Question:
as you go through relationships, are your significant others pretty much the same or are they improvements from the one previous? are you getting better in handling relationships?
it doesn't necessarily mean that you're looking for the one, it's more are you one step closer in finding him/her.
Answer:
significant others are never the same, no two relationships are ever similar, but there are small improvements, i don't make some of the same mistakes, but since i never know what to expect in a new relationship i take it as it goes...
Answer:
I have always thought that each relationship was unique and special in its own way and it's hard to say whether each successive one has been better than the previous. I would like to believe that im progressing to finding that special someone but im still young (19) and I need to mature in some respects, luckily though each relationship I have had turned out pretty good although im no longer with any of them any more. Each new relationship brings new experiences and a new perspective so I guess in a way they do get better.
Answer:
it's getting worse..
Answer:
my whole luck with guys just get worse and worse...lol, too dramatic. no relationship is ever the same with me...
Answer:
gets better... cuz you learn to not repeat mistakes
Answer:
Obviously with anything in life you wanna do better than the last time...upgrade always...with cars...houses....jobs...and yes even a S/O I find that over the year the main difference between women have been physically they have gotten better....then I came to a realization that a cool chick thats average on a 10 scale let say a 6 or 7 is better than a i can't read thats a 9 or 10 so then it got worse...then the looks started to get better again...then I realized i need a girl who is also good in bed so then personality and looks went down again...so back and forth but yes over all if you don't look at one particular trait they have gotten better...
relationship wise I think things have dramatically gotten better my current I'm am the most attracted to as well, as have the most fun with...we also have the healthiest relationship i have ever had...and I am definately handling it a lot better...I am trying something entirely new from past relationships...and thats listening to my heart...and realy communicating my thoughts and emotions...also I feel that being vulernable has had a huge part in this relationship...
I think things only regress when you only blame the other person and dont' learn anything, then you make the same mistake over and over again...sure a guy who beats your or a girl who cheats on you it is THIER action of hitting or cheating that has hurt you...but then again its your action of being with them and not knowing how to handle that situation that has further hurt yourself...fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me
Answer:
I'm getting better. Learn from past mistakes.
4 yrs anniversary last week, he rocks my world.
Answer:
well, seeing that i haven't had a relationship since two summers ago, i would have to say that.. overtime, my relationships progressed for the worse.
in fact, to be honest, even though it's going to be 2 yrs since i've been single this summer, i'm not ready to get into another one. i think it's my fear that all time spent in one might go to a waste regardless if the breakup is good or not.
it's like looking at failure again even if i come out w/ something learned.

Answer:
Definitely, through each relationship I learn more and I'm better now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I realized my mistakes and flaws, although we'll always have them and make them. I am a better person, always learning and trying to be most open and communicate of course.
I've definitely matured alot from my first boyfriend.
My current boyfriend, I go through ups and downs but who doesn't right it's a normal thing. But the ups overcome the downs of course, it's nice to be able to see the progress in the relationship and see it growing.

Answer:
..Eh so far mine's gotten better.
Answer:
To question whether a relationship progressively becomes better is to question whether life becomes easier. We wish it could. We wish that as time elapse, our quality of life improves by the day.. by the hour.. by the second. However, there are so many variables of life that one tiny change, that one tiny adjustment in life can ultimately decide a negative impact in your life or a positive impact in your life.
Where I'm getting at is that relationships do not progressively become better. You may have a greater understanding of relationships (most people have a greater understanding of life as a whole over a period of time), but having a greater understanding does not translate into a better life. Knowing how a machine works will not make the machine work any better. The quality of the relationship depends on how well you become attached to that machine. While it may be outdated to others, it may be robust to you. To take it even further, when you know what kind of machine you want, it is easier to find the machine that best fits your need.
Ah, why the hell did I have to use that analogy? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
In my experience, yes, my relationships have progressively become better, only because I know what I want in a girl. I've been through most of the mishaps of bad relationships (all not long term), and I know when I see a good potential of a relationship when I see one.
