And They Lived Happily Ever
After
Some people do live happily ever after. They haven’t
studied the five stages of dating, nor did they take a workshop
to discover how to pick the right person for them. They just
did it. They either gracefully went through the five stages
without even knowing it or they just lucked out and picked
the right person anyway. After getting married they gradually
learned the skills of making a marriage work on their own.
For most of us, finding the right person and being able to
make a relationship work are important skills we need to learn,
develop, and practice. It is easy to become discouraged in our
journey to find the right person if we don’t understand that
there are many different roads to reach the same destination.
