Relationships issues

Do you think that relationships are kinda fake and overrated nowadays? I personaly believe like this, with some exceptions. Are you single or in a relationship? Would you change something about that if you could?

It depends on how you take a relationship. It's not practical always to expect 50-50 sharing.

It’s not but we always do that. Maybe that’s why many couples break up so easily.

@psandraSo you understand! Try and handle relationships like that at least in case of marriage and you will be happier.

@psandra Couples that break up so easily are the ones doing it right. They had figured out early on that they are not going to spend the rest of their lives together. Why stay together once you had figured out it's not forever?

I am single. Sometimes it's better to be single. I do what I want to do.

If you are with the right person, you will get to do what you want to do. If the person you are with doesn't allow it perhaps you are with the wrong person.

Relationships tend to be fake because lots of people have grown used to lying and telling fake stories over the Internet. One doesn't know what to believe anymore.

With a fast-paced world, everything is instant. People want everything fast. So yes, relationships now are fake and overrated, not to mention they are stupid. When I say stupid, it means people no longer think, as long as they get what they want. Relationships had lost its real sense, making people all the more vulnerable. Since I am in a relationship, I do my best to keep everything real and not based things on nonsense. The other thing is keep it simple. Many people just like to show-off that makes it overrated, even it is not necessary.

@psandra Thank you. People are just hardheaded and will find all the excuses in the world.

I approve, we need to realise that, but unfortunately most of us don’t.

Now-a-days relationships are kinda fake. For some which turn out to be true. I am in a relationship but alone only.. so it feels like i am single.

You should do something about that. You are strong, you can do it!

Relationships are defined by those that nurture it.

Any relationship is what you make of it. I am not currently in a relationship but that is due to choice. I am menopausal and I don't believe another person should have to endure this challenge with me. I have many potential suitors that swear that they can handle anything I can throw at them. They unashamedly beg for my time and my heart. If I were to accept and take any of them for what is to be well-intentioned, then I am being dishonest with myself and I am allowing them to be dishonest with me and themselves. People have an immense capacity to love and genuinely and generously want to share their lives with someone they believe is worth any obstacle that may arise. There are people that are fake, but I don't believe they "All" start out that way. And if they do, perhaps it's not the intentions of the others that need to be examined. Perhaps, it's the preconceived ideas that are place upon the status of being in a relationship. To blanket everyone and or every relationship to be fake, only means the persons that do so are not ready for a relationship or not deserving of one. Forgive me for being blunt. But there are almost 7.5 billion people in the world. Be selective. Know you are worth what you want out of a relationship. Don't think it. Really know it. When you do, you will carry yourself differently. You will walk and stand taller. You will turn heads only because everyone else sees it too. It is undeniable. And if you don't get what you want, move on. Don't put blinders on because someone says you are beautiful. Don't ignore any red flags that keep waving in your face. Know you deserve better. Don't put any time or energy on someone that is less than. Otherwise, you are getting what you deserve.
