The conclusion of a long-distance relationship prompted a reflection on the nature of relationships and their worth. Most romantic relationships do not last a lifetime, with many ending in divorce. Viewing a relationship's end as a failure suggests wasted effort, while a positive perspective sees it as a completed chapter filled with growth and experience. Past experiences can shape current views on relationships, leading to beneficial reflections despite their endings, as seen in the author's previous relationships.
"While there are many ways to look at the ending of a relationship, there are two main approaches. One is to consider the relationship a failure... Another approach is to consider the ending more positively: the relationship ended but was completed."
"When my previous relationship ended in 2016, I initially looked at it as a failure: all that effort invested and it ended because... However, I tried to look at it in a more positive light... it was a very positive relationship, rich with wonderful experiences."
