The 5 Deadly Sins of Relationships 

The number of potentially deadly hazards to your relationship is astounding...it makes you wonder why people even try anymore. Well cheer up...for those of us who DO try, the good news is that most of worst things that can ruin your relationship are completely preventable! Five of the most particularly nasty ones are 100% avoidable, as you will soon see.

1) Infidelity. Also known as CHEATING on your partner. Boys and girls, if you can't seem to fully comprehend the idea that sleeping around is a BAD thing to do that can emotionally destroy your partner...you deserve to be alone, I just feel bad for the person who loved you and got hurt because of it. The rules are simple: don't cheat. When you commit to a relationship with someone, that means everyone else becomes OFF-LIMITS. Honestly, there's no reason you should even want to breach your partner's trust in you...not if you have any shred of human decency.

2) Being too controlling. Sure it's funny on TV when a professional comedian plays a hapless, good-natured guy with an evil witch of a wife who calls him every fifteen minutes to demand to know where he is...but in the real world that's not funny, it's exhausting. Don't think I'm just talking about women being too demanding either...guys do it too, and it's not a joke, it's not cute, and it's not justified. It's emotional abuse is what it is, and a lack of trust that's going to end up with you being quite lonely.

3) Lack of emotional support. Everybody has feelings, regardless of whether or not they like to advertise them. The one person we'd rightfully expect to honor and pay attention to those feelings is our partner. When the person you love doesn't consider or pay any attention to how you feel, it really hurts! I know TV has made it out to be that women are the only ones ever upset because their men aren't emotionally sensitive, but guys do have feelings as well. Don't neglect your partner's feelings, it's just needless hurt.

4) Fights that make too much of a difference. Face it, every relationship has troubles and therefore at some point or another there's usually a fight. Believe it or not, this is actually healthy...it allows you to get the air cleared about things that are making you unhappy, and makes everone aware of what needs to be done to bring the two of you closer together. The problem is that some people allow these fights to affect them too much, and they develop into all-out wars that shake the ver way people feel about one another. This is a bad misuse of a conflict...so basically all I can tell you is CHILL OUT and take heed of what's being said rather than blowing up.

5) Boredom and lack of spontanaeity. I feel physical pain every time I hear about a happy couple breaking up because the relationship became stale and boring. There is so very little reason why your time with the one you love should end up becoming more of a day-to-day routine than a constant joy. Do what's needed to make things stay interesting and fun! You're two great people in love, why shouldn't every day together be a blessing? Letting a relationship reach its expiration date should be a crime, because it's just such a tragic waste...

Well now you've been versed in the basic Five Deadly Relationship Sins. Any one of these can really cripple your relationship, and even the person you share it with...so in the name of anything you consider holy, avoid hurting the one you love by keeping these things from ever having a chance to destroy your relationship. With a little bit of trust, care, and decency, your biggest threats can be absolutely nothing.

So before you do something that'll jeopardize your relationship, stop and think. Is it really worth it to hurt your partner and become alone? Have a brain, and have a heart.
