Is Love Stil "It"??


Before I get into the crux of the matter I want to let you know that I love love and I’m not a hater but I’m a realist. I have put this view to a number of people and they agree but I am trying to start a worldwide conversation here so please at the end of this leave a comment.
A lot of people want to get married to the right person, we all know there is no perfect one but at least the one you can bear the one you love and it feels so wrong to get married to get married to someone you do not love (movies are doing a great job with the hash tag “true love prevails”) but hunis let’s get real for just a moment ok?
Whether you love a man or not you guys still get to fight, you are still going to get tired of him or her just as EVERY OTHER person in love has, its still going to get to that stage where its going to be the kids fees and books and no longer dates and gifts. Our grandparents played matchmakers for our parents and it seems to have turned out better than our “I will marry who I love” movement. By then the best chance was you liking your spouse and boom…in 9 months time they will come visiting lol.
I am not saying we have to be matched by our parents, I’m saying with the changing times love is losing its base as the prerequisite for marriage. If more than 50% of relationships are results of benefits other than love  then isn’t getting married to someone you love just a bonus since everything seems to happen same whether you love them or not?
Bih Claudine just wants to be comfortable she says “I am no longer searching for love, marriage is a lifetime in the long run other things become more important so I really just want to be comfortable because I think we have all  been in that place where love is not enough.
That’s Claudine’s mind, what do you think? Love or Life????

  1. I think love is necessary but not sufficient, to downplay the importance of love in married life is to weaken its very existence. But to me, love should be the foundation on which to build a house supported by tolerance, perseverance, communication and security....and I think those we end up with have to be our very good friends if not our best friends....
