Why are there ups and downs in a relationship?

I agree for if you didnt have any ups and downs the relationship would get boring

If the ups and downs relate to fighting between us then yes it has happened if u call it that way as there are a lot of fights but after the fights the best part of makeing up is there as well and no i will not call that as downs in one relationship yes i agree that two people are different but the second best part of being in a relationship or in love is that you are sacrifice a few things for that other person whom u love i have not had any downs in my relationship but i can say that my relationship is true and that too proudly so i do not agree with u and i have been saying i love u to my girl friend since the past 10 years so we have also spent quite a lot of time together as well jus in case time is your criteria for ups and downs so there as well i have not had my downs and i pray it never happens to me

I would say no one is perfect. everthing can't always be rosees. that is just life.

I'd have to agree that not everyone is the same, but I'm not sure if that's why relationships have ups and downs. I think people's emotions and how they percieve things is what causes a lot of ups and downs in a relationship, not to mention the stressors of every day life. Things happen in our lives that we cannot control, and how we deal with those and how we percieve them is what causes ups and downs in relationships.

Well i've got a simple explanation with these. Ups and downs in a relationship is like "roads" we travel. Some are rough and some are smooth. It's just normal for relationships to experience those things, that's the spice of it you know. And i think it will be very boring without it, don't you think? That's where we learned our lessons in life. (",)

According to me, there are many different phases in everybody's lives, and being unstable in our nature, its the views of people that vary from time to time, conditions to conditions and nature to nature. So, if there are all ups and evrything good happening in the life, we would not be able to have the value for the happiness of life, until and unless there are downs and some sadness in our way, we look for the happiness. As soon as the time changes we are in up mood swings, we get to know the actual value of the happiness of our life.....Finally I personally feel until there are downs in my life I am not having the importance of ups of my life.....Cheers!!!!!

Yes, I agree with you that couples tend to fight because of their differences. But through these fights, the relationship grows stronger and they will learn to understand and appreciate each other more. It is normal that there are ups and downs in a relationship.

I wouldn't say it wasn't true but for me it would be very boring. I cant imagine a realationship that was the same "yes, dear" day after day.

All relationships that I know have their ups and downs. This is because no two people are exactly alike. We have different likes and dislikes, we think and perceive things differently. This is the reason why arguments will happen from time to time. However, if two persons are compatible, it always takes a little effort only to iron things out and the little fight soon fades away.

Hey, I feel until and unless we all do not have any kinda downs in our life, we dont value the ups being coming after that.........this is why as far as we fell pain of downs in our life, we double a times rejoice all the moments when we are up after that, Happy myLotting!!!!!
