Single? No.

Single? I don't think so.

The single life…is it really so glamorous?

Is the idea of not having anyone to please, call to, pay attention to but yourself really that appealing? I honestly would not know. I have been in a perfectly, lovely, monogamous relationship for over two years now and honestly it is the most calming thing ever. No it is not perfect in the sense that we NEVER fight, but it is perfect because I know no matter how short a time I have been gone and for no matter what reason I will have my loyal boyfriend waiting to see me at home. Regardless of if he would have preferred I didn't leave in the first place, once I got home he would suddenly be ecstatic and would not be able to stay mad at me. This truly is the beauty of love. True love never ends. It never ceases to exist. 

No matter what the circumstances, no matter who is mad at who there will always be love and NOTHING in the world will ever change that. I love my boyfriend and I could not imagine life without him.

Yes, of course I wonder what it would be like to not be tied down to anything, but when I really think about it…I think it would be awful. I feel like there would be no consistency and I would always worry about pleasing everyone else instead of myself and my boyfriend because after all when I am pleased he is pleased and when he is pleased I am pleased. He is truly my other half. I always know where I will be sleeping that night, who I will be sleeping with, and what I will do if i get cold. I know I always have someone there to protect me, cherish me, hold me, cuddle me, and most of all love me. I will never be tossed out again; I will never be thought of as just another pretty little thing waiting in the line for the biggest douche bag. I will always be by the side of my boyfriend with his hand in mine ready to take on the world one step at a time. Until next time.
