[quote=ROGERINCA ,23496]Another great topic !!All of you have added so much to this thread with your thoughts and ideas !!It is so interesting for me, as a western man, to read the thoughts and dreams of the woman and men of the eastern culture. In that regard, I feel that we are all so very close in what we want, need, and dream of. I believe that for the most part, people are people, the world over.Having said that, I think we are all individuals and even as a man or a woman, we each have a different outlook and level or intensity of romance and the feelings of romanticism. A man and a woman, in life together, and the children they bring forth, is about a relationship. It is about sharing. It is about shared experiences. It is about trust and loyalty and fidelity and building a life together. Life alone, is just that……life alone, it is lonely !! It is so one dimensional and so unfulfilling. I am biased, because I am a romantic. But notwithstanding, I do think, a good and loving and reciprocal long-term relationship is better for most, than living alone or in a series of short to mid-term relationships. Moreover, it is natural to want to enhance that feeling of sharing to include the creation of children. One should not endeavor to have children to make the relationship ‘better’, but to enhance a relationship which is already very good and which has a solid foundation.But one must understand, a relationship that is lasting, is a full time job. One must work at it daily. If neglected by either person, it will surly wilt and fail. Both individuals must be mature enough and tenacious enough to understand the dynamic and be willing to work at the relationship and tend to it continuously. Sometimes, the grass in not really greener over the next hill. Sometimes, what one already has is what is best and what is worth working for and fighting for. Why can’t the feelings of love of today, burn just as warm tomorrow and ten or twenty years from now !!?? Sometimes, when one becomes more mature and experienced in life, one learns these lessons. This is one broad subject: relationships, love, family, children, romance, etc, that I could talk about page after page, and surly bore all of you to death !!! :) :)[/quote]
