Why You Don’t Need a Better Half (3 of 3)

Another thing to keep in mind is that your friends and family will always come first. Putting all your energy into a relationship is an easy trap to fall into, but you should never lose sight of the people that were there before your relationship and will be there after your relationship. It really doesn’t take that much effort to text people and meet up every once in a while.

The last thing you should really, really keep an eye on is having your own hobbies. There’s nothing more unhealthy for a relationship than trying to do everything together all the time. You’re both your own person and nobody is forcing you to like or pretend to like whatever the other person is doing. Just support each other and give your partner some freedom to do their own thing and your relationship will last a lot longer.
