6 moEffort. I think it’s beautiful when two people can make a marriage last without having affairs or abusing one another. Even if…. Okay they have differences maybe even incompatibilities. No relationships are perfect. Some people are just adults and learn to communicate, take accountability, say they are wrong, say they are sorry, and be one another’s best friends…. And partners. Not one another’s adversary.
For some people yeah they really aren’t meant to be together. But people can make a relationship work that’s based on mutual effort. That’s based on love and respect. That’s based on sticking together honoring your vows. Some people…. They don’t have self control. Some people harbor bitterness and resentment. Some people are cowards and will run as soon as things get hard. Others leave when things are going well because they don’t feel like they need someone anymore.
When two people stay loyal to one another, have love, have respect, and can communicate. When both people can admit when they are wrong and say they are sorry. When people stay and love one another getting one another through even the WORST of days… that’s not something easy to find and if you find someone like that. Keep them.

370 opinions shared on Relationships topic. I think it’s total acceptance
Once you accept the other person for what they are and what they’re not
And they do the same
Then love can be all powerful like that
As long as you’re projecting onto your partner your ideal fantasy of a relationship you will always find something is missing
Old couples are hardly perfect couples
Most of them could have done better in theory
But they work because the no longer cared about how much greener the grass can be on the other side11 Reply

As a relationship coach, I've noticed that true love has a way of defying logic sometimes! Some couples just get each other, even after life throws its curveballs. Communication, trust, and mutual respect are their secret sauce. They're like those magnets that always find their way back together, even if they wander off course a bit. 🎯 It's that connection that keeps them steady through the storms. Plus, maybe they just have an endless supply of forgiveness and a sense of humor—essential tools in the love toolbox. 😉❤️

1.4K opinions shared on Relationships topic. I believe if you have a deep energy with someone in the very beginning to where it's almost as if you new them in a past life when these to energy are around each other there is always that beautiful feeling between you both
It is a deeper feeling it's clarity spiritual and you will never loose that feeling
And at the same time it doesn't mean that you belong together it means somewhere in time you had a beautiful friend a relation with this person that was then this is now.
Now maybe at the end of our time you will meet again and maybe that's when it will happen again but right now is not meant to be you broke up once that's it they came in to your life to help you to teach you something
I dont know if you know what I'm talking about but there are people that come back in to our lives each time around that we come back to this planet I would also say that many of us on GaG have know each other before but we dont talk to everyone on here so we dont know that they are even here10 Reply- 1.4K opinions shared on Relationships topic.
6 moI believe if you need a break from each other, then it's not meant to be. Don't get me wrong. There are people who do get back with each other and it lasts a lifetime. But I don't think that's the best practice and someone will always have the thought in the back of their head "Why did they leave me in the first place? Why did they doubt we were meant to be together?"

Anonymous(18-24)6 mo@Jersey2 Okay now, sometimes, a man can feel like how long his penis is, is actually important. But is it? When you boys measure your penis length, the truth is it doesn't really matter. What does matter is [starts writing the equation on the board: (L×d)+W/G)/(∠∝(2@t)] Length times diameter plus weight over girth divided by angle of the tip squared, okay? When we're talking about penis size, we can't just use a tape measure. We need a scale.
Example 1: @Jersey2 has a penis that is 4.4 inches in length.
Its angle is 32 degrees. Its flaccid girth is one inch in diameter. His balls are seven centimeters from the base.
@Jersey2 notes that the drift of his penis is four centimeters to penis right, and its dead weight is 0.5 kilograms.
Great! And so divide by the 17. carry the 1, and we can see that @Jersey2's adjusted penis size, or T. M. I., is... 6.3 inches. Do we got that? @Jersey2's length is 4.4 inches, but his adjusted length is 6.3. So how does our example person "@Jersey2" compare to others on the T. M. I. scale? By referring again to the T. M. I. chart, we see that a T. M. I. of 6.3 is.8 inches more than the national average.

6 moI think there is a big difference when it comes to generations and relationships. Boomers for example are more likely to stay together because they grew up in a time where divorce was less common and they made it work regardless of issues. Newer generations I would say don't respect relationships or love anymore. They tend to be very flighty and there is hookup culture that is a huge problem. They are always the first to find one little problem that can normally be worked out with communication but they rather run and start over with someone else or make excuses why the relationship failed. So when it comes to older generations I think yes they tend to see love as something worth fighting for. I can't see younger generations remotely trying to make love work they give up and move on too quickly

So do you have like a "boomer" mindset?
Have you been married a long time?

6 moYour problem is sample selection. Almost by definition, the older couples that have been together for decades despite issues, etc find peace with each other. All the real lovers that parted ways and never looked back are not counted in your sample. Were the couples any different to begin with, or was it mainly happenstance, hairline decisions about whether to stay or go, random chance of meeting other better lovers, etc?

6 moI don’t think real love depends on circling back.
If two people are meant to stay, they choose each other in the present not in some future reunion.
Sometimes letting go is what proves the love was real, even if it doesn’t return.10 Reply9.9K opinions shared on Relationships topic. The enduring couple gradually transitions from the ideal of a flawless partner to the reality of a flawed, well-known human being. They cease to attempt to alter one another and instead begin to address the inadequacies. This acceptance is the final, hard-won peace.

6 moI believe so. You'll naturally have some conflict and disagreements in your relationship, that's life. Some people are not mature enough to be in a relationship and don't know how to deal with such situations and give up immediately when something happens. They perceive relationships in a very unrealistic way.
00 Reply Some couples stay together because they share deep friendship, trust, and a willingness to work through problems, not because they’re magically meant to be. Real connection comes from two people choosing each other over and over. Relationships break when one or both stop trying or don’t feel safe, valued, or understood.

6 moI believe that the strength of a real compatible relationship comes in the fact that they don't normally have conflicts in the first place. Because they're both positive and peaceful people, and they both treat each other with kindness and consideration.
00 Reply I think that true love never dies out completely.
