Relationships in the 21st Century
Relationships in the 21st century are becoming a rare commodity what ever happened to the long lasting committed loving relationships of times past? where are the front porch cuddle sessions on the rocker swing and the homemade lemonade on a private picnic for two? is it just us or has all the romance love and exciting spontaneity vanished. we have been married for over a decade now and continue to enjoy each other fully we make the time we want and need and we never let work or outside distractions pull from our relationship we know we are each others rock and we have the peace of mind to experience our full marriage, often times people just don’t put each other first hence the many divorces and break ups we all so often read about, as well as there is a lack of communication more times than not that plays a heavy part of the relationship not growing and continuing. For a relationship to last a couple must share with each other
Mutual respect
Communication
Trust
Honesty
Loyalty
Commitment
and with these solidly in place their relationship stands the best chance of surviving in the long run.
