Are you holding yourself back from your loved one because they don't match you perfectly? The truth is that we all are different in our own ways so a perfect match doesn't exist. If two people think differently in certain aspects, doesn't mean they can't be together. Togetherness is about the love and respect we hold for each other and this should not change when our thoughts don't match in certain areas of life. Most of the conflicts happen in a relationship because we expect our partner to agree with us for everything. When they don't agree, we feel hurt and in that pain we want to quit on that relationship. We must not forget that, it is not the similarities that keep people together but the acceptance of differences. Once we embrace these differences, we end up arguing less and valuing each other more. Accept that none will be ever similar to you in every way. Listen to their ideas but don't disregard them. Value each other's opinion but don't discourage anyone. The more you embrace each other's differences, easier it will become to stay together. Dr Bhawna Gautam
