Celebrities keeping their marriage alive hit the headlines more as compared to the celebrities getting married. Stars who showed promise that they would be spending their lives together ended up separating. A majority of the celebs have had failed marriages. Though most of us would try to find spice in their break-ups or divorces, there is a lot we can learn from them. There are a bunch of reasons why their relationships don’t work. Not being able to spend much time together is one of the most basic reasons why couples tend to drift away from each other. One needs to understand that giving each other time is crucial for a relationship to work. There are some other reasons as well why celebrity marriages are often so short-lived.
Less of Togetherness
Celebs often have to travel to distant places as required by the production houses they are working for. Often, their tour schedules are long and tiresome. Plus, they have to give their 100% to the role they are playing and that requires a lot of practice and hard work. Amidst all these, a celeb fails to give priority to their relationships. Since they stay away from each other for months, there is a sort of loneliness that sets in. No doubt, it’s always important that couples should spend some time away from one another, it doesn’t imply that they will eventually become strangers to each other.
Maintaining a proper balance between professional and personal life is the key to making a relationship successful. But extremely busy schedules don’t allow these celebs to do that. Some couples kind of sacrifice their relationships to earn fame and money. Now, what do you learn from here? No matter how busy you are, you need to take out some time to communicate with your partner or spouse. You can make a date on the calendar when you will be talking to them over video calls in case you are staying at a different place for quite some time. Never make your partner feel disconnected from you. Your relationship should be one of your priorities. Period.
Excess Ego
It’s always nice if your partner looks after your needs and wants. At the same time, it’s your responsibility to check whether your partner’s needs and wants are being fulfilled. Talking about the celebs, this doesn’t happen in most cases. Those celebs who are used to or are just interested in staying under the limelight and being at the center of attention all the time, tend to overlook the needs and wants of their partners. Their focus is only on themselves.
If one has a partner who has a huge amount of fame, money, power, and ego, adjusting with them over a long period becomes tough. These people have the habit of everyone pampering them and catering to them round the clock. Now, if their partners demand attention from them, things take a wrong turn. Ego comes in between and that’s where the real issue starts. They always want people who have the least expectation from them and are not demanding at all. A lifetime partnership is all about adjusting to each other’s needs and wants, likes and dislikes, etc.
Lack of Growth
In maximum marriages, the lives of couples stay the same throughout. When it comes to celebs, that’s not the case. One good film or impressive box office collection can bring a lot of change in their lives in the blink of an eye. These opportunities or moments can be great for the celeb, but for the partners who are not as hugely popular as they are and have always chosen to stay away from the limelight, adjusting to this sudden change can be hard.
When you evolve, your partner evolves as well. In such a scenario, you must keep a tab on whether your needs and wants are aligned with that of your partner. Never assume anything or take your partner for granted. Even if your partner adjusted to your lifestyle at the beginning, it doesn’t imply that they will continue to do so forever.
Being Unfaithful
Since there are a lot of opportunities in tinsel town for celebs to hook up with their co-workers. Staying faithful to their partners becomes tough. If you want to be faithful to your partners, never engage in any behavior that will hurt them. Always keep on re-evaluating your relationships. With time, any relationship goes through a lot of changes and steps need to be taken to keep it refresh and alive.
Remember, love in real life is not what you see in movies. You have to be pragmatic and reassess where you and your partner stand from time to time.
