WHEN RELATIONSHIPS TURN SOUR.....

You meet a charming person. You become very good friends with that person. For how charming he/she is, you end up falling in love with him/her. Days pass… and you realize this particular person is not exactly the person you thought he/she was. Friends? Yes.. The same scenario happens. This is a universal truth we all face. This is the general theory of every relationship. First you don’t see the true self of that person, maybe you don’t want to see that, because you’re so busy admiring how charming he/she is or the other person doesn’t show you his/ her true self. But as the time passes, you slowly realize and see who exactly the other person is. Slowly, the true nature of the other person is revealed by himself/herself too.

This is the point where the true value of a relationship comes. Doesn’t matter if it’s a love affair or a friendship. We just fall for the other person for the charm, and when his/her true identity gets revealed, the things become sour. Each and every individual are not perfect products of heaven. Making mistakes comes with human nature. Fault-free is a big NO for humans. What matters is how capable we are to identify the true self of a person and love and value him/ her for what they really are. That’s the most challenging thing, as well as the turning point of a relationship. It’s hard, but it can be done.

Me and my best friend from school…. We have such a good understanding about each other. We’ve known each other for 16 years. We know that we were never and we will never be the perfect duo. Sometimes we have these little annoying things. But in the end, we know that everything will be OK, since we KNOW each other very well. Sometimes we talk about how good we are, to have such a good understanding about each other. What matters is understanding the other person for exactly who he/she is. It requires a little bit of patience… and it takes some time. But it doesn’t matter at all, because in the end… you truly know the other half… and you’re actually with the other person, for who he/she really is…. And NOT for the false charm. Something to think about….
