Why
Why are relationships so challenging? I ask this as I observe several around me in turmoil.
For me, it seems obvious… they simply won’t work if BOTH people aren’t invested and willing to do the work. But so often, it seems there’s an unequal amount of investment from the parties involved and this leads to confusion, hurt feelings, loneliness, and disillusionment, among many other emotions.
Are we destined to be in pain, if paired-up? Or choose a life of singlehood in an attempt to avoid the pain, only to find pain in that very state.
Who knows?
