5 Reasons Why Relationships Don't Last

Everyone wants their relationship to work through the channels of time but unfortunately most just don't make it and are left with the burden of not really understanding why. We want our relationships to grow and for that to happen our understanding of relationships and their dynamics need to grow as well. So to get and update on things that maybe holding you back from the relationship you've always wanted here's a new list.

1.) Ignoring Red Flags

You may have ignored certain things in your relationship that really could of saved you from a world of hurt and wasted time had you mentioned it to your partner and stopped it or even realized it was a red flag from the beginning. Most common red flags in relationships are lack of communication and non reciprocated energy which are stated in the previous list. Whatever the case may be ignoring these red flags can cause serious problems down the line so best to try to negate this as soon as possible.

2.) You and Your Partner Are Not Aligned

Sometimes you may deeply want and love the person you have chosen to be your lover and life partner. They may even have all the qualities you look for in a partner which attracted you to them in the first place however this person simply may not be for you. Think of your partner as sort of a puzzle piece, or wheels on a car without the aligning puzzle piece they can't connect and forcing them to only causes bending and breakages. Same with wheels on a car not every wheel fits the same type of car without the correct wheel size the car isn't able to drive correctly or it isn't able to drive at all. This understanding applies to relationships as well some people are just not meant to be and it doesn't matter what you say or do to try to make it work.

3.) The Relationship Is Physical

Most relationships start because two people have each other physical attractive. But, has the relationship grown past that part? I don't mean just in a sense of physical attraction I mean has the relationship grown anything physical that bonded you two together in the first place? Has it grow past just physical attraction, material things that they have like cars, clothes and jewelry, even a social media appearance as crazy as it sounds? Sadly, relationships don't grow past any of these things and people don't know who their partner is outside of those things. And further more who are you going to be once your partner isn't able offer these things?

4.) You Haven't Set Boundaries

Yes, relationships need and should have boundaries, boundaries are just not realms of physical spaces. Boundaries can be mental, and emotional. Boundaries help set the tone of how you expect to be treated not just by your partner but by friends, family, and even strangers. Common boundaries that all relationships should have are: Having alone for yourself, Saying "No" to your partner when needed, and Emotional dumping.

5.) You Don't Know Who You Are

Yes, not knowing who you are as person although not talked about is another reason why some relationships don't last. People don't like to admit it but a lot of relationships are build from trauma bonding, and codependency between two people. Some people are so use to having someone for them that they don't even know who they are as a person outside of a relationship. People rarely take the time out to understand who they really are in life and even though this may never fully happen for some having some type of self awareness is a good step.
