What is it that makes
us different from other organisms on this planet? Perhaps, it is our ability to
form and maintain relationships in social milieu. Therefore, the earlier we
understand the economics of relationship, the better we be in appreciating it.
An analysis of economics
of relationship reveals that it is one of the riskiest investments a man ever
makes in his life. If everything goes well, the returns are extremely
satisfying. But, if something goes wrong, it creates havoc in personal life.
We will now examine how
it functions in the real world scenario.
To nurture a
relationship, you make commitments, spend time and invest emotions. The
probable beneficial returns are satisfaction, happiness and enlightenment. Returns
worth dying for! However, the losses are equally devastating. You get pain,
sufferings and on top of that depression!
If you are a high risk
taker, you can bear the loss much better because you remain mentally prepared
for it. The conservative ones are not so fortunate. They invest after much
deliberation and judgment only to see their investments go awry. For them, the
loss also casts shadow over their judgmental abilities, a much sought after
trait in their own opinion.
So, what are your
lessons from this? One, be mentally prepared to bear the loss of your near and
dear ones. Second, conservatives (read sentimental
ones) should never look failure in relationships as end of their lives. And the most important one, always keep in
mind that nobody will be with you forever.
Hehehe, on a lighter note, it’s
better to lose for then it will pave way for a new rock-star.
