She: Do you think there is one right person for everybody?

He: I don't know... but what I know is often we confuse attraction for rightness!!!

When I was looking at this scene from "The Runaway Bride" I was incidentally thinking of something on similar lines... is staying together for life of someone being the right person for you a function of your initial liking or attraction?

I would partially agree to this, coz the first impression is something that might or might not change with time... but then you get to know so much about the person with time that you might want to revisit your thoughts about staying with them.... I am not saying that one should first give away false dreams and hopes and then take them away...

But I think one should be careful enough to not lead to a bitter situation when you think the other person is worth being with...

Be careful when you deal with people who you care for... do not do things that might hurt them!!!

    good if you think that way... i think there is nothing called right or a wrong person.. there are mismatches yes...but then if you are keen then you can carry on with happiness too...

    and let me rephrase what you wrote here... and you r lucky if you can find that person!

    And what do you think, I don't know all this? It's just that I think there's no point in the same. Agar aap logon ko sooli chadna hai, to chadna hi hai! :D

  14. I dont think there can ever be a right person for you.. People change over a period of time.. What once may seem right may not seem the same sometime later.. whats important is to understand each other and ignore subtle disagreements..

    And happy bday to ur blog :) so where's the cake buddy???

  15. Ahem, per pehle tum logon ko sooli pe chadte hue dekhunga :P

  17. I agree with this that we oten confuse attarction with rightness ..but on the otherside no one actually know initialy that this is attatction or u actually think that person is rite for ..and rightness has diffent levels..
    its messy subject but simple solution is follow ur heart ..

    and yes i agee u shd not hurt the ppl u love ..cos I sincerly belive if u do that then there is smthing wrong with ur feeling..


    thinking is good way to know urself :)

    HAPPY BITHDAY "RIGHTMORE"

    may u see many more posts :D

  18. me late...but you mentersay Rightness is a Function of Attraction?

  19. Happy birthday Rightmore. Wishing you a long innings on your second birthday.

    I dont think there is just one right person for everyone, specially because the several "rights" that make a person right or perfect for us...the very definition of that does keep changing over time. And yes, people and relationships are fragile. If you want them in your life, you gotta care for them plenty.

    yea yeah !!!

    yes, being with someone for a lifetime is a project that everyone takes... and there would be good things there would be bad things... li'il that you can do about them all... so live the way the other person wants to instead of changing them for yourself...

    # kishley...
    i think so too...

    the cake is with me... come over and have it...

    # subbu..

  23. i agree to some extent....attraction is always not rightness, it can be mere infatuation but if u cling on to it, u will never find anything wrong wid it.coz then u just dont wanna let it go!

  25. right and wrong are many a times just a matter of perception..perceptions change with time...

  26. yes u cant always follow ur heart but here we are talking abt attarction and rightness ..and these are function of heart ..heart feel smthing for someone thats call attraction... heart makes a person right for us ..so heart is the only factor which can be trusted ..i don think mind play any role here ..agar aisa hota toh there wil be no Attaraction or no roightness ..we can choose any one according to our need and requirement ..life easy hoti tab
