Every couple has it's moments of ups and downs. we are not spared either. Andrea being a perfectionist can be harsh with his words sometimes and me being an Aries, flies into a rage easily thinking he's criticizing me. However, we learned to listen to each other and realised that despite him being critical, he's trying to make me see things sometimes and not act rashly. He as well knows that despite me throwing my tantrums with my fiery temper, I forgive and forget easily. Nobody's perfect and being in a relationship clearly defines that. You are what and who you are, so is your partner. People fall in love cos they feel they are able to grow, learn and accept each other without sacrificing their own identities and self worth. In fact, being with the right person makes you want to be a person. When I say a better person I do not mean changing yourself to suit him or her, it's you already being who you are knowing you can do better.

Most couples think that being with the other person will complete you. Yes I do not deny the fact that I do think that way. I know that Andrea completes me by being that little missing puzzle. Nonetheless, I would rather think we compliment in each other in real life by being good, understanding partners that expect nothing. It is with expectation, especially in relationship that bring disasters. Love do not last with expectations, the more you expect, the more you want, the more you want, the more disappointed you will be just cos you think your partner isn't the one as long as he or she do not live up to your expectation. Love isn't selfish, people are selfish. Always remember, it isn't the gun that kills, it's the person behind the trigger.

Sometimes we do annoy each other but the bottom line is, love bear no grudges. It's about forgiveness and it nurtures. For a relationship to work, always try to put yourself in their shoes, how does it feel if you are treated the same way. When you fight, apologise and mean it : "I am sorry for being a jerk last night becuase I said you were being insensitive when all along it was me just cos I was in a foul mood. Will you forgive me?". There's nothing wrong with apologising, admitting your fault. The greatest of all men, is someone who admit his mistakes and dare to own it up.

L O V E, so simple and yet complicated.
