NGC1300 Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 This goes for marriage too. Isn't it safe to say that no matter who you're involved with, no matter how well things seem to be going, the reality is that they won't be in your life forever? Sure there's plenty of exceptions. My parents have been married for over 30 years, but even my dad has acknowledged that most men would not have stuck it out with my mother. Is it unhealthy to regard relationships in the modern era as temporary?

Is it unhealthy to regard relationships in the modern era as temporary? is all employment part time .......no not all relationships are temporary, if you are selective you find that permanent one.....what it takes to keep it going is if you are honest in your attraction to that person, if you want it to work, and you are willign to stay in it.....all leads to permanant...not being attracted to soemone is a recipe for heartache and part time love.....the best recipe for a relationship to fail i sto go into it knowing you dotn feel a connection and that included physical ........thats what you do when you give up on love..and i have thought about just that when i think a permanant love wasnt meant for me.......deb
MrCastle Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 I believe they are temporary in this day and age, yes. I think the older generations felt a sense of tradition. You couldn't get divorced because, well, people just didn't get divorced. You just didn't do that. You married your high school sweetheart and that was the end of it. That was the social construct. Now with the world being more liberal, people are like "wait, I can break up/divorce and won't be judged for it? Awesome!" People are realizing you are free to do what you want, if you're unhappy in a relationship, you can leave.
