I'm conducting study to try and find the real reason why relationships fail. So far I believe it is because both parties found each other based strongly on physical attraction and not personality. If you can't connect with a person personality wise then all you can really do is stare at each other and admire your looks and the realtionship goes no where. Also when you go strictly by looks you limit your field greatly for finding your true love.

As you are doing a study you will have noticed there are lots and lots of studies on why relationships fail and why they don't. You will notice that dissatisfying relationships are no more common in areas where couples have arranged marriages as to where people choose their own mate.
Relationships work because people make a mutual decision to make them work. Simple as that. Both give and both take.
It has nothing to do with looks. Gorgeous people can have just as successful relationships as unattractive people. Including those who selected their mate based on their looks.
Maybe people do that because they want good looking prodigy.:)

Hi there!!!
There are studies that indicate that when a couple meet, things like thier personal scent and also something with their genes, ( I saw this on one of the health channels) also play a very important role in selection. It is as if we know who we are compatabil to reproduce.
Then you have the physical attraction, which could be instantly, and while some people act upon this , without getting time to really know if they are compatible, they begin a relationship with lust many times. All though I have met people that meet like this, and still are together today.
I believe deep within that in order for a relationship to work, and endure all of the tribulations that will arise walking this journey we call life, we have to compromise, we have to be flexible without losing who we are in essence as a person though.
We should allow ourselves to see the beauty in everyone, for no one is ugly, we all have something beautiful.( Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder they say)
And like you said many may lose out in finding their match if strictly looking for a certain prototype of person.
relationships are very complex, they are like a garden that needs attention to grow, it needs many things to continue growing and flourishing.
I hope this can help you a bit along with all the answers you receive.
Love light and peace

your on to something.... but its not the whole picture.... is some parts of the world the couple dont see each other till the wedding day.... is the divorce rate lower because they learned to love eachother... or because society frowns on divorce there....
what about the fact that people change? to change in such a way that you still compatible after 50 years is hard... or peoples expectations that a relationship will make them feel happy all the time.... its damn hard work... has ups and downs... i think its many things.

Sometimes love starts when you're attracted on the inside (interests, etc) and overtime the friendship can grow.:)

or when you first are attracted, you hve lots of sex, and then she starts cutting you off, and you wonder why, and things get strained.
