why do relationships always start off good and then go sour at times?

Answer 1

In the beginning people are usually not comfortable totally being theirselves. Once they let their guard down things change. Also once they feel they have you, they usually don't make an effort to keep the relationship interesting. People also let themselves go after awhile, seeing no reason to take care of themselves and making theirselves look good for their loved one. People get bored or discover that the person is no longer the same person or perhaps never was the person that they thought they were.

Answer 2

Because the "newness " wears off for some people and it is not as exciting as it once was. But really it just depends on the people if the relationship is going to go sour and stay sour. But as human beings, we can't be perfect all of the time. We may appear that way to someone at first, but the longer they are around the more flaws they discover. It is if they stick around through the sweet, and the sour that shows how much they care.

Answer 3

No matter how many answers you get on this question the reality is almost everyone in every relationship will eventually revert to base selfishness and ask more of the other person than they are willing or able to give at that moment. The relationships that do survive and grow, are because the questionee is able to forgive the questioneer for being such a dolt.

Answer 4

Maybe I'm wrong, but i think people get lazy after they have won the battle of finding a relationship. Try to notice what you and your partner were doing while the sexual tension is high. Also, people become far to dependent on the other person. Keep doing your own thing. The other person needs to say "I miss you!"

Edit: After looking at everyone Else's answers, they are pessimistic banter. Their advice is not going to lead to any successful relationship. Learn what causes that tension. Seriously.

Answer 6

cause the newness and excitement of the chase is gone, and when we reach the comfortable stage in a relationship it seems boring when we arnt getting that adrenaline rush from the attraction stage of a relationship anymore. kinda like your first high from (WHATEVER) you never can reach that peak of the first few times agian and you need more to get it but with the same ole same ole its not going to happen we all keep seeking to find that someone and when we do we feel its over when it gets comfortable and go out looking again!!

Answer 7

Relationships start good because we always put our best foot forward. We are out to impress the other person. As we get accustom to the other person, we tend to relax and let things happen. We because upset because we thing that person has just started changing but in all honesty, they are being themselves. They changed to get you to like them to begin with.

Answer 9

Because a relationship is constant work. Each has to be able to talk, share, help the other, etc. People get lazy after awhile, and take each other for granted.

Answer 10

Relationship is a lot of hard work + compromise = commitment. Late in a relationship we stop trying so hard to maintain it and take things for granted.
