Watching this video again helped me realize that what I thought had been confirmed as ‘man-fact’ for me, that men like to separate their one-night stands from the ladies they date (akin to a Madonna/Whore complex), is only a trend. Like any rule, there are the exceptions, and human beings, when you look at them long enough, are all made of beautiful exceptions.

The only commonality I can now find between my and the ladies’ stories of meeting our now-partners, was that it seems like none of us were expecting it, we were just open to the experience of being with a certain person. I think that when I freed myself from thinking about my now-boyfriend from a place of ‘courtship’ and neediness, and just from a genuine place of enjoying being with someone, I also freed myself from falling into the same emotional traps I set for myself in the past.

Love is something everyone has been trying to figure out for centuries, and I certainly can’t understand it, the only thing I know for sure is that it’s out there.
