What Haunts After A Break-Up?

A break-up is the worst stress one can have. Other stresses that match or exceed this are loss of business or job, and death. Break-up causes stress in many ways. The way you lived with your partner and looked at life always together suddenly changes. Earlier both of you were on the same side. After break-up both of you are on the opposite sides of the fence.

We begin our relationship with great romantic love. We love what our partner does. We love everything they say and we love working and sleeping with them. We love sharing our ideas with them. At the peak of love, we feel that we were made for each other. The memories of everything that we shared comes back to haunt us after the break-up. It is difficult for many of us to believe that we are no more together. We may still think about sharing ideas, talking about problems with each other and then realize that we are no more with each other. That is a huge shock. The world turns upside-down. We were always depending upon our partner for many things. That suddenly goes away. It is very difficult to bear this change.

The other big change that brings in memories that haunts us is the period of going through the breakup. The spoken words of each other come back in intensity. When you recollect the words your partner spoke while arguing and quarreling with you, you do not know how to believe that it really happened. Because you never expected such words from your partner. During the period of break up you do undergo disbelief that your partner is finding fault with you in many things. But after break-up the memory keeps coming back and creates a hell.

How To Have A Happy Relationship?

A relationship is very tricky. Tensions build up over time and one day both the partners cannot bear the stress of the relationship and give it up. After that they keep thinking about why that happened. Why not secure the relationship right from the beginning. Every relationship will have pluses and minuses. Our objective should be to build the pluses. The minuses will then become insignificant. What are the factors that may positively influence a relationship? Let us write them down.

Maintain awareness of feelings of each other.

If you are trying to be perfect, do not do that. That causes stresses. Accept that both of you are imperfect.

Talking about breakup up in heat of the moment is wrong. One should rather avoid talking about breaking up altogether. Avoid discussing about any break up your friends have. Do not focus on any negative. Focus on positives.

Be compassionate towards each other. Take care of the mood swings and do not create tension over small things. Try to ease the atmosphere. Show care towards other person.

Lying about anything should be absolute no. Do not even try to hide things. Be totally open about everything. Never develop any trust deficit.

If something was better for you in the past and is not so in the present, avoid saying so.

Always end the day on a happy note. Do not let any misunderstanding open at the end of the day. Clear up all the mess and apologize if needed.


Know all about your partner's likes and dislikes. If there is a conflict between what you like and what your partner likes, discuss that openly. Surrender if required. Ego in small matters never helped any one. You will feel better if you give happiness to your partner.

Go by your good instinct. Avoid thinking and dwelling upon negatives. Think of the world as a good place and your relationship as a great one.
