Ugh. It's my day off, and I'm wide awake at 5am. Which I guess isn't bad because that's sleeping in a couple hours for me. Think I'll put on some coffee, turn on a couple lights, and sit down to write.
Without going into too much detail, I just want to say how sad it makes me that there are so many couples out there that "play," and so many couples that have "arrangements," or are "open." I'm not judging those relationships, or those people, because every relationship is different and has its own rules and boundaries. But it makes me wonder - doesn't anyone believe in monogamy anymore? I guess I just don't understand. When I am with someone, I want to be with them, not them and someone else, or just someone else. For me, that's one of the big benifits of being in a relationship is knowing that someone wants me, wants to be with me and no one else. Doesn't anyone feel that way anymore? Granted, my two big relationships have been with men who never really wanted me. Chris wanted to be with everyone, and I only reminded Frank of the person he really loved. But even still, I want a partner. Someone to share this life with. Not someone that wants to share our bed. Maybe I'm just old fashioned. Even so, I think I'll hold out until I meet that one person who doesn't want anyone else.
