The life I can see

Something I cannot achieve without you.

What I can picture if we decide to give each other another chance.

I picture us in a beautiful home with a spacious backyard and a swimming pool, maybe with mountains in the background, the kind of view people get around Seattle. Our parents are there, looking at us with pride. A few kids are running around, hopefully at least one boy and one girl. There's a goofy, overstimulated dog causing chaos, while an intelligent, perpetually annoyed cat watches everything unfold. Through it all, we're looking at each other with love, happy, proud, fit, and content with the life we've built together.

I'd wake up before you every morning, give you a kiss on the forehead, and make breakfast for both of us. Then I'd gently wake you up and help you get ready for work while I got ready myself. Maybe we'd shower together sometimes. You'd leave for the office with a lunch I had prepared over the weekend, and I'd head to my own office after dropping you off.

Dinner would be something we'd cook together while watching something fun. Before bed, I'd make sure we'd both taken our vitamins and were ready for the next day. I'd even pack your work bag so your morning would be a little easier. Then, after we'd cuddled and were ready to sleep, I'd give you a goodnight kiss, look into your eyes one last time, and hold you until you drifted off peacefully in my arms.

What I cannot fill in

Everything. I cannot do anything I said above without you. You made me feel home. You were my home. I need you.

Rules (something to discuss) I wish us to live by

1. We Tell each other everything.

2. Give each other a kiss every night before bed.

3. Never go to sleep in an argument. If space is needed we give it. We time out but sleep with each other in love.

4. Admit when we're wrong and apologize (properly).

5. Keep some things private (you know what).

6. Eat dinner together every night.

7. Keep manners and be polite to each other (saying please and thank you is underrated in relationships).

8. Knowing each others love languages and respecting them.

9. Tell each other our goals to make sure we're aligned.

10. Don't ever go longer than a week without being intimate.

11. Find common hobbies and interests that we can explore together.

12. Say "I love you" every single day.
