On Commitment and Love

[caressing_you]

At first glance I would assume that I am the type to commit. I don't date around, I'm looking to settle down eventually, I like the idea of security, family, companionship

I beleive more and more that commitment (of the marriage calibre) is more of a decision than anything else. It takes two people who are at that stage of their lives and looking for that same thing to decide to make it work. I think when you're feeling that way and ready and you meet someone who feels the same, it will make more sense to you. I'm kind of the opposite, I put my heart and soul into everything and i've had it shattered many times as a result, so i'm learning to be guarded, but i hate that about myself. I think deep down I want to still believe in storybook romances because it's such a beautiful idea, but I believe more and more that love sometimes has to be a decision and I hate that.

"How can I ever promise that my love will never fade when I know that it's in my nature to constantly harbor doubts."

I think if you find the right person, they will understand that's part of who you are and it'll be okay. Maybe you won't have to make that promise.

Also, don't eat cream of wheat at your desk. Bad plan. (I just got cream of wheat in my keyboard...)
