A Relationship is like a Bridge

Picture a bridge going across a bay. It is suspended in the middle because it is firmly attached to the land on either side. What would happen if one of the supports is compromised or weak and crumbles? The bridge wouldn't be able to carry you across. It needs both supports to make it strong and functional.

A relationship needs 2 strong supports to function. This is why each person needs to be strong and functional to make the union work. You first have to fix the relationship with yourself to support your side of the bridge.
