Death of relationships
Posted by Prashant - 14/12/09 at 03:12:17 pmWhat started as a simple jungle civilization around 300 AD in the backdrop of rain forests in the Mexico region, Mayan civilization lasted until close of 900 AD. In between these 5 centuries, also referred to as the classical age, Mayan civilization rose to improbable heights marked by architectural brilliance, unparalleled splendor and magnificent display of art and culture. But as everything that has a beginning has an end and as we read on, the history book of Mayan, one page after another reveals this gut wrenching story of how that splendor turning to dust. But like every other civilization, long before history composed the elegy for the Mayans, there were clear harbingers of approaching doom and as in every other civilization people either did not read them at all or were late to react.
Its amazing as to how striking similar the patterns of this beginning-glory-doom-dust life-cycle of civilizations are with that of human relationships. Both display telltale signs long before they start going downhill. Most often then not, by the time one correctly interprets them, its late, very late. The fine fabric of relationship would have been strained beyond repair. From then on it downhill all the way culminating in the death of that relationship.
Some of the telltale signs that mark the impending doom of a relationship are;
Communication:
An ongoing communication is one of the healthiest sign of a good relationship. Put the other way, when its not going too well, its like magically some one has pumped in vacuum between the two.
“NO” option:
Another sign of a healthy relationship is being comfortable in saying NO to the other person.
Person 1 – Hey, can we catch up for lunch?
Person 2 – No. Not today.
Neat, short and simple. Person 1 understands.Person 2 understands. Done.
But then things are not all that great
Person 1 – Hey, can we catch up for lunch?
Person 2 – Looks bleak..too many things to finish. Sorry.
Person 1 – 
That comfort level with other person which you enjoy in a good relation no longer exist.
Terse replies:
Person 1 -
blah blah……………….
……………………………………
blah blah
Person 2 – thanks
Person 1 –
shucks!! I am pretty bad at this, I better stop. This is what happens when you are great fan of blogs like PhyBlog (Understand your mind with the science of psychology) but don’t have the necessary skills nor expertise. Anyways, decided to stick on to travel stuff, speaking of which Orissa-Kolkatta-SandakPhu Phalut trek is happening this month end..Yepppeeeeee. Expecting to see lots and lots of snow, it will be bone chilling cold. Very excited. Will talk more about that later.
