Some will form loving relationships of other kinds. Ponder your own choices, and try to understand the choices of others. Support others as they reach and test their decisions. Remember the value of prayer, perseverance and a sense of humour. Take thought for the words you use, and the tones of voice in which you utter them.
Love brings both fulfilment and tension, and requires long-term commitment.
Sometimes, despite strong commitment, a relationship comes apart. If this happens to you, seek help in understanding each other's point of view, and in finding the right way forward. Where there are children involved, remember their needs and vulnerability, and care for them. Be selective in the life-style you choose. Take care of your body and your own well-being.
