I've seen a lot of social happenings, such as relationships. And I think a lot. Whenever it comes to me and one other, I plan my moves well and I execute them. I've experienced quite a bit, and now I'm here to share with you the data I've collected over the years!
1) Relationships are almost ALWAYS one-sided. It starts out with one person liking another. And usually the other party has no feelings whatsoever for that person.
Only very very rarely, will there be a case whereby both parties are interested in one another at the same time.
2) There'll always be a person who always gives, and a person who always receives. Yeah, both parties might switch roles for awhile. But there'll always be a main giver, and a main receiver.
The main giver is ALWAYS the person who starts talking to the other party about relationship-based matters for the first time. OR the main giver is ALWAYS the person who's interested in the other party first.
3) The moment before, and once both parties enter a relationship, there will be this CRITICAL(IMPORTANT) time when both parties are interested in one another. Usually for a span of 1-3 weeks. It is CRUCIAL for the main giver to do something which APPEALS to the other party.
If the main giver does NOTHING, the main receiver will lose interest. And from then on, it will be very tough to appeal to him/her. The relationship will then turn stagnant.
If the main giver does something which DOES NOT appeal to the main receiver, the relationship will end quick, if not immediately.
Only by sheer willpower and sincerity will the main giver do something which appeals to the main receiver. And this will cause the main receiver to heighten his/her interest of the main giver, if not maintain at the same level.
4) The main force which binds both parties together for the first 1-3 years is NOVELTY. Both parties see each other as something new. And the human mind perceives new as something good. However, the new gets old. And it is up to BOTH parties to maintain the interest of each other.
However, as #2 has stated, there is always someone doing most of the giving, and someone doing most of the receiving.
Yes, the person who gives will always be interested in the other party. (Why else give money away? However, the person who receives MIGHT NOT be interested in the other party anymore, even if they are still receiving. (Who doesn't want free stuff?)
5) One-sided relationships never work out. And it will USUALLY(not always) be the main receiver initiating the breakup.
6) And so, to maintain a relationship, both parties MUST GIVE & RECEIVE. This needs lots of willpower. A lot. And frankly, I have not seen anything like it.
Yes... I think that's all I've gathered. And yes, it might be common sense to you people... But hey, sometimes you need people to remind you =D
