How To Make Your Relationship Last Long! by ichommy(m): 2:38pm On Mar 29, 2010
Many guys cannot keep their relationship for long. They find it difficult to make their relationship last as long as possible. For guys in this category, they wonder why other guys are so lucky.

Do you realise that the ability to be able to keep your relationship, make it last or make it what you want could have nothing to do with luck? It could be as a result of some things you do unconsciously.

Why don’t you take a look at some of these points. See if you are gulity and make amends.

It is easy to believe that all women are crazy: They don’t understand you, they don’t know what they want, and series of other accusations. But it is more likely that the cause of your frequent relationship failures is in fact you! You probably might be the case girls dump you always.

You may not be a bad guy, you probably might be stuck in a cycle of bad decisions and bad behaviour. For example, a man might get dumped because he is too clingy. The irony however is that, getting dumped will only make this particular guy, cling more to the next girl. Then what happens again in his next relationship, he gets dumped again, and again, and again. It really is a vicious cycle.

If you’re trying to figure out why you got dumped - again, read on and see if any of these guys sound at all like you.You cling too much.

It is good to be enthusiastic about your relationship. Girlfriends appreciate your appreciation, but make no mistake about it, there is a clinginess line and you can cross it.


Recognise that being clingy may be the result of enthusiasm and infatuation, or it might be a kind of defence mechanism. Ask yourself if you’re holding on to your girlfriend simply because you’ve been dumped before and you’re worried about getting dumped again. If the answer is “yes,” you need to break the cycle so you don’t get dumped - again. Remember, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Are you jealous?

A little bit of jealousy is normal; picking a fight every time she talks to another man is not. If your girlfriend consistently accuse you of being too jealous, you might have trust issues. Did a previous partner cheat on you? Does the memory of that betrayal affect the way you behave in your current relationship?

Keep in mind that not every woman is unfaithful, but unreasonable jealousy is enough to drive just about every woman out of your life and into a relationship with someone else.
You’re too nice.

Does this sound familiar?Do you try to impress and please your girlfriend by being as nice as you possibly can be. You don’t complain, you don’t argue and, don’t ever raise your voice.Then, when she leaves you for another guy you respond by being even nicer to the next girl you date, this however does not stop you from being dumped - again.

It, however, does not mean that you become tough, but you need a backbone, get some self-respect. This will help you have more relationship success.You invest too much emotionally Investing too much emotionally is another possible reason your girlfriends leave always. As your friends pair up and you keep struggling to find that special someone, you might be scared about being alone. Consequently, in each new relationship you almost immediately start wondering if she is the special one.

As the perfect match continues to elude you, you become increasingly sure that finding the right girl is the only way you will ever be happy. This is the kind of mindset that puts too much pressure on your partners, ultimately dooming the relationship before it starts.

The duration and blissfulness of any relationship is not achieved in a platter of gold, it is a child born of sacrifice. These may be small sacrifices or big sacrifices depending on the individuals and prevailing circumstances surrounding them. If you must enjoy a lasting relationship of blissful occurrencies, you must be determined to pay the price for long lasting and fulfilling relationship.

When you put all these into practice, you shall be able to have a lasting relationship. But anyone who ignores it shall walk a lonely and frustrating path.
