It was pretty late one night and I was hungry. I usually stop eating at a certain time because eating late affects my sleep. Anyway, I threw my hands up in defeat and caved in.
That night as we snacked, my roommate and I laughed about how we could careless about the fear of eating late at night and gaining weight. We did not have anyone to really impress.
I marinated on that thought for bit. Why do we feel we need to look good for someone else?
I came up with the following:
When you love someone, there is something really romantic about wanting to look good for them.
It has nothing to do with ownership, or being beneath them or anything negative like that.
You simply think they are really great and you want to be sexy for them. You want to show them how proud you are to have them and you want them to be proud to have you.
I think it can be and is as simple as that. There are other variables that can make it complicated, but in a healthy relationship I think it can be that simple.
Cheers,
Shay
