Searching for Healthy Relationships
What percentage of the population has relationships that are healthy? I’d really like to know what the number is. Every time I look around, I see a relationship that isn’t healthy and I wonder why people stay in these situations. The worst are the relationships that you could swear are perfect but in time they crumble like cookies, just like the rest of them.
I am seeking healthy relationships. Maybe this is partially why I have been single for five years. They just aren’t easy to find. I’ve had three good relationships over the past five years where there looked like potential, until something really messed up happened. Now some people may look at screw-ups and think forgive and forget. I can’t. It isn’t healthy for me. Screw-ups play on my conscience. I know that these are the types of things that some people could overlook. It would be easy to put them off as one-time things, errors in judgment that wouldn’t be repeated. However, I’ve been places with people and in relationships where things are good. The relationships are healthy. They have never been right, but at least they’ve been good for the mind, body and soul. It’s enough for me to know that those are the types of healthy, productive relationships that I need to find.
Hopefully I can find them on one of the many matchmaking sites that are out there. I was hoping 2006 was going to be the year I made contact but it seems Ms Right is holding off until 2007. For the New Year, I wish you all the best in finding that relationship that will last a lifetime!

No..it is the two components of love (accepting someone for who and what they are) and forgiveness(usually when they have hurt you) that make a relationship strong. Add commitment and it becomes unbreakable. Choose wisely!
