Choosing between your partner and your parents is one of the toughest decisions you can ever make. Beware, there is no happy ending here. But that is life is all about, isn't it? Life never is a simple thing despite of its short spun.
People fall in love all the time and fall out of it very often too. But once in a while you meet someone who makes your heart race when you stare at her. You learn suddenly, this is love in the purest form and maybe all your life you lived having a wrong definition of love. And you know, you should not let it go. Love us the most important thing after all to keep living with a comfortable warmth in your heart.
But sometimes, the one who makes your heart race, doesn't seem to impress your parents. While why should choose your parents over your love can be discussed another day, here are five reasons why you should prefer your girlfriend over your parents..
1. Because it's your life and you want to spend it with her
Admit it. You weren't alive few years back and you will be dead again soon. Of the millions of years of earth, you are here only for a fraction of time. You are alive for a few seconds, and if these seconds you don't live your life on your own terms, what is the meaning of being alive.
2. Because you are not going to live with your parents always
You are not going to live with your parents always. This is the greatest truth. You need someone to spend your life with. And you know she is the best choice of yours. You should not die in regrets and lonely.
3. Because you are more connected with her
You and your parents are connected by flesh. Sounds big, right? But here is the thing, when you look at her, you know, though she was a stranger once, she is more you. Whatever your souls are made up of, you and her is made up of the same thing. There is an unbreakable yet unseen string passes through her heart and yours. And you are more connected to her than your parents.
4. Because she understands you unlike your parents
While your parents seem to not agree with your choices and call you a naive and a fool who is making blunt choices, she keeps her hands on your shoulder and tells you that she agrees with you and she has faith in you. It may be any decision regardless if it is connected with her or not. Often, when the decisions you are making are indeed poor, she tries to make you understand, and the magic here is, while your parents fail to make you understand, she seems to divert you with such swift that you fall in love with her for saving you.
5. Generation changes
Your parents belonged to a different era and you belong to a different one. And there is a certain chance of conflict of perspectives. They might be more orthodox and conservative, while you might be someone who wants to leave behind what is not correct. They might be emotionally attached with their way of life and try to blend you in their terms, you but is a completely different person. And you can be sure that living with them and in their terms for a great part of your life would be suffocating and a bad choice, while she, as I have already mentioned, is more you.
