Relationships. Ah, yes. They are drenched in both the good, the bad, the ugly, and everywhere in between. Anyone can attest to that. Many can also agree that relationships are undeniably complex, require the utmost dedication and can either make, or literally break, the individuals involved. Especially if an air of likeness is not present for both to share, a falling through is most likely bound to happen. How is it you can stop this? Well, not being able to control a relationship entirely -no matter how wishful or ideal we may think- there is really only a way to prolong and keep a relationship active, to keep it healthy. But, know that the way to maintain a relationship and label it as "healthy" is truly no easy task. And this is only natural to expect as things worth loving and fighting for are never obtained and cared for without some sort of struggle, whether such relationship strife be intermittent or perpetual.
What Does It Take?
It takes a mutual understanding of each others' inner workings, thoughts and desires to keep a relationship going, to maintain that gained interconnected ebb and flow. Yet, it also takes action and a bit of work to satisfy these inner wants within each other. For acknowledging how your partner works, thinks and craves is hardly enough; it is recognizing what makes them happy and then going out of your way to do and provide items, gestures, emotions and expressions that keep them that way, even elevated further.
The Relationship Tie & Why We All Wear It
Around all of our necks is the relationship tie. We wear it, whether proud, disgusted or just flat out indifferent. But, regardless, we wear it. I stress the significance in the word "wear" here.
"Why do we wear it," you ask? Because we choose to, and need to. Think of it from the view of cohabitation, from the human perspective of social requirement and want for communication, particularly with a mate. Now, consider not wearing that relationship tie. Without it who are we - ourselves, alone, incomplete? Yes, yes and yes - somewhat. Now, this is not to say that without a relationship or that significant other that individuals less than themselves, are completely alone or only half in existence. Yet, it is implying that we are without someone else to love and confide in through a relationship perspective.
Filling In Gaps, Building Relationship Bridges
Relationships are vital to harnessing stable and fulfilling human existences. Relationships are popular, no doubt, but, not by demand - they are popular simply by necessity. We either have relationships now, had them in the past or currently want them because we're missing that connection with another. And in either span of time in which we're in the middle of a relationship it is because we need to have them. If not for support, reassurance and learning potential among a slew of other beneficial reasons, relationships are also just helpful in every aspect. Most notably, they assist us individuals to not only discover who we are but also who we are drawn and pulled toward.
