' Win back your ex' vs. ' How to get over a break up'
Love is on everybody's mind. I sometimes get the impression that everything evolves around it. 80% of what's projected from the television screens deals with the topic. Right around the corner is the next love series like the O.C. Even the history channel will talk about some queens medieval affair. Books are no different. You can find a lot of titles that promise advice on how to get over an ex or even how to get your ex boyfriend back. In celebrity magazines we see the same thing. Most of these celebrities took part in a movie that was about love.
We are clearly obsessed by the subject and everything that's related to it.
Please don't think I'm against it. On the contrary I'm all for love and think people should talk about it more, but in a slightly different form. The topic should be discussed more in industrialized countries like The Russian federation and Netherlands. These countries see a diminishing population. Large number of people in those countries are brainwashed into believing that money is the most important thing. Media praises money and riches and pays less attention to love. Don't get me wrong, 'romantic' shows still get a lot of air time there too. Too bad that many of these shows display romance in a negative light. They show cheating adventures of a husband as if it was the norm. Why not show a faithful husband that comes home to spend time with his kids. We see the same trend in printed media. There are now more and more books that explain how to get over a bad breakup. May be we should see more titles that give advice on how to get your ex boyfriend back. I personally believe that books like that should be more popular than the defeatist attitude ones.
In some states there are a divorce rates of 40%. This is too much. Did people stop trying to fix their problems and simply abandon ship? What happened to 'till death do us apart'? If the wife is cheating it does not mean the husband needs to breakup right away. This act of betrayal, could have been provoked by something. May be it was caused by a grave mistake on the part of the husband? Could this be a one time thing, that can be prevented if the couple establishes a better spiritual connection? I think the 80 / 20 rule applies here too, where as 80 percent of the difference is caused by 20 percent of change. It's been said that the top reason why wives go to look elsewhere is the lack of recognition.
Therefore it becomes clear that we should value our partner. Let's concentrate on similarities and not the differences. Let us try to listen and understand. Let's choose affection instead of resentment. Because in the end of the day love always prevails.
