relationship is one that is described to be mean, disrespectful, hurtful, controlling, and overall, full of emotional abuse. 

Most people who've grown up exposed to hurtful parents and domestic violence have a tendency to carry it over when it is their turn to get into a relationship. 

Someone brought up with that kind of emotional abuse will most likely develop a thinking that the violence he saw growing up is normal in a relationship.

2.         Relationships don't work out on its own, it needs work.

Work on your relationship. Strive to keep it alive. What may have started as a love-filled relationship is not guaranteed to end up love-filled like before. A garden left untended soon grows weeds.

Yes, falling in love is easy; it is staying in love that's hard. And that’s where many relationships begin their decline.

Understanding you and your partner’s differences, embracing those little differences and working around those will make your relationship easier to handle.

Keeping it healthy, will make you both flourish and grow not just as individuals, but as a couple as well.
