Just finished watching a show regarding the relationship of two girls which were best friends but ended up having a big war because of tons of things. I kept wondering, how can a small mistake could bring a relationship which has been standing over the years, going down as if it can never be fixed anymore?

In the show, the disappointment from one side towards the other are an obvious act because the other had done something so bad… but have you wonder that the phrase, “Some things happen or were done for a reason” actually means something?

Why does a person make a mistake?

Why would they do something that would hurt the relationship they had with the person they love?

In the show, people would point out on the “mistake” that she made, but doesn’t it matter to look on her side of the story too?

The problems she had and the situations she had to handle. Sometimes, in a relationship, it’s not only about your own lives and problems anymore, because the other side, too - has their own lives and problems which might be beyond your knowing. And when the time you found out the truth, it might be too late or could still be fixed. Relationships usually are broken because problems occurred at the right same timing and people always tells out their problems at the wrong timing. But… what’s important is not the timing because sometimes it’s beyond our control.

To me, these two things play an important role when it comes to these kind of arguments - understanding and honesty. Understanding are the hardest thing to do, but if you come to realise it, the results are satisfaction. And… lies? Would only bring to more misunderstandings and bad assumptions. To me, in situations like these… lies are more like a catalyst to break relationships even faster.
