Relationships are much sweeter when you and your partner are actual FRIENDS. You turn up together, gossip together, talk honestly, have fun, and generally vibe like besties. They shouldn’t replace your original friends but it’s great when your dynamic is more than just romantic.
Being able to call on and depend on a man is such a flex, IN MY OPINION! I mean yes I can absolutely handle things on my own but just knowing my life is a little easier because I’m supported and someone always has my back is top tier to me.
The older you get the more you realize you have no desire for drama, conflict or stress. you just want a cozy home, food on the table, and to be surrounded by genuine people who appreciate you
