Lately when I look around me, marriages and relationships fall apart. Whether people get married for the right reasons or the wrong, people are too quick to end their marriage when it gets too hard for them to handle because getting divorces are extremely easy.

Relationships fall apart because no one knows how to be faithful anymore nor do they know how to be committed. It’s pretty sad because any relationship I see someone has cheated or both have cheated. I know cheating may happen, but when it happens more then once, obviously you shouldn’t be with that person and should probably break up before it causes more hurt then happiness

Honestly when I look at the relationships and marriages around me, it makes me not want to ever get married or get in a relationship, but then I see how happy my parents are after being married for 35 years and altogether 40 years. They are still completely in love it makes me sick—not literally. I also look at my sister and my brother-in-law who have been together for seven years I believe they are still in love. I have hope when I look at them, but I still have a hard time trusting anyone because I have seen what goes on in my friends relationships with cheating, and honestly I am not so sure I will ever be able to trust anyone.

I know that everyone’s relationships are different, but seriously everyone cheats it’s ridiculous. Celebrities don’t have faithful marriages or relationships. I know you can’t go by the magazines because there is a lot of lies, but the lies have to be some truth.

But it all goes back to the fact that other then a few marriages that have worked I have seen so many relationships that no one stays faithful in. How do you say you love someone when you cheat on them over and over? Okay, you slip up once because you are young and naive, but then you cheat on them with two or three other people then why are you with this person still? Obviously you don’t love them as much as you say you do, and obviously aren’t happy in the relationship so get out of it instead of staying in it.

Marriages fail now because no one works on it. Things get rough, and people go and get a divorce instead of working through it. Or if someone cheats, yes that’s awful, but you are supposed to stay married through thick and thin—for better or worse, but instead of working on it going to therapy people just get a divorce. Obviously if the cheating happens continuously, I wouldn’t suggest for the person to stay in the marriage, but at least try to work on it.

Relationships and marriages are just so hard to trust. No one is loyal anymore, but hopefully later generations will get better then worse.
