Relationships Are Not Easy

Sometimes being in love is not as simple as it seems. Sometimes external factors like a tyrannical mother or a horrible 9-5 that consumes your energy could be affecting your mood. Sometimes you have emotional issues that cause tension between you and your significant other. Sometimes it's not having enough time dedicated to each other or having too much time dedicated to each other. There is a saying that the things that made you fall in love with a person can be also the reasons why you might not love them anymore. The fact that he is a hard worker becomes "You care about work more than me; you don't ever want to do anything fun" The fact she is a nice girl becomes "You let people take advantage of you and don't know when to say no". There's a lot of time, dedication, sacrifice and stress that comes from love. Sometimes you have to struggle to find time or money to make the other happy. Sometimes you alone are just unhappy and you don't want it to translate into the relationship, but you don't know how. Sometimes the past can haunt you and sometimes it's the future that is more foreboding.
Regardless of these things, they are always worth it at the end.

As the quote goes "Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it." All relationships take both people working equally hard at it. There will be ups and there will be downs and times when you just want to give up but when you love somebody there is nothing that you can't get through together. Love is a wonderful thing you you find "The One."
