MEN ARE FROM MARS, WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS

Remember: men cannot be like women

Falling in love is easy. Making it last is not. We tend to believe that once we fall in love, that magical feeling is eternal and will last forever. Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. John Gray, in his book, Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, says that “each year millions of couples join together in love and then painfully separate because they have lost that loving feeling.

From those who are able to sustain love long enough to get married, only 50% stay married. Out of those who stay together, possibly another 50% are not fulfilled. They stay together out of loyalty and obligation or from the fear of starting all over.”

According to Gray, very few people are able to grow in love. And the reason is simple. As the initial magical feeling reduces, daily life (work, salaries, bills, kids) takes over. And even as these changes start happening,

Women continue to expect men to think and react like women. They are unaware of the difference between a man and a woman. And when you are not aware of the difference, it’s not possible to respect and understand the Man. This in turn leads to unreasonable demands being made, resentfulness, and intolerance.

The solution is clear, if not simple: understand the differences of the opposite sex. Once we can do that, solutions can be found to potential problems. Love can only last if we remember our differences. That’s why Gray says that Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus. Read the book for more.
