IS LOVE REALLY ENOUGH? THE KEYS TO A LASTING RELATIONSHIP

<@>Greatmindz<@>™
When I Was Younger, Love Seemed So Simple. That was Clearly Before I
Ever Fell In Love Or Even Experienced A Serious Relationship. After A
While, I Realize That Finding That Special Someone Is Only The
Beginning Of Relationship. A Successful Relationship Requires More
Components Than Simply Saying I Love You. If Love Was Genuinely
Enough, Then Most People Would Be Happily Married Living Out A
Fairy-Tale Dream; But The Reality Is, Love Is The Fundamental Glue
That Keeps A Relationship Together But It Can Be Broken And Tattered
By Irresponsible Decisions, Infidelity Or Lack Of Communication•
So The Mere Thought That Love Is Enough To Keep A Relationship
Together Is Somewhat True But Involves More Than Just Those Small But
Powerful Three Words. There Are Certain Key Elements That Each
Relationship Should Have To Make It Work•
#1• TRUST
A Relationship Without Trust Is Almost Like Sleeping With The Enemy.
If You Don't End Up Driving Yourself Crazy With Insecurities, You'll
End Up Driving Your Significant Other Crazy, Leading Him/Her To Wonder
Why He/She Hasn't Cheated Since You Suspect Him Anyway. Everyone
Deserves Someone They Can Trust. Why Suffer Slowly In A Relationship
Where Trust Doesn't Exist? A Relationship Without Trust Is Doomed For
Failure, Sooner Or Later•
#2• AGREE TO DISAGREE
Couples Will Argue. That's Okay; The Important Thing Is To Disagree
And Not Expect Your Significant Other To Always See Things Your Way.
The Key To A Healthy Relationship Is To Respect Differences. So While
He May Not Ever Understand Why You Don't Like Going To Certain Events
If Your Hair Isn't Done, That's Okay. In Turn He Should Respect The
Fact That You Just Don't Get Why He Would Prefer To Watch Football All
Day Instead Of Sit And Chat It Up With You All Day, Every Day.
Although The Two Of You May Not Agree, You Should Still Respect Each
Other's Differences As Long As They Don't Compromise The Fundamental
Of Your Relationship. And Guess What, It's Okay To Argue...Not
Fight... Now And Then•
#3• KEEP IT FUN AND SPONTANEOUS
When People Get Bored, What Do They Usually Do...Well, Besides Go To
Sleep? Most Times, A Bored Person Will Try To Find Something New And
Fresh To Do. The Same Can Be Applicable In A Relationship. If The
Relationship Is Boring To A Man Or Woman, Although Definitely Not
Acceptable, They May Tend To Go Find Something More Exciting To Keep
Them Entertained. This Form Of Entertaiment Can Be A Frequent Night
Out With The Guys Or Girls Or Worst A Frequent Night Out With A New
Boo. So In Order To Keep You And Your Significant Other From Getting
Bored With The Relationship, It's Not Enough To Rely On The Fact That
The Two Of You Have History. Laugh ToGETHER, Make Jokes, And Try New
Adventurous Things... Inside And Outside Of The Bedroom•
#4• AGREEMENT ON FINANCIAL ISSUES
Whoever Uttered The Words That 'Love Is All We Need To Make A
Relationship Work' Certainly Didn't Go Through Financial Woes With
Their Mate. Sometimes The Lack Of Money, Or Even The Surplus Of It,
Can Cause Disputes Among Couples. The Key Is To Make Sure That You
Agree On How The Two Of You Value Your Financial Future Together And
Make Decisions Accordingly. If His Credit Score Won't Even Grant Him
Approval For A Small Off-Bank Credit Card And He's Still Spending
Recklessly, This Should Be Taken Into Consideration Before Moving
Forward. Financial Issues Can Sometimes Make Or Break A Relationship•
#5• LETS TALK ABOUT SEX
He Loves To Have Sex, Often. You cAN Actually Do Without It Until You
Drop A Few Pounds. Or Even Vice Versa. Whatever The Situation, Sex Is
An Instrumental Part Of A Relationship. Whether The Two Of You Have
Decided To Hold Off Until You Jump The Broom Or You Can't Seem To Keep
Your Hands Off Each Other, You Should Agree Before Hand On Sexual
Expectations And Protection•

#6• AGREEMENT ON THE 'ROLES'

Surprisingly There Are Some Men Who Are Still Stuck In The Nostalgic
Views About The Roles Of Men And Women In Relationships. Some Men May
Think That Women Should Stay Home, Cook Three Meals A Day And Pamper
Them When They Come Home From Making The Money. If This Works For You
And Your Man, That's Fine; But If These Are His Thoughts And Yours
Consist Of You Becoming The Next CEO Of A Company, The Two Of You
Should Have A Discussion About The Roles In Your Relationship. These
Differing Ideals Will Certainly Affect Your Future Together•
