Relationships- Myth Vs Reality

Relationships play a very important role in our life. Perhaps that's why its said that human beings are social animals. But lately as I see around, I feel we either take relationships for granted or are too scared to be in one. 

There was a time when guys used to behave like "Casanovas" and wouldn't mind being in a relationship with more than one women. However of late, I have seen men going any length to make a relationship work.  Broadly speaking, there are two categories of men who exist in this world, one who are kind and emotional and would do anything to make the relationship work. And the second kind would  be those who have been hurt in the past and want nothing to do with commitments. These guys want to live in the moment. Women who meet the second type of men unfortunately fail in their best attempts to make their relationship work.  

Since the time women have started working and being independent, things have alarmingly come to a point where questions are being raised on the need for a man in their lives. The point isn't that we cannot survive without them. At the end of the day, we all need someone to share our day with. Just imagine if our parents would have thought like the way we think these days.

Most of my male friends are these amazing people who are good at heart but had met all the wrong women. I have also known women who are kind hearted, sweet and simple people who give their best to make a relationship work but have met men who have cheated on them and broken their trust. The blog isn't about men vs women. It's just to make my point that people should give each other a chance and not generalize. 

So my advice to all the men and women out there is -- don't give up on love because of your past. Let the past be in the past. If you let it interfere with the present, then it would spoil your present and future.  If you come across people who take you for granted or hurt you, remember Karma is a bitch and I can vouch for that.
