I know this is an old issue but I believe we underestimate the damage politicians do with badly thought out legislation especially when it comes to income,taxation,and poverty.
They certainly don't help.

Goverements make bad decisions and some of those decisions impact on families that are already on the edge.

Relationships fail for two reasons, possibly a third, as well. First communication stops. The two individuals are not listening to one another any more. The second item is trust. Usually communication stops because trust has been damaged. Re-establishing trust again is very difficult if it is to last, and without trust there will be no relationship. And there is possibly one last item - money. Securing a way to earn a living and establish a cash flow - if that dries up, often the relationship will dry up also. I do not mention fidelity, because I feel that is a trust issue. So: Communication, Trust, Money.

In tghis world everything is supposed to be perfect. We order a sandwich at a restaurant and if it isn't perfect we complain and return it. Men and women are supposed to work to keep a relationship together but our children and grandchildren watch movies where the man/woman meet someone who is either perfect or they ditch them for someone else. There is no working on anything today. Relationships are very important as people are. We must keep a constant conversation going and care for one another. GOD should be a big part of that relationship. My wife and I have been married for over thrity years and we have been Christians for over twenty. She is the greatest thing in this world. Have a great weekend and a wonderful Lord's Day.
Thanks,

We've been happily married 36 years, and I guarantee you, some of the key elements of a successful relationship - married or otherwise - are:
1) A long list of common interests; things you both enjoy doing TOGETHER as opposed to separate interests and separate groups of friends.
2) A lot of tolerance for each other's differences. As much as you share in common, you're still going to rub one another wrong from time to time. Be mature and deal with it. Separate the small $h!t from the serious stuff.
3) A sense of compromise; so that you can work out your problems with a minimum of emotional trauma. It's marital negotiation.
4) A sense of sympathy and forgiveness. You're both going to screw up on occasion. You need to be able to forgive, forget, and move on with the relationship.

1) Because people rush into relationships without first getting to really know someone before being deeply involved with them. Lots of times people learn during the marriage instead of BEFORE that they don't really like this person they're with, after all. Or maybe they just discover they are just not on the same page with each other...different beliefs, different goals in life instead of a partnership working toward the same plans.
2) Lack of communication...inability to express feelings, thoughts.
3) Lack of self-respect or respect for each other.
4) Laziness, apathy.
5) Lack of empathy for each other.
6) Lack of attentiveness.
7) Lack of interest due to changes in each others' attitudes towards each other or life and things in life.
8) Issues with money...one or both over-spending and causing debt and in turn, causing stress on the relationship.
9) Romantic and sexual issues.
10) Lack of liking each other or lack of love.
11) Temptation from outside sources...other people, drugs, alcohol, gambling, whatever...leading to infidelity or mistrust in the relationship...or codependency issues.
12) Mental issues/illnesses/personality disorders discovered later in the relationship...which sometimes prevents it from continuing because of the mental person's inability to actually carry out a relationship or fully function in life and love.
Lord...the list could go on and on. There are millions of reasons why relationships fail. Usually it's a combination of many of these listed here.

Good grief you cant blame the government for failed relationships. A relationship is two people who have to work at being together and understanding where each other is coming from.

So many relationships fail because they are lacking something. Sex is very important in a person's marriage. If you don't have sex believe me that spouse that is wanting sex will leave and get it from somewhere else. This involves both sex. Not just a man!!

First of all what in the heck are you asking?
Secondly I think one of the biggest reason's relationship's fail
is lack of communication and cheating and financial problems especially in marriage.

I think relationships fail due to lack of communication.One doesnt talk and one doesnt listen. Nothing is ever resolved. Also we need to understand that we dont all think the same and this doesnt mean any one is right or wrong. Its never easy !

In the early stages:
Lack of knowledge about each other.
Unreasonably high expectations, possibly fuelled by the media.
