OPINIOIN ESSAY : IS ROMANTIC LOVE GOOD BASIS FOR MARRIAGE
Before I begin to give opinions, I would like to define the meaning of love. For most people love is considered an emotion, a mental state that arises spontaneously rather than through conscience effort. For me, love is a such of feeling that make my world life in fantasy. I believe love is an emotion that individual have to choose whether accept it or reject it.
Romantic love can generate many powerful feelings. It can provide a real fun fantasy, and a deep suffering when frustrated. To some people, romantic love is irrational. Romantic love can seem like an emotional storm. It’s hard to find romantic love nowadays because most of the people married in different way, I mean some of them get married with their parents preference.
I have had talked to some of my friends that already get married, they said they believe on romantic love but finally people who believe in romantic love is followed by disillusionment. My friends said that before they getting married, they began their relationship with romantic feelings. They had dreams for their future. They felt that life was finally rewarding and worthwhile but eventually the relationship began to fall apart after married.
It was a painful experience, my friends remember when they were in love before married and now their relationship broken just like that. For most people who fall in love, a time will come when they sense the beginning of problems. They know that romantic love can produce great joy and happiness. But with time, they begin to feel more alone. They felt uncomfortable to share problems and so on.
They begin to see the other person truly are and not what they needed them to be. They usually begin to find faults in others and they may become jealous, ego and angry. Many will separate or remain together in misery. Before getting married, people would say anything and promises that will care of each other to their couple. But after married, all the promises was disappear just like that.
On the other hand, I do not agree that romantic love is a good basis for marriage. I think couple who want to get married should think out of the box before step into marriage life because they will faces with a lot of problems with their couple after getting married.
