If life were easy and understandable, here is how the perfect relationship would go:
1)You are on your own and feeling OK with yourself, but not really seeing anyone.
2)You meet someone you would like to get to know better.
3)The two of you decide to go out together.
4)You both have a really good time on your first date. You can't believe how much you have in common.
5)You go out again, and again it is great.
6)After going out together several times you both realize you have found someone special.
7)You fall in love and continue dating steadily.
8)You decide to get engaged.
9)You plan the wedding together and await the day.
10)You get married.
11)You live happily ever after.
But life is rarely easy or understandable. So things never seem to work out according to this list.
Trust
Relationships cannot grow or have a chance of becoming happy if there's no trust. Trust is something that grows when people see that they will not be let down or hurt by another. As i always like to say "With Trust, come Freedom".
Greener Grass Syndrome
The grass is always greener on the other side? No matter who you go out with, someone prettier/handsomer/smarter/stronger/more caring/etc. is going to come along. Your job in life, in conjunction with your partner, is to learn to deal with these normal human flaws that make all of us unique.
Out of Love
There are situations where you can look at your boyfriend or girlfriend, you can "feel" that "something" is seriously amiss and you can say to him or her, "Is something wrong? If something is wrong please tell me and I will fix it." And the person will look you right in the eye and say, "Nothing is wrong. I'm fine." And then a week later he or she dumps you and you find out there has been "someone else" for a month. Most people experience something like this at least once in their lives, and it is bewildering.
Why does that kind of stuff happen? It happens because relationships are random. There is no explaining why someone falls in love with you in the first place, and there is no explaining why someone falls out of love with you, either. It just happens. When it happens, the only thing you can do is accept it, be thankful for the good times and walk away. That can be incredibly hard to do, especially the first few times you get dumped; but it is the only thing you can do.
Rejecting a Crush
Always be honest. Never lie to someone who is crushing on you or lead them on. Don’t lie just to “spare his feelings,” because if he finds out, he will be more hurt that you lied. Respect his feelings and respect him as a person.
A Relationship is similar to an investment. Money, Time, Effort and Youth. Of course like any other investment, there are risks involved.
