the truth about relationships
Love and romance bears the greatest ironies in life. I'm only halfway through my life and yet I feel that I have accumulated so much learnings in dealing with its ups and downs.
~ When you're a new couple, you wish and pray hard that the relationship will last. But when you're in that stage already, you miss the times when everything was new, exciting and ideal.~ When you first met and got together, you swore to each other that acceptance is everything. You accept each other for who you are because that's how you fell in love with each other in the first place. And yet when you've known each other for so long, each other's quircky habits and attitude can still get the best of you.
~ When your hands first touched each other, it's probably one of the greatest satisfying feelings in the world. One day passes and you already miss that one single touch. But when you're together for a long time, this simple gesture seems natural bordering to unimportant.
~ When you first get that hug, it's as if all the security you will ever need has been found. You never want to let go nor let the moment pass. But as time passes by, even when you need one, you now have to ask. And that doesn't mean it will be given to you whole-heartedly.
~ When your lips first met, the tingle in your every born is unexplainable and unimaginable. You recount the very same moment over and over again in your head, trying to relish and relive that special event. But when you've been together for quite some time, your partner may sometimes make you feel that it's an obligation for him.
There are actually a million other ironies. Some may be applicable to everyone, some may be not. Some may experience even worse, yet some may be lucky enough to be in a somewhat perfect relationship.
I believe there is no such thing in "you deserve better". I believe you make things better for both your sake. Others believe that when the going gets tough, you just simply have to give up. That is so wrong and unacceptable. Why commit yourself in a relationship you will just give up later on, right?
Hay, love. Makes the world go round daw but in truth, just plainly makes you go crazy.
