1. Relationship Myths: All Relationships Must Begin With Passion
It was nothing but a lie when all those people, maybe friends, actors or strangers fed you the story that I met my lifelong partner and I knew it just by the intensity of the passion we felt when we just met. Chances are it was just a fling when they met. Eventually, it might have had changed into something more meaningful, but do not rush into a relationship. The only way you can guarantee an everlasting relationship is not by the intensity of passion you felt when you met your partner for the first time, but the emotions that led you to feel what you feel for him or her after a period. Love is a very complex emotion that cannot happen within minutes or even hours. The passion that builds from love thus takes its own time.

So not true.
Though if you both are fighting all the time, it’s better you both choose your separate paths.

However, I would suggest it is better if you help your partner to figure out a middle ground with your friends and family. Sure you both will be the ones in the relationship. However, you can’t expect to keep your partner out of those family meetings and hangouts with your friends.
