Borders & Time (about LOVE)

At the start of any relationship, you have love. This love is the 'I Love You Despite' form of love because nothing about that special person can change how you feel for him/her. The boy and the girl fall in love and end up in a relationship. As time goes by, they learn a lot about each other. They learn each other’s backgrounds, interests, future goals and ambitions, strengths and weaknesses, etc... and they grow more and more, intimate. It is not until after the FIRST MISTAKE that tougher measures are brought up, just like in the Garden of Eden - BORDERS will be created.

She won’t allow him to do certain things, say certain things, or even entertain certain people, and he would most likely demand the same of her. Their expectations towards each other would grow. Each partner would want it to go their way. They would want to be heard, they would want to be followed, they would want the other partner to prove to them that they really love them by not crossing these BORDERS that they have set, thus turning the 'I Love You Despite' to 'I Love You If' and 'I Love You When'. The deciding factor now becomes TIME.

Only TIME will tell how true and loyal the other partner can be.

Only TIME will tell how much the other partner is willing to give up for the one he/she loves.

Only TIME will tell which BORDERS were worth not crossing.

Only TIME will tell True Love.
