Relationships die for many reasons..  some can be explained and others can't.

The one reason most of the time it dies is lack of trust in each other causing a meltdown of feelings and the love you once had inside your heart has slowly diminished all on account that any and all reasoning of the other is over.  Your mind starts to take on it's own reasoning in things and the trust inside you eats at you making you wonder if what you once believed in your partner is true at all anymore. 

Losing trust in the other is like taking a sheet of glass and throwing it against the wall causing it to shatter in a million pieces, scattering them all over and your left with looking at it thinking there's no way in hell you can ever put it back together leaving you with thoughts of where to throw it away , how to and when.

Nothing cuts deeper into the heart strings then losing trust for all the right reasons or for all the wrong ones, both of which don't make it easier to trust again.

Relationships die because you have let them....when once Love was alive and that's all that mattered has now caused you both to slip away further and further from the other in one way or another.   Things you once both did together and shared you now go at it alone drawing yourself miles and miles away from the other even though your in the same room.   Distance is coming between the two making you both feel like your in the other country even though you sit there and share the same air space.

Nothing ends suddenly without reason or cause and even though it takes two to end a relationship it can be the sole cause of only one for maybe reasons of infidelity which again happens for a reason to begin with when the straining effects of closeness yet distance from each other takes its toll.  One getting bored with the other or finding that you are not receptive to your partner anymore in any way what so ever and the turn on you once had has died along with any Love you felt.

Lying, cheating, battering, alcoholism, drug addictions,and money problems can all lead to the very big one called " stress"... and all of it can build up and cause the slow sometimes agonizing, breakdown of a relationship that when you both finally realize it's over you wish it had ended long ago without going threw all you did to get to the point of knowing all hope is gone and its over. The Relationship is dead!

It's dead because its over.  It came to a halt like a semi slamming into a cement wall causing it to totally fall apart and beyond being repaired. 

There comes a time when everything ends and sometimes, that moment, is sooner then we want it to be but it comes at a time when its meant to be.

Sometimes when only one holds on to the Love they feel for the other and tries desperately to not let it die. is maybe fooling themselves and not really seeing both sides and that it has all ready died in the eyes of the other making it only a mirror image of what once was.  Turn the mirror over and you see nothing looking back at you.  Then you to will see nothing is there anymore and time to move on. 

No one likes to admit their Relationship has failed to blossom and continue on but it's better to accept the reason why, and go on and hope to Love again.

Relationships die...for a reason.
