LONG TERM RELATIONSHIPS

It seems long term relationships are far and few between. 

Long Term Relationships

During the course of a committed relationship, marriage or otherwise, there will be challenges.  The newness of a relationship only lasts so long and then wears off. The excitement begins to settle, and then the true “getting to know each other” actually begins. We become more comfortable in the relationship and our deeper personality traits now surface. This can be unsettling in some cases, and we can let little insignificant or large surprising traits irritate us.

We learn to adapt and accept our differences, or we can challenge and stress over these differences to the point that they may be deal breakers.

Some individuals will learn to adapt and are willing to make changes to themselves, while others may refuse to make any changes as they feel they should not have to change for someone else. 

In relationships, we cannot expect someone to change to suit us. We can only make changes ourselves, either in character, circumstance or attitude.

This can be where some relationships crumble while others gain momentum. At this point, due to acceptance some relationships actually become stronger as love, hard work and acceptance are the backbone of a relationship. There will always be times when the relationship experiences difficulties. The outside world influences everything it touches but if we recognize that the source of irritation is from outside the relationship, the bond can deepen.

For those individuals currently going through one of these phases, recognize that in most cases, a slight change of attitude can make a world of difference.  Acceptance, compassion and support for one another is essential. Most irritants are temporary. Remind yourself to review the circumstances and look at the influence of the events around you.  Illness, family, world situations, finances, worry, fear, anxiety and attitude must be taken into consideration.  These can have profound consequences on relationships. 

After reviewing outside circumstances, you likely will come to realize that your relationship is good but other parts of life may need some adjustments.

For those that are experiencing difficulties in their relationship and have been for some time, be sure to have clear communication. Seek counselling as a professional can offer advice that you may not have thought about. 

Long term relationships take hard work, perseverance, love and compassion. Do not let the stress of outside influences affect your relationships. Do the work needed. Your well-being and the well-being of your relationship is worth it!

NEVER STOP TRYING

Never Stop Trying

Because of fatigue and frustration, we may feel like giving in to the pressures of life and stop fighting for our rights or stop fighting for what we know to be the right way. It may feel as though you have been struggling for so long and have not made progress, so why go on?

Questions that seems to surface during these struggles focus on “how much longer will this last”, “am I strong enough” and “is this worth it”. 

We might have been walking this path far too long and running out of patience and running out of ideas. We are just about ready to give in or let go.  This is what is referred to as reaching the bottom. In many cases, once we reach the proverbial bottom, we are then provided with a turning point, or a solution is finally contemplated.  We may have finally let go and realized that it is out of our hands and there really is nothing we can do about the situation and miraculously a solution is at hand.

Nothing lasts forever. A turning point always presents itself in due course. We must endure and learn the lessons at hand as there is really no other way to proceed.  It is out of our hands and now although we have tried in many ways to correct the situation, nothing has changed.  This is where the most important lessons in life are offered.  We do not stop falling until the bottom is reached.

Life often seems to dictate, and we have no other choice but to go with the flow and stop fighting the process.  Once we surrender quite often an answer appears seemingly out of nowhere

Never stop trying, but surrender to the lesson and be open. Learn the lessons to become stronger and wiser. Let go and allow when you need to and know that life will move in the direction that it is supposed to.
