SELLER + BUYER = LOVE. What is the true nature of loyalty?


Let's think about why a good wife like bad husbands?

The life of those unfortunate wives seemed kromešnym Adom, but once again othodiv the offending spouse pan, after they bitterly regretted confessed, repented and vymalivali his forgiveness. And they did this not because nowhere kids on stalls and salary of 90 dollars. They were true to their relationship, its history, soaked in a little funny, endearing, intriguing adventures and misunderstandings with terrible secrets. Simply correct relations.

The term "loyalty" is the foreign language reflected – loyalty. The harsh wife was loyal to her husband and the only reason was willing to forgive him all the worldly blemishes. Was ready and able to forgive. "Jumper" is a very important addition since, only being able to forgive, we do this without heavy trace on his soul.

And in the future we would like to see it whole life went only to you, not to take seriously your competitors and with a smile turned a blind eye to the grubiânov-sellers and the dust on the shelves.
