MATING OF MINDS

MATING OF MINDS

As the woman is evolving into an intelligent and confident person, her priorities are changing. She wants equal partnership in the relationship and an equal say in most matters of importance. No longer is she ready to take a back seat where her marriage is concerned.
Considering the wants and needs of both the man and woman, out of the relationship, it is easy to understand the balanced requirement of respect, individual importance and equality in the institution called marriage.
From this understanding begins the efforts towards a successful relation¬ship. This revelation should form the basis for laying the foundations of marital happiness.
DREAMS AND REALITIES
Once the fundamentals about the male and female expectations are clearly understood, a person can begin making efforts towards creating a suc¬cessful relationship. It is not an easy task to live up to the expectations of anyone. Since no human being is infal¬lible or perfect, it could take a lifetime of working on the matter to bring about some sort of convergence between dreams and realities.
A true mate is one who is capable of visualising your dreams and helps you realise them, to the extent possible. An ideal partner is one who can take the dips and ups with you, laughing and crying, sharing and caring, all through the ordeals and demands of the life cycle.
A marriage has no guarantee period. It is unlike any other deal you enter into. It has the immense potential of being the most reward¬ing and fruitful of all relationships or turning out to be one of the most stressful ones of your life. Neither can one partner carry out the immense task of making it a success, without any contribu¬tions from the other.
