As humans, we can not possibly stand alone, we need people around us, people who motivate and help enlighten us on a daily basis even when we aren’t really in the mood for all that. Relationships are actually one of the hardest things to keep. And we are not just talking about boyfriend-girlfriend relationships; we are talking about friendships, family relations, and even relationships with roommates, but yes, the boyfriend-girlfriend relationship is still included.
I mean we would be dumb to not include that, but we just want to give you a general overview, nothing too specific. So now let’s countdown 5 reasons why that relationship might not be working
5. You Don’t Compromise

I know the whole internet is always telling you to choose yourself first all the time but the truth is that it won’t work out. Almost 50% of the time you have to do things you don’t want to just to make the other person person happy, this of course has to be two-sided.
For example, you want to go to a Chinese restaurant but your friend wants to go to an African one, you know you got to make the decision last time and so this time you will just let your friend pick.
Of course, compromising is most times about more pressing decisions and matters, but the point is to just be comfortable with the idea that not all things will go your way 100% of the time.
4. You Find It Hard To Apologize

Another internet myth is that sorry doesn’t fix anything, actually, that word can go a long way for a lot of people. Just the fact that you accepted that you hurt them makes things a little better.
Now I’m not saying sorry fixes everything, you can’t be sorry your way out of ruining someone’s life, but you can be sorry your way out of forgetting their birthday.
3. You Don’t Find Their Stuff Important Or Support Their Goals

Imagine you tell your friend about something you love and they dismiss it like it’s nothing or even make fun of it, that’ll be terrible. Normalize taking the importance of things your friends find important, no matter how dumb it may sound.
In any relationship, it’s important to show support. Sometimes you might be concerned and want to advise them against it, which is valid but it’s also important to note that nobody likes a nagging person. Too much advising does make one seem like they nag a lot and that is why it is important to just accept some things instead of advising against it. If they were going to do it, they would do it either way.
2. Miscommunication In The Relationship

Everyone already knows about this but I don’t think they really know how deep it goes. Miscommunication can single-handedly destroy a relationship of 5 years, a friendship of a lifetime, and more. Truth me as someone who doesn’t know how to communicate, I have destroyed so many relationships just because of this.
It’s important to learn how to communicate well with people, and not just people you’re in a relationship with but rather everyone. Communication is an integral part of life that cannot be replaced and that’s just facts. There are three stages to communication
*put yourself in their shoes
*think before you talk
*don’t rush to say anything
1. It Just Isn’t Working Out Because It’s Not Meant To Be

It’s important to try to fix your issues and work things out, but at some point if it becomes tiring and toxic, you need to end things for your mental sanity. I know everyone tells you that you can work out anything if you really try but the truth is that sometimes it’s not meant to be. Friendships come to an end, and so do other relationships. You might love each other now but that doesn’t mean you’ll love each other forever.
