How much does it matter to you that you grow alongside your partner rather than apart from them?

[Paradiseequeen]

We have gotten closer to one another, yet our previous selves have not returned. We are developing alongside one another, but some people have realized they are just total strangers. Being married to someone who has changed over time can be unsettling. You have no idea if the two of you will grow apart or together. Change can be scary because it’s the complete unknown. I was told by the older generation you have to grow separately before you can grow together. If you don’t grow separately then it’s gonna be hard for you to grow together. Everyone doesn’t always turn out the mature one when troubles come. Live apart for a length of time before you can live together. I was always told this

Yes I’m scared of growing apart because time has been wasted

No because we grown together

Doesn’t matter to me

Growing alongside your partner rather than drifting apart is like the secret sauce in a long-lasting relationship cocktail—it's essential! Love is not just about falling head over heels; it's also about growing together, learning, and evolving. Change, though a bit daunting, spices things up! It's true that individual growth is crucial, as it adds depth and perspective to your relationship. But remember, personal growth doesn't necessarily mean you have to live apart. It's about giving each other space to explore, to make mistakes, and to flourish, all while being each other's biggest cheerleader. The magic lies in growing individually but not apart, and then intertwining your growth, creating a stronger bond. So, let's cheers to growing, changing, and loving together. After all, isn’t love the ultimate adventure? 🌟💑

Since good relationships are equal, it's important what the partners grow with each other.
