Recently, One evening I was checking my Facebook profile. Facebook asked me about my relationship status. Well, I saw something after which I questioned myself, "Why is it complicated?". Yes, there was this option "It's Complicated". I asked myself, "Would I like to be in a complicated relationship?". The answer was, "NO".
Then I was wondering that who are these people for whom this option is available on Facebook. Do they really like to be in a complicated relationship? Are they happy to be in such a relationship?

Relationships have a very huge impact on our lives but in the 21st century, everything is going more complex day by day and so are our relationships.
Many people might not be aware of the power that we have. The power to choose our relations on our own. Anytime, we can get out of such a relationship which has been a poison to our peace and happiness and choose to be in a relationship where we have a sound state of mind.
Let's trace down the reasons why a relationship becomes complicated, possibly due to:
Life is a precious gift and it must be lived to its full extent. Having good relations helps you to explore more, grow more and get the best out of you. So we need to find that ONE REASON that will help us to avoid complications in relationships and stay clear and focused.
The key ingredients for any successful relationship are a willingness to trust in each other, to communicate effectively, be able to apologise when we make mistakes and take responsibility for own behaviour, to maintain a sense of humour and humility and above all to give each other and the relationship time by being actively involved and sharing a significant part of our lives together.
So the question that must be popping in mind is how can we build such relationships. Some factors that you might consider are:
At last,
"Life is a bowl of cherries. Some cherries are rotten while others are good; it's your job to throw out the rotten ones and forget about them while you enjoy eating the ones that are good!"

So the question that must be popping in mind is how can we build such relationships. Some factors that you might consider are:
- Time: Give it some time. When the relationship is working or feels right to us we can become complacent. So attending to and being attentive to the other person and to the relationship is critical. Take time to check out with each other how things are and what, if anything, needs to change.
- Self-awareness: Knowing more about yourself helps you to analyze whether you're ready for commitments and responsibilities that are about to come.
- Ability to resolve conflict: At some point in time everyone fights and quarrels, the ability to handle the situation in a positive, constructive and calm manner comes into the picture then.
- To Listen: Listening requires a great deal of empathy. When we decide to really listen we make ourselves available to that person, thereby demonstrating the importance we are giving to that person and to the relationship.
