To find a love so unique and unconditional in life is amazing. It is knowing in my heart that they may be the one is a gift I cannot communicate too early. It is when we both know by words and actions but do not yet let anyone else know yet. It may be a long and natural process, as our differences and transparency with each other settle.
I am at an age that falling in love is still a visual impairment at first, but with time having a platonic relationship with them lessens but becomes more intimate. There may be a point where the relationship plateaus for a while, and that, too, may be a necessary process in the overall development of it. It is a slow dance at first where connection and communication are tools for making it better. Settling arguments in a kind way and working through each other’s vices is important.
There will be times of dissonance between us, and being in a committed relationship is not often easy. I know now how to attach and detach for a while within my relationships. Being open with each other and not keeping secrets about anything, except horrible past resolved experiences. Our love for each other will conquer any feelings of wrongness, but we will talk calmly with any such thoughts that are still hanging on in, at least, one of us. I currently practice being less egotistical.
There are trials and tribulations with every personal relationship. We must allow each other to change if it gives us growth. The one growth we should not ever worry about is growing older together and gaining much wisdom from anything that occurs within our relationship.
You and I will stay the same but have the capability to transform into more Christlike people, hopefully together.
