10 life lessons I learned from the 'failed' relationship of Hrithik and Sussanne

It is a failed relationship only if your think it is.

Hrithik and Suzanne separated last year and something inside me broke and not because I was their fan but because they were together for 17 years! A couple that looked like they were made for each other just fell out of love? This seemed very scary to me initially but it did give me a different perspective on relationships. Here are 10 life lessons I learned from Hrithik and Suzzane's relationship:

• Listen to your inner voice. That is what matters and will show you the right path, trust it. We are often time confused about what exactly we want and carefully listening to your inner voice will tell you exactly what you want from life.
• People don't belong to you. You may own things but not people. Everyone has their own lives to live and you must respect that. You can't control people even if that ends up breaking your heart.
• You must respect your partners wishes even if that hurts you. True love isn't about achieving the person it is about their happiness too.
• Letting go is bliss. Sometimes letting go the things you love shows that you have reached the apex of maturity. When things are not working out it is better to let go than ruin it further.
• The worst decision you can make is not making any decision. Leaving things and running away from it will only give you pain. Make decisions and get done with it. Make way for new things in life.
• Relationships are just a big and beautiful part of life but not your whole life. There is so much more to life than having a great relationship like friendship, your passion, your parents.
• There is nothing called a perfect relationship and it is good. It doesn't have to be permanent either. It is both the white and black that makes a great relationship.
• True love does exist. No paper or marriage ceremony can assure true love. The feeling is with you and a breakup doesn't mean that the love doesn't exist anymore. It does and it is BEAUTIFUL.
• Your identity is solely yours. No partner can do justice to your independent identity.
• It's okay to break down it will help you find your own happiness. Meeting up friends, catching up on your hobbies and your passion helps a lot. Life moves on.
