The Truth About Relationships

People fight. It's inevitable. No matter how much you complain to your friends or want to kick a person in the peanuts, you'll soon come to realize that if you have someone who's willing to work with you, even when you're both irrational, you have found unconditional love. Don't settle for any less than the best and when you do find that special someone make sure that they are willing to accept you....all of you...even that deep dark angry side and vice versa. Love is not one-sided.



P.s. Violence is wrong no matter what. That is not the best and don't accept it, ever. A person not willing to respect your body doesn't deserve you.



People cheat. Someone who repeat cheats is better left single. This doesn't mean people don't change, they can. However, if they're not willing to learn from their mistake and change, they don't deserve your love. A mistake is a mistake, but a habit is, and probably always will be, a habit.



People judge. Hey, it's what we do inherently. Sometimes we can do the very thing we are judging and not realize it. We are all hypocrites to our own degree. It doesn't make us bad people, it means we haven't fully learned about ourselves or to accept others. Do find those people in your life that accept you and love you. Maybe people judge, but true friends and true lovers can learn to look past their ideals and opinions to try to understand you. To be able to understand and interact with another person is what can make or break a relationship.



People love. Whether it be a family member, a friend or a significant other. We all love. Some we love unconditionally and some we can only take so far.True, it's better to break the ties that hurt you, but it doesn't mean you have to stop caring. At some point in our lives we will lose someone we love to miscommunication, passage of time, betrayal and even neglect. This doesn't mean it won't hurt. Losing someone hurts, but some love isn't meant to last forever. The most aspect of love is to love yourself and surround yourself by people who you can love and they can reciprocate.



Most important of all, do find that person that calls you their shining star. Find that man (or woman) who makes you feel like everything in the world is beautiful. That doesn't mean you're going to have a perfect love because no love is perfect. People do fight and judge - though they should never cheat because that's not love if you're always looking for an escape. If you can both work for each other and put in to the relationship equally, then it is a true blessing. True love is the kind that will last not because it is filled with perfection - perfect relationships usually mean that one person is hiding because no one can agree 100% of the time. True love is the type of love that will stay present, stay focused and stay trying to learn and adapt to you. It is the kind of love that wants to be with you through thick and thin. The love that shouts at you at the top of their lungs and that you shout at the top of your lungs, but end in compromise or try to understand. It is the love that will hold you at night because they want you to be safe and they want to be by your side. It's the love that wants you to be a better person and that you want to make a better person. It is the love that will hold your hand, even when you tell them you are confused. So, don't settle for any less than the best...but don't think that love is perfect...because it's not. It is the imperfection that makes the relationship stronger and helps us understand each other. It is the imperfection that makes us realize we are right (or wrong) for each other - whether it be a friend or lover).



I dedicate this to the one that made me realize all this.... :)
