Pru: LOL

well overlooking is a choice. but most ppl chose it coz they’re blilnded by sth, some by love, some by community pressure, and some just for personal reasons, like wanting to get out of her parents house by marriage. everyone has a reason, but its not the right way to go i reckon. i might be a perfectionist however!

thanks hun, i thought so too!

oh dima why dont you call this entry what it really is; a critique of traditional marriage :p You’re decieving yourself when you give it such a general title but you’re not decieving me :O

I think when a woman is under pressure to get married she might willingly overlook the flaws or the weaknesses of the suiter, the same goes for the man. Overlooking is not self deciept; they can both see but they compromise! Perhaps this way is better since they both enter the marriage knowing that they have to work on it, they do not assume that “love” will maintain them and they are more realistic with their expectations which in my opinion gives them a better chance of succeeding.

Nice new look btw; it is more YOU

KJ: im not encouraging, bil3ax, i think its one of the main if not the only reason couples who were wed through traditional marriages and the ‘blinded by love’ group of ppl fail to be forever together. however, self-deception is sometimes acceptable to a certain level though, in a very MINUTE dosage. min mabda2 iltames la akheeka 3uthran. its not quite deception, but lets say im referring to ‘7usn thann’ as acceptable until proven otherwise.

Self deception should not be ecnouraged. Yes it may temporarily alleviate present threats, but that is usually called denial. A relationship that sustains itself on deception, self or otherwise, should not be held in the first place.

Batoul: couldnt come back after ‘the art of manipulation’ with something positive had to keep the mood a little. as i am arfaneh of humanity and humans!

marriage is a very sensetive issue, accepting such a lifelong committment based on self deceipt is a) very wrong b) going to come back with horrible consequences c) very wrong! for some, it works, but not for me. and obviously not for u either.

I request a positive psychobabble soon!
I’ve been actually put into the situation of traditional marriage and attempted self-deceiving to accept the man as a human in my life. Mission failed. Impossible for me to self-deceive in such a subject. I guess some though are pushed to do so and are so “BRAINWASHED” (previous post lol) to think its of norms. Al7amdella thats not possible in my household.

Psycobabble or not, some good truth of human behavior in there.
