Oh, and our society values 'happiness' more than sacrifice, nullification more than committment, instant gratification more than long term fulfillment.
Maybe people are in a difficult situation to learn that they can work THROUGH it? |
That's an interesting set of beliefs. Personally, I think that people need to back of the whole "work" perspective on relationships. A truly happy relationship involves:
1. Finding the right person (compatibility)
2. Communication
3. Maintenance (i.e. not getting lazy, but continuing to do the things that attracted you to each other in the first place)
If your current relationship isn't getting that, then either leave and find someone you can have that with or go to a counsellor and see if you can work it out.
But don't spend the rest of your life beating at a dead horse. Sometimes you just make mistakes. No sense punishing yourself for making a mistake.
