StillSmiling I know it seems hard but some relationships do work... Take my parents... They met in high school (they went to brother and sister catholic schools) my mom was 15 and my dad was 16... 37 years later they are married have 3 kids and have developed an amazing life together. In these years they both lost their fathers, had money issues, built a home together, has a child with addiction problems, has a child who got in trouble many times with the law, watch their friends divorse, and also built careers while having a family. They still eat dinner together every night, and sit there talking and catching up for at least 45 mins after dinner. They take vacations together, go to concerts, and simply just enjoy each others company. There is love out there and it takes time and effort. In the end it isn't how gorgeous your partner is, or how you met, but rather can you converse and be supportive and really know each other in and out and love each other in and out. -FYI, my mom hated my dad when she first met him! haha also my mom said if they both chose to go away to college rather then do night school she doubt they would have worked out. This ofcourse is the guy of her dreams and she wouldn't have anyone else, but she is also realistic and know times have changed so do the way relationships develop and fail. Stay hopeful
