Love is Evolving Together

One of the keys to a lasting relationship is that the couple evolve together.  Change is inevitable in individuals and that change naturally causes changes in the relationship.  But if the individuals support each other through the ebb and flow of change that takes place, if they can go with the flow instead of be buffeted by it, they become each other’s life jacket, growing stronger as they embrace the changes together.  Dr. Phil suggests that the success of a relationship can be measure by the degree to which the needs of each partner are being met.  And so as needs change and evolve, successful marriage partners keep up with the changing needs and continue to be sensitive and caring for their partner. And that is a mark of true love.
