Complacency

At first, I thought love was just enough in my relationship. You know that initial excitement, and feeling so close with someone— I believed it would last forever. However, as days turned into years and the demands of work and daily routines took hold, it became apparent how simple it is for a relationship— to fall into a comfy pattern that might get a bit dull. This led me to an interesting discovery: relationships need more than just love. They actually require continual work. Getting too comfortable is like a hidden danger for long-term relationships. Complacency doesn’t just pop up suddenly with big fights or major problems. Instead, it creeps in quietly through small things— forgetting to say thanks, missing those deep talks, or putting off time together because "we'll do it later."

I've seen how this subtle drift can make even strong couples feel far apart. That’s why I decided to treat my relationship like a garden. You know? If you don’t water it, take care of it, and protect it, weeds— in this case complacency— will eventually take over. So here I wish to share some insights about how to prevent complacency in relationships so that one can enjoy a long-lasting romance! Such information isn’t just theory but practical knowledge from personal experience that has strengthened not only love but also companionship for me.
