Every Marriage relationship goes through all this stages.

The onus is laid upon the partners to work out the relationship anf makes it workable

Unfortunately our role models are the wrong ppl
"Hollywood stars"
If u ever go on Wikipedia n read their profile
One woman that died earlier this year had 6 husbands
And she even married one of them 2 times and divorced him 2 times
When i see relatuonships in naija i just thank God
Most ppl over there just wake up n it will be like scales have fallen off their eyes n they will seek divorce b4 that day is over

Danhumprey:
Justeenaleo, can you relate with these stages?

I can't relate......mine didn't start from stage one and It didn't even start from any of the stages.

Believe you me the sequences of the five stages of relationship you enumerated, especially no.1, which almost other commenters above didn't see anything wrong with it, is the reason why there are so many heartbreaks and divorces everywhere. I wonder how someone can fall in love with another whom he/she haven't known (partner/date) thoroughly. The words "fancy or infatuation" instead of love would have make a better sense to me as your number 1. Love should be a summation of all the other stages/number 5 - it's only a built-up love, one where both parties cherishes each other majorly based on their good attributes and of course fancy (physical attractiveness) too, rather than solely on superficiality (material things), that can stand the test of time - while number 5 in your post become number 6.

Love based on immaterial condition vs love based on selfishness.

- Love based on immaterial condition will always stand the test of time. This is a love that was necessitated majorly by good attributes and of course with fancy (physical attractiveness) too. . . . This is true love. Both parties involved in it can always die for each other when need be, because treachery don't exist in either's life dictionary. To love is to die for - after all one who died for what s/he believes in died a hero/heroine.

- Love based on selfishness is superficial and will always crumble once the material object (e.g. money, fame or class) that hold it wanes off /vanishes. Treachery is always the order of the day here. . . . Heartbreaks and divorces are always imminent.

danhumprey .... this looks a little like it.

Brother, the emboldened almost cost me an amazing relationship tonight. Thank God, I quickly reminded myself, "Don't destroy the very thing you want".

TonyeBarcanista:

Bro, it is actually left for you both to decide. You see most times the fault is usually from both ends. Why not identify your own flaws and work on it while she sort herself? I guess she must also be complaining about something in you.

After you have done this, call/text her that you want to see her, and tell her that you have identified your flaws and promise her that you are determined to kill that thing that makes her unhappy. Then tell her that you meant the sweet promises you made to her etal. Then tell her that you want her more than ever. Wait for her reply!

If she is silent, it is POSITIVE! If she give an express YES, it is also positive. But if she says NO, give her space and time 15-30 days. If she wants you she will be the one to contact you.

thank u bro, I hv done most of d things u suggested above and things hv started improving lately

Well said bro

We are now with a guy who just started their relationship and it is useful for us to read different topics. We love each other very much and we really want to keep the relationship going. At first, I read prayrs.org and I prayed that everything would be fine with us and that I would feel better when I read these prayers. My boyfriend thought I was weird at first but then he realized that I just love him and it's for good reasons. It will be useful for each pair to read this topic and understand in advance how best not to do so as not to be the majority that falls on stage 3.

You are right about the fact that it will be useful for each pair to read this topic and understand in advance how best not to do

Stage 5: Combining Forces To Change The World:

Some couples get stuck in stage 4 (which is fine) but some others move further. They combine the power of two to do one thing together. It could range from being counsellors, engaging in community service, promoting a cause like Bill and Melinda Gate, book writing, politics like the Jonathans and the Obamas, entertainment like Olu Jacob and Joke Silva etc.
