[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s trite, but as time goes on two people are likely to grow apart. Wanting different things during retirements, having big and small regrets, shifting values and priorities around kids, money, outside family/friends, house duties, etc etc. people get set in their ways and don’t respond well to the other. They forget about romance and caring that was there in the beginning before everything got busy and stressful. Years of small resentments pile up. [/quote] In bad relationships yes, but that’s due to actual underlying issues not being addressed, not “growing apart”. “Growing apart” is a cop out or some vague thing you tell strangers about why yours divorced In a good relationship the constant trust, problem solving, and shared memories strengthen the relationship and companionship. [/quote] +1 it’s a watered down excuse [/quote]
