For me, it is something I look forward to, something that I would love to experience. Or more extreme, something I HAVE to go through, something that would make my life complete.
So what happens when you want to stay with that single person forever, but he/she doesn't want the same things that you want.
I was shocked and upset when I heard it. But I do see your point. And the thought of never sharing that memory with you, it's terrifying.
For me, marriage is an idea. It's an idea that's been put out for everyone to see. It's like after spending so much time together, you realize that you love one and other, and you decide to show that to the world. It's like showing off your other half.
And it's not about the advantages or the drawbacks that it has on both parties, I don't even think you should think about that. For me, a relationship is not what you gain out of it, it's what you share. And thinking about you thinking about what you'd get out of it is enough to make me cry and wonder about everything. I don't want it to be about that. I want it to be about what you are willing to share with me, not that I need the material stuff to know.
It's almost like, you love this person so much, you want the whole world to know. You want the whole world to witness the magic, the chemistry and the love that you have for each other.
And you think marriage is about a piece of paper.
It's not.
I've always loved watching weddings. It's the one thing you should do once in your life. That day is all about you, having everyone being happy because of you. On that day, it's like nothing can stop you on your track, and nothing can make you doubt yourself. It's the one day when you feel like you're the centre of the universe, when you feel absolutely stunning. And when you walk down that aisle on your father's arm while staring intently into your soon-to-be husband's eyes, knowing that moment and that feeling will stay with you forever.
For me, it's just a magical experience that you'll remember for the rest of your life.
I don't know. I don't know if I should feel glad and happy that you think we'd last without any obligations, or I should feel disappointed and sad because you and I don't want the same things. Hmm.
