Molasses, dawdling, lackadaisical, sluggish, stagnant...


“Iceberg slow” has never been my forte.  I’m one of those “leap before you look” kinda gals. While that may have lead to a brutal, gruesome splat to the ground, that doesn’t mean that I didn’t think I was flying beforehand. I’ve thought that I was stupid but I’m not sure I’ve regretted many decisions that were made the way I make them. That being said, there’s something kind of…precious about taking it slow. I’ve realized that I don’t know much about him when it comes to the little things like his favorite color (green) or his middle name (Lynn, family name =P) or even what his parents do for a living. Can you have a “relationship” while at the same time, not knowing the small details about the person? I can’t count how many times we’ve had deep, philosophical discussions but rarely have we had the get-to-know-you kinda talks. Is that necessarily a bad thing? I can’t think that something that makes me this happy is a bad idea.

I think there's always room to get to know eachother... isn't part of a relationship learning new things about eachother every day? Speaking of leap before you look gals, we get bored easily. Maybe not knowing those things are the way we stay interested enough to keep it a long-term relationship? Just a thought.
