How I see a relationship

I have gone through a few rough spots with my guy and one of the things that has gotten us through is our commitment and loyalty...our love. Right now times are tough for us. There are a lot of people in our lives that seem to be trying to come between us for one reason or another. We have been fighting a lot lately and sometimes it gets really hard and I question whether or not this is all worth it. Every night I look at this amazing man and I tell him that I love him. We talk before bed, we share. We each share something the other did for us that made us smile that day and we share something that hurt us or was upsetting in some way. These conversations make it rather difficult to go to sleep angry because we are getting it out and communicating whether we want to or not. Every morning we wake with the knowledge that this is a new day. We know that when we leave our room we will have to face the world again. I tell him I love him and I make a promise each day. I am not one to ever break a promise so I only make promises that I know I can keep. I promise him that today I am his, tonight I am his, and tomorrow morning I will still be here. The promise reinforces how I feel and lets him know that I still love him and want him. We don't have it easy, but we love each other so much and I know that we can make it through.

I think that communication is absolutely key in a relationship. This is the very reason why a lot of long distance, or online relationships work out. As long as both parties are being honest, it is very hard to not get to know someone and to not communicate when words are mainly all you have. Many couples take that for granted when they are face to face. Lets say you go out to meet someone, when you meet someone for the first time you are judged by how you look above all else. Within the first 30 seconds you decide whether or not to pursue anything further, where as with a phone call, or an online conversation, you get to know the person first before making judgement. I think that this ensures a stronger bond. All too often, people get caught up in looks, but in 50 years, what will you have left... two wrinkly people with faulty foundation and crappy communication that don't get along. I think that no matter how hard it seems, as long as you keep the communication highways open, then your foundation will remain strong and your relationship could surpass any rough patches you may find.

if you and him are in love dont worry. but why people are putting themselves in the middle if you and him are so close? if love each other and share everything. anyway continue always talking openly to him. that way you guys can always solve your problems well. talk well with each other will help your relation to grow even more. all will be ok as long as you and him are honest^^ and care much. the best for you^^

Just keep your faith and love and trust and comunication open with eachther. Some times you have to go through bad times to get to the godd and there will be more bad times than 1 or 2. I went through a whole world of crap all the way up untill I got married. Really the best thing is comunication. Set times or dates to talk freely that way you don't have it pop up in times that are not appropriate. You should NEVER go to bed angry, It can only worsen a problem. I wish you good luck in your relationship. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
