The Permanence of Relationships

Once a relationship is formed, it remains a part of your life, regardless of its current status. The notion of being in a relationship extends beyond ongoing communication, as memories and feelings persist even after separation. This enduring connection means that individuals will carry thoughts and emotions about their former partners, whether positive or negative. Examples include people who continue to express strong feelings about an ex, revealing that they still have an active relationship, even if it's filled with resentment or nostalgia.
