Complexity ?

Being in a relationship isn't as easy as it seems.

You know.initially,i thought being in a relationship was easy stuff.
You know,"I love you,You love me." that kinda story.

Well,i was COMPLETELY,ABSOLUTELY,MOST CERTAINLY A 100% wrong.
It's been about 4 months i've been in a relationship,and to be honest,i'm the only one who seems to be messing up.
And it kills me!

You won't believe it,but i used to think being in a relationship is a piece of cake - easy to dig into.
But what i didn't realize is that relationships are like cakes,yes. But not ready made ones!

You have to make them from scratch. 
You have to go through rough phases! Maybe it'll be sour,or sweet. None the less,you have to bake it yourself,right ?
If you want results,you work towards them.

And in the past few days,i've got this "relationship 101",from a wise person.
My mom. 
You know,i've realized that life through another person's eyes,is completely different.
When you look at life through another person's perspective,you realize so much.

What's more is,when you look at yourself through another person's eyes!
You realize how wrong you are and in how many ways you have or could hurt this person.


I suppose i never really thought my actions would hurt my partner.
But the other day,i did something wrong and i didn't understand why it hurt him so much.
But when i thought about it and looked at it from his perspective.
And i thought to myself,"Oh good lord,I've fucked up real bad."

It's then that i realized that it isn't as easy as it seems. 
And it's gonna take time to work towards it.
But then again.,isn't that love?
Working together,eliminating unwanted things,and finally reaching a sweet sweet outcome?

So yeah, I've learnt the following :
1.Think about how your decisions will affect the other person.
2.How will this affect your future with the other person!
3. YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE OTHER PERSON. YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY PERSON IN THE RELATIONSHIP.
4.Eliminate unwanted people.

That's The relationship 101.
Well,i still have a 97 other things to learn. But this should be a good start,right ?
Go fall in love and perfect your relationships everyone!
Blessed be xx
