They say true relationships take a lot of work, and I believe this to be so. If relationships didn’t take time & effort would they truly be worth having??? ….. I think not! (I don’t believe in the so called perfect relationship) Any Thoughts???

I so agree with you on this. You are right. There is no "perfect relationship". Everything you do in a relationship is work and if you work it right, you will have a great one. I failed at that in my first marriage. Won't do it again! Time and effort on both parts is what keeps a marriage strong and going.

First let's say a relationship takes a lot of working together, sharing and caring not "work" when you look at it like work it becomes a job. A relationship is a union of two people who love and care about one another. Yes, it takes working together a lot of togetherness. One mind, one body, one soul when you come together and use your collective talents to work toward a united goal. When one partner disregards the needs of the other for there own needs this is not working together, partnership is two people reaching for the same goals, dreams and outcome. Both must contribute inorder to get positive results, if not then the relationship will become one sided and eventually fail. You can make a relationship as perfect as you are and how much you both contribute to make it perfect for both of you.

of course there is no such thing as a perfect relationship. that is because there are no perfect people. what you need to do, if make that relationship work for you. yes relationships are work. a damn full time job with no paid overtime. but when you love someone, you don't mind putting in the extra hours. as long as you are not the only one showing up for the job

I can see where being the only one putting in work can be very overwhelming. Thanks.
