I think that most relationships tend to be based only on how well the person does in bed or about how people generally always want to have fun but can never truly be happy because of what it is they are missing. The one person who can change the course of anothers history and the balance that comes from looking deep inside and searching the soul to read the gaze that comes from a persons eyes and really settle on the points not spoken. When two people come together and really want something they will go to the darkest reaches of Hell and back to be together. And to conquer all obstacles and battles together. When things seem hopeless and if you think that you are drifting apart from each other, look to what has been conquered and there you will find the strength to go on and settle things. Wake up everyday and see the one you love with their skin shining in the daylight and glistening with dew. Kissing them and embracing them and never letting go even for a moment. Spend time together even if you are at work. Talk on the phone for a piece or bring your lover a cup of coffee and a smile to their jobs for them. These are the little things that truly make a relationship last a lifetime.

Glad ya have it all figured out at 23

Oh, and welcome to Mingle - have a blast.

Welcome to the site and thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!

Yeah, I know it's not about just sex and good times and what each other has to offer to amuse themselves. A real relationship runs so deep. Best friends, confidants, lovers, old age, knowing winks and giggles, fighting the fights and being there for each other in the crazy, tough, emotional times, the whole shebang!

For a young man well said....good luck with your search, and WELCOME
