No relationships last forever and some are meant to be short term.
No relationships last forever??? Really? Is this your experience? Because I just don’t see it as true and my expierence is much different. My maternal grandparents were together over 48 years until my grandmother died and my grandfather missed her until he died 10 years later. My paternal grandparents were married for 71 years until my grandmother died. My grandfather greatly missed her for the 14 months he survived without her. My parents will celebrate 60 years this summer. I could go on and on. Clearly some relationships do last forever - or at least until death. I’m curious why you feel otherwise?
