broken glasses and fake nails

What a beautifully dreary Wednesday it is. This day is perfect. Actually, I think everyday has been perfect since Aaron waltzed back into my life. In the last 3 weeks, I've talked to him on the phone more than I've talked to anyone in the last year. I don't think there's anything we haven't talked about. Our talks are kind an in depth interview as we test out how compatible we might be. In all our ramblings, we've touched on the topic of relationships many times and where people go wrong in them. We came up with 3 universal things that couples fight about but I'll save that for a different blog. I have a different theme in mind today.

I'm guessing a good majority of the females in my generation grew up watching Disney movies like I did. A lot of us probably had an obsession with princesses and fairy tales for a period of time. The picture of a "perfect relationship" was formed at a young, impressionable age and I know some girls that are still waiting for their unrealistic prince charming. The person I want to be with will be far from a prince.

I just want someone who can be real with me... who will still like me when I'm standing in the pouring down rain in front of his office at 9:30 at night, wearing wet, lazy day clothes and missing a fake nail. Someone who can laugh and say "fuck it" while showing me all the wine glasses he accidently broke doing dishes. Someone who giggles with me while trying to casually walk out of a nice restaurant when we are completely sauced from expensive wine. And when I say I don't want to go out because my face is sunburnt, he'll tell me my face could be green for all he cares. Hopefully I'm lucky enough to snag that man :)
