Sometimes, I think to myself: are romantic relationships important? Well, obviously yes but what I mean is that is it necessary to have one when you have a degree with 2 more years to complete? Recently, my friend has been telling me when I am actually going to search for a prospective lifelong companion since my answer to his question is always: I'm not searching for one.
For me, I'm not really ready for a relationship. Truthfully, I've never had a boyfriend before. I had only crushes here and there that were not serious to the point where I thought to myself: "I want to be with him". Enough about me...now moving on to the real topic where I voice out my personal thoughts about romantic relationships in general.
Obviously since I am 'inexperienced', I would probably be sputtering out nonsense that only people who have romantic partners would understand. Basically, I know that being a couple means to enjoy each other's company unconditionally and having someone who actually understands you in a very deep and personal level. I know that showing each other love is important. It can be done through words and actions. Of course positive words and actions with positive repercussions and intentions. Not harming the other or stripping the other of independence, all in the name of 'love'. So, I don't get why some couples tend to be shameless and shower each other with 'love' so blatantly in public. Like holding hands. Is it really necessary? Whenever I see couples hold hands, refusing to let go at all, I find it extremely annoying and clingy. Not only are they blocking other people's paths, it just shows how dependent they are of the other and I feel that this is not good. If you guys truly love each other, you can separate from each other for a brief moment, believing that the other will always stay by your side since you guys are damn near to each other. Yes, I am referring to the couples who hold hands while ordering food and climbing up the stairs.
At the same time, it's not my place to rant since I've never been in a relationship before so maybe I won't understand the intense need for this closeness. It's not that I don't want to be in a relationship. I just want a meaningful first relationship which will hopefully be the last one and lead to lifelong marriage. Hopefully, I'll find my true love who will meet all my expectations.
