a take on partnerships

"Compassion and mutual respect offer a much more solid basis for our relations with others.
If our love for someone is based largely on attraction,
weather it be thier looks or some other superifical characteristic.
Our feelings for that person are liable, over time, to evaporate.
When they lose the quality we found alluring,
or when we find ourselves no longer satisfied by it,
the situation can change complelty,
despite their being the same person."
- His Holiness himself, Tenzin Gyatso
