The reasons for relationship breakdown

Some relationships flourish, some survive in name alone and some will completely fall apart. In our current Western culture, relationships are often seen to be successful if partners stay together, whereas those relationships that break down are considered failures. This is despite the fact that many so-called successful relationships continue even though neither partner is committed to the relationship. Likewise, ending an unhealthy relationship is ultimately a choice and not a necessity which may or may not allow each partner to find a new and more meaningful relationship elsewhere with another partner. Relationships could be referred to like cars, in the way that they can break down for many reasons. Sometimes it is the driver's fault, sometimes it is a mechanical failure and sometimes it is the actions of other road users. Like a car, a poorly maintained relationship is more at risk of breakdown. If a relationship isn't growing, it's unfortunately dying - and you can tell a lifeless relationship by the fruits and goodness which it produces. Kain http://www.kainramsay.com
