What people Want from Relationship?

Every year the nature of reality changes and along with it the way we deal with relationships and what we can expect from them. Some people think they know what they want, then discover they have changed and want something and someone else. Many people are addicted to love and need to feel the, chemical high. Some relationships are about ego, your partner telling you how wonderful and attractive you are. Compassion, gentleness, and love seems to be key factors in making relationships work. The low level emotions, anger, violence, fear, kill all relationships.
But....what most people want is someone who will be there for them 'no matter what', placing them above everything, to be the best friends, exclusive lovers, have frequent and good communication, someone to share their lives with. They want someone who cares, who is dedicated to their relationship, making them feel loved, needed, and removing many of their fears, caretakers for the weary and frightened souls. "I'll do anything for you...." Clients often ask me, "What is my partner thinking about me? Does he or she love me?"
Not everyone is capable of giving or receiving love at a that level, it takes too much away from one's personal growth, most of us avoid needy whiny people. People often say they just want a companion, but in truth they want the whole package, emotional, physical, mental and spiritual. They want someone to share their lives with. They are fooling themselves if they think otherwise. They want a real relationship.

Then we find other people who do not have an emotional need for this type of intimacy and co-dependence. They usually find it clingy, possessive and controlling.
One must have some degree of balance to make things work.
Some relationships are just about sex, as the partners are very compatible.
Some partners want you all for themselves, to the exclusion of others, family and friends. This goes to low self-esteem issues and an unhealthy relationship.

Then there's the situation when a partner does not get along with your friends and family. We now come to friends... mine, yours, ours. There simply isn't enough time to satisfy everyone and have time for yourself.
