Relationships need constant attention or they wither. Treat your partner like a background priority while you focus on work, friends, or kids, and you'll watch it die. Without regular time and emotional investment, even the strongest bond fades.
But if you get complacent in it and you put it on the back burner for the business, for your friends, for your kids, for everything, and you expect that relationship's always gonna be there, it's not. Like your relationship is like a flower in a garden. If you don't give it what it needs, it is not gonna survive. Even though you think it's an amazing flower, if it gets no water and sunlight, it's just, it's not gonna live.
