Domestic Disturbance

In the Sunday newspaper,  I read  a story as shocking as it was unbelievable. A man murdered his wife   for the stupidest reason ever.

reason for his action: she prepared him a local delicacy, when he wanted rice and stew.
mode of action: he went into his room, got out his rifle and shot her point blank despite pleas for her live.

After I read the story, I felt pity for this woman and her six children. but I cant help but wonder. this man had a history of abuse, insensitivity and Violence. why did she stay? for the sake of her children or for the love she felt for her man? what happens now she is dead? is life gonna be better?

Long-term

I searched out the word Long-Term on Thesaurus and it came back as Lasting, Long-standing, continuous, durable. so when something is Long-term it probably doesn't have an end or it will last so long the end is not in sight.

My friend's elder sister is in a long-term relationship, what does this mean? that she would be in a relationship all her life, never to get married or never to graduate to the next phase Marriage. considering that she has been in this relationship for quite a while now (16 years), and no other future seems to be in sight, I should say that her relationship is lasting, long-standing and durable. lol

In a movie I saw a longtime ago, it was a Long-term relationship that lasted eight (8) years and when it eventually ended both parties moved on and within six months both the man and lady were both married to other people. all to often we see people who dated for many years and then get married only and start having marital problems immediately. so i wonder, are some couples just meant to be long-term relationship couples? do they know from the start of the relationship that it would never amount to anything but long-term? if No at what point do you know that a relationship is just destined to be called long-term and not married. 

Maybe I am old school but ave always believed every girl is Cinderella and when she finds her prince, they get married not get into a long-term relationship. the distressing fact about Long-term relationship is that ladies suffer most from the breakup. in most parts of the country, a woman is considered an old maid if she is not married at a certain age, so by virtue of being past this age, her appeal is reduced and we all know the men of our time with being very persnickety.

My friend tells me that sometimes long-term relationships could results from both parties not being ready or the time not being right. REALLY! 16 years and the time aint right to step up? 

I speak for myself when I say Five (5) years with out a ring is a deal breaker for me.

whats your take on long-term relationships?
