whenever younger gen ask me about marriage, i always tell them "it is very very easy to start a relation, very hard to maintain...
uh-oh,..we're scaring the gen-x on this, doc, lol[/quote]
actually i encourage them to "not fear" marriage... they have a misconception of looking & looking for their perfect partner in life who does not exist as there is NONE... i told them their girlfriend (yung tunay
) is a potential wife as long as both can accept each other's negative & positive traits, can adjust to each other's differences and are willing to stay together forever for each other thru thick & thins
during the "steady period" i encourage them to act their normal selves as this is the exploratory & discovery stage... to never step the best foot only... to always show what & who they really are... to study what they can be capable of doing in case "rainy days" occur... to focus & prioritize on family & kids forever...
i also encourage them to be monogamous for life
yes, very difficult advices... but do-able
sacrifices have priceless rewards at the end of the road... like having a bright colourful rainbow after the end of each storm...
naku, i am now sounding like a marriage councilor eh i am not a perfect family man myself
this is getting to be a very interesting thread... to be honest, i am -relearning and learning more from you guys as well...
have a bright day mga kapatid
