So I had made the conscious decision to be without a significant other after
several relationships had failed within a week or two of beginning. This was about a year ago. I did try to have another relationship and it ended up failing as well. I’m sure it wasn’t completely a fault of mine that time though, he was a lot to take care of.
I made this decision because I’m always busy with school and I believe that if I’m going to be in a relationship I want to give that person all of my love. This resulted in some questionable behavior but I knew I could not let my education be sacrificed at the expense of a relationship. Other people have no problem with this but I just couldn’t bring myself to do it despite a few delightful opportunities.
All of this changed recently.
I’m not neglecting my responsibilities with school, it’s flowing nicely between us. We both have work to do and we know that. I guess I just needed to find someone that I had feeling enough for to find a way to make it work. and it is working pretty well I think. Although it seems a little surreal at times just because of the quick emotional development, I’m thankful for these warm feelings.
and explanation of the title: so we were half asleep and apparently he was dreaming and muttered “we can build an aquarium” I was confused, it was funny.
