Plagarising.

Let me plagarise, but I shall state my source.

"There is no need to lose what you have or whom you are in a relationship. It takes two individuals to make a couple. Yes you may understand me, but can you accept me? The key is when you know the difference between the two." Quoted from Anonymous femme.

Quoted from Eric's friendster profile.

It is definitely very true that it takes two different individuals to make a couple. If the two are too similar in one way or another, maybe things would be dull at times? But again, different people have different perspectives to this issue.

For me, I don't really bother myself with whether our characters match well, or they clash. You cannot determine the stability of a relationship based on just the characters. Throw in some essential ingredients like trust, compromising and communication and perhaps things are good to go. How about the flaws then? Don't get bothered about it. Because it is just that special something that covers up the flaws flawlessly. So much so that sometimes, you just don't see any flaws anymore.

How about discussing the issue of obligation in a relationship? Definitely there are some forms of obligation, but they should be obligations out of love. Things like "I should tell her I am out with my female friend." And this kind of obligation is respectable.

Let me "change" my sex into a female for now: "Do I owe my partner anything at all when I receive gifts? Do I feel obliged to be with him since he put in the effort to make and give me things? Anyway I do feel for him also."

Some people say "Yes."

No. This is not the way to do things. Very wrong thinking.

Talking about responsibility and fairness in relationships: Yes, one must be responsible for the words being said. What had been promised should stay the way it is, otherwise things would be unfair especially when there are no obvious reasons for breaking the promise. Principles of morality.

Then consider again; How about the efforts that had been put in by someone from the past, whom you might still have feelings for? Wouldn't you be more irresponsible to the person from the past then? Wouldn't it be more unfair to that person looking at the fact that he did so much more than the new guy?

Is that what we call 喜新厌旧?

I always think that the world is unfair, and I know that it is true now. I shall prepare my proposal for orientation again.

Good night to those reading my blog in the wee hours and good morning to those who are reading it the next morning.
