You Have To Come To Terms With These Tough Relationship Truths In Order To Find Your Person
There are a lot of people who have been single for a while and are so desperate to be in a relationship that they have a hard time once they enter a relationship and discover it’s not ideal.
Relationships aren’t always a walk in the park; they take a lot of work, and there are some hard truths you have to face once you’re in one. Of course, having a happy relationship with little to no issues is possible, but no one is perfect.
To open yourself up to the possibility of true love and stable companionship, here are a few ‘relationship truths’ you should be aware of.
Not everything is going to fall into place when you’re in a relationship
As someone who was single for most of her young adult life, when I finally entered a relationship, I had this sort of naive understanding that all of my problems would be solved if I had a boyfriend and was happy. However, that is not the case.
The problems you had that didn’t pertain to your relationship will likely remain there once you enter one. The only difference is that now you have a partner who can potentially help you with those problems.
Accept that not everyone is going to like you
It can be a harsh blow when you don’t get rejected often, and then you do when you’re trying to date someone.
Being rejected by someone you want to start a relationship with can be heartbreaking, but it’s moments like those in which you have to remember that you can’t be everyone’s ‘cup of tea.’ Just because you get rejected by one person doesn’t mean you won’t find another.

You have to love yourself to love someone else
It sounds corny, but it really is true. While you don’t have to have everything together and think you’re the most fabulous person on Earth, you need to be able to accept and respect yourself, or else you’ll risk entering a relationship with someone who doesn’t.
In order to be a better partner and find someone who is a great match, you need to be sure of yourself and know how to love and take care of yourself.
Unfortunately, people who are toxic partners tend to prey on those who lack self-confidence and are riddled with insecurity. Don’t let that happen to you. Focus on self-love, and romantic love will follow.
You may have to put in more work than you’d expect
Sure, some relationships aren’t meant to be, and there comes a time in some of them when you realize you have to end it. However, it’s okay if you want and need to work on your relationship. One of the beautiful things about finding your person is that even when you go through a rough patch, something deep inside of you tells you not to give up.
Not every relationship is flawless, and sometimes, you must put in a lot of work to get to peace and happiness. So when you start seeing someone new, mentally prepare yourself by opening yourself up to the possibility that you’ll have to work towards your dream relationship.
Again, relationships are far from perfect, even if you see or know some couples who act like they are. They require work and can have their ugly moments.
Taking off rose-colored glasses related to relationships may sound scary, but accepting and coming to terms with the reality of the situation can help you be more prepared to meet someone you want to build a future with.
