I see this thread is back!! I didnt even know that Sandeep had passed a comment.. So ahem.. let me clear my throat and start my speech!! The moral of "Every relationship has its ups and downs" was not derived by reading any stories. I think that statement is self evident. I dont think there is any relation where you dont have some quarrels or maybe times when you just get mad at someone! No matter what the relation is. Lets say me and my best friend have a fight.. does she stop being my friend just because I failed to agree with what she was saying? And there are other instances when you doubt if she is your true friend at all.. hey we are humans we have negative thoughts in our mind once and again... But my point is.. though there are times when we think that things are not going as good BUT once they were perfect.. it might just be a phase. I mean if I had a guy and still thought that he was cute, understanding and all that but we were not able to communicate, then I would not call it quits. I would try to see whats wrong. BUT of course if the relationship is beyond repair, if I dont see myself with him and simply need to be out.. then I should be out. There are somethings that the whole human population feels.. like anger, hurt, love .. and I think that every human also goes through these phases in all relationships. Not trying to generalize... it is already generalized!
