Is Love Enough to Make a Relationship Last?

LOVE is not enough to make a relationship work but it is one of the most important factors that makes it work...Yes, I believe that all the other elements and aspects have to be considered for a relationship to last and this is what is ideal...but what is ideal is not what makes men happy sometimes. Why???

In relationships...especially in love, when one puts limits, boundaries, quantify and qualify what he feels, then love here becomes conditional. So, it is the same as saying..."I will love you if"..."I will love you but"...there are conditions set...and if these expectations and conditions are not met, then we become disappointed. So, we are hurt, because we have set rules...set conditions...This definitely will NOT make us happy at all, because there is no spontaneity to what we feel.

Why NOT let love flow naturally? Just honor what we feel... not rationalize. Love should have no limits nor bounds...The very reason why we are not supposed to answer the question, "How much do you love me?" we can only answer the question, "Do you love me?"

I have known and have witnessed relationships that have lasted for a lifetime just because of love. People in the previous generation, especially those who are not schooled do not know anything about other aspects or factors to be considered....but why did their love for each other work for their relationship? Probably because they are so real and sincere to what they feeland maybe because their love for each other was enough to make their relationship work.

Love may not be enough to make a relationship work...but...it is possible. Pag nagmahal ka naman kasi...at kapag pareho kayong nagmamahalan...for as long as love is there...lahat naman ay posibleng tanggapin at gawin. Kaya nga nagtatagal pa ang pagsasama dahil me pagmamahalan pa. Kapag nawala na yun...di mo na magagawa pa ang mga bagay bagay ...you will not be happy na rin...at dun na nawawala ang lahat lahat pang factors like trust, respect, compatability, etc...

Haaaaayz...basta ang mahalaga po...we have experienced how to love and be loved. Let us treasure nalang the moments we have na me love pa...hehe. There are things we have to accept and endure sometimes because we have made a choice and a decision to love. What is important is we are happy with our decision.
