Yep. I'm in love. With this guy. Have been since 1990. I asked him on our first date and he asked me on our second and the rest is history. He is my everything and we are intrinsically connected. Ups and downs, passion runs a river through us sometimes, but at the end of even those days, we are still connected and we fall asleep with our legs or arms or hands intertwined; content. We are where we are supposed to be.
"You don't have to be looking each other in the eye (though sometimes I love that and it makes me all mushy) all the time as long as you are looking in the same direction." and to that quote I will add that 'You don't even have to be on the same page sometimes because you will get where you are going together if you are just moving in unison in the same general direction.' You cannot and will not always agree. You might not even agree 50% of the time (sometimes we don't) but on the big stuff, children, raising them, money (ok a little), God, trust........if you are there on the big stuff, you're pretty much as close as you'll ever get. There's no perfect. NONE. Don't let anyone fool you. If you are reaching for that, you'll be reaching forever and will have missed your life as it breezed by you; looking for the elusive object you think exists. Perfect love. Perfect love is you accepting a lot of things you don't want to and letting some things slide that you can't change or control. Finding that happiness in yourself. I am a very blessed girl. For having this in my life and knowing it is my perfect even though it is far from perfect. It's absolutely PERFECT.
