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!

PERSEVERANCE

Do you have the tenacity to just keep going no matter what you face or do you lack determination and drive?

In reality, giving up on living is not an option if we want to live life. We can and must learn each lesson that is in front of us. It does take determination, but we cannot allow the pressures of life to rob us of the right to live.

There are many events in life where we do not have a choice if we learn the lesson or not. Some events may not have a resolution (that fits into our idea of a positive outcome). We wage wars sometimes and the battles cannot be won. Resistance to change is futile. That is when we can adjust simply by changing our outlook on the change. Letting go is not giving up. There are times when letting go is the intelligent route to take. Holding on can create stress and disease and we generally hold on because of a mental concept we are also holding on to or we simply fear the unknown. Our mental attitude can be our own worst enemy.

Persistence and drive or allowing events to unfold are choices that we must make. Although the road ahead may seems bleak, we do not know what is on the other side of a life lesson.

There are times when we seem to have to reach bottom and nothing more could possibly go wrong. We feel deflated and overwhelmed (but isn’t this when we stop resisting?). It is then that there seems to be a shift and we find the resolve to stand back up and subconsciously say, “I understand now”.

Persistence, determination, but also perseverance are invaluable. You are worth it! All things are temporary, but the tools obtained from the lessons learned are irreplaceable.

Recognize your strength, your resolve, your abilities, your value.
