There are people I know (and people that some of my people know) that have been married five or six times. Seriously, they have. Sometimes, I wonder to myself ... "how is it that these people decided to marry five or six people, and I have never made that choice once?" The one person that I ever truly imagined myself walking down the aisle with is not the person whom I should marry. Really, he isn't, and I base that statement on many valid reasons, but oh, how I love him. Maybe I love him for who I want him to be, maybe I love him because I am wildly attracted to him, maybe I love him because we are just as similar as we are different, maybe I love him for his mind, maybe I love him because he is usually very lighthearted, or maybe I love him because he tolerates me. I don't know, all I know is that my soul feels a connection to his and I love him, but he's now cross country in the snow, and I'm left here in the milder and finer clime.
P.S. For the British and more proper ... the title word (Whut) is not a misspelling, it's purposeful and slang.

Well you haven't given me a reason not to marry him! If the feelings mutual it sounds gooood x
ReplyDeleteAhhh ... well, the reasons to not marry him wouldn't sound as nice as the reasons I love him. Let's just say we share as many differences as we do similarities and some of those are value based. Location is also an obstacle. He doesn't want to live in the south, and I could not imagine living in any other region of this very diverse country.
ReplyDeleteSometimes sacrifices have to be made for something to work. Location shouldn't trump love, but I understand. When it's right, you'll know.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree "Auntie of 14," and location likely wouldn't trump love if some really other important reasons were in place, so I had to say to myself, "Do I leave all I know, all I have worked for, all the people I love and who love me, and a heritage to which I am also in love with, in order to see if the moon, stars and sun line up. Part of me would like to take that risk, but my practical side said no. So, I still lust for him mind, body and soul, but I remain true to what I instinctually know. I know this sounds like a romantic tragedy, but I have glossed over the reasons to let go and for this I apologize.
