The feeling of having the RIGHT person next to you is really hard to describe in words...
You know that feeling you get, when you and your loved one are together, alone, right? Maybe they have the windows down and are driving into the unknown. You can't wait for them to arrive. Every part of this journey of yours is fun. Your mouth hurts from laughing, which reminds you of the sincere laughter from your childhood. You don't want it to end. The beauty of these perfect days is that you don't even think about the bad outcome of your relationship. It's as if your brain allows you to indulge in all possible situations, as if it transports you to some kind of ecstasy where real life doesn't exist.
No, it's not the feeling you get on the best first date. Sure, those can be epic too, but they pale in comparison sweet harmony, which permeates your every interaction. They revolve around each other like magnets with opposite poles, the frequency and persistence of your conversations is like a steady inhalation and exhalation. It's just the two of you, that's who you are! The person next to you is seamlessly involved in your rhythm, both of you exist in this quiet rhythm of a well-known melody.
They revolve around each other like magnets with opposite poles, the frequency and persistence of your conversations is like a steady inhalation and exhalation.Conversations are simple, easy for you, but it is the silence that speaks the truth. You welcome your journey with open arms, no matter what it brings. Maybe they're just going home together or going out to dinner. Your partner sees the unfinished part of the meal on your plate and eats it without question. This is the one subtle homeliness you never dreamed of. Your legs are gently touching, but neither of you are trembling. Your limbs are pieces of a puzzle that you have put together many times, and each time they fit together perfectly.
Of course, not everything is always perfect. You're at work, you're having a rough day... Maybe you meet for a drink, but your bad mood detracts from the symbiosis of your interactions. What is important in these moments is not the reflection of your feelings, but how easily and quickly your interaction returns to balance. You feel your shoulders relax and allow the emotions to bring you back to center. Wordlessly, you feel his palm slide over yours, making your heart race. The space between you becomes electrified and takes you into the present.
How long will it be like this? It can be just a day, even just an hour, but for some it lasts a lifetime. You don't think about betting on time, because when you're with this person, you don't think about it at all. Minutes can last hours and hours, and days can fly by without you even noticing. For a moment you think about the person you see in front of you. A smile spreads across your face and you hear the familiar melody again. Your melody.
