I was talking to one of my besties the other night, and I am starting to wonder if my expectations are too high. Do I deserve to have my expectations so high? One of my other besties the other day told me, "marriage is hard, and it definately is not the fairy tale that it is made out to be, it takes alot of work." So now I am coming to the conclusion that I must give up on this fairy tale dream of happiness that I have wanted all my life.
Yet, I think more (which I do too much), and I have come to a conclusion. Marriage is hard, and it does take alot of work. But you can still have that fairy tale love and equal relationship. I think that if you truely do love each other unconditionally and you are commited equally, then it will make the hard things alittle easier. And there is the cheesy saying, "love conquers all." I have come to believe that I would take being in love unconditionally and being equal partners going through hard times, rather than staying with someone for the wrong reason and never being complete. That is my goal and my dream. I want someone to treat me the way that I treat them, and I want them to just love me so much that they would do anything, unconditionally. When you love each other that way, you have a fairytale, no matter the economic struggles or outside world. You are the exception....... I want to be the exception......

That's insane! It's not unrealistic to want a happy life. Marriage is hard work and when you work hard, you want to enjoy the rewards - a happy life. Life is too short to want anything less than you deserve.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Mandy. You can be happy and the first step to finding that happiness is not settling for anything less! If life isn't what you had hoped for, then make it happen. You deserve it, as does everyone! My grandmother always said, "everything happens for a reason" and I believe it whole heartedly! And one day you will realize what that reason was and smile!
