Real Answers for Real Relationships

Reality Check - RELATIONSHIPS ARE HARD!

Not that we've got that out of they way . . . let's try to make them not so hard.

What is a relationship? Webster's Dictionary defined a relationship as

I define it as how two people act towards, feel, think, and speak to each other. Or if you're a math person:
Person 1 x Person 2 = a relationship

Simple right? Then what makes relationships so hard. The answer is simple - YOU.

No, you are not always the problem (you already knew that right?) but you, me, them, us, we are the problem because we are people. People are imperfect and flawed (yes, even you). Here is some math for you again:
flawed person 1 x flawed person 2 = flawed squared (a.k.a flawed relationship = hard)

The solutions comes from acknowledging and recognizing our flaws, knowing other's limitations and learning how to deal and operate with in those limits.
