Cupidβs arrows going astray
Mismatched people falling in love
The alliance hardly lasting weeks
Instead of the happily ever after promised
Have a heart and correct your aim
The angel of love, should not be the cause
Of making people suffer with ill suited alliances

so nicely said Sadje. Though I suspect that arrow will do as it pleases, even if aimed precisely ππ

Nice, Sadje! Never rely on arrows or an orchestrated holiday for true love. π

There is an immature kind of “love” that’s quite self-centered. “I love you because you make me feel good about myself.” But often, “As soon as you stop adoring me, when you start pointing out faults and stop making me feel good about myself, I stop loving you.”

I’m afraid so. There’s so much emphasis put on “how I feel” nowadays.

Agree Sadje.
But then I also have different thoughts about that. Love even if doesnβt last for long is an extremely beautiful feeling.
Lasting depends on a lot of things. Adaptability , adjustments and acceptance.
Not to forget the stresses the immediate relatives and the society exerts on the liaison in an attempt to pull them apart.
