How I perceived Relationship.
1. You partner date you for who you are.
2. Your partner date you because he/she loves your company
3. Your partner date you because he/she could recall the way you laugh or smiled
4. Your partner date you because you are there when he/she needs your support.
5. Your partner date you because he/she loves the way you make them feel.
Fallacies I observed in relationships
1. You can't change a person but you can accomodate.
2. You & your partner get so caught up with each other that you don't make time for your friends and families.
3. You see your values through your partner's eyes.
4. You lost your sense of independence because you have someone to rely on.
How I see marriage
1. Previously people get into marriages without thinking about divorce. Now as much as we hate to admit it. We do think about divorce.
2. A lot of people who are married told me, "Trust your partner but not a 100% even if dah kahwin". That is why some of these ladies have their fixed investments and never send the mail to their home address.
3. It takes more than chemistry and love. Love alone is not enough to sustain a marriage. Love runs out sometimes, that is why on certain days you questioned "Why do i marry this guy that snores like a cow?!"
4. Marriage takes hard work. If you enter a marriage not thinking about a divorce, I would say "Well done, we need more people like you" because if it's divorce that you are thinking, then divorce is what you will get.
5. Marriage is about making that effort to learn about what works for your better half. What works for your family day in and day out.
I am still a student of "relationship". All I know is your partner dates you for who you are and if it changes you then you have to take a step back and ask "Do i like these changes?".
For all you singles out there always remember there's a thin line that saperates requirements and complibilities. A person can fulfill your requirements but lack in compatibilties or like wise.
For those who has a lot of experience in Love, you should learn and use those knowledge to the next person you are with. The Do's and Don'ts , hence "Relationship is about dealing with regrets". All because you try to make yourself a better partner every single day and sometimes you fall short or you forget. When you forget, you'll learn how to remember and go from there.
I remember someone saying "Sometimes it is not about choosing the right person. Most of the time it's about choosing the right relationships" and I thought that phrase was so spot on! Til then have a breezy Sunday everyone :)

Your insight into the nature of marriage and relationship and what our parents have and what we seem to lack basically stems from our environment and surroundings.
Basically from what I've observed the reason for the escalating number of divorce is just that these couples/kids have neither the resilience or more importantly the commitment and belief to make a marriage work.
And... they don't trust one another... In your earlier post about bein in the backseat if you noticed the reason our parents become soul-mates is because that trust is the basic foundation of the relationship. Anyways... I don't wanna blab too long otherwise I might be accused of hijacking your blog. Tee hee hee
Ciao Tia Lyana.
