For the life of me I cannot understand the relationship of other couples, but then again some times I do not even understand my own. Then again, who would understand mine? I live in Southern California, go to school in San Jose, my boyfriend lives in the Central Valley just under two hours away from my school, and I travel back and forth to spend time with him, just as he does the same to see me when possible.
I know I shouldn't compare my relationship to that of others but I'm pretty sure that I am not the only significant other who has thought what my relationship would be like if my significant other did this or that. How wrong can it be to compare what is special between to people to what may be special to others? Well, I found out after some heated words that were exchanged between myself and my significant other that there is a red flag when it comes to comparing relationships.
You should not compare something that is so intimate and personal that two people share to that of others; and here's the reason why: if you truly love the person you are with then others do not matter. When there is that gut feeling of the world revolving and you are the only two standing on this revolving planet other people do not matter. It does not matter if one couple is always affectionate in public or that other have a designated date night. What does matter is how your own relationship is special to you and your significant other.
I apologize to m boyfriend for comparing some actions of others to our own. I love him just the way he is.
