Love is important. A relationship without love is a relationship without fun, it is tedious and only causes conflicts, that is true, but a relationship that has love as the main reason for union will shake a lot and will be in situations of doubt more times than those you could think that no.

Why I said that?
Love is volatile, it is variant because it is an emotion. This means that you can go up and down according to mood and circumstances. There are days where we love things more and other days where we love things less. By taking this into account, we can know that if we take love as the main reason to relate to our partner we are putting a tray with crystal glasses on the seat of a roller coaster.
Can you imagine being a couple of someone who lets himself be carried away only by what he feels? You would go crazy!

If a person is with you just because he loves you, the day that person feels he doesn’t love you so much anymore, that person will leave you, but then when that person misses you he will feel a lot of love again and will want to return with you, then there will be another day when that person doesn’t feel so much love and will leave you again, and thus creating a vicious circle. That is lack of discipline! That's lack of commitment! That's not healthy!
Joining your partner for love is not enough!
So, how are you going to join in relationship for love with someone? Doing it for love is not enough! Love is important, there is no doubt about that. It is very important that there is love, but it cannot be the reason that unites them. There are days when there is not so much love, those are the days when problems arise. And for not having other reasons why they join then the relationship ends or becomes fragile!

There must be something bigger
There must be a greater reason to join. They need a project: a purpose. The couple must determine an end to their union. Couples must be united by a plan, a goal. It can be living together, making family, helping the world with their love, being an example for others with their relationship, etc.
Without a doubt, love is important, but this will work so that there is more in times when there is little, and that is achieved through the establishment of a purpose. If a couple is only united by love, if their only motive is love, they will be in trouble. If you can only say that what unites you with your partner is love, then your relationship is a poor relationship.
