Finding Forever With Professional Relationship Advice

By Christine Sanders


By nature, human beings are high social. Most humans live in communities with at least a few hundred other examples of the species. Now, living in such communities allows a human being to form social bonds. Most of the time, these bonds are platonic in nature. On rare occasion, these bonds can turn romantic. But a lot of the time, these romantic bonds can fray and even break apart entirely. But when they break, they can be repaired with professional relationship advice.

Humans become intimate with one another. Some crave intimacy. Other people just to want to have sex. But then there are others who want the long haul stuff, the wedding, the honeymoon, the marriage, the kids. Of course, are biologically programmed to want kids because it helps continue the existence of the species as a whole.

Of course, sometimes people succeed in their quest to procreate. It is a beautiful thing, to watch life come into the world. Unfortunately, what happens afterwards is a total mess, a veritable war on the sanity. Children have needs but do not always posses the means to communicate those needs effectively, which means a lot of screaming and crying. Children also have to be fed, clothed, and sheltered, which means that one partner has to go back to work in order to make enough money to care for the newborn. Now, caring for kids is all well and good, but some couples put so much of their focus on keeping the little gremlins alive that they forget about each other in the process.

However, it is not just kids that can drive two people apart, sometimes because they are people, fully realized and independent adults with thoughts and feelings. Now, these thoughts and feelings color the opinions a person may hold, which means that opinions may vary. Now, if opinions differ in a relationship, it can lead to an argument. An argument can lead to an issue. An issue can fester like toxic mold until it poisons the whole thing. Different opinion are allowed, but unresolved issues are not.

But it is not just resentment and children that pull a romance apart. The seven year itch is a psychological phenomenon that states that satisfaction in a relationship dips after about seven years of being together. In fact, research shows that divorce generally happens after seven years of marriage, lending some truth of the concept of a seven year itch.

But the dissolution of a union is not completely dependent on resentment or on children. Sometimes, two people just stop working as a couple. It is not the fault of anyone in the relationship, some things just come with an expiration date.

But some relationships can be saved, all it takes is the right help. Some people will go to an advice columnist, others will go to a spiritual leader of some kind. But some people will seek out a counselor with an actual degree and go to them in order to repair what has been broken.

But a therapist can only do so much. All they can do is offer advice. At the end of the day, it is up to the couple to consciously choose each other and work on themselves.

Life is a difficult thing to go through. But the right partner can make it easier. But staying for the partner might take a little effort.
