When 2 individuals decide to become exclusive post dating, they both hope that 'this exclusivity' will lead to a committed relationship. While many relationships may have a happy ending, there are many that end up breaking. Breakups hurt, and a lot (I have experienced it too). While it's okay to feel bad, even terrible, but one should be conscious to not get caught in blaming the person you were with. Or blame yourself for investing and trusting in the failed relationship. Doing so will lead to self-doubt and vulnerability which is likely to lead into impulsive decisions, like entering a new relationship for self-validation, which should be avoided as it can be emotionally detrimental. The smart way to manage a breakup is to accept the hurt and sadness that looms around it. Post acceptance, it is important to invest in self-introspection and self-reflection without placing blame on self or the person you were with. Doing this helps you come out stronger and ready for a new relationship if at all. It is a known fact that for a healthy romantic relationship, it's crucial to have a healthy relationship with oneself. Avoiding the blame game during the breakup allows in achieving this. While breakups hurt, they are not the end of the world, and they should not be treated as such. We are smart, thinking beings, which means pragmatism should prevail when it's needed, especially in romantic relationships.

The good news is 44% folks do invest in 'self reflection' this gives me hope :) andwemet

She and he, both 33 years old, met through an andwemet meetup and have been interacting for a couple of months. (Initially, our meetups were hosted online before transitioning to offline.) 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 I like the man. We vibe well, in fact, too well. I have no reasons to not like him, I have tried to, but it's difficult. 𝐁𝐮𝐭... 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐞𝐬 There is one thing that bothers me tremendously, and I'm surprised I have been patient and not reacted until now. This one thing about him is huge for me; it is stopping me from making the commitment. 𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐝 So you are saying you have met the person you see yourself in a long-term relationship with, except for this one reason...and can this reason be fixed? 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 I don't know. I have no clue which is why I am here talking to you. 𝐈 𝐬𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭 Let's think together to work out a solution for this. Are you saying that if he worked on your dealbreaker, things would be all fine? 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐦𝐬 Yes. 𝐈 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐞 What is the issue that is bothering you? 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐬 He eats with his mouth open, which is unbearable for me. 𝐈 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞 This is more of a pet peeve than a dealbreaker. This is most likely could be solved. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐬 How do you think we can solve this? Please do not suggest that I communicate asking him to eat with his mouth closed; that would be rude and it will make him feel bad. 𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐝 There you go, you have the answer. Yes, we need to communicate with him. The interesting bit is how it is communicated so it is heard and comprehended. I recommend they ask each other to point out 2-3 irritants about each other. When it's her turn to speak, she can bring up what bothers her. He will likely listen, be mindful, and adjust or explain if it's a medical issue. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐬 I love this, will do this. I also wish to know if there are things about me that bother him because if there are, I would like to correct them too. She carried out the plan. He shared two things with her that he thought might need working on, and she shared the one we had talked about. Upon hearing her, he told her that no one in his 33 years had ever pointed it out, and now that it has been, he will work on it. This happened in March, and just yesterday they reached out to let us know they are getting married at the end of this year. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧? 1. Have an open conversation with your partner about your concerns. 2. Consult a trusted friend or family member for advice. 3. Contemplate ending the relationship. 4. Tolerate the situation but feel unhappy about it. 5. Points 1 & 2 #trueincident

It's fascinating to see the evolving landscape of committed relationships among Indians. While marriage remains the traditional norm, there's a growing acceptance of alternative forms of commitment. The poll results, particularly the preference for companionship over marriage or living together, offer an intriguing insight. 𝑰𝒕 𝒔𝒖𝒈𝒈𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒅𝒖𝒂𝒍𝒔 𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒆𝒙𝒄𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝒂 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒇𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏 𝒔𝒆𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒗𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒐𝒖𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏𝒔. Exploring the motivations behind this choice reveals a diverse range of perspectives. Some prioritize existing responsibilities, such as caring for children or parents. Others may have experienced challenges in previous relationships and seek a different approach. And for some, companionship simply aligns with their personal preferences for commitment.
