Nothing stays perfect...

Just got a call from an old friend. Her marriage was due for next month and here she tells me that she has broken-up with that guy and the marriage would be sometime later, with somebody else. The reason for break-up was that the girl did not find the guy taking her career seriously and expressed his disinterest in a rather unacceptable manner, resulting into calling off the marriage.

I am still in a state of shock and disbelief. The news would take a long time to sink in, since her relationship seemed so perfect; and I virtually have no reason to accept that even a relationship like that could wreck. But it has. Nothing stays forever and nothing stays perfect, esp. where two people are required to complete the picture.

I don’t know how one feels when he or she marries the person; one has been into relationship with.  Does s/he feel differently from others, while getting into sacred matrimony? Does his/her feeling of victory overcome the feeling of anxiety and fear of unknown? Does anything change at all? Another big question – After spending how much time with a person, we feel confident that we finally know him or her?

There is a thought I read somewhere, which is going to help me a lot in coming future:

In every marriage after a week, you get several reasons to divorce and get separated. But the key is to find and keep finding the reasons to stay married
