After finishing the book, Five Love Languages of Gary Chapman (months ago), it helped me contemplate on few facts in life and relationships. I thought, based from my life experiences, it was already enough to make me a better person or should I say, better me in a relationship. But the book helped me understand everything including my attitude towards another individual as well. Here are few of my realizations:
- Relationships are not meant to fall apart, if and only if couple will compromise. Being out of the relationship is solely a choice between two parties if they really don’t really come up with a common agreement.
- Not all men are bastards. There are just some who opt to be difficult and chose to play around.
- Women is a creature who is difficult to decipher but once you get to know her love language, men will surely be head over heels.
- Once in a while arguments are healthy, which serves an avenue to know well each other, an opportunity to kiss and make up and connect with your partner.
- In order for the couple to understand each other, they must speak the same dialect and know each other’s love language.
- Each person has its own flaws and shortcomings but arguments can be avoided if both parties if there is acceptance.
- Sometimes it helps to calm before flaring up and think a hundred times before uttering any word. Hurtful words can never be taken back.
- Time is an element meant to share with someone no matter how busy we are. Again, go back to compromise.
- Don’t expect your partner to do things beyond their capabilities. Expectations will only kill your hopes, which leads to frustrations.
- It is never too late to share your emotions. It might be the start of your ever after.
Now if you think you have a lot to improve with your relationship and want to learn more and understand more your partner in happiness, craziness, and gloom, I recommend reading this book because it really helps a lot.
