Amongst other reasons, I think that the main reason my relationship failed is that neither of us realised that the other person needed help and understanding.
I think that we were both concentrating on the now rather than the future. We were both too lost in love to see what was happening to the other person.
Please make sure that you talk to each other. Sit down and really talk about emotions, hopes, dreams and the future. If you don’t, and shut yourself off, you risk losing it all.
That only works if both are talking and both are listening ... unfortunately in a lot of cases only one talks and the other doesn't listen anyway 😪
