To Love or not to Love?

Why is it that in every relationship the beginning is always great.  No matter what the person tells you or you tell them, things always come to a cross-road.  You may have tons in common but there is always some underlining thing that just irks the hell out of you about them.  Whether it's the way the talk, laugh, snore, chew loudly, text, Skype, Tweet or be on Facebook all the damn time, it's always something.

It's either suffer thru the annoying things because of the good times that you guys have or call it quits & be single, alone & miserable.  So I ask, "To Love or Not to Love?"  Can being with another person truly make you happy? or is it just a myth?  I for 1 believe that it's all a big myth, a fairy tale with no happy endings for real people.

I believe that people that are in a relationship & always seem to be happy are liars!! No relationship is perfect or without problems.  I'm the eldest of 8 children, 6 brothers & 1 sister 4 of which are married 2 are on their 2nd marriage; I used to dream of getting married, whenever I would begin a new relationship I would fantasize about how things would be if we were married, but not anymore.  I've faced reality & learned that marriage just isn't in the cards for me, neither are relationships for that matter.  No matter how much I think i'm doing the right thing, i'm always doing the wrong thing, so why keep subjecting myself to more heartache & pain, why not just settle on a life of being single & alone?

You can never make someone else happy no matter how much you try or pray that you can if they're not happy with themselves.  A person that is always angry will stay that way no matter what you say or do, so why keep trying?
