The Secret of Happy Relationships

We all want love, affection, warmth, and much more from a connection with a loved one, but few are ready for mature relationships. For this very reason, we repeatedly experience disappointment in relationships and make new attempts to find happiness with other partners until despair takes over. And then, comforting ourselves, we say that 'there is no love,' 'it's not for me,' 'all men (women)...' etc. In reality, all these are weak attempts to justify oneself for not initially filling oneself enough to be giving in a relationship rather than taking.
