What is the relationship deal-breaker for you? I’m sure you have several answers in your mind to this question.

As we know, humans are made for relationships. Whether it’s a romantic relationship, work, or family, no man is an island. Some relationships are more complex than others and all relationships need conscious effort from all parties involved to make them work.

A romantic relationship, usually, is a relationship where the people involved are intimate with each other (emotionally and/or sexually) and are committed to each other. Research has shown that even in relationships that might have been perceived as perfect, conflicts could arise and some of these conflicts may not be resolved thus leading to dissolutions.

Unfortunately, there are a number of reasons why a relationship could end, and these reasons vary according to person. What is triggering to one person might be a deal-breaker to another.

Deal-breakers are the things we absolutely must have (or not have) in a relationship in order for it to be possible. Some common deal breakers are; cheating, abuse, distance, lies, addiction, halitosis, poor hygiene, and all others. The list goes on and on.
