If you really want to love a woman, never get married to her. If you really want to adore a man, escape as far away from him as possible. Then you will always love.
But if you want to crash the whole love-affair, get married, the sooner the better. Go for a honeymoon, and by the time the honeymoon is finished, everything is finished. Suddenly one morning you look at the woman: she is an ordinary woman.
Have you heard the old story? A princess found a frog, and the frog said, "Lady, I have been cursed, and for five thousand years I have remained a frog. If you take me with you and if you allow me to sleep with you, in your bed, by the morning I will become a beautiful prince."
You must have heard... these types of stories are there.
And the princess brought the frog, and in the morning he became a beautiful prince.
But reality is just the opposite: You bring a beautiful prince; in the morning he becomes a frog! Every prince turns into a frog in the end. And then you are puzzled: "What happened? What went wrong?"
Nothing went wrong; the frog is a frog. The prince was your idea, it was your wish-fulfillment. You were wanting to have a prince, so you had him. You were longing, you were projecting, you were dreaming.
