Day 1
I had one of the most in depth and intuitive conversations with my boyfriend tonight than we’ve ever had in our 6months of dating each other ending in what we’ve decided to call ‘probation period.’ As silly as this may all sound, I feel as though this may actually change our relationship for the better. We have had a lot of rough times and I mean ROUGH and things have not been the best especially the last three months. Let’s just say 2012 has not been our year. Anyways, what this has all came down to is that what’s important to us in our relationship and the fact that both of us have a lot of maturing we need to do to make this relationship work, which we both obviously want or else why the hell would we still be together. We also need to have a better understanding of each other which also includes being a better listener when the other person is talking about something. In a normal situation, we would not pay that much attention to what is important to the other person and one of the most important things in a relationship is conversation. Another thing we need to work on is being able to connect on a more mentally knowledgeable level. We are both relatively intelligent individuals who choose more often than not to not use our brains, dumb decision I know. So, for me I’m going to dedicate myself to reading the news whether that be via internet or actually picking up a newspaper and being able to have legit facts on a subject. Be able to have an intellectual conversation!! Another issue is that we aren’t honest with each other. We tend to always bend the truth when it comes to certain things to either not hurt the other person’s feelings or just because we are afraid of what the other may think. That’s going to change. All in all, starting TOMORROW well basically today I suppose, we are on a 2week probation period in our relationship. If things have not started to improve in this 2week period, the relationship will be terminated and thus on our part, 6months wasted (NEGATIVE, not what we want) OR after the 2week period we will realize we do still have what we found attractive in each other when we first met and we will be happier than ever. Relationships are not easy, they take a lot of work. You can not just give up half way through and think it’s still going to be as perfect as it was in day one.
