That
is one mistake that most couples make. They tend to look upon their friends and
their spouses as separate. While it is perfectly ok to have your own friends,
your best friend should always be your husband or wife.
It should be someone you can share your dreams
and fears with, someone who understands, someone who can give your hand a
gentle squeeze when things go wrong and someone who can brighten up your
darkest day.
All
this is a very far cry from sex right? That is why we did mention earlier that looks
and sex should be the last criteria in the selection of a life partner. The
marriage proposal must come as a natural sequence and it should by no means be
the first thing that comes out as soon as you warm up to a person. You cannot
very well say something like, “hey, you know what, I think we have the same
tastes so let’s get married.”
You
can say that of course but it would not be in very good taste. So what do you
do if you discover that one of the friends that you made and the one who you
were keeping your fingers crossed about is already married?
Do
you have a car? Then the answer is simple, just run over that person’s spouse
and remove the unwanted element, right? Wrong! It is just not done. You can
still be friends with that person and shift your attention towards another
direction. Who knows, you might even find a better person. All you have to do
is shuffle your cards and deal them out again.
