Why do relationships fail?

Answer 1

One of the main reasons that relationships fail is that the people stop communicating. This brings a large distance between the couple, and eventually they no longer feel connected, emotionally or physically. The key to a healthy relationship is spending a lot of time together, actively work/talk about your relationship, and keep communicating (even about the little problems!)

Answer 2

* Because some people they cheat or mess up by doing so. * Too immature and young when they got married ... The young woman may have been pregnant and they got married putting added pressure on both of them ... Didn't love the person the way they thought they did (people can fall out of love) ... Cheating ... Lying about things in every day life ... Financial problems ... Problems with relatives ... The male may not want to work ... The male may be in a gang or into criminal activity ... The female may have married him for his money or position in society.

Answer 3

Some relationships, such as marriages, family, and some friendships do last a lifetime. Usually, though, romantic, and some other, relationships do not last because people are selfish or just plain not interested. Sometimes it's for the best to have a short term relationship, other times it would have been really nice if things had turned out differently. Usually the best thing to do if you want to keep a relationship going is to think of the other person as more important than yourself. That's not to say that you ignore your own needs, but that you do what's best for your partner/boyfriend/girlfriend at least 50% of the time. This is what real love is, serving the other person before yourself. If you really love someone you will work at the relationship. A relationship that is centered around "I what what I want and I want you to give it to me" or "I love you because...[because of what I get out of it]" In my opinion it should be "I love you for who you are, no demands or questions made". In addition, people mostly rely on feelings when they are in a relationship, the "feel good" or get the "warm fuzzies" around a particular person but there is nothing solid to base a relationship on and it often fails. So to answer your question; relationships do not last because people are selfish and rely feelings more than they should.
