    So yesterday, I was taking to my friend, and he was expressing his opinion about relationships!
    He said, if i have a girlfriend and I stay with her for 2,3, or even 4 years & then we get married.. What's left to know about her? there would be nothing left to know about her & life would be boring with no excitement!
    Now that got me thinking! would that be my case with my bf! I mean we have so much in common and we sometimes finish each other sentences and we know our likes and dislikes! I'm enjoying it now very much! But would that be a problem 10 yrs from now!
    Personally, I don't agree!
    But, has that happened to any of u???

    But if that's the case, then ALL the relationships in the world would come to an end! :s
    Plus, who said relationships that start after marriage are always successful!!?

    What you said is very true. i my case, my wife was 12 and i was 15 when we started "hanging out" together. we never dated anyone else. we have never been with anyone else. i am now 42 and she is 39. we have been married 19 years. boredom can be a problem but you have to work at any relationship. you have to find new and exciting things to do when you have been together so long.you hear that marrige ( or relationships) are 50/50. i dont think that is the case. because if one of you slip alittle on your half, then there is a gap for something to slip in and tear it up. you each have to give say 75 % to help offset times when the other one fails. what is giving? just doing what you can to please your mate. trying to make them happy.

    WoW! I agree that relationship should be give and take & it is hard work!
    and on the contrary, I think living together later, we'd discover things we never knew abt each other given that we don't really spend that much time together now!
