@AK-jt7kh4 жыл бұрын
Definitely not the best advice ever -_- ....Sometimes no matter how much you change, it's never going to work. Following that advice kept me in a relationship with someone who was cruel to me for quite some time. I kept telling myself that "it takes two to tango" and "when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change" - advice like that. I'm not saying it isn't good advice sometimes, but simply being determined to make things work, and accepting responsibility for everything under the sun because you have high expectations for yourself, but not others, is not going to work for you if you get snatched up by someone who is controlling and wants to use your morality against you. Be careful who you date. A bad person can have a terrible affect on not only your self-esteem, but on your physical health. Luckily, I got out of my relationship much more quickly than some women. Other women I've talked to have serious health issues as a result of chronic stress and depression, and they can't get their health back. Here's the lesson I've learned. Always take responsibility for yourself, and seek to change and grow. Be a good person, trust in others, and be honest. But give the other guy three serious strikes. If someone repeatedly proves to you that they don't deserve your compassion, support, and your willingness to change for the sake of the relationship, and if they don't demonstrate the same in return, then you need to be very firm with yourself and leave. No excuses. No looking back. No "I just need to try harder" or "I just need to wait this out because once x happens we'll be happy". There's a lot of canned advice like that which ended up not working for me in the long run. There's some truth to all of it, but insofar as I've seen, none of it is universal.

I bet he quietly worked his heart out for her and the kids, without saying a word about it.

I mostly agree but sometimes keeping things in and dealing with anger and frustration on one's own is quite harmful as well. So if the partner refuses to listen it can be healthier for the person that is frustrated to let it out. It is probably better to talk to someone unrelated (for examples on free hotlines related to mental health and understanding) to simply vent though.

Anggie Aveneina Anggie Aveneina Tbh, I kind of understand why it is like that now. We've become a workaholic-culture who strives after more and more money, (therefore we work more and more hours and don't have much free time to date) so we can be stable and secure in our lifes later on (bec old people can't work). Also I feel like men and women have been divided and everything feels like we need to "one up" each other. Also people don't want longlasting relationships anymore bec = more stress and = more responsibility. I mean if I looked at it it from my perspective, I didn't want to "date" or even worse "marry" someone, bec I don't really feel secure in my own emotional lvl yet, or better worded; I don't feel like a real "grown up" yet. I don't know if I want to take the risk and date someone. I feel so overwhelmed by everything and I can't be the only one feeling like that. Also a lot people are scared of the opposite gender, either they are being "scary men who could do bad stuff" or "bad women who are gold diggers, who want to falsly accuse everyone". This world is scary and people are being more afraid of news and just everything. Everyone dislikes each other, but "flexes" at the same time bec of their new possessions. Also I feel like the new generation (the "new adults", starting at 18) are being pushed so hard, that literally all of them have that "melancholic blues" that they feel like giving up any moment (I saw a small comment section where literally 10 people were like "did you guys feel like after 2013 everything is turning more and more downwards?"). I don't even know anymore and maybe I'm being scared a lot, but god dear I hope some understands what I mean and I don't sound like a maniac.

@@yoonginavy4967 Thank you! My mum has learnt to deal with lots over the years. I actually participate much more in Russian culture and visit every year, yet because I'm mixed-race I obviously look different and it's frustrating to be treated as inferior or to be automatically assumed to be more Asian because of my appearance (I actually ended up looking Filipina!). Best of luck in Russia, hope all is well :).

As a young person, I feel like young people have more trouble in their relationships now because they expect too much of their partners. They believe in trying to change them or control them, and in some cases are looking to just create a carbon copy of themselves. I feel that we should choose to accept a person as they are if we truly love them. Obviously no one should stay in an abusive relationship, but you must go into a regular relationship with the intention of trying to make it work.

Arranged marriage isn't too different than online dating, the only difference is your family helps you look at different profiles. I met my fiancee from an internet match making site,we did the photo exchange, and met with the intent of marriage. We just didn't have family pick out the profile.

In a tedtalk I watched today in India 70% of divorce comes from love marriages rather than arranged marriages. I think the problem is that we place our happiness in the other person and it's not about partnership anymore. It's not a person you're walking through life together with but a person responsible for your happiness and that can be very detrimental.

Oooh this is such a good point! Same, when I was younger (I grew up in the US) I always thought that arranged marriages were oppressive, regressive, and backwards...I thought that the only "open-minded" belief was to promote self-chosen marriages while bashing arranged marriages, even though I didn't even understand what arranged marriages were. (I thought they were all coercive, when in fact most are just family recommendations!) I'm also glad I'm gradually unlearning my Western prejudice and actually understanding what I've always been taught to see as "oppressive."

I saw many arranged marriage tend to be made to connect family with similar life styles or practice, if not just better reputation and/or financial wise or is known to have practice that generally generates success in said co-relation. Many I met tend to have little time to find someone themselves, near end of time clock or trust their parents to try to find someone who would prioritize and take care of them especially when they are gone.

These men are wonderful husbands. Talking about mutual respect and being there for their wives. So far, my husband and I show the same respect and love each other like best friends do. But I fight hard to avoid the tendency to behave the way my parents do with each other. Disrespectful and cruel to one another. I wish after all these years, they would be able to treat each other like these couples do. They seem like really wonderful people. I wish them all the happiness!

I think I understand why arranged marriages have a good reputation: because both the personal relationship and formal commitment start approximately at the same time. You get to know your spouse without the baggage of a shared past or the anxiety of whether marriage will result. So in a secure state such as this, you don't project as much judgment, worry, or distrust onto the other person.

Some "arranged" marriages do work out, although a lot are awful. Friends of mine had an arranged marriage; they hated each other for the first two years and then gradually started to bond. Today they are very happy, and as she has developed serious health problems, he takes very good care of her. The care that comes with love and devotion.

My great grandmother's marriage was not so much arranged, as it was forced. He snuck into her room at night and laid next to her (without her knowing). Her parents found him in her room, thought they had sex, and forced her to marry him. They eventually fell in love, but I can't forget how creepy that was.

I had tears in my eyes as I was watching this. Wow their attitudes are so beautiful for an arranged marriage! I learned a lot and if I can only have half of the attitude and wisdom they have, my marriage would be much better. My husband's parents are Nigerian and their marriage was arranged. They've been married 50+ years. My parents didn't have an arranged marriage and they were married until my father died but the attitude was different. What the couples asked for in their marriage was very simple and very important in a relationship. I'm black American and my husband is Nigerian and we're nowhere close. :) I LOVED THIS SEGMENT. I took a lot from this. Thanks for posting!!!

I think that the biggest point wasn't their arranged marriages but how they handled them. When hearing the stories, there was something that most people seem to forget. Acceptance, patience, and understanding. Getting angry and having those shouting matches isn't the end, its a point where taking a step back and getting to the underlying issue is the most important. Whether it works out after or not depends on the efforts of both.
