how far can you go in accepting the person you love?

LOVE means ACCEPTANCE. That is why when we love, we don't choose. It is simply because our heart beat for that person without any reason at all.

this has been always a debatable issue between two lovers... but I think it depends on how the person approaches his/her partner. Maybe through asking or giving advices in a soft, gentle voice, who couldn't resist that? hehe ; ) anyway, two couples should talk about this matter peacefully-- understand the other person is one way of having a strong, long lasting relationship. Love well and decide well coz you might end up one day to become a lonely, loveless person for choosing a wrong decision. ^_^

I beleive everyone has good and bad both qualities and a person who really wishes to maintain the relationships with a long lasting effect should accept a person;s good and bad both qualities.Iam not saying to accept any nuisance or a bad character person but if a person has small bad qualities of getting short tempered or getting egoistic then it can be conquered by patience and through slowly and gradually improving him.In such a case where a person is not quitting smoking I feel few days one should stop giving him lectures or arguing with him.After few days when he will realise that Iam not prompted again and again and I have responsibility towards the other persons feelings he will automatically try to improve himself.Fighting or arguing doesnt works sometimes but silence and patience always works

accepting comes with love, but that doesn't mean you have to tolerate his wrong doings. you don't argue but you tell him your opinion in a polite way, you do this also because you love him. you don't expect him to change at once try to help him little by little.
