What makes a relationship last?
Is it tolerance? Patience? Communication, Compromise?
Look at any relationship from the outside be it the perfect recount on social media or the dream couple in your inner circle and you won’t see the cracks. The arguments, the pet peeves, the lack of s-x. But the truth is, it’s only natural to compare and question whether you and your partner truly have a future together.
So, what are the clearest indicators your relationship is destined for failure?
5 signs your relationship is destined to fail
1. YOUR PARTNER DOESN’T MEET YOUR NEEDS
Though your partner definitely can’t meet your every need, there are certain relationship needs your partner is expected to meet. Your partner is expected to communicate regularly, support you and cheer you up when you are down. If your partner can’t meet your basic relationship needs, then your relationship has no future.
2. YOUR PARTNER PUTS IN NO EFFORT INTO MAKING THE RELATIONSHIP WORK
If your partner puts in no effort into making the relationship work, your relationship has no future. Both partners in a relationship are expected to put in an equal amount of effort into making the relationship work. If your partner doesn’t care enough to meet you halfway, then your relationship has no future.
3. YOUR RELATIONSHIP LACKS TRUST
Your relationship has no future if you and your partner struggle to trust each other. Trust is an important ingredient in every relationship. There’s no point being in a relationship with someone you don’t trust or someone who doesn’t trust you because that relationship certainly has no future.
4. YOU BOTH WANT DIFFERENT THINGS
Your relationship can’t have a future if you and your partner both want different things. If you are ready to settle down and your partner isn’t even interested in settling down, your relationship may encounter problems.
5. YOUR PARTNER DOESN’T ACCEPT YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE
If your partner doesn’t accept you for who you are, it is really a read flag. We all have our good and bad traits and a partner who has a future with you will accept your flaws.
