Why relationships collapse?

Why do people enter into relationships in the first place?

It's all about self-satisfaction. This includes physical, emotional, or social fulfillment, the lack of which appears to leave a gap in our lives. A sense of emptiness that we try to fill with various acts, including relationships.

We need to get this straight. We are individuals first and then partners. Everyone has a good, bad, and ugly side, and our aspirations are different.

You should be fine as long as you each contribute to the satisfaction, need, and ambitions of the other. Otherwise, it's a house of cards, and it's just a matter of time before it collapses.

It starts there, sure. But what comes after, I believe it is so much more.

@Casheyane Yes, I agree.
I believe it is so much more.
Would you want to elaborate on it a little?

@Renkon True love introduces the concept of sacrifice. When that happens, the boundary of accepting and giving gets blurry. The weighing scale is no more.

@Casheyane Profound thoughts!
