Dirty Love

thefirstlight:

I want a grown relationshiop. One with depth, not just silly puppy love.

I want the kind of relationship that when we go to a party/gettogether that people are envious of us. They want what we have even when we don’t say anything. Just the way we SIT beside each other should be different.

I know this takes time, I do. And by grown, I don’t mean a lack of humor or fun. Trust me, that will be present. But the kind of relationship that has sophistication for miles when necessary.

Some couples I see these days get on my nerves with their shallowness. It’s entirely apparent that they’ve never been through anything together. You can tell that their love has never been tested.  put to the fire.  Even couples my age fall into this trap.  It’s difficult, I know. It’s difficult for us to take a step back and evaluate things as they’re happening. But, if you don’t do this, you’re in a shallow/weak relationship before you know it with no easily accessible way out.

Love is not a feeling; it’s a commitment. I want the kind of love that isn’t perfect. The kind of love that has scars, burn marks and dried up tears. And with the perseverance of this love, it becomes perfect.

The very presence of this perseverance will overshadow and eliminate any past scars and burns. The past doesn’t matter; Only your future together does.

I’m not asking for trials, mind you. But if that’s what it takes to make love as perfect as it can be, I’ll take it.

amen.
