Relationships.
Tommy & I have been together for 4 years now. And it is not always easy. There are times when things are just on down side and other times when its on high heat. I'm not saying I'm an expert in relationships because I know a few friends of mine whom have been together this long as well or even longer but I'm writing this for my dear best friend.
Relationships do not just flow, and do not just "work out". Once in a relationship there are going to be times of doubt, confusion. In order to make a relationship work (for my case anyway) is honesty, and the willingness to make something work. A relationship will not work when it is too much of anything on any one person's side. A balance is always needed. We find it helpful to set up 'guidelines' in a relationship. For us, we said to each other that no matter what it is we have to be honest and truthful to each other even if it hurts the other person, because we both know the truth always comes out and when people leave things unsaid for too long it will just hurt the other person even more when they find out.
Every relationship is different, and everyone deals with things their own way. My boyfriend and I are still working out what annoys us and what ticks us off and its all a learning process. Yes, there will be times when you want to pull each other's heads off but its the way you both deal with situations and how you both move forward from these downfalls that makes the relationship grown stronger.
What makes a relationship special is taking things slow and steady, because as people say the faster you fall in love the faster you fall out of love. When all the lust and butterflies start fading don't think that you guys don't love each other any more, don't freak out. It's just things are starting to cool down and you guys are slowly coming out of your enclosed "bubble" (where all you can see is each other and no one else). It is then you will know if you guys are really meant to be because THEN you will have to start working at your relationship, dealing with things together, dealing WITH each other. Yeah at times you guys will take each other for granted, and sometimes you might feel like your just friends and yeah maybe there will be times when you guys ask each other "are we meant to be together?" but sometimes you need a little kick in the butt to notice how much you guys love each other in order to get back on the wagon.
No relationship is perfect. Everyone has their flaws, its all about compromising and understanding each other's needs, wants, and dislikes.
So yeah, there is no need to rush to find the right guy/ girl, s/he will come along and its normally the one who will wait for you till the end because you're worth it.
