Hi Kiara!

Most of my relationships last about 6 months to a year. I cannot seem to get past this thing. I look around my girl gang and so many of them are experiencing the same thing. What is going on and what can be done about it?

Hi Peter Loyad!

                It is easy to get along in the honeymoon phase of your life. During the early stages, when we are falling in love, all we see is how our wavelength matches and how wonderful our new partner is. We see our common things, but not our differences. But as time progresses, things change and we get to know that we are two separate people with different thoughts and beliefs.

And sometimes the big fight is all it takes to unravel a relationship. And then people tend to move out of that particular relationship.

But there is also a different angle to this relationship thing. A long-term relationship cultivates out of a short-term relationship. Few people ever know what they want until they will try to find out. One way to find out is to discover. This is what happens when you are part of a short-term relationship.  Initially, the relationship would have some short-term needs. And, sometimes it might happen that our desires and needs may not be getting met and the relationship fizzles out.

But what I feel is that short-term relationships are the foundation of long ones. Even the ones that do not work are just another way of discovering yourself. Each is a learning experience and it will always make you a better person.

Love,

Kiara
