What if romantic relationships could be like respectful friendships? Two people connect over shared interests, worldview, common threads…. They decide that they like each other’s company. They actually talk about what matters to them.
There is no manipulation. They actually LIKE each other. They spend more time together and are open to going deeper. Direct, heart to heart communication. Being real. No trying to impress. Kindness, caring, love, mutual respect, fun.
Some of my best relationships began that way.
Wishing that for anyone who wants it in their lives. I do. <3
