There are times when I’ve wondered what my purpose in life was, if my life mattered to those around me and if I could find the meaning of what my life meant. I consider myself a deep thinker. I also like to figure out problems and puzzles. I’ve had times when I was not connected to myself or others let alone my partner in my relationship.

Some men and women first getting into a relationship want to ensure that it stays fun and exciting, but there are times when the unexpected happens or one or both people in the relationship loses hope of overcoming problems that come along the way. Sometimes we don’t know what to do or we want to just get past the bad parts and the negative things that come along. When we can’t get over unexpected hurdles and obstacles as quick as we wanted, it makes us feel defeated and hopeless.

If there is a couple that has been doing the same routines and activities for years upon years, there may be a lack of inspiration or a lack of appreciation for what he or she has. Everything may seem old and uninspired. The newness has worn off. Habits have been formed. There could be hard feelings about wasted time or feelings of regret from not feeling good all the time in the relationship.

Sometimes when our minds wander into the past and we change what we would have done, we think the outcomes will be different. Things could have turned out worse for all we know.

Taking vacations or small trips to different areas that you hadn’t been before creates new experiences. It will force you and your partner to leave your comfort zone and adapt. It will help you to bond by knowing that your partner is by your side through it all. If you experience something unpleasant, your partner is there to support you.

Sometimes we have unrealistic expectations about the way our relationship turns out if we do not recognize our partner’s energy and who our partner is to begin with.

Knowing and recognizing who your partner is will save you a lot of trouble in the end. Wishing and dreaming that your partner will someday handle things differently and be a different person if you are there for him or her is unrealistic. Change is amazing and can happen only if your partner takes actions to make it happen, but you cannot force change upon him or her.

Look for new ways of doing things in your relationship. Show you care. Make the other person matter. Some people do not know how, but if you try, you will get closer just by listening and paying attention. Make the most out of what you have and your resources.
