Campus lovers and their soap opera-like dramas

Most of us have been raised watching soap operas with all the drama that happens there. We end up searching to know what this love is, how it feels to love and who the right person for us is. In campus with the freedom we have we get into relationships that end up being dramatic, weird, awkward and all sort of things.

Maybe these soap operas make us live in an unrealistic world where we think in relationships we can do anything and get away with it like cheating. We need to change this mentality, go back to our old fashion sweet relationships. We act as adults, where couples do have feelings for each other; they trust one another and remain faithful. Most of the times you find campus students hopping from one relationship to another, or even dating three or four people concurrently.

Couples argue and at the end they come up with a solution instead of using abusive words and violence. Some of the few ways that can help us maintain good relationships are: communicating frequently with one another have an agreement as to why you are together for example for growth.

Also learning to respect one another and be ready to accept the different natures of everyone if you can’t change them. This helps accommodate their feelings, desires and dreams. In campus this is normally not the case. Most of the relationships are based on the mantra, ‘either my way or no way’.
