i thought you'd never ask ...

here's a copy of what i put on my Mangle Page
several months ago ...

/////////

I see a lot of people who are looking for their "soul mate".
... for a long time they are looking.

I think that this is wonderful in theory.

I also think that this becomes a bit tougher to pull off
as we get older.

We do not as readily "grow" with another person as we did
when we were nineteen.

We may have acquired a few "habits" and "ruts" and
"idiosyncrasies" along the way.

As lovable as I know I am ...
I realize that sometimes a little bit of me
can go a long way.

so ...

What if two people who genuinely liked each other
decided to be equal, mutual, exclusive, monogamous lovers ??

... saw each other regularly while doing their best to
avoid all of life's little negative realities.

... did their best to keep it positive and exciting.

Nothing "casual" about it ...

Real "Pals & Lovers" to the tenth power.
... but not under each others feet the rest of the time.

Possibly (?) allowing it to reach levels that we may
not have experienced before.

I can't speak for all of "them"
but I certainly am.
