People don't know how to stay together. Faithfulness is like a lost art, especially when people have multiple sex partners throughout their lifetimes. People make so many promises willy nilly and are even quicker to break them making it hard to trust in anyone. People break up with each other all the time and everywhere, it's quite devastating to see couples with so much potential just give up. And then when they decide to come back around, it's usually too late. Moving on from a person you truly loved is hard, and maybe it's hard for a reason. People seem to easily forget that compatibility is something you create. If you want your relationship to be better then you have to work to make it better. Nothing is going to magically be healthy and successful. Same thing with getting fit, if you want to lose 10 pounds you have to work for it. And then it's about consistency and people seem to forget that as well; you can't just eat healthy for a month and then give up and expect to still be healthy. You can't start off a relationship with good communication and then let your laziness take over because you somehow think you don't have to fight for something you already have. Not even bothering to communicate about issues that may arise in the relationship because you somehow think they will just magically solve themselves and then unhappiness slowly begins to set in. Before you know it, the relationship is slowly destructing. And you blow up at each other about shit that you failed to bring up earlier and communicate about before it became such an issue. And then you begin to consider leaving each other. Everyone has differences, it's how you manage those differences. There's plenty of Christian/Atheist couples and look how differing those viewpoints are. Oftentimes, people think separation is a solution. When really it's only a way out and avoiding having to deal with something. You choose your poison; the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. Many people choose the easy way out, which is just simply leaving because they see it as an escape from the dark hole they've dug themselves in. They choose to just leave permanently rather than just giving themselves time and space if that's what they need. And "irreconcilable" is an excuse for not having to deal with issues, they see it as too much hard work and not worth it. But if you truly love someone, it should be worth it. And you should never stop the fight to make things right. Don't give up on the ones you love, your love and support may be just what they need to make a complete turn-around. Regret is such a bitter feeling that never goes away, it haunts you to your grave. And why would you want to lay on your death bed with any regrets?
