Misery, Love, Relationships and Happiness Ever After...Do We Learn From Them or Do We Get What We Ask For?
Reading through the forum of late (and elsewhere), today included, I see lots of posts about unhappy relationships, fear of love and being loved, and a message that the wise, and in particular those honest about it, know that blissful love does not last for long before it becomes 'more realistic' and difficulties arise one way or another. Is this really how it is? Is it possible that some experiences, miserable though they may have been were the product of the choices that person made more so than the fault of love being an impossible thing to attain and maintain?
Is wisdom believing love is only euphoric for a short period of time, or is it believing that anything is possible with the right person, self discipline and self knowledge? Basically, do we learn from our experiences and move forward without carting that baggage into subsequent relationships, or do we continue the choices we have made, turn a blind eye and get what we have asked for by so doing? How do we stop baggage from infecting our relationships in the future? Can D/s and any related forms discussed on this board thrive on in these conditions, both positive and negative? What makes it all possible for you, and what are your expectations once in a long term kink related relationship?
