And just because people move on from A to B does not mean they did not love A or don't love A anymore. Love has many variations, you can cheat on someone and still love them, you can move on from someone and still love them like your old car thats not there anymore. I beg to differ because thats not my definition but for someone else, it might be. We are humans, we are not prairie voles genetically ingrained to be monogamous and faithful all our lives. Besides what is love anyway? Its what you make of it. Fairytale love does not exist in the real world, get into a couple of relationships and see for yourself. Two people have to be on the same page on a lot of things for relationships to work, sure differences add the spice initially but you can't make it work by being in opposite poles all the time. Especially in today's world where everyone concentrates on instant gratification and jumping to greener pastures is that much easier. Dating sites, social network sites, promiscuity in media all make it easier for people to stray. I think people should adapt their definition of love with times or else they may end up hurting themselves with unreasonable expectations.

I think that couples in Bollywood face exactly the same type of problems in their love life. They have ego clashes or different outlooks into the future. Some want to focus on careers while others want to focus on a family and these differences cause issues that each couple must fight with. What is hard about being a bollywood couple isn't the type of problems they face but rather the types of pressures they have to endure. Even before, they themselves are sure of whether they like each other, the media creates news about the couple and it adds to the pressure of a new relationship. Because of these pressures they enter into relationships either prematurely (thereby ending in a breakup soon) or they end up breaking up even before giving themselves a chance as a couple.


Since they are always in the limelight, along with pressure there comes a form of uncertainty about your careers, your place in the industry, how people perceive you because you are dating a certain person… it's things that happen if you and your other half end up working in the same company as well.

i suppose... i guess definition of love differs from person to person... we all see it differently...!
in todays world, definitely love has more to do with instant gratification than anything long lasting... satisfying one's own ego tends to be more important than making small compromises... there's no middle ground... it's usually me, myself and I...! @ bold... that is not entirely true... but then again, if people can't find middle ground, then yes... it definitely can't work... every relationship needs work...!

esp when so called love is easily/ readily available. When you're working with beautiful looking people (arguably Bolly actors and actresses are good looking :| coz they are salable. Looks over talent??), physical attraction is undeniable. So, I guess some people tend to jump into a relationship based on- how attracted I am to you!!

😆😆 i'm sorry... that came out a bit wrong...!
but yes, i agree with you... thanks for making the point i was trying to make...! 😳😃
love is never easy to find... but the reasons people get into the relationship (at least to me) seems fickle... but then again, as i said... we all have different definitions of love.... looks are important but they are not what makes any relationship last... such relationships tend to fizzle out, as we see all the time...!

No worries missy. U made ur point quite clear 😳
Yeah, we do have diff definition of love but people seem to be rather opinionated about it than being receptive. Esp. in our society when they see someone moves on with their life so easily after a break up. Well, those people don't surprise me anyway 😆

That said, I'm outta here chica. Have loads to do today. Have a fun day/nite. Toodles!

one word, Temptations
ppl in bollywood have access to all kinds of beautiul men/women, they are usually away from their partners due to work scheduale so they give in. Not every one has will power to refuse the temtations which come in their way.

I don't know why people spend so much time and energy in cheating....just tell your wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend you want a threeway and you never know right? 😆😆

Relationships in general don't last long because women have no reason to stick to their men anymore. They are independent and can walk out on their men if they want.

But on the other hand I feel people have become way way way too picky just because they think oh I can find another better person!! Smallest of things they reject a person! Until you get to know a person well how will you ever know if you are compatible for a long haul? How will you ever know if the person won't change? You have to give a relationship time and space to blossom....sometimes it can start bad but it can end better! You gotta give it time! Be patient! Then you can all have that great love story that you dream of! 😃 (and to clarify I am not talking about cheaters or liars or scums....just regular people we date and reject for stupid reasons!)
