Some Relationships Are Like Unsalted Eggs
Some relationships are like unsalted eggs: tasteless, delicate, anchored in a monotonous situation that drowns in the long run. This is a reality that affects many couples, even though they have already begun to see it as normal, something that may be going to pass.
However, you can change things if you just want to. You can regain your love for an inspiring spring, and move away from fall, which day by day begins to approach winter. Affection does not age as we do. It will only happen if you let it happen. Maybe you’re tired of maintaining and developing it.
We make the mistake of locking in the words of affection, cuddling, and loving. Before, you wanted so badly to show your love for another person. When did you stop doing so, and when did you sink into the comfort that assumptions bring?
Tasteful, aging love
We have heard numerous times that love burns to the end, dying and changing over time. We blame the passage of time to make us feel better. In reality, we just don’t want to take responsibility for what we do.
It is not just about giving up ourselves, but ignoring all that we fought for and experienced passion for years ago. Now that we got it, will we stop the effort? First there was one, then another… Eventually we become two people who allow love to fade into a simple memory.
At this point, the assumptions enter the picture. They bring about understanding in many of our relationships, but most of their impact is seen in romantic relationships. It is better to keep repeating and saying the same things than to take things for granted.
“Why should I tell my husband about my love if he already knows it?” “I don’t have to kiss her, she knows I love her.” “We are too old to show affection in public.” I’m sure some of these ideas are familiar to you. Many couples think the same.
In the past, though, you didn’t care to say “I love you” endless times to your loved one. You always gave him a kiss when he left the door and went to work. You didn’t think about the appropriateness of the situation when you held your partner’s hand or gave him or her unexpected hugs. It just came from you. You wanted to know a partner near you. You wanted to show again and again how much you really care.
We let love die
The flame doesn’t just disappear; we turn it off ourselves. We can continue to turn it off and escape the situation we are in. All this just because we are too lazy to show our partner something that used to be so important to us. Your exhaustion prevents you from investing in something you have already achieved.
Many people give their all in a relationship in the beginning. They are like stuffed balloons. But once they get what they want, they gradually begin to empty until there is nothing left of the former. Are you still wondering why your relationship isn’t as intimate as it used to be? Why has your relationship really changed?
Relationships suffer from a bad attitude. We stop thinking about the other person and focus only on ourselves. We justify our inability to give everything by saying “they already know it.”
