Does romance end?

Ending romance is more difficult than ending a friendship, because of the perceived waste of money, time and energy and because of a collapse of a dream. An active response to relation challenges is taking actions to end it or working on improving it. A passive response is waiting to see if things change. People with secure attachments tend to respond actively to save the relation. It is difficult but possible to turn a relation around. It is possible if the needs of both partners can be satisfied, if both partners are committed to persist, and if alternative lovers are not readily available.

Children are victims of divorce with overall negative effects, which get worse if one of the parents moves far away. Unhappy partners, who stay together, also negatively affect children. It is important for divorced parents to maintain civil and respectful relations for the sake of the children. It is also important to let children know that the divorce is not their fault, because children always think it is their fault. It is advisable to have some family counseling sessions with children to ensure a smoother divorce for the entire family. Despite the pain of a divorce, most divorced people re-marry.

In conclusion, the desire for love and happiness in a relation overpasses any former relation pain. Each stage in life, and especially infancy, is important to establish successful relations.
