1+1=3

According to Merriam-Webster:

Relationship:
1. way in which two or more people, groups, countries, etc., talk to, behave toward, and deal with each other
2. a romantic or sexual friendship between two people
3. the way in which two or more people or things are connected

Boyfriend/Girlfriend:
-a frequent or regular male/female companion in a romantic or sexual relationship

So, as I move into a new relationship, let's say one that is taking precedence over all others, I am trying to discover what the immense feeling I have inside is and what it is based upon. 

The start of a relationship is a beautiful experience, and to me a relationship is not meant to be the we are one, we do everything together, we can't be apart type of feeling. Rather a relationship is where 1+1=3. A good base is essential to a relationship, but most importantly you must remember to stay the person you are and bring that to the growth of what will ensue. To get to the sum of three... the two of you must bring so much apart that you create more that just a single entity or fraternal twins (ha). Instead, the ultimate intention shall be to become transcended individuals, succumbing to more than either of you thought was possible. 

Frankly, why am I speaking of all this nonsense? Even I am beginning to wonder. 
Well, I must say that regardless of sexual, romantic, platonic feelings, a boyfriend/relationship may arise when it feels right. When you find that soul, that for the time being you want to learn and grow with. Not to grow as one, but to grow as an individual. To learn from someone what you cannot find yourself (and this does not mean you are opposites!). And most importantly, to find that someone-who for a moment in time- can understand all of your quirks, awkwardness, passions, and still smile every time you walk in the room.
