Real friends don’t seek validation behind your back – they seek resolution – with you

When I look at the bigger picture – eternity, purpose, peace – I realize how little these things truly matter. Life is so incredibly precious, but so incredibly short; too short to dwell on things that are out of your control, like other people’s perception of you.

I want petty fights about mundane things and screaming at each other and slamming doors, brightening up your dark days and you love me all the same

I love this person and there was a fall out, we are trying to propose the vision for this friendship

It is my habit to play out the end game of a scenario and I have played out the end game in different ways in my head and I’m prepared to face it with peace. I have been thinking with myself, what I need to build this true friendship. I have never built a friendship intentionally, almost all my friendships happened naturally, it is not that this love and laughter did not start off as natural but it has been infected. I’m valuing meaningful friendships as I grow older and it is because I know that to reignite something you must build. This person taught me the importance of values and I intend to structure life around it.

I had everything just how and where I wanted it. I had a fruitful and fulfilling career, nice ride, clean and beautifully decorated apartment in the heart of the Bay Area, lifelong and loyal friends, kids all doing well…. I felt at the top of my game. I decided out-of-nowhere, that I wanted to be married. So, since my longtime lover and I had to part ways, I thought it would be a good time for me to try to meet someone I could make a life with.

It certainly doesn’t bode well for us, considering that most romantic/sexual relationships end.
