Given that in out generation, ladies and gentlemen, are patronizing liberal thinking, open relationship is already a common case among young lovers. This denotes a relationship in which partners agree to date other prospects while they are not yet married. Although our conservative society strongly disapproves of this practice among women, men on the other hand are almost given special treatment by forgiving them if they are guilty of having a multiple partners at the same time. This, they say, is because man is polygamous by nature. Therefore, it is acceptable that they could love another, while being committed to the other.
However, I stand that this should not be the case at all.
Live for the present. For we are now jamming to the music of the new millennium, we should take that as a cue that gone are the old days.
Now you might just argue that we are not talking about married people here. On fact, not just yet. But remember, a man who got used to smoking, even if he got “over” with it, he would surely light a cigarette occasionally for pleasure. What the man was so used to do when he was not yet married is what he would practice even after he ties the knot with his bride. The point is, so that a man would not be tempted of having other women aside from his wife in the future, he should be forbidden of having other girlfriends aside from his partner as early as steady days.
Collect, collect and then select. To some, or perhaps, to many liberated young men, this could be the most practical way of looking for the best girlfriend. They court and date two, three, or more ladies at the same time, and apparently choose who among those ladies satisfies them most – the nerve of these males’ chauvinist pigs! What is this, an audition? By doing this practice, men are being ignorant of the consequence of their action. Ironically, they do not realize that while they are enjoying yet another superficial habit, they lose three of the most important things of their manhood: dignity, mystery and true love.
First, we discuss dignity. A man who practices infidelity is never worthy of honor – for ha does not have the strength to fight temptations. Therefore, he is nothing but a weakling. Second, when you go date a couple of “chicks” around a small world, you hastily throw your magnetic appeal away, because you are now considered “just one of the guys”, nothing special. On being public, you waste every inch of mystery in you. Lastly, while having numerous girlfriends, a man would more likely than not, have misconceptions as to whether he is really in love, or just into a romantic fantasy in a particular relationship. So, that when the time comes that he has to choose, physical pleasures oust emotional feelings from ruling, and unfortunately, he loses the ability to identify what is true love. Blimmey, but it is never a practical way if you lose more than you could afford. And besides, how practical is this when in fact you only waste time and effort (not to mention money) in working with relationships, which do not have a future anyway? Save.
Finally, this is not an issue of equality between man and women anymore. But this is an issue about commitment. You see, when you commit yourself to a relationship, you devote your love to that one person alone. But if you venture to other romance other than your partner’s, then you are not truly committed. And if there is no commitment, there is no point to the relationship – for what is there for both of you to work for?
So close it, and consider thinking from now on.
