Recent release, ‘Turning 30’, ‘Kuch Love Jaisa’, releasing on 27th of this month are one such movies with every women can connect to. We Women can easily connect with a film that projects our thoughts on celluloid. It is like what’s in your mind, is on – screen.
My sister is married for 14 years now. Everyone calls my sister’s marriage to be a perfect one. But these days, her ‘Perfect Life’, does not seem to be ‘Perfect’. That charm between my ‘sis’ and ‘jiju’ appears to be missing. No more ‘surprise gifts’, no more ‘late night drives’, no more ‘greeting cards’, no more ‘surprise parties’ on each other’s birthdays and ‘Special occasions’, no more ‘appreciation’ about each other’s looks, no more spending ‘time’ to spend with each other, in short, no more ‘Love’ between each other. Is this so? Does the ‘Love’ starts declining year by year of your marriage? Does life becomes so mechanical, that you can’t even think ‘Out of the Box’? why you are not passionate about each other, anymore? Is it so compulsory that you will remain lonely after certain years of your marriage?
Necessarily not. I can quote the best example of my neighbors’; both Husband and wife crossed their seventies. People say the more time you spend with your partner, the more chances you get bored of Him/her. But, I don’t find any such statements applicable in the case of this couple. After almost spending their life together, even today, both of them are so much ‘IN LOVE’ with each other. They spend their day together, they go for an evening walk, they enjoy their ‘Morning Coffee’, they go out on weekends and by seeing all this I envy their Bonding. When asked the same, the couple replied; ‘many couple are losing interest among each other because at every point, they expect something or the other in their partner. Here, expecting something from your Loved one is common but if the same does not turn out to be happening in reality, immediately jumping into the conclusion that your partner is not the correct choice of your’s is absolutely wrong. When every couple start accepting their partner, the way he/she is, respect each other’s emotions, enjoy each other’s company, give each other, the ‘Sufficient’ time required, and most important stop looking for other options to get rid of your partner, then ‘LOVE’ between those couple is always in the air’.
• Why you are not happy with your marriage?
• Why are you looking out for options or being with other person, even when a small thing goes wrong between you and your partner?
• When you know ‘making mistakes’ is a basic Human Tendency, why can’t you accept and forgive those mistakes made by your partner? Are they that big than your marriage?
• When you can accept your partner then why can’t his parents, because of whom your partner is born?
• Why do you compare your partner with anyone? If your partner does the same with you, don’t you feel bad?
• Why don’t you stop craving for ‘Better’ and start being happy with what you have?
• Why there is ‘Nothing to speak’ about ‘you both’, when you both are together?
• On weekends or at free time, why do you run at your friend’s place and any other social gathering? Why can’t you think about spending time together?
• Why you are finding your friend/colleague interesting, why you are compatible with them, instead of your partner?
• Why the ‘Sense of Belongingness’ missing in your relationship?
Do a reality check by asking above questions to yourself. Marriage is all about working out your relationship with your partner, not letting go/bringing back the lost charm, all through your life. It is only ‘YOU’ who can ‘ANSWER THE UN ANSWERED’.
Good Luck!
