Relationship Rules

Another one of the life events that unfolded in the early part of this month was that the BF and I decided to take some space from each other to think about the relationship. I've been working pretty hard on myself the last few years, figuring out how I work etc. Like we all do in our twenties.  Entering into my first serious relationship in the last year, has had an impact on my work and vice versus. In addition to myself getting in the way, I've been trying to figure out where and how I want a relationship to fit into my life. I've made some great strides over our 'break' and will spare you the details. However, I saw this post by Whitney at I Wore Yoga Pants to Work I follow and could not agree more.  

The things that make my relationship whole aren't necessarily going to be the things that make my best friend's relationship work, just as the things that keep my parents' marriage growing aren't necessarily going to be the things that keep someone else's marriage growing.

I think it good to remind ourselves that too, that sometimes a relationship isn't about what 'should' be because it 'should' be about what just is.
