i just wanna share this love quote a friend sent me this morning..i find it realistic and deep..
"relationships can never be perfect---
you can never force your partner to be faithful in the same way that a normal relationship should be..
what is important is at the end of the day, you find each other side by side and happy knowing that he/she is yours..
we need to enjoy the relationship while its there---
coz if you waste your time in doubts and insecurities, you'll never appreciate how wonderful it is to fall inlove..
remember:
to get hurt is what we bargain when we choose to love"..
what a wonderful quote..hope you find it wonderful too..

it is a wonderful qoute indeed but i would suggest that you don't think of it too much. love as if you've never been hurt and act as if it were impossible to fail. just go on with your life as it is , if you love the person, it should be unconditional.

Love and meaningful relationships are always a work in progress because we are in endless cycles of transformational change. Your quotation is wonderful...and a reminder that love comes for a reason...a season...or a lifetime. Wasting time in doubts and insecurites eclipses the joy that is there if we can get over ourselves and allow it to nourish the very fabrick of life itself.
Thanks for posting something that reminds us of love...and what it takes to keep it healthy and strong.

Just getting caught up on responses...and best responses and I noticed yours. Thank you so much. Love is such a beautiful thing to share...and to discuss. You had some interesting comments and appreciate that you enjoyed mine.
Also thank you for your heartfelt wishes around the passing our Tammy and her husband. Your willingness to add to the discussion and answer my comments is greatly appreciated. I have to believe in the power of their love for each other...and trust that it is carrying them safely to a peaceful place.
Warmest regards,
Raia

i don't agree with you can never force your partner to be faithful in the same way that a normal relationship should be i believe you want to be faithful in your relationship that is true love and it can be done it is your true commitment to one another

seldom do people get cheated in a relationship..its part of love..sometimes we must realize that not all cheating is bad though no matter how much you look at it it could never be good on people's eye..but we should not dwell much on the hurt for every person deserves another chance to make up..

its part of life to fall in love and get hurt..if we dont get hurt we will never know how much we love the person..

you are so very right. we have to learn to accept any relationship with the tags it comes then only it will survive. But, i guess, its really tough to trust someone who is open to distrustful activities repeatedly. Love is strange..you can't help it when it has to happen.
Thanks for sharing.

A nice quote but a bit one sided though because it seems that it condones unfaithfulness. However, when you really love a person you just cannot let go easily despite the unfaithfulness of that person because you still love him/her. So just have to do what this quote says.

you are right..it could condone the unfaithfulness but in this world as i may say..the world is full of something to tempt you to commit mistake..so it could be that you go on living a happy relationship rather than minding the mistake that should be put aside specially if he/she is sorry to what happened..it will work out if we let it work out..

Hi angel_of_charm! that is wonderful and beautiful. Life is short to waste on fears and dwell in pain, let us love more and enjoy what life has to offer. Really appreciate those quotes because it somehow reminds me all over again what life and relationship is all about somehow. Take care and have a nice day!

I think it is love.like life,you maybe get hurt,but you also can enjoy it.Love is sweet as honey.In china,love is veiled and classical.but i think love is great to everyone,it can encourage you whenever you meet diffculties .Today i read a poem about love,I share with you.it from india,:You smiled and talked to me of nothing and i felt for this i had been waiting long.i think the poet is Tige,in chinese(???),i'm sorry i don't know his english name.in his eye,love is so romantic and beautiful

yes it the same with life goes with pleasure and pain..and so does love..relationship is not strongly build if people do not make mistake sometime..pain just keep the love strong..because no matter how much painful it is you still find yourself loving and wanting the same person..

yes its a very good quote. There is no assurance in everything... what you have now doesnt mean you'll be holding on for the rest of your life. The world change and so is its people. Your beliefs now may change tomorrow... you cant expect other people to act on normal standard just because you know that thats the way it should be. There are times that things happen and we cant explain why. we cant expect life to be fair always. So we better enjoy the things taht we have while it is there.
Love is something that would cause both pain and happiness. The important thing that we should know is to handle every situation with great understanding as much as possible. There is no re;lationshjip made in heaven... meaning life and relationship have ups and down and you must accept taht its a package when you enter a relationship. There is nothing you can do about it. You must face it and be ready when it arrives. Make the relationship work till the end but if the time comes taht you cant do anything about it...at least you have done your part...
You wont go wrong by being at your best always...

"you can never force your partner to be faithful in the same way that a normal relationship should be.. "
I'm not sure I fully understand this line - what does that mean - in the same way a normal relationship should be. I agree though, you can't force your partner to be anything, if they're going to be unfaithful there's nothing you can do. I think if you don't trust your partner, either your intuition is speaking to you and you should leave, or your letting your own insecurtities and past distrust maybe from childhood rule your heart and your head and again - you should leave the relationship - both situations are poisen - I think trust is a corners stone to a good relationship and without it - the foundation slips.
I agree with
to get hurt is what we bargain when we choose to love"..
Hopefully your partner never hurts you consciously or willingly - however I believe in everything, including relationships we should be warriour. Warriors are brave and strong and what takes more courage or strength then allowing ourselves to be vulnerable - which is exactly what we do when we open ourselves fully and give of ourselves freely.
Thank you so much for sharing angel.
