If it makes you less sad
I’ll move out of the state
You can keep to yourself
I’ll keep out of your way
And if it makes you less sad
I’ll take your pictures all down
Every picture you paint
I will paint myself out
It’s as cold as a tomb
And it’s dark in your room
When I sneak to your bed
To pour salt in your wounds
So call it quits
Or get a grip
Say you wanted a solution
You just wanted to be missed

Is it wrong that people have a “set” ideal of who they want their partner to be? Do we miss out on opportunities because maybe someone doesn’t fit your ideal lover? When I think about what I want out of my “partner in crime” I can actually think of what he would look like…how he would act…but is this being too picky or just waiting for that person you invision to actually come around? And if you DO stop being so choosy, is that lowering you standards? Makes you wonder if it’s fate or in the end, your choose of who you ultimately end up with.
When I was young, I was an idealist and a hopeless romantic. After having my heart ripped out a couple times, I became pretty numb and closed off. After a lot of work and repair, I’d like to think that I’ve finally gotten to a healthy and optimistic balance. I’m no longer super picky about every little thing. I tend to focus on the important things and let everything else become something quirky that I can fall in love with in time. So I think it always depends on the person, what they’ve been through and where they are in their life.
But there’s a great article about what is being referred to as the “Good Enough” marriage. Read it. Might help.
