When it comes to Relationship and Commitment Are we all a little mad?

The first question that flashes my mind when it comes to relationship and commitment is this; Are we all a little mad?

I have weighed my options thoroughly and I came to this conclusion “it is much easier to cry depression than it is to man up and deal with the problem at hand.” Has our generation really become that quick to buckle or are some of us just better-equipped to deal with the highs and lows of this roller coaster called life than others?

A long-term relationship, marriage in particular, is the ultimate indication of love, one that was designed to test our emotional fortitude. It comes with a number of extreme contradictions that become even more intense the longer we stay in a particular relationship. Pain, joy, happiness, resentment. Everything is amplified. We love them the one day and we hate them the next. Do we simply give up and declare the relationship emotionally unstable or do we fight the symptoms before they become critical?

My own relationship had recently gone through a state of clinical depression and I was just about ready to raise the white flag on love for good. Instead of confronting the problems in our relationship, Anonymous and I decided to avoid each other completely. This unhealthy approach went on for days until the suppression finally turned into a full-blown shit storm. Things were thrown and harsh words were spoken. I was furious, he was hurt. It all became a little schizophrenic but by the end of the day, we had reached a mutual understanding and respect for one another, and peace had finally been restored.

They don't call it crazy stupid love for nothing.
