i notice a trend that i had been following the past year and a half or so. after i got married, i nested like every other stupid girl who gets married and nests. this involves decorating the home even if that home is a box girls want to make it look like something out of a magazine. i also bought a shit ton of frames and took a shit ton of shitty pictures to put in the frames. thats what girls do when they nest. they take lots of pictures with their new spouse (these later will be a cause of misery when you split up and you're stuck with twenty frames of happier times.) girls will also buy lots of movies that they share with new spouse so that when other newlyweds come over for wine and a movie they can all talk about how many movies they have and their favorites. like the photographs in the frames, the movies will be a miserable topic. the movies will be divided "fairly".
sometimes these girls and guys will invest in a pet maybe in place of a kid? something they can both be responsible over. these couple will move several times in the first few years, because that's what we do. we're still young enough to be irresponsible and spontaneous and if we weren't we would just bitch and complain that this life is boring and what happened to the days where we weren't nailed down to a place to live? we also buy groceries and cook for each other. we buy coasters for our coffee tables and lots of candles.
that is what we do and it robs your soul. it steals your personality. and you should avoid it at all costs. i do not know why the institution of marriage is so alluring to people but it is. they think that is the only way you can be happy with someone- the ultimate level of happiness. dating for ten years is not enough, we need more. we need to know you have to go through months of divorce and paperwork and money and trauma if we want to leave our relationships. thats how we know we care. and we will not be satisfied until we do that.
it's also a venomous virus. once you have experienced the desire to be with someone forever you cannot even imagine not having someone forever. that is, until you become jaded. so fatigued by the game that you know you will never go through that again. and maybe you wont. until that person that completely wipes your memory away comes along.
whoah that was fucking deep it probably reads like shit though. there is a flash flood warning in sv today. i kind of want a peanut butter honey and banana sandwich now.
