Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something: they're trying to find someone who's going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take. Anthony Robbins
About This Quote

The above is really a classic example of the way most people are in relationships. They are all out for themselves. Even when they promise to be faithful, they are still looking for ways to get what they want. Most people don't see their relationship as a place where they go to give, but rather as a place where they can take what they want.

They are looking for things they can take from their partner. And with most people, the most anyone wants is sex. This is why so many married couples cheat on each other.
