I agree. There are times when flexible isn’t enough. Sometimes two people grow in opposite directions or change in ways where they are no longer compatible.

Honestly sometimes I think it’s just plain luck to find someone where you have lifelong compatibility. Sure it takes work and commitment to all the highs and lows. Theres no doubt about that. My siblings and parents all have great marriages where they’ve grown together so I’ve seen stability. My friends are about 50/50 with it so at least I’m not alone!

I wish I had that type of long lasting relationship myself too. The older I get the more I feel it may never happen for me and I’m learning to be okay with that. Maybe my life lessons need to happen with multiple people. Or maybe I just don’t have that secret sauce. Idk.
