(via Psychology Today’s recent cover story, “Are You With the Right Mate?”)
“…Romance itself seeds the eventual belief that we have chosen the wrong partner. The early stage of a relationship, most marked by intense attraction and infatuation, is in many ways akin to cocaine intoxication,…
People are always searching for the “right one” expecting things to be perfect and although they might be for awhile, that bliss period does end. You want someone that’s going to be there for you and be willing to work through things even when things are hard. Love isn’t built on similarities, but on the willingness to accept differences.
