Strategic Love

Among the other things we learn, there was this subject that talked about strategic alliances between companies. We had a lot of fun going through the course material slides as a lot of it was very applicable to modern relationships and matrimony.

The five stages of strategic alliances: Euphoria, Honeymoon Period,Dawning  Realization,Aftershock and Damage Control

The five C's that affect partner choice: Competence,Complementary, Congruence, Compatibility and.Chemistry

Another thing it talks about is having an exit strategy.
The terms on which you will part with your partner if it doesn't work out.

I guess that is where falling in love differs.
You have no exit strategy.
And there lies our fault and our ruin.

If you have ever done a puzzle you know that there is that one piece.
When you place this one piece in the puzzle,you instantly know that you have figured it out.
The whole puzzle seems easier after this piece.You can imagine the rest of it in its place, and you know you will eventually complete it.

You were that piece in the puzzle of my life.

When I found you, I could see myself building my life around you. Everything made sense, everything seemed possible.For first time in my life, I truly relaxed because I knew I had found you.

I don't know what was my intention was at that time, where I wanted it all to go.
I just remember that feeling.That relief, that lucky feeling, to have found that one piece.
