Long-term love in the real world is often a far cry from the idealized couples we grew up watching in movies and TV shows. Romance on screen is filled with grand gestures, chaotic romance, and a constant need for sparks. And while all of that is great for entertainment, when it comes down to the real deal, romantic relationships in real life are a tad bit different.
In real life, it's not just about endless honeymoon phases or perpetual fireworks. To their core, relationships are about joy, challenges, growth, and reflection. And while society made it seem like there's only one way to go about long-term relationships, the truth is that it all comes down to our unique experiences. So instead of teaching young girls to fall in love quickly and marry the first prince you see, teach them about the importance of trials and errors of dating.
At the end of the day, many of us experience multiple relationships, each one teaching us valuable life lessons. These lessons help us mature, heal, and grow emotionally. That is, if we let them be lessons learned.
