What Matters.
The past week was kind of hellish.
Failed tests, stressed over work, sad over goodbyes, little unhapiness and the list goes on.
The fact that Dani was here helped
But it has also made me realised that work affects the both of us to a large extent.
Then the thought came to me:
Is it wise for us to work together?
Will the problems at work destroy our relationship eventually?
Perhaps it's something that we have to learn to deal with.
Hard but definitely manageable.
That's where our temper and control comes into play.
We had little arguements along the way.
The fiery emotions fired up by the issues at work.
No doubt we worked it out in the end but it left me feeling dissatisfied at the end of the day.
I think I had this idealistic picture of our relationship.
I pictured ours to be a perfect one.
We didn't have any unhapiness until now.
So I was disappointed that the relationship was perfect no more.
And I was afraid that the little bits of unhappy memories would eat into the relationship bit by bit.
But we spoke about it yesterday.
And everything worked out fine.
Through this, I learnt that maintaining a level of openness and honesty in a relationship is important.
Communication should be the rule of thumb.
The reason why many relationships break down boils down to poor communication.
I guess i have been through that too.
I remember how i used to always keep quiet and say nothing when I am unhappy.
I stubbornly refuse to talk even when the ex-bf asked.
But now I make it a point to voice out and to share the unhapiness so that we can talk about it and work something out.
It is always so easy to simply say:" Nothing"
Yet a simple nothing often leads to more unhapiness.
Perhaps the good thing about Dani is that he believes in talking as much as I do.
And he makes the effort to work it out with me.
A trait that I greatly appreciate.
As we move along in life,
We learn to love, to let go, to understand, to embrace.
I have also learnt that when someone good comes along,
Hold on and don't let him/her slip by.
Friends around me are getting hitched.
It's always heartening to see your friends finding their soulmates and life partners.
I can't say for sure that I have found mine
But I feel that there's a possibility that he's mine.
