Love of Marriage or Relationships: Like A Car You May Need a Tune-Up

Image
We all know that there are many stages of Love & Relationships. Sometimes, it can be a good idea to do a "tune up" of your relationship and make sure you are heading in the direction you want to be heading. Love & Relationships can have all types of possible pitfalls and if you don't keep your eyes, and your mind, open you may miss early warning signs. Missing these signs may make it easy for small, rather insignificant problems to get out of hand. If these problems are allowed to spiral out of control it may spell the end of your relationship. Many people mistakenly believe that once they get to a certain point in their relationship they are safe from these problems. Unfortunately, that does not seem to actually be the case. Many couples actually fall apart after they have been together for decades. That can be discouraging news, I know, but knowing that it is possible allows you to be more proactive. So take this knowledge as a possible early step to p...

Men And Commitment Issues: Go Hand In Hand

Image
It is a very commonly held belief that men and commitment issues go hand in hand. But, as with most stereotypes, the truth may not be quite what we think it is. We've probably all known someone who was with one of these commitment phobic guys who just didn't want to settle down yet he ended up getting married shortly after the relationship with our friend ended. What's up with that? The truth is that many people, yes that means women too, who seem like they would never settle down just were waiting for the right person. Few people are going to admit to the person they are in a relationship with that the person they are with is only a convenience. But that is exactly what happens more times than not. We find ourselves in a relationship and while it isn't bad we know in our hearts that it isn't the relationship we really want to be in. So, we go along and we enjoy as much of it as we can but all the while we are waiting to meet that special someone. Most of us don...

Committed Relationship; The Stages You Must Go Through

Image
When I was looking for some ideas for this article, I stumbled upon a very interesting article. I have to admit it went into much more detail than I expected. The articles was a far more in depth look at what a committed relationship is really all about and how to get to that point. Truthfully, I was going to do an article about how you each need to define what you consider to be a committed relationship so there is no misunderstanding and hurt, but after reading the other article I wanted to explore some of that information with you since I thought it was very eye opening. The article basically said that there are 5 distinct stages in most relationships, 4 stages you and your partner need to get through in order to even reach the commitment stage. So, I guess it's about more than just defining whether or not you and your partner can see other people! Here is a synopsis of the 5 stages of a relationship: 1. I'm sure you can guess this stage: the romance stage. This is what ...
