These days everyone on facebook or
twitter is a relationship expert. I’m a culprit. Posting all these “positive
remedies” on how to handle relationships but is there really a remedy to a
“perfect” relationship? There’s so much cheating, and people have very little
or no respect for relationships. A common excuse is “you are not married yet so
why are you tying yourself down…” If you cannot respect a relationship you
really think you can respect a marriage? Wait… No one respects marriages
either. Men literally tell you they don’t care when you tell them you are
married and women do the same. The funny thing is these are the very same
people that have a lot to say about the opposite sex cheating and disrespecting
them when things go wrong. I believe if
you know he/she belongs to someone else you have no right to complain about
mistreatment in the relationship. You knew very well what you were getting
yourself into!
With the level of disregard for
other people’s relationships and marriages is it safe to say that our
generation is totally doomed? Will our children experience true love and
companionship?
I was watching Dr. Phil the other
day and people now have “open marriages”!
The couple on the show explained how they have three ways and see other
people. What is the point of getting
married at all if you are going to have three ways and see other people? Why
say those vows? It’s the same with
non-married couples. Why be in a relationship if you do not want to commit to
one partner? You might as well be single. Cheating and all this nonsense of
open relationships and marriages is why we will never be able to control the
spread of HIV and STIs.
There might not be one simple
recipe to perfect relationships and marriages but I know very well cheating and
open relationships are not the answer. People need to respect each other’s
relationships married or not!
