Life Partners Love You Just The Way You Are
Life partners are those people who mean much more than what words can express. They are an essential part of your team, your nights and days, your thoughts, your emotions, your dreams and your sleepless nights.
Life partners are more than passionate lovers or committed partners ; It is to love each other without excuses or ups and downs, it is to accept each other, it is to help each other grow, walk hand in hand through life and feel full of love.
A life partner means being the best mattress for falls. A coat for the winter. A breath of fresh air in hellish moments. The sun and the stars, a sky full of vitality.
Only when you can accept the other’s being as it is, do you have love
Life partners love in such a way that the other person feels free. The beauty of such a love is the conjunction, forming an emotional home, a place where there is nothing more beautiful than the two together. In other words, it could be said that companion love is love squared, the one to which almost all of us aspire and in which commitment, passion and friendship are intermingled.
We cannot love half, we cannot “not love” a part of our partner, because if we do not do it in its entirety we are not loving anything. This does not mean that there are no things that we dislike, but at the end of the day the essence is what we need to love to do it fully.
Loving is an art based on honesty
Loving is an art that requires patience, care, discipline, responsibility and commitment. It is a game of silences, knowledge, respect, freedom, trust and dedication. Even with everything, letting yourself be loved is something complicated.
To achieve this we have to be able to reinvent ourselves and overcome our difficulties. We have to respect our rhythms, know our needs, flow with attachment, let go of expectations, be generous, and forgive. Only in this way will we be able to be life companions.
Be a perfect couple, a job for two
Being a perfect couple is not not having problems, but knowing how to overcome them together. We have to get angry, throw things at our heads, impose ourselves, compete, judge ourselves, fall into error, catch a breath, count to ten and let go of what torments us.
Reaching the degree of life companions requires breaking down old walls and healing the wounds of our emotional past. To believe in love, you must first believe in yourself, cling to the present, collect motives, fight and achieve the desire.
We must take special care that each one goes their own way, in accepting our limits and loving our difficulties. We have to “let ourselves be” , become a good love, have the audacity to remove our armor to accept and appreciate our own vulnerability.
