• 'Cause when I looked into your eyes,
    and you dared to stare right back
    You should have said, "Nice to meet you,
    I'm your other half"
    ~The Best Thing, Relient K


    There are things that you will be told in your life, that may or may not be true. Cliches and proverbs that come a dime a dozen, and sometimes cheaper. We've all heard them, and we've all rolled our eyes at them, or considered them. Well, here are some that I have found helpful, or a pile of an excrement better left untouched, even with a plastic baggy.

    1. First impressions are the truest: FALSE.

    Rationale: If first impressions were the truest, then I'd still be a dumb blonde bimbo in my boyfriend's eyes. And I've certainly learned that he isn't ALWAYS brooding. Though I stand by my conviction that his height makes him a freak of nature.

    2. Opposites Attract: TRUE.

    Rationale: How else would a short blonde Wiccan end up with a giant brunette agnostic?

    3. Young love doesn't last: FALSE.

    Rationale: Okay, this thing started after my freshman year, and now two years strong. We're married by my highschool's standards.

    4. Absence makes the heart grow fonder: TRUE.

    Rationale: Half of our relationship has been long distance, and we're fine. Though... everyone gets annoyed at each other when you spend every waking hour together for a week. PERSONAL TIME IS GOOD.

    5. Guys should pay for everything: UNDECIDED

    Rationale: Okay, he buys me thing, I feel guilty about not being able to return the gesture. I buy him something or go half-n-half my mom says he's not being a gentleman. I let him pay for everything, then she accuses me of making him my sugar-daddy. Eh... mothers.
