I am sitting with a friend both i us talking about past loves
How we both had that person, that one person we really really loved like in the movies kind if loved
He said he doesn't think that hell ever have that again
I said you're right we won't
As much as I'd love to go back to that mushy puppy love phase we had when we got flowers for making it a month of "dating" or having an obnoxious amount of flowers and teddy bears sent because they could not be in person for valentines day
The truth is we will never really have that again... And as nice as it may be to reminisce about..we've grown
We are old
We have kids
We have life experiences that allow us to worry about more then whether it not we graduate
They say we hold onto out first love for the rest if our lives
And for the longest time I ha thought that meant wed still love them when really it has nothing to do with them
It's the fiction like memory we share with them and only them
"It's not about who we want to spend Friday night with, but who we want to spend all day Saturday with"
My god I love this
Because it doesn't just mean life is more then a Friday night one night stand
But when we finally find someone that the next day we say I wouldn't mind spending all day with then today
And then again the next day
And to be honest sometimes we have to just give people the chance that hey for a Saturday or two i do not want to spend all day with you
But eventually that changes and we grow and that my friends is the adult rated version of our high school puppy love
Unless your lucky.. In which case refer back to my "Germany" post
So ill end with saying
For what it's worth it was worth all the while I hope you had the time of your life
That all makes sense now
