There are a lot of things that can go wrong in a relationship...it's almost depressing how many of them end each day, and sometimes for the dumbest, most avoidable reasons. If you think your relationship may be in danger, or are wondering what went wrong in your recent ex-relationship, take a look at the list I've made here. These are the top 5 "no-no's" of relationships.
1) Cheating on your partner. Absolutely inexcusable, and both guys and girls do it. I can't even tell you how many times my friends' and family's hearts have been utterly ripped from their chests because the people they love cheated on them. Being unfaithful shatters trust and causes the person being cheated on to doubt his or herself. If you love your partner, you love him or her enough not to cheat. If you can't control your sex drive enough to stay faithful to the love of your life, then you're nothing more than a subhuman animal and you deserve to be alone.
2) Being too controlling. Sure it's funny on TV when a professional comedian plays a hapless, good-natured guy with an evil witch of a wife who calls him every fifteen minutes to demand to know where he is...but in the real world that's not funny, it's exhausting. Don't think I'm just talking about women being too demanding either...guys do it too, and it's not a joke, it's not cute, and it's not justified. It's emotional abuse is what it is, and a lack of trust that's going to end up with you being quite lonely.
3) Not providing the emotional support your partner needs. I know, it's another movie cliche, this one usually in "chick flicks." We've grown so used to seeing it in movies that we often don't recognize it happening in real life or understand its impact on those we love. Having the love of your life not seem to really care about how you feel is a horrible thing that can cripple self-esteem in some people and really set others off. This can mostly be avoided just by listening to your partner, truly listening. Both guys and ladies need to feel like they matter to their partners, so don't let down the one you care about.
4) Fights that make too much of a difference. Face it, every relationship has troubles and therefore at some point or another there's usually a fight. Believe it or not, this is actually healthy...it allows you to get the air cleared about things that are making you unhappy, and makes everone aware of what needs to be done to bring the two of you closer together. The problem is that some people allow these fights to affect them too much, and they develop into all-out wars that shake the ver way people feel about one another. This is a bad misuse of a conflict...so basically all I can tell you is CHILL OUT and take heed of what's being said rather than blowing up.
5) Lack of "zest" in a relationship. I'm not talking about craziness in the bedroom here, I'm talking about enjoying each other and the time you spend together, keeping things active and loving your lives together. Boredom and lack of spontanaeity is a deadly threat to relationships that's been on the uptrend lately, and nothing makes me sadder than when I hear of a couple that was beautiful for each other and loved each other deeply just kind of dissolving because there wasn't much there anymore. Stay creative with your love, and make every day you're with your partner as much of a blessing as it should be.
These are the five top "destroyers" of relationships...and most of them should never have a chance to ruin anybody's relationship because they're just ridiculous. Respectively, each one of these problems could be easily avoided by having just a little loyalty, trust, consideration, coolness of mind, and dedication! These are things I'd expect any happy couple to have...without them you'll be lonely and in pain, as will the person you love.
So try your hardest not to hurt your partner with these stupid and avoidable problems. There's no reason the two of you can't be swimming in happiness together, so long as you make a little effort to be a human being...and I don't see that as an unfair requirement.
