Nowadays, more and more couples divorce. The reasons are common: the husband has another woman outside, or the wife has another man. They don't really hate each other. they just happen to meet another person they feel in love. This condition is very common to happen. So do you think we have to carry on if this things happen to you? Will you choose to divorce or hide this thing and carry on with your wife or husband? It is hard to face if things really happen to you. My good friend has the same thing. it doesn't mean that she doesn't love her husband any more. But just because she met another man that she really loves. The love is so strong that she can't stop it. And sure, she hides it from her husband. But she often feels guilty . and don't know what to do. she loves her family especially her son. My friends, what will you choose if that happens to you?

Hi sarahlqf, i think true love really stays forever, thats why we should be certain first of our feelings before we marry a man. We should be sure that whatever happens we will still be together. Both should exert more effort to keep the love burning. In cases where they found new love,then i think they should not punish themselves staying with their partners. Most of the times there are reasons why couples fall out of love. Financial is one, other reason is failed expectations. So if your are not happy with your partner anymore, why stay and be miserable for life?

Although I have not married now,but I understand that the marriage is found of trust,understand and communication to each other.If you still love your spause really,and the same to your spause,you can even know why your spause would love other person,maybe he/she don't really love others,they just complain you don't give ear to she and don't trust them.
On the other hand,I think it's normal for person to love others,because different person have diferent virtue,even I believe that it's human's nature.So the key of this question is not whether your spause can love others,but it's you should really know whether and how your spause still love you. If you believe you still love each other,then the question will be easy.

...Hi sarahlqf, Marriage is a great situation, but I think, you must want, to stay married. What that means to me, is that you have to get up each day and say to yourself that I will continue to love this person that I married. I will stay committed to this marriage. That can be tough, but it is possible, if both people want to keep the union. It means caring and consideration for and of the other person. People love people and people fall in love with people. Most of the time, I think people fall out of love with their partner, but still love them. So it is then possible to fall in love with someone other than their husband or wife. Then you have to decide, do I stay and try to rekindle that "in love" thing, giving value to the years and children that are a part of that relationship, or do you cast it all aside for a flight of fancy that has made you feel so good. Tough, but this is life, so the individual must decide what would be best in their life, hopefully which ever choice is made, the other person will still be there, after that choice is made. Just a few thoughts. Take care.

True love can stay forever if both husband and wife have a transparency for their works. Then there should be proper orientation in your rules and regulations as husband and wife. Attend seminars or other organizations that would make your relationship lasts longer. You must also both deal on religious aspect in your life.
If it would happen to me, I must talk to my wife about what had happen. Openness is very important. Remember if you really love a certain persaon you must say all the things to her. Do not wait until such time she would know your secret. This would not make you relationship into successful one. To divorce is not one way to solve your problem. MAybe you should ask also some advices from an expert one, I mean an expeienced person who could solve that kind of problem.
Happy mylotting!

Hi Sara
I must say now a days its divorce are increasing day by days because of this reason.Some couple do arrange marriage & some do love marriage, as per my knowledge in arrange marriage people do know each other much & they have to comprise on everything, i think this may distract their mind & so they go for searching someone who will make them comfortable & feel good.
Happy mylotting ^_^

Although there are days when I feel 1000 years old, my wandering inner child always returns, laughing, and asks me to dance through the next day with her, and the next…

Kling gave a very good answer to you. Love takes working on..it doesn't stay the same as when you are young. It's more physical when you are younger. But, once you step out of the boundries of marriage and cheet, you are doomed. All trust is gone, and all kinds of confusion set in. People have to work at staying happy. I'm with my husband 32 years, and still very much in love, but we both work on it by comunication and thoughtful things for eachother.

Its hard to be with one person for so many years I think. Things can get boring or stale. Both husband and wives are usually working and they meet new people and one thing leads to another after awhile. I just sometimes think because we live so much longer these days that it shouldn't be that we stay in one relationship forever. Unless its what both parties want. I think maybe a marriage based on 10 years and when that is up if you want to renew your vows you do so. If not divorce. I think that might work better for alot of people.

I have been married twice. Once to a man who was not willing to commit and put his family first. and now, to a carng, honest, committed family man. In these two experiences, I can see that love is a choice. both people have to make the choice and commitment to love the other all the time and not just when it's easy. there are hard times in life and that's the main reason to have someone to share it with, so that you don't have to go through those times alone.
Unless, someone is willfully choosing not to stay committed and stand next to their spouse through life, issues can usually be worked out.

Relationships are really complicated for me i believe love can last forever all it takes is for both parties to be committed to make it happen.Yes true love does exists forever and it is interesting that sharing experiences in joy rather then sharing stress helps to keep the feelings alive.

Well, i feel that children and love for the partner would complicate the matter terribly. To chose between the responsible alternative i.e to stay with the family try to make it seem stable and thus raise your children well or to go with the feeling, the passion that burns within you. Love versus responsibility is a very difficult choice and in the end one should do what one feels is right. If this were to happen to me, yes i would hide my affair and make sure my family stays stable and my children grow up in a healthy environment

Sometimes, a love can be forever. But that love usuall break when you're young.

I do believe that love can stay true and stay true forever. It is however how you handle things that will make it work or lead to divorce or cheating. Love changes and you go thru changes as you get older. For me it is how much you love that person. If it is "true love" you will fight for it and not allow others to sway you and the way you want your life to be.
I also believe personal morals plays into relationships too.

When a couple go on separate ways its because they both gave up to what they thought was forever. Nothing will last forever if you don't work for it. Its important to have love in your relationship and also friendship. Because when love fails you always have your friendship to fall on to.

I dont know why people tag love for lust.. Is it not a lust of thinking a new man/women after entered into a relationship like marriage. I feel its not a love.. its just a desire and lust to have the opposite person. This is most common thing happens when there is a lack of love between people when they are in relationship.
One have to try to solve this problem must give good bridge to over come the distance. The travel give experience to the couple how they should be with good life. Love can be happen between any one.. but once its binded with relationship then, that sense more. We should respect to our relationship to boost the value of love in it.

hi friend, i believe in love in this world, i believe love can last forever till life ended. why do i have this sort of feeling? maybe i have seen too much love movies, i often be moved by the plot and the heros in the movie. i am jealous of their beautiful love. i believe in my deep heart that i could have one love me forever and of course i will love him in my whole life.

Hi friend
you have cited very genuine situation.as a husband or wife ,anybody can fall in love.
but I suggest one should not allow oneself to fell in love ,if you are in a happy marriage and that too with kid.As I think Its too late for love now.May be a husband or wife might have found true love ,but it can hamper many lives.It can disturb the family and above all the life of a kid.where he will stand in the end,,It is a main concern.
