“just wishing and hoping and praying and dreaming” or “sage advice on an age old question”
A friend sent me this in response to my question “Is love a commitment to stay together no matter what?” A fella told me that once right after I broke up with him and I’ve pondered it ever since
“About the “love is a commitment to stay together no matter what” statement, I think that this statement should not be applied to a relationship until the couple involved have known each other long enough and well enough to see the very worse side of each other. Then, if you can tolerate each other’s worst side without feeling the responsibility to change the other person and you want to spend the rest of your life with that person, then yes, you should make that commitment. The problem that I’ve seen is that too many people make that statement too early in the relationship. Then they wind up with something totally different than what they thought they were getting. Some people don’t really want to wait long enough to find out about the “worst” side. They would rather close their eyes and hope it all works out. Some times it does and some times it doesn’t.”
Another friend sent me this.
“Search your heart with God. You are the only one that can work this out with God. You are a mighty fortress and God’s woman of integrity. God has given you the Holy Spirit to make these decisions. Lean on Him.”
Which doesn’t answer my question at all but does remind me what I should do for the answer to this and all questions.
Love, love, all you need is love, da, da, da, da
but what the heck is it!
is there a rule book
