Falling in love is always magical. It feels eternal as if love will last __(31)__. We naively believe that somehow we are __(32)__ from the problems our parents had. We are assured that we are destined to live happily ever after.
But as the magic fades and daily life __(33)__, it happens that men, forgetting that men and women are supposed to be different, continue to expect women to think and react the way men do; women, __(34)__, expect men to feel and behave the way women do. __(35)__ taking time to understand and respect each other, we become demanding, resentful, judgmental, and intolerant.
__(36)__, our relationships are filled with unnecessary disagreements and conflicts. Somehow, problems creep in, resentments build, and communication __(37)__. Mistrust increases and rejection and repression surface. The magic of love is then lost.
Very __(38)__ people are able to grow in love. Yet, it does happen. __(39)__ men and women are able to respect and accept their differences, love has a chance to blossom. Love is, __(40)__, magical, and it certainly can last if we remember our differences and respect each other.
