Just a while back I heard a friend say " I don't do relationships... Expectations immediately go up when you put a status to something... It's better to let things remain simple , fuss free... that way no one gets disappointed."
I now realise the astounding amount of truth in her words. I guess I'll never know if I'm cut out for relationships...or none at all. Maybe my ideal companions are 5 cats and a house, and maybe the telly (or Internet).
One thing's for sure: I really hate the word 'marry' right now. I'm not sure how this works. You get bound to a fella for a few years and (maybe) have kids....spend the most of your remaining years together fussing over the kid(s)...save up for retirement together?
Really?? Oh. My. God.
Maybe the whole equation would be nicer if the "kids" part was taken out.....Yeah?
Why is it that... Your relationship partner is normally assumed to be your soulmate and best friend? Some husbands/ wives feel more comfortable talking about some problems to say...a friend instead of the former.
Do you believe that there can be platonic friendships between people of the opposite sex? I think it's possible....in certain circumstances. But I also believe that such friendships can possibly ruin each other's relationships with other partners...Hey , anything's possible, right?
I am a self confessed green eyed monster...and I admit that up till now, I don't really have an idea of love between couples. It's really hard to imagine who'd be your confidant, sex partner, best friend all in one. I think I've trust issues. Period.
I find it difficult to let someone into my life intimately... It's akin to giving away a part of myself. I'm too insecure to do that. The only person I trust is myself.
