What's your favorite memories of being in a relationship?

[Sparticus]

For me, hugging, holding hands, watching a movie together, talking, going to a garage sale, teasing each other, helping each other, being there for the other person, hiking, camping [cabins are cool now that I'm older] and watching lightening bugs, butterflies & sunsets together.

 

[Sparticus]

Sharing life together, having secrets between the two of you and saying good night to each other. Also waking up next to the one you love.

And getting it on....

For me it was overall not worthwhile, but there were some good times. Aside from the major differences like socialness, honesty, spending habits, work and responsibility.... my ex and I did have a lot of similar smaller interests. Exploring back roads. Camping away from people. Picking spring cleanup trash piles. Having a wood fire. Dropping ladybugs into candles and watching their wings pop. And getting it on was the best I'd ever had. And she had the skin picking quirk like me.

Watching a VCR/DVD movie in bed with her laying on your chest So cozy....tonight I watched the ultimate*** chick flick "Thelma and Louise" for the 5th time.

***got some good guy action/actors in it...

Taking my girlfriend out for ice cream at a place with a million different toppings and being in public without anyone really knowing. I only have good memories of girls, strangely enough.

for me was the idea of have a best friend always around "all the time",the laughs, his eyes (even when i couldn't look at them some times), the hugs, walk in public places feeling that specific kind of safety while holding his hand (i'll miss this the moust)

I'd say mine is the warm fuzzy feeling of being with my partner.
Although I've given up on relationships, I must admit that part of me still misses that.

To be honest, it's usually when I leave them.

Having someone to laugh with...that was from my real relationship. The best memories from the "relationship" that was mostly just sex and not really going anywhere have to do with...sex.

 

[Berianireth]

Many of my memories of the relationship I was in are not very nice... I only realized in hindsight that the person wanted to be with someone that had no validity as their own person.
That's probably not the best way of putting it. At the start of things though we had some really amazing spontaneous moments that I remember vividly... it was Summer and he worked late at night, so I have all these images of sunsets and balmy nights to think back on from time to time.

You sound an awful lot like me Sparticus.

Dislike. Hang in there, MY hope for you is that you find a Healthy relationship that shows you the positive things about partners. The first should be friendship.

 

[Stacey]

Thanks Peace. Being single makes life much easier for me though. I always know where I stand.

 

[Cerulean]

Feeling like we'd merged into one person when ... sex

Sometimes Easy is good, but there may come a time when it is not what you want. Remember that life just happens. It might be a good idea to prepare for the unexpected, just in case. Start thinking about what you might want, should such a thing come your way. I am sure that a lady such as yourself will have multiple chances at a relationship.
I have learned so much in my years of relationships, I wish I could share more of it to help others. Feel free to ask anytime, or message me if you would like. It is good to have information and experience to choose from, and the more the better.
Good Luck

All the moments before I found out about their hidden agendas, or how they truly felt about me.

Doing something thoughtful, like getting her a gift or a card I knew would really speak to her. Or saying something funny that I knew she would love, and she did (and after we got phones, sending a funny text that would get an "LMFAO!!!!!" in response--that was the best reaction). Inside jokes that only we would get.

Discovering how to unleash my passionate side. Figuring out new sexual techniques to drive her crazy. Spooning followed by sleepy morning sex on a weekend. When she would lie on me and bury her face in the crook of my neck. Feeling my skin against hers. Combing her hair. Massaging her back after a long day at work.

Watching movies and discovering new TV shows to marathon together. Going on trips and discovering we travel well together. Having the funnest day ever at Disney World. How beautiful she looked with a flower in her hair, and how divine the air smelled as we sipped rum together on a balcony in Waikiki.

How she'd put so much effort into making a delicious dinner to show she loved me.

Can you tell we just split up and it'll be a long while before I'm over her?

These are the memories I would prefer to carry forward. I'll learn my lessons from the bad ones, but these ones help keep me optimistic.

I think of the few good memories from the one relationship ive been was being able to be around someone and they see the real you not a mirror( eh that probably makes no sense..what i mean by that is with how i am if you want a monster then a monster is what you get,want a fool? Then fool i am so on and so forth.)

 

[wyverary]

The fact that their parents absolutely LOVED me.
