Okay...relationships...
I don't know what's making me talk about this...
I don't know why I need it known.
Why I feel that I need to vent it all out...
Why I even think it's truly a problem...
It's not me talking about how good I am, Or why you should date me, or anything...I guess it's simply my 'erfect world' outlook...

When I am in a meaningful relationship, I'm told that I'm perfect, and I treat the person I'm dating so nicely, like the perfect boyfriend should.

I am not the perfect boyfriend. There is no such thing. I'm simply living up to the 'boyfriend standards' that I know I will never get. I'm using the 'golden rule' only with people that I date, not others that I encounter. My expectations for a boyfriend aren't nearly as high as my thoughts on how a boyfriend should really treat and act towards the person he dates. The main thing is, and it something that will come after time, from me, but not what I expect to get from others is...'I come second.'

Now, don't get me wrong. I don't jump into a relationship and right away say, I come second to you no matter what. That's just stupid. But I do treat the person the way I think they should be treated and respected the way I would treat and respect them a year into the relationship. Of course, there are some things that you cannot give right at the beginning of a relationship, and to pretend to give said gestures is fool hearty, but why wait to treat them the best you possibly can?

Be kind to them, be respectful to them, do what you know is acceptable at that time of the relationship, not what's simply 'good enough.'

Now, this is the way that I try to treat those I date. This is how I handle my relationships. And since relationships are not perfect, of course, there are times when this entire explanation is very difficult to do, but even in those times, I do my best to stay to it...

Now, that was my explanation of how my 'erfect world' would be if everyone did that...

I don't expect it, or even look for it. But I wish for it...as I'm sure anyone who reads this probably wishes of their own relationships.

And this ends my...not rant...but my something...
