A female friend just posted on her Facebook page "Once in a relationship, and now single again..." We've been inundating her with all sorts of comments for the past week. From the "Oh no" to the "Why? What happened?" to the "But, you guys looked perfect together!" to the encouraging ones.
This leads to some questions I always ask my friends when they bring up the topics surrounding relationships, love ,lust, marriage, romance: Must you marry? Must you have a boyfriend? Must you be in a relationship?
It hurts me to see relationships go so sour, especially when I remember how the couple made people so jealous and envious of the union when they started out. Why do people waste time, emotions, affections, money, and energy together, and on each other for months, and sometimes years, only to fall apart? With a little level-headed observation, couldn't they have saved them-selves the scars of heart-aches ab initio? Yeah, yeah. People do change, I hear you say. But, don't you think a few months is too little an evolution circle to bring about a drastic, undesirable change in your partner? Wasn't that annoying habit always there, hidden by your blind emotions and his/her coyness? Let's face it, I'm no saint, but I've been married faithfully for 4 years and 11 months, and I can't bear to think how my life was before I met my wife.
I want to assist as many as I can on this blog. It's open to comments frome everyone and anyone. If at the end, at least ONE person makes it to bliss-dom in marriage, I would be fulfilled.
