In this episode, I talk about the qualities of what makes a lasting longterm relationship and reflect on how my relationship was with my (late) partner Roger. I have nothing to compare it on, as he was the only longterm relationship I've ever had, well the only proper relationship full stop, the only love of my life, my soulmate... So my definition of what makes a good lasting relationship, the three main points would be Love, Loyalty and Communication. And the term love, for me would mean loving the person 100% and still being in love with the person no matter how many years together, that feeling would never fade away, that's true love. There's a difference, if you love the person, but maybe being in love with the person has faded away after so many years, or loving the person and still being in love with the person no matter how many years together, that feeling is still there, and I believe that's what makes a lasting relationship. And in terms of for example, with me having mental health problems, if someone truly loved me and cared about me, they would stick by me no matter what difficulties there were. As I know, some people would probably walk away, from someone with difficulties, whether someone had mental health problems or physical health problems.
