Expat relationships

10 years ago

Now this is a topic I didn't want to touch with a six foot pole but since you brought it up.....here it goes my take on it! Relationships are difficult on their own with everything else being equal. If you start to add cultural differences, language problems, customs and on and on you are really start stacking the deck against the relationship! Does this mean we shouldn't try? NO! of course NOT! It is like "better to have love and lost than not to love at all" or something to that effect. But we as people are so different sometimes. Different dreams, plans, and expectations. Just as some like blue not yellow, and some like fat not slim we are all different. Some search for their opposite and some search for their male/female counterpart. But really COMMUNICATIONS is so vital. Let me give you a personal example. My partner and I where born in the same geographical area. One of us lived abroad for 40 years and the other one stayed there. We met up and now, time to time find that we miss communicate although we both speak the same language with relative fluency. So my point is that relationships are difficult as is stacking the odds sometimes works out and sometimes doesn't. So if you out there and looking don't give up! You may get lucky. Those that think that they found the right one--Congrats! You are one of the few lucky ones! Be careful and be safe!
