Wang Yang is 55 years old, with two kids, a boy, and a girl, who are all grown up and moved out. They rarely come back home, so it’s just him and his wife at home.
Over the years, they’ve had their share of arguments, but for the sake of the kids, they’ve learned to tolerate each other. Now that the kids are grown up, their emotional connection has faded, and they barely talk to each other, like two strangers who happen to live together.
Wang Yang hardly talks to his wife at home, but he’s made friends with many people at the square, including a lady named Liu, who’s around his age. They’re dance partners, and they often chat about life. As they spend more time together, their bond grows stronger.
But when his wife found out about Liu, she was furious, and they ended up getting a divorce. Wang Yang’s kids were also upset with him, feeling like he’d let their mom down. After the divorce, Wang Yang felt lonely, and whenever he thought about his ex-wife, he’d burst into tears.
In reality, many people make mistakes in their marriages, and it’s essential to cherish the bond between husband and wife. If you don’t appreciate what you have, you’ll only end up hurting yourself.
Husband and Wife Should Always Rely on Each Other
As Lin Huiyin said, “Once you fall in love with someone, you have to surrender.”
As people grow older, they start to value family life more.
Many people might think that since they’re already old, there’s no need to be too concerned about their partner, but I think that’s wrong. Husband and wife should always be each other’s support system. Marriage isn’t about dragging each other down but about having someone who’ll unconditionally be there for you when you’re exhausted.
In this world, there aren’t many people who genuinely care about you. Some people might be nice to you, but they often have ulterior motives. Husband and wife having issues is normal, but if you let small problems tear you apart, that’s just not worth it.
Your loved one will always be your strongest backing.
Don’t Confide in Just Anyone
Yang Jiang once said, “True love only happens once in a lifetime, and one heart can only belong to one person.”
On our life journey, we’ll meet various people, but not everyone deserves our trust.
We’ll face many setbacks and challenges in life, but there aren’t many people who’ll genuinely help us. Most people will laugh at our misfortunes, so don’t think that someone you just met will be your lifelong friend. If you’re too trusting, you’ll only end up getting hurt.
In this world, only your family will unconditionally care about you. Those who seem nice might leave you someday.
Don’t Play with Ambiguity
In this era of fast food love, it’s easy to get tempted, but husband and wife should learn to be tolerant and loyal to each other. If you can’t even be faithful in a relationship, how can your love last?
Ambiguity will only harm yourself and others, and it’ll hurt your loved one’s heart. When problems arise, husband and wife should learn to communicate correctly. If you confide in outsiders due to momentary confusion, you’ll only end up getting hurt.
Marriage is hard, so I hope everyone can cherish it. Some opportunities, once lost, will never come back.
As people grow older, they should learn to focus on themselves. If you keep sharing your pain with others, you’ll only end up hurting yourself.
Especially for those with families, it’s essential to maintain a distance from the opposite sex. If you ignore the person who’s always been there for you because of external temptations, you’ll only regret it in the end.
