[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Relationships are like marathons. If you put all of your energy and passion in the first mile you will never complete the race. Too often people are overwhelmed with early relationship passions and never get to really understand and know their partner. A question to ask is could this person be my best friend in 25 years?

It’s a marathon with an unknown course and unlimited potential obstacles and midway thru you realise the person you started has turned into stranger, and, oh, you are now your mother.

Good luck training for that!!

I used the marathon analogy for my first marriage. We had talked and it sounded like we were both on the same page. Then I realized as I was running that he wasn't by my side anymore and I was really lonely. I thought I had picked someone who would be my running partner (figuratively speaking, I actually hate running), but it turns out he was just saying those things and didn't mean any of them.
