Misconceptions of the Heart

I think the more apprppopriate thing to do Starting off a blog of this stature would be to Introduce myself.

My name is CháKilah Marie. I am currently in a relationship. My significant other and i have had our "fair share of problems" (as some would say). But the fact is, what is a fair share of problems? Are couples destined for a significant amount of controversey? Who ever said that all relationships are doomed to part-time failure?

All of my life i have witnessed,both first-hand and second-hand, some of the worst relationships. Never have i experienced a relationship that had no postitives, nor have i ever witnessed an immediate family member in one. I believe there are Pros and Cons to any relationship. This alone raises new questions. How many Pros and how many Cons are neccesary to maintain a functional relationship (be it intamate or on a friend or family basis).

If a person is having a problem with an on-going situation in their relationship, how long must they wait until speaking aloud? When is enough enough?

Which relationships begin to affect our personality, our values, our thoughts, and our processes?

These are just a percentage of the topics i plan to discuss in this blog.
