The Struggles and Tranquility of Commitment

By Alex Shant


Commitment defines a relationship. Once two persons are commitment, it means that they are a couple. It means that they share something that is exclusive to their selves alone. Being committed is a bittersweet thing but mostly it is sweet. It is because when people are committed, romance is put to the extensive level. Unlimited possibilities could happen, one of which is a possible partner for life.

However, beyond the sweetness and the romance, there are also hardships that go with commitment. One very common obstacle while in a relationship is fidelity and trust. This is because when you are in a committed relationship, you have to assure that the both of you are loyal and that you do not cheat. Once you start cheating against your partner, you will have trust issues that are very hard to remedy in the end.

Another obstacle in a committed relationship is financial matters. Needless to say, financial matters could create issues between the two of you because payments on dates may come as a problem. It might be that when you were still dating and not in a relationship yet, you didn't have problems with money because your man pays for it all the time.

However, when the both of you decided to be exclusive together, your man may want you to give a little contribution to the expenses of your dates. This is a problem because women do not normally want to pay for dates. They want to be treated in the same way when they were treated before; a special person you just eat and do not pay for anything. However, the man may insist because as a couple, the both of you should know that everything must be done as one especially financial matter

Commitment may come as a great obstacle for people who are still dating but it may also give you the long time tranquility and peace that you have been waiting for. This is because when you are in a relationship, you know that you have finally got the person that you want to be with. You know that you are going to have fights but will put them together. The best tranquility of them all is that you know that the person you are with loves you enough to decide to be committed with you and you alone.
