Is emotional maturity more important than romance in relationships?

When you tie the knot, you enter into a partnership that needs to be cherished, treasured and preserved.

But as you start walking along the side, you may feel disconnected when you can't see the same amount of zest or passion from the other. We want time, care, attention and admiration from the other but when either of these get served in lesser quantities, people flip out..

If you immediately jump to conclusions like ‘he or she might not be into you anymore', ‘something else is their priority now’, and the worst nightmare, “they have found someone else…” you may jeopardize the relationship based on assumptions without even giving them a chance for explanation.

Though you are walking next to each other, the road might be the same but you can't see the stones coupled in their shoe making it hard to walk with a straight face and you take it as they are not happy being with you…

Open communication in a relationship can be the first step towards building emotionally mature and supportive bond. If you are aware of the other person's pain points, you would try to resolve them or atleast be sensitive about it before playing the victim card.

As promoted in the movies and music albums, the hand holding, hugging, cuddling and the act of “love making” is all that counts as romance

But in true sense, holding your anger in and instead of shouting back, keeping calm till the traumatic storm passes is more beautiful…

Rubbing their back when they feel lost or broken and whispering in ears, ‘it will be alright and I will be there for you no matter what ‘ is so much more romantic than raising toast to cheer in their success party…

The physical love making is just the 20% share holder of healthy relationship, rest 80% is accounted by open communication, mutual trust, mental support and financial soundness.
