I had to add this. I could not sleep because I had this on my mind and well I think its neccesary to elaborate on relationships.
A relationship is a type of human interaction in which 2 people take their friendship to intimate levels. In a man-female relationship a boyfriend represents the "other half" so to speak, so does the lady. In a tipycal relationship between people of ages 12-25 it is not uncommon that a pair does not live together nor shares bills. In many cases each lives with parents and or roommates but away from each other. What that provides is a safety cushion between the two.. a little space of their own.. something of a refuge from each other in which if needed they could alienate themselves to think things through and come back to a relationship the day after a big fight and make up like nothing happened pver a cup of starbucks coffe and a donut from au bon pain. Then there is a relationship in which the two live with each other under the same roof as if they were a married couple. There are often bills involved, insurance policies and other finanical ties that bond the two without actual certificate of marriage. In this particular type of relationship two people live together, sleep together in the same bed, do their thing together, come back home and yada yada. Somewhere in that particular relationship little things start to add up. You may live in a perfectly harmonius relationship but little things really tick you off, such as her toothbrush always in the way or lady items right next to your folgers coffee or her misplacing keys or living a towel a bit to the right. Essentially it trickles somewhere deep inside your brain that you need to air your feelings out.. but you dont and when you do get into a fight you have no escape. Both of you live together often away from family and friends and its not like you can walk outside and sleep over at your friends house. She sends him on a couch.. he says things he should not say. She comes back with a whitty remark that sends him off the edge such as his habbit of saying ummm in between phrases. So he comes back and starts airing out every little thing. 3 days later there is dead silence in the house with both of you looking at the kitchen knives and a hanging frying pan and wondering how cool would it be to end it there and now. Eventually you work it out.. but before you do you spend 3 days sleeping in same bed with backs to each other, make weird sounds and give dirty looks as you pass each other in the hallway... when you do make up its not the same as if you were living separately. Your fight has embedded itself on your relationship and is like a cup of tar in a barrel of honey and every fight there after will only escalade cause you start fighting over really stupid things such as her buying a tic tac thing at the register. And there is no escape. There you sre back in your apartment or house punting at each other and knowing that you can not break up just like that because you have join bills and that he or she is really not that bad but you really hate them 3 hours of the day 7 days per week. You go to your folks house for a dinner and pretend like you are having a blast living together and being a couple when in fact under the table you feel her stepping on your toe to make you tell lies at the table. You go home at it still lingers. You are not married but after living together for 2 years it feels like you are. Then and there you know what relationship is all about. What Tina addressed as immaturity is a common misconseption and a very understandable one. Immaturity is a relative term and applies to any kind of situation. For example I could say that my mother is immature for not listening to people's advice.. but yet she is 45 with 3 kids.. so where does that place her on the scale? My old neighbor was really versed in mathematics but he was only 10.. does that make him immature because he is underaged or overly mature because he is a scientific phenomenon? Only way to finalize my post is to remind that readiness of being in a relationship and actually being in one represent 2 aspects of what relationship is all about. That little thing where 2 people kinda date and see each other casually does not even come close to people who are basically confined within boundaries of their house, finances and better half. I hope this should cover any further questions. -------------------- Captain Pessimist
