there is nothing wrong with being in a relationship. there is nothing wrong with not being in a relationship.
soul craves unity. soul craves oneness,,,sometimes soul looks for unity and oneness in human relationships instead of with god.
some say the only way back to god is to be a renunciant...not true. an example of this is lahiri mahasaya. he was a successful business man and married.
example of a successful renunciant...paramahansa yogananda.
god can be obtained either way. both have their challenges.

Dear One
i think you are missing the point here dear Yoshi. Jitendra is very aware that there are many paths to the infinite beloved.
What he is saying if i may kindly say for him, is that there are some people who come in our lives in the name of love
who really do not bring what they claim to others. They really do not love but come and bring pain in other people's lives.
It is fortunate for them that there are other people who really do care and come to heal and not aggravate wounds from the
careless use of the word love.
I shower rose petals on you,
Morning Star
