THE socks drawer

Rate: 3 Flag



 

What is LOVE?..

How can I know he is still in love with me?..
How long would love last? .....
As much as relationships are amazing to be in, they can also be catastrophic.  There are multiple signs that gives you signals your relationship is collapsing or is in best shape. (NO! Changing your status 'I LOVE YOU!" is not of them!) 

If  signs are really bad!!! 
Can we avoid tragic end? ... Can we put aside our insecurities and jealousies? Or just let it go till our loves deteriorate and die..

I don't know!!! I'm not an expert on this "LOVE' subject. I learned as I went along. I will tell what I know. It doesn't mean it works for every couple.

Yes I'm in love! Brian is my first boy friend. Now! He is my husband actually.
It has been over nine years we have been together. We had good days and bad days.

Have I ever been worried if our relationship could end?...
Or Have I ever tested his feelings and royalties?.... 
Or Have I ever been scared there would be a possibility he would leave me?....

YES! YES! & YES! Many many times! How couldn't I?
I guess all come with territory. I learned to find answers to my concerns in our relationship. I followed the signs. Before I met him I felt empty even if I slept with who ever I wanted to. There are so many signs I could see if our relationship is on the right path or going down to drain. I'm sure every couple have these signs to keep the relationship on the right track.


Keep this between us! :)  My biggest sign is THE socks drawer. No kidding! This is not a funny, silly Z joke! The socks drawer always reminds me how deep our love is. 
Let me explain! ---

When we moved in together like 8 years ago. We merged our socks and put in one drawer before we had joint accounts and even before we put ring on our fingers.
 Not that we wear the same size socks. On the contrary our sizes are totally different. I wear size 8 he wears size 10 (Yeah! He is big! Tee hee hee!) 
Something about using the same socks even if they don't fit properly make me think that we can sacrifice and meet at the middle way.  Some day he wears smaller socks. His feet barely fit in them. Other day I wear bigger socks. My feet swim in them The worst While I walk they get loose in my shoes. But we both make it work and smile.

I love our socks drawer. Every morning I open the socks drawer, I can literally hear Brian telling me 'I LOVE YOU". Every time I reach that drawer I remember how I'm proud to love him. I know as long as we keep the socks drawer, we will be together.  Our socks drawer is our love drawer where we put our love in. It is pure, real and vulnerable. Nobody can touch our love but us...

thats sweet. I just ask aaron to say I love you or hug me, but sharing socks seems so much more intimate. Course he steals my socks and stretches them out all the time, but thats different he does it because he is just too lazy to find his own.
I usually go and steal Barbra socks, so she can blame Aaron!! Teeheehee! What?

;D

Z...I really loved this. I love your Sock drawer. It's a beautiful metaphor for the love you and Brian have. And I get it. No joke. The simplicity of the sock drawer and that you have different shoe sizes but share your socks. There's a ton of marital wisdom in this post and I'm going to pass it on. Happy spring to you both.
