Remember this, you can’t stop problems from cropping up in a relationship no matter how perfect the relationship is. What you can doinstead, is eliminate the frustration as soon as you notice them.

#1 Lack of communication.At the start of the relationship, conversations are exciting and fun. Both of you spend a lot of time getting to know each other. But as time goes by, lovers forget to ask the same questions again.We’re all changing all the time, in our preferences and the way we look at life. Don’t assume you know everything about each other or your romance will start to stagnate,or one of you will start to confide insome other person who seems more understanding.
#2 Trust.Do you really trust your partner? There are two kinds of trust in a relationship. Firstly, do you trust your partner enough to feel comfortable with them going out for dinner with someone else? If you don’t, perhaps, you’re insecure or your relationship is stilltoo fragile.And secondly, do you trust your partner’s decisions? Do you think your partner is capable of making important decisions for the both of you? If you can’t trust your partner with life altering decisions, it’s obvious that you don’t respect your partner or their opinions. And that’snever a good sign in a long term relationship.
#3 Jealousy and insecurity.Insecurecouples are forever locked in a cycle of jealously and anger. When you feel jealous about the attention your lover’s getting or their recent promotion, you’re not helping thembecome a better individual. It’s like a parent who’s angry with their child because the child is having “too much fun”.You need to learn to have faith in each other and in the relationship. Instead of letting negativity build inside the relationship, learn to enjoy each other’s successes. After all, your partner is your better half, and any accomplishments of theirs are your accomplishments too, isn’tit?
#4 Incompatibility in love.Love at first sight and infatuation can last several months. And it does a good job of masking any differences in a relationship. As perfect as two people may be, sometimes, they may just not be perfect for each other.If you find yourself dating someonewith whom you have nothing in common, you need to decide on thenext step. Try to find common interests that both of you like, or walk your own paths instead of living in frustrations.
#5 Loss of sex drive.This isn’t rocket science. Over time, both of you are bound to lose the sexual urge of the first few months or years of a relationship. While both of you may have a hard time keeping your hands off each other to begin with, now sex may start to feel like a chore.This is a very common problem in relationships, and yet, it’s one of the easy ones to solve. Always look for new ways to recreate the sexualhigh of the first few times, and before you know it, both of you maygo at it all over again like frisky bunnies.

#6 Ka ching!Anyone in a relationship for long enough will know just how important money or the lack of it really is. If your friendsearn a lot more than you or your partner, it’ll end up frustrating both of you. And on the other hand, if both of you earn a lot more than your friends, there’ll be a lot of loveand happiness in your lives.It’s a stupid fact of life. But our own happiness is extremely dependent on the way others perceive us. If you’re having difficulties in your relationship because of money, perhaps it’s time to change your friends and see the difference.
#7 Change in priorities.You may be in a relationship, but that doesn’t change who you are. And that’s where the problem starts. As individuals, we evolve and change all the time. You’re not the person you were last year, and you won’t be the person you are now next year.And just like you, your partner too is changing constantly. And every now and then, you and your partner may experience changes that will pull both of you apart fromeach other. And soon enough, both of you may have nothing in common. Spend enough time with each other and try to evolve together in a similar direction. Talk about your beliefs and your interests with each other and it’ll help both of you grow together along the same path.
#8 Time.Do both of you have enough time to spend with each other? These days, time is a luxury that most lovers can’t afford. When you start spending too much time away from each other, it’s only a matter of time before one of you starts asking the big question, “Do I need my partner in my life anymore?”Don’t drift away so far that both of you don’t need to be with each other anymore. Find ways to indulge in exciting hobbies or spend evenings going out on little coffee or ice cream dates. They make for great conversations and it’ll bring both of you closer too.
#9 Space and individual growth.Now this is contradictory to the earlier problem in relationships. But it’s still something to watch out for. Too much of a good thing can turn out to be bad too. When you’rein a relationship, spending time with each other is very important. But at the same time, spending time away from each other is crucial too.By spending too much time together, you’d subconsciously feel isolated from the rest of the world. And when that happens, you’d crave for any attention from other interesting people just to feel betterabout yourself and your ability to communicate. And you know what could happen when that happens, right?
#10 Are you still in love?This is the biggest problem in a relationship, and one that’s hardest to overcome.Falling in love is easy. Staying in love isn’t. Love is a delicate balance between dependency and passion. How much do you need your partner? How much do you love and want your partner?




When the sexual excitement and the enthusiasm fade away, what do you have to hold both of you together? A relationship should never be based on sex alone. It needs compatibility and understanding, and it definitely needs dependability. Staying in loveforever is not easy, but with a little effort, it can give meaning to your life.
