stomache knots.
heart flutter.
sappy music.
future flashes.
new feelings.
illogical thoughts.
senseless aspirations.
no such thing as true love?
She said they only dated 4 months before they got engaged, but she knew the very first date he was the man she would marry. Twenty-eight years later they are still together. They still love eachother. They still kiss and hug and call eachother their best friend. Although they fight they are eachothers rock. She still thinks he is handsome and he still tells her she is pretty. They will grow old in rocking chairs together. They are eachother soul mate. They are my parents.
They pass their judgement. I always worry about their approval of who I am with. They want someone for me that will give me a better life. Isn't a better life relative? To them it equals money or a college education with a big corporate job. Granny is the same way too. I know what I feel but I just get anxiety over knowing they won't approve of anyone that I ever pick. I think a better life is one enriched with love.
