"You worked hard to get it, Work harder to keep it"

I had a conversation with one of my close friends last night, and of course we start talking about love and relationships. He told me that he recently broke up with his girlfriend, I was really surprised because they always seemed happy. As we got deeper into our conversation he began to explain the problems in their relationship. Basically the issues was that his ex girlfriend worked hard to get him but didn't work hard to keep him. When he said this I automatically understood why he had to break up with her. Usually, when you first meet someone they say and do things to impress you and prove to you that they're different. Before you get into a relationship with that person he/she gives you many reasons as to why you should be with him/her. Once that person gets into a relationship with you they no longer do the things that they did to get you. Listening to my friend talk about his problems helped me understand why so many relationships fail. Everyone (well not everyone) wants to be in a relationship but no one wants to work hard to stay in a relationship. No relationship is perfect but if it's worth it then do what you have to do to keep your significant other, because once he/she is gone you'll be the one left with regrets.
