Clich�s for thought:
Some of the things that attracted you to a person in the beginning of your relationship will be the same things that you hate most about that person when you break up. �He was so care free and fun when we started dating�� �He�s such an irresponsible ass, I can�t stand him�� Same character trait.
Good relationships are based on the ability to communicate. If you�re not communicating effectively, trust will break down and respect will break down. If you can�t get your point across or explain how you really feel � because either you can�t voice it or the other won�t hear it or more often it�s a combination of both - then you�ll develop trust issues because you�re operating with different pre conceived notions of a subject. Respect will break down soon after � no trust no respect.
Relationships suck � their too much hard work� sort of like life. Living is hard work, but you do it, and for a relationship to stay alive you have to be willing to sit someones ass down and say �LOOK! This is what I need, I can�t compromise on this, I�m sorry, but either turn the shower valve off when you turn the main water off or it�s over. I am sick of getting shot with cold water every morning and while I try to remember to check it before I get in, you could as easily turn it off for me because you supposedly love me and people who love each other shouldn�t subject their partners to the modern day equivalent of chinese water torture.�
i'm not speaking from personal experience here
you never know what you have until you lose it
sometimes the best thing for you is staring you in the face
you can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need
old habbits die harder than an elephant being attacked with a toothpick
there is no such thing as a free lunch
it is impossible to change a person, people don't even change themselves, they just drop old habbits (end even that can take forever to happen)
you can't cure a person of a habbit
just leave the bastard
