Maybe I Don't Want Normal....

Have you ever asked yourself what is "normal" when it comes to a relationship? Peter said to me a few days ago, this is the first normal relationship he has been in for a long time.....no maybe he said the first ever. Just what is normal? If I go by the relationships that I have been in and what I have seen from others around me then normal is fighting, taking each other for granted, being in competition with each other and just not respecting each other. So no.....I don't want normal. I want more. I believe that anybody in a committed relationship can have that. It's not about trying really hard because I don't think we should have to work at it. It's not about trying to change someone because we all know that the only person we can change is ourself.. It is about having faith in someone and accepting them the way they are. It's about compromise and balance in all things. When it comes right down to it, it is about LOVE. Love without expectations. Unconditional Love. Before I even came here I noticed that I felt at Peace for maybe the first time ever in my life. I don't feel like I am searching any more. I feel like I have arrived. He thinks what I did was brave.....driving all those miles to be with him....but I think I am just following my path that after all these years has led me to him.

    Maybe your old normal is what you're going by and this will be your new normal. ;)

  2. I don't think there's such a thing as a "normal" relationship. And I think the most important thing is that both people are happy in the relationship.

  5. "Normal" is such a slippery word. Who wants to be "the same as everyone else" anyway?

    When "normal" means "totally self actualized and happy", I'll settle for being "normal"!
