kolleamm Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Try to imagine your best version of a relationship and describe every detail you possibly can. Conversations, interactions, how you two would wake up in the morning, everything. 3 2 1...go! Link to post Share on other sites

Tayla Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 well firstly, I'd wake up by myself...Cuz, well, I love freedom! Now as to the relationship aspect...from which path? From the friendship path? The sibling path? The mentor path? The significant other? You sort of have to be a wee bit more specific in order for folks to give that "great"relationship response. One thing does permeate though through each one that I have experienced....a sense of humor, intellect, regard, admiration, and differences that compliment. Remaining a student at times in the classroom of life...and sometimes Stepping it up and being that rock for the person who needs a sounding board..... Link to post Share on other sites

basil67 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 exactly...people don't know what the hell they want haha Sure, I could describe my relationship, but the answer is too long to type into an iPhone. Your lack of answers is most likely because it would take an essay to answer the question to the depth you require. When asking a stranger to do something for you, it's best not to ask for something which takes a long amount of time. How about breaking your question down? Post a different question each few days. If the answer isn't overwhelming, you'll get more responses. Lastly, if you're strggling with relationships, this thread already gives clues as to the reason. Link to post Share on other sites
Tayla Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I think my asking for clarification was warranted. and my answer applies none the less to your "romantic one of course!" Link to post Share on other sites

Eternal Sunshine Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 A romantic one of course! You don't wake up with your mentor in bed with you in the morning! haha Why is the romantic one "of course"? It's like people invalidate all other relationships except for romantic ones. There is no "of course". My closest and most fullfiling relationships have been of the non-romantic kind.

GunslingerRoland Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Try to imagine your best version of a relationship and describe every detail you possibly can. Conversations, interactions, how you two would wake up in the morning, everything. 3 2 1...go! No two people are the same so no two relationships are the same. I start work early so I wake up before my wife... what does that have to do with my relationship. Here are the keys: You should bring out the best in each other. Everyone always talks about finding someone that makes them happy. I think that's overrated because happiness comes from inside, and there are many things that can make me temporarily happy but aren't good for me. A lot of people use that reasoning to be with someone who they have fun times with but it's really crappy for both people. So focus on finding someone who brings out your positives and visa versa. You should always be respectful to one another. You should ever need to have fights where you yell and scream and call each other names. This is NOT a normal part of a relationship or having an argument. Link to post Share on other sites
GravityMan Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 If both people are happy with each other and happy with themselves and their lives...then it's probably safe to say that their relationship is great. Anything more specific than that is very subjective. And therefore would be of little or no usefulness to the OP. I sense a "live vicariously through others" vibe from you, OP. That's not a good thing. Link to post Share on other sites
