What they dont warn you about your first relationshipis that its often not a relationship at all.
Its were talking, and thats it.

Not everyone has the kind of high school relationship that you see in the movies.
In fact, most people dont.
Thats what makes the second relationship so appealing at first.

You become indecisive, you remain in denial.
You dont understand that love isnt compatibility, and compatibility?
Your second relationship really teaches you that attraction, infatuation, obsession… it isnt love.

And real compatibility is not always something it’s possible for you to predict.
Thats why the third relationship is always such a shock.
What they dont warn you about your third relationshipis that its sometimes the hardest one of all.
Your third relationship comes to you when youve already given up on the idea of finding your soulmate.
Thats when you find someone with whom youactually get along,and you startbuildingyour soulmate relationship.
This is when you learn that love isnt something you find, its something you develop.
This is the relationship that makes you who you are throughout your life.
