relationship is and is not

 Dipping my toes into new phase of life I discovered one two things about relationship. So pretending like (self)acclaimed relationship advisor, here's my relevation. 


relationship is not 

only being loved and get pampered.

relationship is about 

giving love and fulfill needs. 

Cause it takes two to tango - both have to feel loved. 


relationship is not 

a consistent feeling of high and up. 

relationship is about 

a consistent commitment to stay high and up, even when it's low and down. 

Cause to rely on feeling is absurd, and commitment is reliable. 


relationship is not 

luck, coincidence, or "the right relationship for you should be easy".   

relationship is about 

striving, hard work, and perseverance. 

Cause nothing good will come up from easy things. Even effortless has the word effort still. 


relationship does not 

always make you happy.

relationship does 

grow and mature you.

Cause you will meet the good, the bad and the ugly of one and yourself. 


relationship is not 

accepting 'just the way you are'.

relationship is

becoming the better way you are.

Cause it's bucin for the former, and who doesn't want a better partner? 


relationship is not 

exclusive.

relationship is

inclusive. 

Cause as ps. jeffrey said, your household will be joyful when your relationship is blossoming; and painful when otherwise. 


relationship is not 

always sparks and fireworks; or steady and solid. 

relationship is 

sparks at times, with a chance of drop, partly mundane.

Cause it is life, after all.



Be careful with whom and when you have relationship with and on.

With the right one you can flourish, otherwise perish.
