Passion and commitment are two of the important ingredients needed for a relationship to last. Absence of either will result to a short-term or unsatisfying relationship. But what exactly is the difference between the two and how one alone is not enough to have a long-lasting relationship? Passion is the physical relationship while commitment is the cognitive counterpart of it . Passion happens in the start of the relationship and usually simmers as time goes by. On the other hand, commitment makes the bond stronger when passion starts to fade. Passion alone cannot guarantee a long-lasting union as commitment cannot assure the beginning of a relationship.
A relationship has its "up's" and "down's". You and your partner may always have a fight, but having "someone" that will always be there when you need her is one thing that fights will never win against.
ReplyDeleteTrue. No need to put quotation marks around "ups and downs" and "someone," though, unless you are using them in a different sense from the usual.
