The Stupid Cycle of Romantic Relationships
And it’s amazing how we keep rinsing and repeating.
It is absurd. The cycle of romantic relationships is absurd.
Exhilarating at the beginning, depressing at the end.
You meet someone for the first time.
The sparks fly.
The eyes meet.
The jokes fleet.
Tears, laughter, goosebumps.
The passion.
The intention.
The impression.
The connection.
The promise of love everlasting.
Then you decide to be with each other. Give whatever “electricity sparks” between you a name: Marriage, relationship, partnership, or whatever.
It’s nice. The first months, they are nice.
Then you have your first fight, and everything seems to go downhill from there.
Continuous fights.
Hurt.
Tears.
Heartaches.
So much begins to be left unsaid,
In a bid to avoid misinterpretations that lead to fights.
Animosity and strife begin to build.
