a late night quote.

"Someone made up all of these stupid titles and all I really want to do is love someone"

i never have understood all of the relationship titles. we're "seeing each other". Does that mean you are also seeing other people as well? sure you are unless you do not have sight. we're "together"...well, yeah...that's comforting and sweet. Does that mean you are committed to one another, in love...loyal, honest? At what point do things become offical, and what title is that...marriage? courting? When did relationships become selfish and non-committal? While I was on this last work trip I had a few conversations with girls that had just been broken up with after 3 and 4 year relationships. they thought it would end in marriage...they had discussed houses, family etc. I wonder what their titles were..."dating" i think...just seems like a loose and flipant term that can be destroyed at any point when someone needs space. If you need "space" from someone after 4 years odds are that you will eventually need a break later on down the road too. When did we stop working on things, sitting down and really dissecting issues that come up...figuring out a plan to better the relationship. Instead, it is easier to just back off...because after all, it's just a title that is easily broken. hmmm i am thinking that i will have to invent my own title in order for it to genuinely mean something to myself and the person I am with. interesting.
