4,000 couples ended their relationship, 17 couples ended their engagement, 9 couples divorced - dare you ask these two questions?
Scottish stand-up comedian Daniel Sloss doesn't just entertain audiences with funny performances, but rather with his philosophical speech about love changed the lives of thousands of couples. And as he said at the beginning of the speech, true love will not be touched by his speech, but in case you doubt your relationship, you should ask yourself these two questions.
In his speech, he said that people have an idea formed since childhood, how our life will go. And so he remembered what his father had told him when he was seven years old.
“Imagine that each individual's life is a puzzle that has many pieces. You spend your whole life looking for particles, using experiences and lessons, everything until you get the best version of the puzzle. But you are long gone lost her box. No one knows exactly what his life should be like. The best way to assemble it is to start from the outside, from all four sides - the family, friends, hobby, service.
However, even these four things change over time – you will lose some friends, you will meet new ones. Sometimes work will affect a hobby you love and you will have to decide, what will you give priority to?. You will constantly be moving the layout of the puzzle... Then a family member will die, whose death will leave a void in your heart that you must fill with something else, otherwise your puzzle will be "empty". And this void is made for your soul mate. One day a complete stranger will put your puzzle together and it will made your life perfect.“
And Daniel says that's where the problem lies. Young people want things right now, that's why they choose the wrong person, because they want to fit it into their puzzle by all means, even though it can be a wrong particle.
Daniel believes that this happens because people do not understand that he also has another person deeply and complex personality, which makes up his puzzle. Other people don't want to abandon their own vision just for the sake of it would get caught in a foreign one. You too would be offended and angry if someone suggested this to you.
But when it comes to true love, partners should put together a puzzle, which can be hard, but if love is real, they fight. In the beginning of a relationship, everything usually goes smoothly, but time is no guarantee of success. They might spend two, five, or ten years together, and finally realize that they do they are completely different.
Daniel says this is the moment you have to ask 2 questions, which are very important:
1. Am I aware that I have just wasted 2, 5, 10 years of my life?
2. Do I want to spend the rest of my life this way?
By the end of his speech, the audience understood that his father was wrong when he said that you have to put love at the center of the puzzle. Happiness is much more important, so you should never be in a relationship at any cost and change for it. If a person doesn't love you the way you are, it means that he doesn't love you completely, but he loves a false vision of you that he created in his head. And that's not your fault.
Daniel says that you and your partner should both be happy. If they are that's great. If you don't like the questions, it's because because they are afraid of the answer. The biggest mistake in life is choosing to be with the wrong person.
Daniel says that he believes that there are true loves, but in his opinion, it is 80 % union of false, because people don't know how to be single, they don't know how to wait for the right person and therefore allow themselves to spend their precious time with the wrong person.
After his monologue on Twitter, Daniel received countless messages from couples who ended their relationship - 4,000 pairs he was told yes ended the relationship, 17 pairs has interrupted an engagement, there are 9 pairs separator.
You two dare to ask these two questions?
