....well, I mean, if I were in a commited, serious relationship, I'd want it all the time....

girlhappy said:It is so interesting to read all this views about relationships. I always thouhgt i was among the few freaks who cant/wont commit. The truth is: when i was younger i thought that is all i want, in fact it was other way round.I just didnt realize that. But, now, i really think i need a home, home ,home. Same as Xtal about practical things and full of insecurities,but what i really want is someone who is my home.Does that makes sense?
I just wonder..where is the line between our needs and true love? I always wonder. (maybe the subject for another thread)
Too true that a lot of people don't think through this distinction before making the leap. Lust and romance (in the sense of that constantly giddy, intoxicated feeling) are closer than many realize, IMO.Irvine511 said:i also want to make sure that it's real, and it's not lust and the fact that i'm thrilled by the idea of going to Restoration Hardware with someone and picking out shower curtains with appropriately coordinated bath towels.
I think that pretty much nails it, and all the more so if and when children enter the picture. There is a lot of submission and humbling that goes into a successful longterm relationship, and it's just not minute-to-minute exhilarating in the way romance is, but the world of intimacy and deeply shared dreams it opens up to you is like nothing else on earth.what this relationship has done for me, in a short time, is entirely rethink what i originally thought about myself... there's something almost liberating about caring about someone and not being the complete and total center of your universe.
