Aaaaaah Relationships

Dear You,

The past few days, I have been haunted with questions around relationships. Different issues, same outcome: I want a relationship that works. Easy to say, but hard to compromise... As it is often said, it takes two to tango.

I couldn't agree more with a couple who happen to be one of my best friends, when they say that relationships should be based on trust and honesty. One has to trust the other as not to question fidelity, and the other should be honest so that the fidelity would not have to be questioned. Vice versa... Is it really that simple?

Now, let's see this from another angle... How can you even begin to trust someone who has not been honest? And how can you be honest to someone you don't trust? Aaaaaaah tricky, isn't it... Indeed it is... But there is always a beginning of a process. If you really want the relationship to last, then trust and honesty should be built right from square one... And little shifts should be mended right away, and sacrifices should be made without questions.

But but but... thousands of buts... but then there it is, they should be on your butt!! sit on it, forget it, it's history... If you want it to work, look ahead! This about now and after...

What if one doesn't love the other as much? Another aaaaaahhh... Think it this way... whatever the reason why the relationship stays, then it is good enough to hold on to. Let's hope that one's love is big enough for two.

Tango, shall we?
