Life partner v/s Spouse

Last night I was chatting with a friend of mine thru texts and the track turned on this topic. So the question was what kind of girl guys prefer as their life partner? Someone who’s a “brain girl” or someone who’s a “doll girl”.



Same question I asked to my other male friends… All of them replied different attributes for their life partner. Some said, she should be beautiful with good nature, some said someone who can understand individuality. Some wanted emotionally intelligent partner, some were ready to negotiate for beauty or brain, if the girl has good amount of either.



But then my mind got one more question. That was, do people always get what they want? As in, is the person you are married to; has the same quality as you’d dreamt about?



Looking at the lives of some of my married friends, I would say it is not so all the time. Some of my friends have really got what they’d dreamt about, but few said that for them, life partner and spouse have been two different things. If given a choice they’d prefer to go with their “life partners” rather than their “spouse”
But isn’t it like we have to accept whoever is “written” in our destiny (I don’t know what kinda invisible ink they use, coz I need that ink for my exams :P )?
I can’t understand, why people get all ready to leave what they want to or what they’ve always dreamt about just for the sake of a “sanskriti”, which doesn’t allow you to go for your “life-partner”?




I don’t know what’s going on in my mind right now… but one thing is for sure, we all are a big bunch of “hypocrites”








(P.S. : guys… ‘m shocked, none of you said that she should be SEXY)

    know what its simple, when a guy is looking for a GF he uses adjectives like, HOT, SEXY, Broad Minded, Independent, Daring n all...
    and same Male spices when goes on bride hunting - adjectives changes like Good cultured, beautiful, Family oriented, Understanding in nature , sushil n all ...

    hell still one dreams for different and demands something different!

  7. શું ૧૦૦ % સંતોષ શક્ય છે ? બીજો પ્રશ્ન,
    એક વસ્તુ કે વ્યક્તિ પ્રત્યેનું આકર્ષણ આજીવન એક જ તિવ્રતાથી રહી શકે ?

    જ્યારે આપણે ડ્રીમ ગર્લ-બોયની કલ્પના કરતા હોય છીએ ત્યાયે ખાલી કલ્પના જ કરવાની હોય છે ત્યાં કોઈ બાઉન્ડ્રી નથી બાંધેલી હોતી પણ જ્યારે વાસ્તવિકતાની વાત આવે ત્યારે ?

    "લાઇફ-પાર્ટનર" જ્યારે વ્યક્તિ પોતાની અપેક્ષાની વાત કરે ત્યારે શું તે સામેની વ્યક્તિની અપેક્ષાનો પણ વિચાર કરે છે ?

    કદાચ આ પ્રશ્નો વિષે વિચારશો તો તમને યોગ્ય જવાબ શોધવામાં સરળતા રહેશે. keep it up. :)

  8. Nice one.

    In any relation, when you come very close to the other person, you find out many qualities (may be good, may be bad) of the person. Marriage is the closest relationship. Only after marriage, both the partners know about plus and minus of the other partner. It is only level of adjustment and accommodation by both the partners that decide the success or failure of the relation. This is true for all relations. Without some level of adjustment no relation can sustain, because two human brains can never think same way, always. Those who can adjust and accommodate, live with "life-partner", others just do with the "spouce".
