Trying!!!

Have you ever felt like when you have a certain type of relationship with somebody, you tend to try more than normal or make yourself too available? Like you are willing to do any and everything in your power to make another person happy and yet it doesn't seem like it gets you anywhere. Having someone tell you that they appreciate you compared to feeling appreciated are two different things. It is as if they do not realize everything you do for them big or small based off their actions. Actions do speak louder than words on so many levels.

Whether the relationship is like, lust, or love, something keeps you trying. People believe in love at first sight, but how do they really know that it was love instead of like or lust. If you start off a relationship believing its love but in all reality its lust you are doomed. If you are under the mindset or even convinced yourself that it is love, you are in for temporary happiness. Once you really know what you are getting yourself into then you proceed.

What is it that keeps you trying though? It could be the way you feel for that person and you are looking for that to be reciprocated. Like the way you feel could have you looking stupid when it's all said and done. In many situations you may have felt like throwing in the towel, but something kept you there. It could just be the idea of having that relationship or what the relationship means to you. Just think about it.

That Feeling....

Have you ever been in a relationship where you give your all and it seems like its a slap in the face?

Like you do everything in your power to satisfy that person and it still blows up in your face. When you first get in a relationship with somebody, what is that based off of? Could it be the initial connection that you both shared or something more? Then when everything hits the fan, what keeps the both of you together?

I believe that a factor in these certain situations is misunderstanding coming from both people. If you could understand where a person is coming from and vice-versa that could possibly have a different outcome. Communication is key!

Attitudes are another thing that I think play a huge role in bad situations happening in relationships. You have people that once they get an attitude everything goes downhill from there. Simply because they are so caught up in their emotions while trying to release that built up feeling in any way possible. Saying hurtful things, doing hurtful things, and even acting a certain can be results from having an attitude.

Trying to think of why things are happening can get overwhelming. Therefore you need to find coping mechanisms to help alleviate that feeling of being overwhelmed.
