Anger

Agree to disagree does not mean that we just give up on an argument that we feel is important and then hold onto resentment, anger, irritation, frustration or pain because of it. Anger..it is often said that being angry only makes you smaller as a person, while forgiveness literally forces you to grow beyond what you were..

It also doesn’t mean that we give in, say we are sorry, or feel that we have done something wrong in thought or action. It simply means that we understand we will be unable to see eye to eye and that it is okay to just disagree on certain things in life.

It is always best to just let some things go. Being able to realize which things to let go and which things to hang on to is an important relationship skill. If we spend time pretending to agree to disagree just for the sake of making things nice again; we lose our voice, our confidence, and become hesitant and angry about the relationship. If agreeing to disagree is something we can’t really do on the inside; we shouldn’t offer to do so.

Relationships are not meant to make people happy. They are meant to make individuals complete. My happiness will still be my own responsibility to bear.

Relationships are meant to give me the parts that i can never have on my own. That completeness, whether it be built over the time spent discovering one another is what makes our world go round... It makes us feel like we're capable of anything, and why shouldn't it be that way? After all, when deep down inside i hope to know i have someone there to watch over things i cannot handle, when i know that there is so much more to life than i knew by just being myself, how can i not be capable of anything?

That is what relationships should be about. Not the transient feeling of happiness, but the realisation that two imperfect people can create a beautiful, if not perfect whole. Whether or not choose to find happiness from there, is still my own choice, but it's not going to be something given to me when i have someone i love next to me... It has always been something created by ourselves. Whether to choose to create that happiness with the the person that completes my life, is a responsibility that rests solely on my shoulders....
