Why do relationships fail

No one wants to live their lives under a microscope being probed about every move they make or every step they take. You cannot make everyone happy this much you have to know. But I think if you are a happy with who you are anything is possible. Sometimes, I think this is also key. When we are not happy, subconsciously whether we want to realize it or not I think so often we expect our partners to share in our misery. But thats what makes a good relationship great. When our partners don't wallow in misery with us, but they support us, encourage us. Communication another key to keeping a relationship from failing. Too often we assume that our partners should know us so well that they know exactly what we are thinking, what we need and the list goes on and on. But this is not true, each one of us is a very different person. We all think differently. We have to talk to each other in good and bad times. But another key here is in doing so with respect. Talking with love and respect. Voicing our opinions without hurting each other intentionally. Too often we give up on others for not thinking like we think. We say things like we just don't have anything in common anymore. How is this possible? The things you did have in common to begin with did they just disappear? Do they no longer exist? Have we each changed so much that we no longer have any common ground? If so then communication went out the window a long time ago as well, hence the reason you know longer know what you have in common anymore. Love takes patience. Love is kind. Relationships are a blessing is we can keep all of this in mind. Without that, like everything else that is not cherished or kept up with, it will fail miserably.
