When you fall in love with someone, you can’t really predict the direction of the relationship. The relationship could be perfect. Or at times, it could be the worst thing you would have to endure. Most of us have to have all the other types of relationships, to understand what a functional relationship should look like. There are many kinds of unique relationships that you could experience in your lifetime. But all of them can be summarized into these 6 types of relationship: 1/ The controlling relationship One partner plays a dominant role in the romance, while the other partner just follows the rules. You may not realize you’re being dominated for a very long time until you start getting frustrated and feeling helpless. 2/ The negotiation relationship Both of you are happy with each other, but every now and then, there are a lot of negotiations and compromises from both sides just to keep the other partner happy. 3/ The asexual relationship Both of you are sexually attractive and even get attracted to the opposite sex. But both of you aren’t interested in having sex with each other. The routine of lovemaking may have bored you and you may not care for it anymore. 4/ The unhappy relationship You’re not happy in your relationship, but you’re still staying back, not for love, but for something else, like your kids or what society will think of you. 5/ The long distance relationship Both of you love each other and are connected to each other emotionally. But physically, both of you live in two different area codes and share minimal physical intimacy. You’d have to deal with insecurities and jealousy, and several bouts of suspicion now and then. 6/ The sacrificial relationship This is unconditional love in its worst form. You’re dating someone you truly love with all your heart, but your partner doesn’t seem to love you with the same intensity as you love them. And even if both of you are really nice people who are perfect for each other, this kind of relationship will only lead to bitter fights and helpless tears.
