Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person - Alain de Botton

in #life5 years ago (edited)

Alain de Botton, is a Swiss-born British philosopher and author with an incredible intellect. His books discuss various contemporary subjects and themes, emphasizing philosophy's relevance to everyday life. His Essays in Love, went on to sell two million copies.
        "Do you think you are easy to live with? If you think the answer is yes, and you are Homo sapiens ... you are wrong!" Philosopher and writer Alain de Botton's essay Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person was apparently one of the most-read articles in The New York Times in recent years. As people and as a culture, he says, we would be much saner and happier if we reexamined our very view of love. Nowhere do we realistically teach ourselves and our children how love deepens and stumbles, survives and evolves over time, and how that process has much more to do with ourselves than with what is right or wrong about our partner. The real work of love is not in the falling... but in what comes after.

Hello zpzn
I am very well thank you - you too I hope! Now to your 2 questions ...

  1. I do not know who you will marry! - But IF they are human you may find some, or all of these points may indeed apply.

  2. There is no right or wrong ... only what feels good to you is important!

Have a beautiful day :D

Haha thank you for your answers icedrum :D ;)

Oh goodness. It's so true. I had awful relationships until I embraced the struggle and met a guy who was willing to do that too!!! And the rewards are extraordinary. 17 years later we are SO strong.. and know there might be hard weather ahead but our solid work has paved a way we will get through. X Love De Botton

Hello Riverflows,
I am SO happy you have found that very special someone for you! Absolutely there may occasionally be some hard times for all - but when you can reason and communicate clearly no obstacle is insurmountable!

Have a love filled day :D
