Hi Deportivo,
Yes, I agree to a great extent what you've mentioned below. I would
also like to add that it's also up to the individual. Some young
ones grow up still holding fast to the thoughts that they held
during their youth, & tt's probably sad, because they continue
doing the same things, repeating the same errors, maybe?
Love, to me at least, isn't about taking desperate measures: the
"Oh, I didn't change when you nagged at me 50 times in 6 months,
but now that you want to leave me, I'll change within a day!" kinda
thing happens so often, especially when I read the posts with
people going, "How do I get her back? I'm desperate!" etc...
From experience, I realise that those desperate measures don't
last. If a guy/girl really wanted to improve, he/she wouldn't have
waited till you gave up on the relationship to try. After awhile,
they'll revert back to their old ways when they feel comfortable
again.
Hence, I'm so appreciative of my guy, because he makes the effort,
& it makes it so easy for me to reciprocate his attention,
support & understanding. Sometimes we do try to change &
improve, but when we fail, the other will always give a hug &
say, "I love you anyway for trying. Please don't give up, baby",
& it makes it easier to continue improving : )
*Disclaimer: Again, I need to stress that this relationship is NOT
all roses. We DO argue. But we also treasure each other enough to
work issues out.
