Relationships are more then two people coming together and saying we “are boyfriend and girlfriend” or “we are married”. There are many factors that go into a healthy and strong relationship. According to Dr. Neil Clark Warren of noteworthiness is people’s intelligence, spending habits, intimacy level, role expectations and spending habits, and intelligence. Without compatibility relationships will have a hard time surviving. Essential Components of Compatibility: Intelligence: Education and intelligence are two different factors but can have an impact on a successful marriage. If one person is more intelligent then another person it will make conversation and sharing ideas difficult. There won’t be the same ability for connection. Intimacy: Intimacy means that we have feelings of affection for each other. We are willing to spend time alone and enjoy each others company. If we don’t get that intimate time together there is a good chance the marriage won’t work out in the long run. Interest: People must be interested in each other. They must have motivation in keeping the relationship alive. When one person loses interest there is a good chance the marriage or relationship will dissolve. Expectations about Roles: If one of the couples is not fulfilling the expectations of the other person there is a chance the relationship will dissolve. For example a man who wants a stay home wife will probably be unhappy with someone who is career orientated. Essential Reasons Why Relationships Don’t Last: Energy Level: When one person has a lot of energy and is motivated but the other person has a low level of interest the relationship might die. For example if you like to be active, love to work, like to take the kids to enriching events but your spouse constantly wants to watch television it will appear as though this person isn’t interested in the family or doing things together. Lack of Interest: Interest is still a large component of a relationship. If interest is lacking in one of the partners they won’t be motivated into doing some of the things that will keep the relationship together. A lack of interest spells disaster because one or both of the partners will be looking in a different direction. Spending Habits: It may seem funny but how people spend their money is an important component of a relationship. If one is a saver and one is a spender there will be some difference in how the two make purchases, where they go on vacation and the gifts they give each other.
