Love is the embrace of two souls that strive for perfection, but complement each other in their imperfection.
Your other half is one of the few people who he knows all sides of you. When you are tired, run down, angry. When you make mistakes. You are upset. Excited. Unbearable. Seductive. He is lucky (and unlucky) to be with you through every achievement and every disappointment.
When you make love, you accept the fact that things won't always be perfect. That there will be days when you argue and days when you don't get along at all, you can't avoid it. When you spend a lot of time with someone, you're bound to have disagreements, no matter how much you love each other.
Because they love each other, they forgive each other all the little things. When he comes home from work in a bad mood and blurts out something inappropriate. When he is silent during dinner, and even though you want to say something, you prefer to be silent. When he says something that hurts you and then wonders what it was. When he nods to agree with you but doesn't listen to you at all.
Since you love each other, you take your significant other's apology seriously. You know he means it when he apologizes to you. You know he feels terrible because he knows that even though the mistake was small, it caused you pain. He never wants to cause you pain. He wants to be someone who wipes away your tears, not someone who creates them.
Because they love each other, they don't hold grudges. They forgive each other. They don't have long silent days and being ignored. He's a person you forgive for everything he's done, because he's only human, and people make mistakes, they're imperfect. You forgive her because you know she will forgive you when you make a mistake.
Because you love each other, you agree to fix your problems, and do it right away—not fight them, ignore them, and find fault. They talk and reach compromises. And neither of you make the same mistake again. You don't want to do things that hurt you. Once was too much.
Because you love each other, you won't have to forgive each other for big things because there is nothing so big that either of you can do wrong. You will not give each other a reason to break up, to leave your love. They will not do anything unacceptable or unforgivable.
Because they love each other, they try to become the best versions of themselves - for each other. You are trying to make your relationship stronger day by day so that you can more easily overcome the obstacles that come your way. They will defeat them together. Because they trust each other. Because they love each other!
