The best relationship you will experience in your life will never be perfect
It won't live up to the fairytale expectations we find in movies, where all problems are solved in a few moments and where every obstacle is just an opportunity for a magical unfolding. This relationship will not copy scenarios where everything unfolds flawlessly in 90 minutes or less.
The best relationship of your life will be a real experience
It will challenge you to grow, learn and constantly improve. It will require compromises, trust, lots of laughter, and endless amounts of grace and forgiveness.

Dishes will stay in the sink longer than you'd like, and sometimes you'll both go to bed angry and wake up in the morning still irritated. Misunderstandings and shortcomings will be inevitable.
There will even be moments of doubt when you wonder if you have chosen the right person. And then the answer comes in the form of a comforting hug after a hard day or after an argument that lasted longer than you would have liked. There will also be laughter and looks of understanding and faith.
In these special moments you will remember, why you fell in love with him or her, and these real experiences will make you realize that all the hard things are worth it.
The best relationship of your life may not be perfect, but it will definitely be real
And that is enough if you allow it to develop and grow through all the ups and downs that life brings.
