Being in a relationship is not an insurance against anything. The good and the worse may come in almost equal proportions.
You have to be really smart to completely dodge the majority of the worse but that will, in some way, negatively impact on your partner's perception of you.
In as much as there are benefits of being in a relationship, there are the worse parts as well.
Here they are.
1. You have to be responsible for the other person
Being responsible for the other is not really a guy's thing. Even ladies have to make sure that they take care of their men and fend off other 'predators.'
Before you settle down as couples, you may find this to be quite disturbing given you also fear that they may leave at any one time.
2. Impaired decision making
Because you always have to involve them in the making of decisions, you will be prone to errors in settling for decisions you do not really deem fit.
How long it goes on cannot be determined unless you decide to act independently in your relationship with is unheard of.
3. The constant fear of losing them
When in love, there is always that mild fear that your partner could walk away. Even if you do not show it, it will slowly be eating you deep down.
Whenever they are not with you, you will always fear that someone else has taken your place. It is that awkward.
