Someone asked me for advice on romantic relationships which I never experienced at all.
(Oh! I did, but it was short, meaningful yet heartbreaking.)
Then I thought of BjörNetha and BenFrid. So I told this person, will the length of your relationship really matter if love dies in the end? Does forever really exist in romance? Even my favorite couples broke up regardless of the length of their relationship. What if in the end, it's just one of you who kept holding on? What if in the end, you're left behind because he or she found someone else?
There's no such thing as a perfect relationship. Yes, there's Mr.& Ms. Right. However, whether we like it or not, there will always be flaws in each other. It is up to the two of you AS PARTNERS, to respond to those flaws. You have to keep holding on to each other.
I usually come up with such ideas or speeches in front of my friends in relation to my fandom.

Or maybe it's just me who got so bitter after six years since the end of that six month relationship.
