Couple talk.

Isn't it scary that a couple has to go through so much? Circumstances are ever changing, and a couple has to constantly adapt and be stronger, or face the possibility of separation.

Of course, I am talking about long term couples here. There are just so many stages in one's life; yet, when you're part of a couple, you go have to go through it together. There is the end of secondary school for high-school sweethearts. Going into universities, doing different courses, or ending up at different unis. Or with studying abroad being so common nowadays, what about those unfortunate ones who have to be separated and be doomed in a dreaded phase called the long distance relationship? Then, just when you think you have survived your tertiary education, working life begins. What happens when one person started working, and the other is still studying? Will the working person feels that his or her parner could not uderstand what he or she is going through? Will that person thinks that he or she has seen so much more, and they are therefore no longer compatible? What about when both parties go out to the working world? Will stress kill the passion? Can they find time for each other? And even after you survive all that, there will be other changes occuring in your relationship. Some people move in together. Can they stand each other's living habits? Will they get bored at each other? How do they keep themselves from wringing the neck of the other person? Then marriage comes in, and you think to yourself, hah, I've finally secured my true love. And that it not true. 'Cause you might have to move in with in-laws. Or one party gets paid much more, especially when that person is a woman. Or, you could have a baby! Or more babies! Menopause for women, erectile dysfunction for men.

What I am trying to say is, changes always happen. Everytime a change arise, the relationship might be slightly rocky, because the situation is an unknown and you do not know what to expect.But, as a strong, commited couple, or to be a strong commited one, you have to constantly be understanding, trusting, and acclimatize. When the next change weave its way into your relationship, repeat the same pattern again.

All you need to do is find faith in your love, look into the eyes of your loved one as you tighten your clasp around his or her fingers, and love will have its way.





Don't worry, my relationship is not on the rocks or anything like that! Just have been pondering over this matter recently, as I look at all the different situations that the couples around me are in. In fact, things have been great with the boyfriend and I. :) Though he works till 12am almost every night, and he's posted in Kuantan now, and some days we only get to talk for 10 minutes per day, I feel loved as ever. Nevertheless, I do feel that a long distance relationship is one of the biggest challenges that couple have to face. But we'll leave that for another day. :)
