      Conclusion

      Introduction

      As we all know, almost every woman out there wants to be able to meet the man of their dreams and to develop a long and healthy relationship with their chosen partner.

      Of course, we also know that not every relationship takes its turn for the best. Some couples manage to last together through the course of their lifetime without many difficulties while others will end up parting ways, looking for another partner that they can bring themselves to depend on.

      Unfortunately, not every woman has the same luck of finding their significant other compared to the next woman out there.

      Some go through great efforts to find the one man that they are most compatible with while others can easily attract a crowd of men to their side and decide the one they want from there.

      Nevertheless, you should not be discouraged simply because you cannot find your significant other as quick as other women can.

      In fact, most women who rush into a relationship end up being hurt in the process, especially when rejection can be right around the corner.

      However, I’m not saying that you should remain still in one place and wait until your significant other comes to you.

      No, this is reality not a fictional fairy tale. You won’t be very successful if you allow yourself to wait for someone to come by and sweep you off your feet.

      Even so, having a prince charming in your life doesn’t necessarily mean that you would still find him charming after a few months or years of dating.

      This book will tell you the basics of what you should know about being in a relationship as well as maintaining that relationship.

      So for those who are struggling to find yourself a significant other, or to simply want to better understand how to maintain your relationship, then don’t hesitate to flip the pages and start reading.

      The Basics

      Before we start on the topic of how to maintain your relationship, let’s start on the topic of what you should know about being in a relationship.

      As most people know, relationships are difficult. Even in stories, or movies, there are tears, breakups, and pain.

      Yet, unlike reality, most romance stories and movies end with a happy ending. Unfortunately, reality is like a tragedy.

      You won’t always get to be with the person that you want to be with no matter how hard you try to maintain the connection between you two.

      Sometimes, breakups are a good aspect of a relationship because it allows you to grow as an individual. It’ll allow you to think about what went wrong in the past relationship so you can better improve in the next one.

      If a relationship isn’t meant to be then you shouldn't force to be. Meaning that if there is nothing else left for you and your partner to do in a relationship, there is no point in continuing it.

      If you’re trying to hold on to someone who is preparing himself to leave then I can only say that you are making a useless and thoughtless decision.

      It’s useless because your partner can no longer see you as someone he can spend the rest of his life with no matter how hard to try to persuade him.

      It’s thoughtless because all you're doing is dragging him down and stopping him from finding someone else who he could feel comfortable with.

      Of course, it’s not an easy thing to do, but, at the same time, you are also dragging yourself down by trying to cling onto him when you can also find someone else who would match you better than he would. Even if you deny it and say, “He’s the one”, in the end, there are other ones who are better.
