The Adaptation Of Love

Improved Essays
Register to read the introduction… The couple of Nick and Laura being the newly wed, deep lovers who can’t see any bad in the other – the so called innocence of love, while Mel and Teri are the previously divorced, bitter (so it seems, when you get down to the deep roots of their relationship) couple who have scarring past experiences – the so called corruptive love laced with a hint of hazed mystery. If there ever was a perfect definition of love, the characters within the story defiantly do not exhibit it at all. They’re more or less the extremes of love, the low and high points. From the depressive, drunken stupor love to the puppy-dog-eyed, lovey-dovey love. Both couples have various aspects that support the accusation, possibly even countless, mind boggling infectious reasons. When in the end, without balance there is no love, just desire and regret. Regret for past wrongs and the want for something to work, even if subconsciously knowing it …show more content…
Although finding such a person can be tedious and frustrating a times, it is worth it. Adaptation is the key to any love, to give in to the other person’s wants and desires and vice versa. Not in the extremes of Nick and Laura, but not to the bitterness of Teri and Mel. Love and relationships are very fragile things. They are so fragile in fact that it just takes one thing, one tiny little offence and it can snowball on you. (Mel’s proclaimed affection for Laura) And if that snowball starts to pick up speed, god forbid, you better tuck and roll. Relationships do not work the way they do in television and in the movies. (Will they? Wont they? And then they finally do and there happy forever.) Nine out of ten of them end because they weren’t right for each other to begin with and half of the ones that get married get divorced anyway.(as we can clearly see from the story) Love may be mainly about pushing chocolate covered candies, and in some cultures a chicken. But we all believe in it, one aspect or another. Bottom line, its couples that are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else but the big difference is they don’t let it take them down. One of those two people will stand up and fight for that relationship every time if it’s right. And there really lucky, the relationship just might be able to be named:

    Roses are red, violets are blue, but O’Connor’s tale paints romance a new hue. If you are reading a story that ends with ‘they all lived happily ever after’ you can bet it’s not the read The Life You Save Might Be Your Own. The author shows us that love doesn’t guarantee happiness and in fact it could curse us. Through this ironic mockery of love, Flannery O'Connor illustrates a new style of this genre: a fairy tale aways from a fairy tale, average looking lovers, a greedy mother, and no, there is no hero nor happily ever after. First and foremost, there was no true love within the entire story.…

    The Great Gatsby Love is a strange and undefinable emotion, the concepts and ideas about love are very broad, but one thing is not: It is powerful.

People are born from that passion and that is why life is an endless conquest in pursuit of that same love. The feel of it is what makes a human a human. All rationality and sanity go out the window and one is left in their original state, almost like an animal of instinct.…

    Love is all about feeling something. A connection with another individual that affects them not only in their social life but deep down, it pulls at their heart. Marriage is the joining of two souls that deeply care about each other enough to devote their lives to each other. Their desire to spend time with each other everyday rules above all else. The books of “Wuthering Heights” “Mrs.Dalloway” and the “Importance of Being Earnest” shows the irony and exposes the fact that in each respective time period that the novels were set in, no one marries for their feelings for one another.…
