Relationships shouldn't be disposable. If there's something worth saving - not always the case, some relationships are irreconcilable - but if there is something that you determine is worth saving, then try to do that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Couples that do save have stronger, more stable, less stressful unions. In other words, you don't want to be fighting about saving; you just want to be saving, period.
Family is the one thing that is definitely not disposable.
What defines a relationship is the work that's involved to maintain it, and it's constantly changing.
Even the closest relationships that I have I know could potentially fall away. That's not to speak pessimistically or negatively about those relationships. In a weird way, it's the opposite. I value them.
Have gratitude for the things you're discarding. By giving gratitude, you're giving closure to the relationship with that object, and by doing so, it becomes a lot easier to let go.
No relationship is easy, and nobody should ever think it is. The minute you start forgetting the needs of the other person is when you get in trouble.
The best relationship is one that does not foster too much independence nor too much dependence, but exists in the healthy interdependence zone.
All relationships are a learning experience, even ones you continue to be in. If you don't see them as that, then that's a problem.
If one person is spending all of their income on clothes, travel, hobbies, and entertaining, and one person is saving it, that may not be quite fair if and when you guys split up, depending on what the law is and what you decided to do.
As a rule, all relationships go through their ups and downs. It's really about how much you want it.
