So, anyone here actually know to maintain a relationship

Bottom line: I know how to get girls but I'm not that good at maintaining relationships. Anyone have any tips? I would also like to hear some tips from girls too, so that I can get some insight into what I should do.

Don't act interested and then get bored. Maintain! Maintain! Maintain!

Your later boredom reflects a truth about your preceeding interest to your SO.

It's pretty easy: just stick around and persevere no matter what the difficulties. I view my marriage as some kind of natural law; I don't consider that there's any viable alternative to simply making it work.

The problem is, it takes two people doing that to succeed. If one doesn't, then it doesn't matter how hard the other one tries. So, another big part of maintaining a relationship is picking the right partner in the first place.

P.S. And just because a relationship runs its course and ends is not an indication of failure. Very few relationships last a lifetime, contrary to what the fairy-tales would have us believe. If it lasts a few years, that's a good run. The best thing to do for a mutually-declining relationship is allow it to end amicably. At least then you might retain a friendship out of it.

I think I could maintain a relationship with the right person, as long as they were open minded and understanding of my limitations.

I think Melantha has given the absolute best relationship advice ever. It's the most logical, sensible approach, and hardly any people realize that it's just that simple.

I'm quoting this to my son in my next email.

Yeah I know how to maintain a relationship after having been dumped. I know lot's more. So what's your question

Experts say communication is the key to any relationship. Unfortunately that isn't our strongest areas.

i'm sure i could get into a relationship, i just dont want any kind of work to maintain it. so ideally i need a low stress, no drama easy going relationship. wich seem to be pretty rare today
