Has being in love made you restless??


When the moment dawns, we say that ‘Love is in the air’. Our hearts start pounding faster, the very thought of our loved one, puts shivers down our spine and we indeed never cease to smile even at the slightest provocation. Love does make the world go round. But happy times end soon and a strange sense of emptiness creeps in. We grow restless with time, as if our love is not being answered. We itch long to have carefree delights of passion, to fall in love all over again, just for the feeling…

This is the plight of most of us today. Men may say that we women, are a bit too meditative about the concept of love but no, we are what god made us, what he wanted us to be – delicate, brittle beings, born to love.

Unfortunately reality speaks a different language. Once in a relation, we often tend to nurture our simplest of actions with utmost care and concern, only to make sure that our beloved never feels otherwise. Expecting the same in return is but obvious likewise. We crave for love that entices us to feel the thrill of passion through even the most basic actions and gestures. But as time passes, we see that the fire looses its warmth. Talking to your beloved becomes a monotonous ritual. Being around doesn’t make a difference and gradually the enthusiasm to share even your thoughts with him, diminishes. The ‘unspoken’ understanding, which you thought would flow in naturally never really comes.So your quest to find true love remains unfound and you soon find yourself moving from relationship to relationship always in search of what you only find in the beginning.

Well, the lacuna lies in our understanding of things. Expecting love in the same earnest as ours will never, and I mean NEVER bring our partner to do what we like. You may even try complaining but it will only breed relentless arguments for your partner still fail to understand your urge.

True long-term love requires more than just being there. It requires that you invest your energies in understanding your partner’s mental makeup, act in ways that inspire deeper sharing, learn ways to communicate appreciation and most importantly be patient when things don’t work out as you thought.

Our relationship is like a garden and our love its roses – beautiful, fragrant, free yet unpredictable in its growing, always surrounded by thorns. We often tend to ignore these thorns as they don’t seem visible but with time they start causing us pain. The challenge lies in getting inside your partner’s skin and communicating your bit his way. Have compassion. Arrogance can never help you win your partner. Serving your thoughts with a smile and at the right time will invariably break the ice and open a new genre of understanding for you. You’ll finally draw comfort in the safety of your relationship and achieve your dreams with your loving partner by your side.
