Marriage, in its simplicity, is an agreement between two people. But, as Abdul Hamid, a noted psychotherapist at the MONOBIKASH Foundation, aptly puts it, "Without talking, nothing can progress." That’s where the journey begins—through conversations long before the wedding day.
We all know those meet-cutes: All it took was one gaze across a jam-packed event or restaurant and within seconds, they knew they had found “the one.” Of course, that sounds wonderful. After all, it is the subject of countless romantic books and movies. But, do people truly fall in love at first sight or is it an imaginary tale?
In the era of new terminologies established every other week, one too many have popped up in your newsfeed. “Sleep Divorce” was one such term that caught my eye, encouraging me to delve further into the unknown. Understanding the concept and realising that couples abroad practice, it sparked an inkling of questions: Do couples here implement such practices in Bangladesh?
For every person, falling in love might be quite distinct. And the feeling of first love? Some say it is exhilarating. However, love is like a rollercoaster ride, full of unexpected turns, highs, and lows, that may not always be what you hope for. So, will you only ever experience one passionate love? Or can you fall again? And, maybe again?
The spark that once fuelled your love may appear less intense than before as you juggle household responsibilities and professional obligations. You may, however, rekindle the romance in your relationship and rediscover its magic with a dash of effort and a bit of creativity.
Communication may be the key, but it only unlocks one of the many hypothetical doors in your relationship. Long-distance relationships go beyond just losing your night’s sleep or waking up at the crack of dawn to talk to your partner.
We've all experienced post-breakup scrolling sessions that make us feel even more unhappy than before. Reopening wounds you thought was healing may happen when you stumble onto old images, or see your ex's happy face pop up on your feed. It can be difficult to fully distance yourself from your ex-partners and move on when information about them is always readily available.
We feel validated when our partner shows us off to their network and broadcasts our feelings to the world. The question remains, should you really be sharing relationship milestones online? The truth is, behind the momentary rush of dopamine and picture-perfect moments is a complex web of pros and cons.
Picture this: It's a lazy Friday afternoon in Dhaka. The sky is overcast, and you are sipping on your third cup of cha, scrolling through your phone. Suddenly, the urge to solve your relationship woes with the wisdom of the internet grips you.

Did you ever find yourself attracted to someone different from you? Even though you are shy and creative, you have a thing for outgoing and athletic people. Or perhaps you party every weekend, but the one you love likes quiet evenings at home. Regardless, it is an age-old romantic cliché that opposites are more likely to fall in love.
