I have discovered that love doesn't guarantee the success of a
relationship. Love cannot help you stick to one person all
years round cheating isn't always a product of not loving your
partner. In fact, loving someone doesn't guarantee not falling
in love with someone else.
Relationships work out mostly because of our head not our
heart. It works out because of our emotional maturity,
empathetic intelligence and self discipline because, time will
come when you'll see more beautiful, handsome, romantic,
intelligent, sexy, rich, curvy and God fearing people than the
one you're in a relationship with.
In those times, love will not help you; self control will help
you, emotional intelligence will come to your rescue and
commitment will keep you going. With those characteristics,
no matter how you feel for someone else, the person you're
committed to will rank first in your life.
You think happily married people don't see better people than
the ones they married? You think they don't feel funny
sometimes? You think they don't catch feelings? They do!
But understanding that commitment is greater than feelings is
the great arsenal that do destroy that impulse.
You can fall in love with anyone, but building a relationship
takes absolutely more than what attracted you to them and
takes more than love.
We are too fond of loving when it's convenient and sweet. We
are too fond of loving when love is there but that can only last
for just the first 3-6 months of the relationship. After then,
you'll realise that the feelings have dropped, it's now your
responsibility to make it work, not love's responsibility.
Relationships cannot be readymade. You have to build it and
it's never always about love, it requires commitment and
intelligence. On the long run in marriages, it's not just love that
keeps them together forever, it's determination and
commitment.
Everyone falls in love; it takes little or no effort to do that. But
staying in love? Building a relationship? Only the strong and
committed ones do that.
That's why we must find that one person and commit to that
one, discipline yourself and bridle your emotions.
Building a relationship is hard work
