They usually say, ” if it’s too good to be true, then probably it is.” But, honestly… I do not agree, especially when it comes to relationships. Its easy to get caught up with the fact that you found someone who makes you immensely happy and want to spend every waking (and sleeping) second with them, but I tell you proceed with caution! Ice cream is great but if you eat a whole gallon your stomach is going to be in knots in a couple of hours. Rain makes the grass and flowers grow but constant rain will make your basement flood. Fries are delicious but eating too many and the scale will reflect it. So you get my point consume good things in moderation and that includes relationships.
1. It gives you time to miss one and other
Haven’t you heard distance makes the heart grow fonder?
2. Appreciate the time you have together
Things are valued because they are rare, not easily acquired, and special such as diamonds, gold, money, and your time.
3. You’ll have things to talk about
If you do everything with someone then its rather hard to find a topic to discuss except recapping exactly what you did that day…
4. Ability to have strong bonds with other people
Having a network of friends and family is just as important as having a professional network.
5. You time
Remember that if you don’t take care of you then you aren’t going to be able to give your best to the relationship.
Plus if God forbid things go south with your relationship you have other things that make you happy and so it will be a whole lot easier to bounce back on your feet!
