Why more relationships don't last long

Now days more and more people are finding it harder to have lasting relationships.

With everyone thinking microwave living, this concept has spilled over into our relationships, only to find more people in and out of relationships more times then they want to count.

In the fast pace world that we live in, with technology changing everyday, people lives have gotten caught up in this wave as well. More and more people are caught up in the concept fast is better.
Let's just do this, if it don't work out then we just move on. With this thinking, more people,relationships,and family structures have been damaged more then ever before.

Commitments are considered a good thing only when we are having fun.

Seems no one want to take the time to get to know each other, and make better decisions on the people they bring into their lives.

Long gone, are the time when people would take months to get to know each other, rather than days and weeks. There's a big price to be paid in most microwave relationships, that could have been avoided.

Value based relationships have been lost somewhere along the way. When our values we hold are lost, so is the respect we carry with those values are gone.


When deciding to engage in new relationships, or building old ones, we have to start asking our selves what do we value most. You don't have to let go of your values just to be with someone.
This should be the starting point in which a person get to know you, not the last thing they learn about you .

Keeping your values can create more lasting, loving relationships.
