An example of what I just said is my best mate never got along with his mum and dad, but now that he no longer lives at home, when he visits he gets along really well with them and they enjoy time together because it's not constant.- Mark as New

8.What is one thing we would all appreciate when being in a relationship with a friend, parent, partner, sibling, basically ANYONE, and why?Knowing boundaries and having some distance. I know an old friend of mine used to text me 24/7, literally all day everyday and I felt like it was a bit much to take in. If I didn't reply I coped it from them. So I think to keep things good, there needs to be time wfhere you are not communicating, so that when you do, it's something to look forward to

@j95 Knowing and respecting boundaries is incredibly important in maintaining a solid relationship, and this comes from open and honest communication 🙂

@j95 I've had someone do something similar to me and I think that know when and where to say things is important but on the flip side that if things don't change regardsless of time, then it's best not to speak in the long run

7.How can we, as a community, help each other in dealing with loss and self-doubt?Be the ear someone needs or the phone number they know they can call. But don't take on too much either, sometimes having someone rely on you too much is harmful

I think there is a point where it feels impossible to leave a relationship no matter how terrible the relationship makes you feel, there is a point you get to that you feel it's too late to call it quits, so you've just got to deal with it. Which is sad really. Honestly I got to that point in a recent relationship and I keep patching the holes up but it never worked and all fell apart.

@j95 Yep, I feel that too sometimes. And then you kick yourself up about it. But I think it gives more self-awareness on how we hope for the best on improving our relationships.
Stay excellent

@j95 I honestly know how you feel. I myself was a culprit of that myself. Things did fall apart and I guess I learnt from that. So yeh I guess its always important to be in check and see where the relationship is headed... and guide that hope you have to no let go in the right direction.. if that makes sense!- Mark as New

You usually change with each other so you don't notice, but if you do notice a change occurring you should talk about it, meet them half way. Maybe they are going through something that they find embarrassing to tell people. Just talk it out, see if you can help in any way. But sometimes, people change for the worse. You just need to look at the signs and decide whether to stay or get out of the relationship.
My entire life can be described in one sentence: It didn't go as planned and that's okay. ツ

@stonepixie that's an interesting thought- changing with the other person and not noticing 🙂

@Student94 Well you end up spending more time around these people so you pick up each others mannerisms and you experience things together that change who you are as a person.My entire life can be described in one sentence: It didn't go as planned and that's okay. ツ

@Student94 not to mention that each relationship you have whether it be good or bad, challenges you as a person. You continue to learn and change all the time. Like Alice says, but I'm a different person to the one I woke up today as. Or something like that. (Alice in Wonderland)My entire life can be described in one sentence: It didn't go as planned and that's okay. ツ

@Student94 I think that can happen unconsciously because we do want to please the opposite person in the relationship or make sure things work out. Or even, we might look up to them and get inspired to change and do things differently once they start..- Mark as New

This can be a really tricky one to deal with. I think the best thing is to remember why you began the relationship in the first place, and if the changes don't affect this too much then it's worth being flexible and open and working around any changes to maintain the relationship 🙂 But sometimes people change a lot and relationships drift, this isn't a bad thing it's just something that needs to be recognised and accepted.

Knowing your boundaries, treating each other with respect. Just being present and caring and loving. 🙂

Respecting yourself before you respect anyone else. Oh and that if someone doesn't like something about you (something they want to change) then they aren't worth having you 🙂

@Nat8 It's very important to stay true to who you are 🙂 Of course you can compromise in a relationship but never let it change something you value about yourself!
