Every relation has some expectations, some boundaries and some accepting level.

Every relationship has some expectations, boundaries, and accepting levels. But these are not the same for everyone and may vary between people.

My favourite and most comfortable relationship is friendship. I love them. I care for them. Whether they like me as a friend or not, I will help them (if needed) as much as I can. They all have negative and positive things. Some of them take hard drinks, chew tobacco, cheat, steal others' money, and have different views on many things from different religions; some don’t believe in religion. I like them all for their many positive things. Indeed, I won’t like to see them doing my “not favourite” things in front of me, but I won’t break my friendship. I really want my friend to be with me, always.

The most flexible relation is parent-child relations. No matter what you do, your parents or your child may forgive you and will always love you. Again, there are many differences here, too. Some parents may forgive and try to save their child even after the murder; some parent may kick their child out of their life if they get married by themselves. In my case, my parent accepted my choice. Though they didn’t like it, they didn’t give me any single objection. Even now, they don’t ask me once why I live like this.

The most restricted relationship is marriage. Some couples are very flexible with each other, some not. But in most cases, nobody will allow cheating, bad behaviour, etc. I guess my husband gives me flexibility in many areas because I never force him to do anything. Even if that breaks my heart, I will never stop him. He is like a free bird.

But there are limitations to everything. I have patience, but that has a limit too.
