I've always want to blog about relationships especially (the boy/girl relationship) but I was always hesitant as it would really speak about my own. This time, the urge in my heart has burst - the experience will tell it all.
I am proud to say that I have an almost 7-year old relationship with my "fiancé" as of this writing. I could confidently justify that there's no really perfect relationship on earth. Two different persons who will share similar things is not really that easy, promise! In the long run, as you grow together, you'll somehow realize the magic of these differences.
From the time we started this journey, I know it wouldn't be a smooth sailing one. Given the fact that he was my first boyfriend, I am very aware that it will require lots of adjustments on my part as if I will have "feelings experiment". By the grace of God, I was able to love unconditionally and maturely.
We both act, think, prioritize and decide differently. Despite of this fact, I can say that we really don't fight, we just do deeper conversations. We would sit together and discuss matters with so much respect on each views. As we move forward, through God's guidance, the differences have made us stronger. For the love history, the relationship has started with conversations... endless conversations. There were debates, serious talks, career discussions and spiritual points. Generously, I will reveal the secret of a peaceful and successful talk. It's because we don't converse to WIN nor recognize ourselves as the LOSER at the end of every conversations.
I can describe it as a "selfless" way of loving. In a relationship, competition in any way will definitely pull each other down. Needful to say, helping your partner to succeed in every aspect of life is a must - that's how companionship works. So, throw the pride and hug all the humility - that's it! How exciting a marriage will be knowing at this stage of our relationship we have already developed this kind of understanding. Of course, it is all by the guidance of the Lord who is the center of this kind of love.
As we go on, love grows well. Meaningful and meaningless talks will always be cherished!
Galatians 5:15 (NLT)
"But if you are always biting and devouring one another, watch out! Beware of destroying one another".
Watch out! ;)
