Every relationship takes work, but bad relationships will never be fixed with work

that's why your mom is such a great girlfriend, because she is soooooooo easy

You ever stop and think that "easy" relationships are simply two people that know how to work together?

Yeah, but the sex in a bad relationship can be stellar.

You're right but people will hate you. They want to believe that everyone lives in the smart wife dumb husband Everybody Loves Raymond paradigm. Good relationships take little work.

Well it depends. If you're talking about the early stages boyfriend/girlfriend, then yes. However, you throw marriage, kids, sleeplessness, more responsibility and longer hours at work, more bills, etc. then that is the "work" part. Stress brought on by lack of sleep and longer hours tends to bring out the worst in even the most gentle soul.

How long was your longest relationship?
Relationships take effort from both people. Especially when you've been together a long time.

Agree for the most part. I've been married almost 12 years and we dated for about 5 before that. Basically all through college and grad school. We've been living together for 14 years. The bulk of that has been smooth sailing. It is the rough patches that you work through that makes the rest seem even easier though. Either you click or you don't.

Agree. Been with my wife almost 20 years, married and dating. Never have drama, never had a fight, both love our inlaws and familes. We're generally not shitty people.

The truth is that a good relationship is easy and if it’s not easy, it’s not that good.
Taking it out of the personal realm, think of a vendor who after several years begins to take a loyal customer for granted. As the customer begins to feel under served, another vendor comes along, offers better service at a lower price, and there goes the relationship.
Personal relationships are similar on some levels. Obviously the emotion of love is different. Regardless though, if mutual admiration/respect dwindles, the relationship is at risk. Sometimes the loss is unavoidable. Sometimes it isn't.

Not the same thing at all. In a good relationship you don't simply abandon your partner in that situation - you refocus to figure out how make things better.

No not still takes work it's just easier in a good relationship because the couple usually works well together.

Whatever happen to the notion that nothing easy is worth doing?

What if I don't want to work and just want to take it easy?
All this relationship talk is very confusing.

Well I would imagine it's very easy to have a relationship with a giant doll. They don't talk.
We are talking about you right??

Sorry. Sticking with another human being over the long term does require some work.
