We have seen so many couples that have dated for so long. These couples end up only disappointing each other. On the other hand there are some that have made it to the end. So, we completely can’t say its wrong or right. The only question to ask is why go so far only to stop along the way?
Where the problem is;
The number one issue with dating for so long is that people get familiar with each other and start thinking maybe they should jump into another relationship. So many mistakes are made during that time just because the two think their love has lost the spark it had in the beginning.
Why would you throw away so many years because of what you think you feel. The problem is, people think love is founded on feelings which is completely wrong. Love is a decision that surpasses all kinds of feelings. Truth of the matter, feelings will always keep jumping here and there but when one makes a decision to love, they will make sure to stay even when they feel they should go.
How you date will determine the type of marriage you will have. Commitment doesn’t start in marriage, it starts the moment you start dating because if you can’t commit when you don’t have to then how about when you have to. Am not saying you should never walk away, but that should be the last option, when all odds are against you!
The issue may not be how long you date though it matters but date with a purpose. Why would you date a person that you can’t marry at the end? Love is not at complicated. It’s the people involved in it that are. Especially because of their endless expectations that they themselves lack. Stop looking for a super human in your partner and yet you yourself have your flaws as a person.
