Searching for a life partner..?


Isn’t it surprising to notice the way individuals commit themselves to others for life with utter joy but regret later? These are the people who soon feel the craving to turn to others, just as they realise they made a wrong choice in haste.

On Sunday, while watching Serendipity I just felt like writing after all why and how we should or shouldn’t choose our prospective partner in life. After all life is not about moving from one flower to another like a butterfly only interested in the nector.

“We shouldn’t marry till we want to spread affection and sense of care in someone’s life instead of just expecting it. We shouldn’t marry anyone for money, as it may go any day. We shouldn’t marry for position, it has its own opportunity cost. We shouldn’t marry someone just beauty, it will fade within a few years and be replaced with a wrinkled face. We shouldn’t even marry someone for his or her romantic approaches towards us, as they often prove meaningless and superficial in actual life.

We shouldn’t accept someone for how he or she looked on special occasions but how that person feels to us in everyday life.
Instead, we must marry the one whom we may like forever spending time with, the one to whom we may turn to as the first or last resort when all things fail, somebody who is not just willing to do something or anything for us but also for whom we are happy doing anything or feel unhesitant giving up even our invaluable thing. For they joy of winning a heart lies in the joy of giving everything we can than just expecting it without gratitude.
