Adult relationships are never easy, but they do at times make more sense than the relationships we have when we are children. Though our relations with our parents are rocky at times, at least they make sense. When it comes to peers, however, things can often be askew. Children often overreact and do things that we would never do as adults, but it is all in the path that we must take. There peer relationships often help us as we grow to understand what is really important, and these are the lessons we take with us into adulthood.

The hardest part of adult relationships is maintaining them, at least at first. As we grow we learn that some things are forgivable and some are not. We aren’t totally sure about these things when we begin having adult relationships, and we have to blunder through some of them as a part of a trial and error progression that teaches us more about human behavior than perhaps we all realize. This trial and error period often come during and after high school, but it does leak into our relationships throughout our twenties and even thirties.


 Quote of the Day
To brew up an adult, it seems that some leftover childhood must be mixed in; a little unfinished business from the past periodically intrudes on our adult life, confusing our relationships and disturbing our sense of self.
—Roger Gould (20th century)



Adult relationships are just about friendships either. This can come as part of the love relationships as well. Though some are lucky, and they sail though to true love, many of the rest of us have to endure a lot of bumps and bruises along the way, and we may see a trail of broken adult relationships behind us as we move forward. Some learn quicker than others, and some of us insist on learning the hard way. I think I have to learn the hard way and I don’t think I’m done yet.

Learning how to navigate adult relationships takes a lot of patience, and it takes a person who can see past mistakes to have true and lasting friendships and marriages. You can hold grudges over minor things if you want to have great friends because there is no one who is perfect anywhere in the world. Just as you make mistakes in your adult relationships, so does everyone else. You have to keep this in mind when you come upon a rough patch. You just have to decide if you can get over it and move on, or if the event you are facing is just too big to forgive. If you make mistakes, you should realize everyone else could as well.
