n Fall In Love

Falling in love is always magical. It feels eternal as if love will last forever. We naively believe that somehow we are free from the problems our parents had. We are assured that we are destined to live happy ever after.
But as the magic fades and daily life takes over, it happens that men, forgetting that men and women are supposed to be different, continue to expect women to think and react the way men do; similarly, expect men to feel and behave the way women do. Instead of taking time to understand and respect each men other, we demanding, resentful, judgmental, and intolerant.
Consequently, our relationships are filled with unnecessary disagreements and conflicts. Somehow, problems creep in, resentments build, and communication breaks down. Mistrust and rejection increases. The magic of love is then lost. Very few people are able to grow in love. Yet, it does happen. As long as men and women are able to respect and accept their differences, love has a chance to blossom. Love is, indeed, magical, and it certainly can last if we remember our differences and respect each other.
