Mismatched Connections: Why We Don't Always Click

Building lasting relationships requires authenticity and growth. Yet, sometimes we find ourselves incompatible with people we initially connect with. Here are three reasons why this might happen:

Pretense: During introductions, people often present their best selves. This can lead to mismatched expectations, as the initial impression isn't always a reflection of long-term compatibility.

Change is inevitable: People evolve over time. Interests, values, and priorities can shift, causing a once strong connection to weaken.

The control myth: We might be drawn to people with the hope of changing them. However, genuine change comes from within, and trying to force it often backfires.
