Me and my other friend were chatting about relationship and love when one of oyr friend told us that "when we fall seriously in love, we always wish the feeling would mutually grow and stay forever. But sometimes, no matter how perfect a relationship may seem, and how many months or years you've been together..people change and forget their promises of forever". She's telling that to us for us to be prepared of everything when we started a realtionship.

Yes being prepared helps. It can be a total shock if a couple are in a relationship and expect for things to always be like when they first started in a relationship. Relationships take time, effort, and energy, and commitment to stay strong and last. In the beginning of relationships people are willing to make that time for each other. As months and years go by we have to be careful that the daily grind of things doesn't cause us to forget about what's really important.

My dad did warn me that, saying that being in relationship with someone doesn't means that the relationship will last forever. Being in relationship is to get to know each other better to see whether he/she is the right one for you or not. When time pass and you see that he/she is not the perfect match for you, then its obvious that the relation as lover will end. And I know that from millions of people seeking the right one for you is definitely not easy and it's probably took very long time and at least several times you went in relationship. The one whom find his/her perfect match with the first relationship must be incredibly lucky person on earth.

If you fall in love to the right person, then it would be forever. Though the hardest part is knowing if he/she is the right one. What can you do to know it? Of course you should know his personality, what kind of person he/she is. Know how he/she treats other people. Also know what other people say about him/her. Also choose someone who is faithful and stick to one. And also choose someone that can accept you for who and what you are, despite of your flaws and weaknesses. Though even if you already found someone like that, it still doesn't guarantee that he/she is the right one. But this is the most important, as long as you are putting God in the center of your relationship, then forever love is truly possible. We should keep our faith in God and our relationship. Always ask for His guidance and presence. But if time will come that you cannot stop the relationship from ending, then at least you know to yourself that it's not you who done wrong and you are not really meant for each other. And in that case, maybe God has reserved the best one for you which still yet to come. What important is always be good, so that whatever happen, your conscience is clean. :)
